@maiamindel lol "Don't be ridiculous, we are not wearing black to mourn Queen Anne who died 310 years ago, as that would be stupid. We are actually wearing black to mourn Charles II, who died 340 years ago."

At a time when, quite astonishingly, we seem to be led by donkeys more than ever, these guys are oddly quiet.

Let's have a look at the Prime Ministers who left number 10 early over the last 10 years. 🐀David Cameron left because he didn't want to implement what the nation had just decided, despite promising he would. 🤥Teresa May left because she pretended she was going to implement what the nation decided in 2016, did her best not to, but got found out. 🔪Boris Johnson was kicked out because the Establishment feared he was going to implement what the nation decided in 2016, and had their man in No. 11 stab him in the back. 💷Liz Truss was kicked out because the Establishment didn't want her, and she was trying to implement economic policies the Establishment didn't want. ⏰️Rishi Sunak went to the country early because there was a danger Reform would win a later election and implement what the nation had decided in 2016 but the Establishment didn't want. ⚖️Keir Starmer is about to be kicked out because he was defeated by the party still trying to inplement what the nation decided in 2016. I'm sure there is a lesson in there somewhere, for the next Prime Minister, if they want last longer than the last six.

@timothy_stanley He’s doesn’t seem to get that saying that, whilst stood there a comfortably off leading KC, makes him look dreadful. Throw your family a few quid. It’s what we’d all do

‘My sister is a carer on minimum wage who didn’t even get sick pay during the pandemic’ Mate, you’re a top flight KC, surely you could have thrown her a few quid? Because that’s what working class people do, by the way, we look after our families. #starmer

Sorry, politics is a blood sport, it’s useless bleating about mortgages to pay. You chose the career, you know you have to stand for periodic election. It’s brutal but it is what it is.
Abigail Mainon@AbigailMainon

It's no secret Tom isn't my favourite person right now following a difficult separation But he worked his butt off, we have a young son, a mortgage to pay and he just lost a job he truly cared about. This is horrificly undignified from @reformparty_uk

Man I'm so old I can remember when Nick Clegg thought that a political project that would take 10 years to come to fruition just wasn't worth the energy
Nick Clegg@nickclegg

We’ve lost a decade since the Brexit vote, we can’t afford to lose another. Here’s how Britain could rejoin an altered EU - alongside our great allies in Ukraine - by 2036. Charles Kennedy Memorial lecture: youtube.com/live/AoPEjct-q… Also, an abridged version: thenewworld.co.uk/steve-anglesey… Thank you to the @euromove for organising and hosting.

@RhonddaBryant @StephenFlynnSNP How sad that you call a fellow Member of Parliament an "enemy". He is your political opponent. He is not an enemy. Your choice of words reflect badly on you, and on your Party

I know I’m not meant to say this because we’re obviously bitter enemies but I will miss @StephenFlynnSNP from the Commons.

@gazk996 @WalkerMarcus I think you’d be surprised about the cut through it had, and it rather served to confirm suspicions about him not having Britain’s best interests at heart

While there are many subplots I tend to think Starmer’s problems can be traced to two core mistakes: 1) The Tax Lie. He looked the electorate in the face and said he wouldn’t raise their taxes and then went straight in and raised taxes and everyone knew he knew he would do that.
David Shaw@David90shaw

🚨 It is officially panic mode inside Number 10. A devastating new secret report from Tony Blair's own legendary pollster has just been handed to Downing Street, and the numbers are catastrophic. Keir Starmer is now officially just as toxic to the British public as Jeremy Corbyn. 🧵👇

Much as Kemi seems to be demonstrating Tory tendencies, as long as dross like this infects the party there’s no way back for the Tories. Just join the Lib Dems mate. At least you’ll (finally) be intellectually honest.

@KemiBadenoch If you cleared out the dross from the party we may have a party worth voting for again!

You may not agree with me, but you will always know where you stand with me. Today in Billericay, a heckler tried to shout me down as I spoke about the normalisation of hatred towards Jews. I did not back down, because it needs to be said. British Jews are being targeted and too many people are pretending this is the same experience of other minorities. This lady implied Muslims are being similarly targeted. This is simply not true. Let's be honest about what is happening. Certain groups (in particular but not solely Islamic Extremists) are creating a climate of fear and intimidation that is normalising Jew hatred. I will never stand for that. Governments have spent too long hand-wringing, making excuses and hoping it would go away. It is time to call this what it is: a national emergency in our attitude, our urgency and our response. I will always engage with people who disagree with me. That is politics. But there is a difference between argument and intimidation. Shouting does not make a bad case good. It's done to silence others. And it certainly does not change the truth. The truth is that British Jews have been made to feel less safe in their own country. Our country. They are being singled out, threatened and harassed in ways that should shame everyone in public life. If we do not stand up now and stop this rise in antisemitism, then why bother saying "Never Again" at Holocaust Memorial Day? Because this is how it starts. I am not prepared to play along with the pretence that this is normal, or manageable, or just another example of tension between groups. It really is not. It is targeted hatred and it is getting worse. So my message is simple. Not here. Not in Britain. And not on our watch. We need to stop the hand-wringing and start doing the right thing. That means standing with British Jews openly, unapologetically and without fear.
