Wes Streeting takes aim at Reform UK...

‘I left the government because we are in a fight of our lives against nationalism, and it is a fight we are currently losing.’ Wes Streeting says leaving government has been an ‘emotional wrench’, and discusses his experience with the NHS. 📺 Freeview 236, Sky 512, Virgin 604

I am struggling to see how Sir Keir Starmer could not have given Wes Streeting's speech, word for word. Watch now on @GBNEWS.

'Can the Prime Minister explain why oil from Russia is acceptable but oil from Aberdeen is not?' Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch challenges Keir Starmer on why the UK Government appears to have loosened strict sanctions on Russian oil entering Britain in a major U-turn.

‘The Greens think their leader walks on water, it turns out he lives on water and doesn’t pay his council tax.’ Prime Minister Keir Starmer responds to Green Party MP Hannah Spencer, who criticises some MPs for drinking ‘on the job’ in Parliament.

“That would be breaking news!” PM says as he’s handed a note saying he said UK did trade deal with North Korea rather than South; “a slip of the tongue but an unfortunate one”

😂

BREAKING Sir Keir Starmer says fuel duty will be frozen from September to December. Plus a 12 month road tax holiday for hauliers. PM is getting ahead of a Chancellor speech tomorrow by announcing this at PMQs. Interestingly we had always been told that this announcement would have to be made only in a Budget. More now at @GBNEWS.

Thank you 🙏 to the People’s Channel @GBNEWS for doing a write-up on me for featuring on @HaveIGotNews and @ABCaustralia, amongst others, for shouting important questions at ministers during what proved to be a busy week in Downing Street. #GBNews #News #Politics Check it out 👇

GB News journalist Keith Bays vows to 'keep asking the questions viewers and listeners want answers to' gbnews.com/politics/gb-ne…

BREAKING Labour’s Andy Burnham to fight Reform UK’s Robert Kenyon at the Makerfield by election, both parties have announced in the past few moments. More candidates to come. This by election will be seismic in terms of its impact on Brexit and the future leadership of this country. Reform UK say they will pitch this as the “plucky plumber against ‘open borders’ Burnham”.

‘They are concerned about the fact that much of this information is being cut out.’ GB News Political Editor Christopher Hope discusses the extended retraction and delay in publication of the Mandelson documents. 📺 Freeview 236, Sky 512, Virgin 604

'All is not lost for this Prime Minister.' Political editor @ChristopherHope reports as the Prime Minister gathers his 'new look' Cabinet after the resignation of Wes Streeting last week, amid talks of an imminent leadership race.

'There has been the odd stumble... This Government has to focus on walking forward, not falling over.' Political editor @ChristopherHope reacts as Cabinet members arrive in Downing Street.

Another PPS quietly resigned:

LATEST from Downing St. Chief whip Jonathan Reynolds has just arrived in Downing St via a side entrance. “Will you move the writ today Mr Reynolds?” shouts a reporter. No answer. Watch now on @GBNEWS.

“I’m very worried about young people”, Shadow Chancellor Sir Mel Stride tells me as youth unemployment hits an 11 yr high. He classifies the young as up to early 40s. Talks of wanting to reduce interest on Plan 2 loans, currently 6%, when affordable. But the Tories picked this rate.

This is outrageous
