@simondale11 @CurlyClare01 You could argue that the fella who resigned has done that…

@David_Alcock1 @CurlyClare01 That is not an excuse to hand reform another constituency.

Green

@simondale11 @CurlyClare01 Maybe they support Starmer?

@CurlyClare01 Why you voting for a reform win? The greens are on less than 10% and don't have a hope in hell of taking that seat.

Private Eye gets this spot on - sad to lose Kuenssberg and Mason 😂

The House of Bruar is selling a range of fur products from foxes, raccoons and more. Fur farming is illegal in Britain and selling it shouldn't be allowed, but the Government refuse to ban fur imports despite huge public support to do so

@BladeoftheS Other racist piss heads, obvs.

Who the hell would want to integrate with these racist piss heads?

JCB owner Bamford: “You can’t get away with £60k benefit handouts.” Also billionaire brothers Anthony Bamford and Mark Bamford: Not paying a tax bill of up to £500 million. What greedy, Farage-supporting bastards.

Please consider signing this petition as I have done if like me, you are appalled at the amount of sewage tipped into our waterways to the vast financial benefit of others. Why would any country sell control of something as crucial as water? It is lunacy. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7626…

@EnvAgencyMids @EnvAgency We need to stop calling these manmade drains "rivers". Trees strengthen (natural) river banks, but they can be a threat to manmade (impounding) embankments such as these.

When I was a nine-year-old schoolgirl, my teacher asked us to write a news article. She told me, 'All I want to know is Who, What, Where, When, and Why.' It took me two attempts, but I finally produced a piece that she said satisfied exactly what a reader needs to know. So, let us play teacher with Chris Mason today. Let us look at how he manipulates and manufactures drama for the BBC, a service we pay for. Who: He cites 'friends and allies' of Wes Streeting, using anonymous whispers instead of a single official statement from a man who has neither resigned nor told the media he is standing. What: He describes 'jostling on the start line' of a race that does not officially exist, masquerading speculation as a foregone conclusion. Where: He sets the scene in a fictionalised 'expected race for leader', ignoring the reality that governance happens in departments, not in a journalist’s imagination. When: He claims a challenge is 'imminent' to create a false sense of urgency, despite no confirmation of any such move. Why: He does it to feed the 'anger factory' and secure clicks, knowingly trading national stability for media ratings. Journalism is supposed to inform citizens, not project chaos. @ChrisMasonBBC has failed my teacher’s test. He is not reporting the news, he is attempting to invent it. Do we pay the BBC so that journalists can play soap opera directors with our future? #BBC #ChrisMason #Journalism #UKPolitics #Starmer #WesStreeting #Truth #Accountability

‘You have done a better job than any cabinet minister of telling us the story of Keir Starmer’s successes.’ As Wes Streeting resigns, Caller Martin reminds @TomSwarbrick1 of what the PM has delivered.

Ah the old lie "nationalisation will cost billions". James Murry @jamesmurray_ldn you just told Justin Web @JustinOnWeb on the Today programme @BBCr4today that nationalising the water industry "costs huge amounts of money". I challenge you sir, prove it, prove a single word of it and if you can't or won't then stop repeating the lie for that's what it is, a lie.

Well, that Express headline was always going to raise a few eyebrows!😳 Starmer is responsible for embracing polygamy to appease Muslims, and so he's increasing their benefits?? That's the implication. After all, this "started in April", right? Wrong! 🧵1/25

Can everyone mad about boat taxes get mad about a designated nature site being bulldozed? This rare habitat doesn’t need to be lost forever. We can save it but only if enough people know about it! This should be a source of shame for Homes England but no one is talking about it!

Britain's largest bird of prey is returning.🦅 We've approved a new licence to release white-tailed eagles in Exmoor National Park. This builds on the existing Isle of Wight programme led by @forestryengland and @RoyDennisWF. naturalengland.blog.gov.uk/2026/05/13/sup…

@RepJackKimble We dont have a first amendment, nob.

I for one am getting pretty tired of Britain trampling all over the first amendment.

@arusbridger @TopNewsWorks Why, indeed? x.com/dense_evi/stat…
