@AngelaRayner Who cares, many people lose jobs. Remember inflation and unemployment. Well.. good! They will find something better to do. Now, with the job. Support #KeirStarmer
Our party has suffered a historic defeat.
Many good Labour colleagues have lost their seats despite working hard for those they represented. We have lost good Labour administrations and lost the chance for more.
What we are doing isn’t working, and it needs to change. This may be our last chance.
The Labour Party must now live up to our name: we must be the party of working people.
We’ve heard the same on the doorstep as we’ve seen in the polls - the cost of living is the top issue for voters of all parties. People have turned to populists and nationalists because we have not done enough to fix it.
Living standards are barely higher than they were a decade and a half ago. People feel hopeless - that the cost of living crisis will never end, and now they see oil and gas companies use global instability to post record profits.
Once again, ordinary people are paying the price for decisions they didn’t make. It’s no wonder that across the UK, working people feel the system is rigged against them.
Things can be so much better than this. Countries including Spain and Canada have shown that economies can grow and people can thrive when governments stay true to labour and social democratic values and put people first. We need to learn from that.
In London, we lost young people who fear they will never afford a home. In my patch and across the north, we lost working people whose wages are too low and costs too high. In Scotland and Wales, people do not currently see Labour as the answer.
We are in danger of becoming a party of the well-off, not working people.
The Peter Mandelson scandal showed a toxic culture of cronyism.
Decisions like cutting winter fuel allowance just weren’t what people expected from a Labour government.
For too long, successive governments have allowed wealth and power to concentrate at the top without a plan to ensure the benefits of economic growth are shared fairly. The result is an economy that does not work for the majority, with wealth concentrated in too few hands. This level of inequality, alongside squeezed living standards, is the outcome of a model built on deregulation, privatisation, and trickle-down economics.
But we have the chance to fix this.

Often (and erroneously) cited as "proof" of #alien spacecraft, this photo shows a lost trunnion insulator blanket drifting away from the ISS in Dec. 1998. The blanket was lost during an EVA on STS-88 and photographed on Dec. 11, 1998 over the south Atlantic (NASA# STS088-724-66)
@Kier_Stammer Never give up. Never resign, we gave you a 5 year #Labour mandate. Life is a rollercoaster. Trump holds to power under different kind of shadows. You shine. Don't leave us to #Reform
UK local elections 2026 are a sham. International community take notice. Zero transparency, zero information on candidates, just a list published on their websites 2 weeks ago. Ballots scanned a barcode against your id. Where is the right to a private vote?
@sergio_fajardo hermano, usted no tiene chance. No es presidenciable, no distraiga la opinión pública. Haga Patria, échese a un lado y únase al que le sirva; pero hágase de lado.
@Keir_Starmer We do not need to keep the Straight of Hormuz open in order to keep the price of oil cheaper. TRUMP must end this nonsense war. That's it. He proved his point. Stop the war. Else we risk another Ukraine. This is not 1945 it is 2026.
@Keir_Starmer Sir Sier Starmer, this war against Iran is Donald Trump's war. It is NOT our war. Don't send troops or get involved please ! No British lives can be put at risk to satisfy the Ego of a megalomaniac. No to War.
@RafaelValek Hola primo, te cuento que republica Checa está otorgando ciudadanía hasta la 3a generación a descendientes de padres Checos. Escríbeme en privado si te interesa y te doy detalles. Saludos. SCV
@Keir_Starmer I can't agree with you on this one. PM Starmer. No nation can deliberately and unilaterally engage in direct conflict with another nation. USA vs IRAN, same rules Russia vs Ukraine. Let's be clear, aggression is a CRIME !!! THE USA must abide by the LAW. NO to WAR.
@curiosityonx He discovered nothing. He detected signs that indicate a high probability of an exoplanet with certain characteristics that may be present in a given point in space.
NEWS🚨: Astronomers just discovered a planet, 146 light-years away from us, that might be the closest thing to an Earth's twin, and it could even harbor life.
Que Dios proteja al pueblo de #Venezuela. Este es un momento aterrador, pero la ayuda suele llegar de formas inesperadas. Sean perseverantes, mantengan la esperanza, soporten las dificultades, manténganse fuera de peligro, recen y mantengan viva la llama de la libertad.
God protect the people of #venezuela. This is a scary moment, but help often comes in the most unexpected ways. Be steadfast, hold onto hope, endure the hardships, stay out of harm's way, pray, and keep the flame of freedom alive.
