It’s remarkable that we now live in a country where Reform brazenly announce that if they win power nationally they will punish areas of the country that didn’t vote for them. Let that sink in, and make sure Reform never get that opportunity

Two days until the election and the choice is clear.
I want to urgently cut the cost of living, with lower bus fares and cheaper essential foods, and secure the fresh start of independence for Scotland.
Other parties only talk about stopping us. #BothVotesSNP this Thursday. 🏴

@DavidHenigUK Ha ha good on you Nigel, the lefties want them so they’re going to get them

Vote Reform for concentration camps. Utterly vile on any level.
No wonder Farage would be too cowardly to be interviewed between this and taking 5 million gifts from crypto wealth

Today we announce a new policy: In order to deport all illegal migrants in Britain, Reform will need to detain tens of thousands at a time. Migrants will not be able to leave these detention centres, and each will be held there a couple of weeks before being deported. So here’s our promise: A Reform government will not put any migrant detention facilities in any constituency with a Reform MP. Nor will we put them where Reform controls the council. And of the remaining areas, we will prioritise Green controlled parliamentary constituencies and Green controlled councils to locate the detention centres. Put simply, if you vote in a Reform council or Reform MP, we guarantee you won’t have a detention centre near you. If you vote Green, there’s a good chance you will. This is an important exercise in democratic consent, not just for our mass deportation policy, but for where the detention centres are placed. Given @ZackPolanski openly advocates for open borders, I look forward to their warm embrace of this policy. votegreengetillegals.com

Fellow Scots of all backgrounds, on Thursday we have the chance to change our lives once and for all. And to help shape the world we live in.
To choose a different path where we control where our wealth goes.
Don't let this pass us by. Get out and #VoteSNP.
No ID required.

A better Scotland is possible. You just have to vote for it. #BothVotesSNP

@Lewis_Brackpool It’s a great idea! The left love em so let them have em.

I may not agree with Green voters, but deliberately placing deportation centres in areas that vote against you as political punishment is vindictive and counterproductive.
You don’t win people over by threatening them. It’ll also put people in serious danger.
Nigel Farage MP@Nigel_Farage
If you vote Reform you will not have an illegal migrant deportation facility in your area. We will hold migrants awaiting deportation in constituencies that vote Green instead. You get what you vote for.
English
Vote Reform, or we'll put a detention centre in your area... so, basically a threat. Classy.
Party first, country second.

I believe this is called voter intimidation.
Or in Mafia terms, a shakedown.
Either way, both pathetic and illegal.

Isn’t it just great that we have a REAL statesman now?

@DPJHodges Detaining and deporting new arrivals is the only policy that will deter people paying to get on the boats. Why bother paying £1,500 to get to Britain when you'll be locked up and then sent packing? The Channel boats market will collapse within weeks.
English
One positive thing I would say about Reform's new policy. At least they're finally being honest about the fact they don't have a solution that involves actually turning back the boats at source.
English
I absolutely agree with this - 100%
If any Labour MP’s start playing silly buggers then we will not forget them.
We need unity do you hear, unity!
Be warned @UKLabour
David Williams@dr72w_david
The whole cabinet need to make it very clear before Thursday, that they all back PM Starmer, and to Unite. This country has had enough of conveyer belt Prime Ministers, and political chaos. Get on with the job, take off the gloves, & fight Deform UK and its Media Cabal #Labour
English
The reason why the media don’t report Labour success stories is because they don’t want you to know about them. They didn’t report Tory success stories because there weren’t any. But they were fine with that.
English
Small boat crossings down 42% in 2026 over the same period in 2025.
Fact, not feeling.
This is very bad news for the far right.
Also a fact.
English
No actually. I'm happy now being in a party with 403 MPs that's delivering on climate change, with an Energy Secretary in Ed Miliband who is doing more to shift us away from fossil fuel reliance than any politician since the industrial revolution.

Not just Labour MPs but almost all Labour members are calling for an end to the endless drama of leadership speculation, including by the media!
Pippa Crerar@PippaCrerar
NEW: Labour MPs are calling for end to “endless drama” of leadership speculation, with some warning that repeated briefings about toppling Keir Starmer are putting off voters, @peterwalker99 reports. “All people want is a government which works, and not the endless drama. We are in a very tricky global situation, and to have this never-ending conversation about who might have a certain number of supporters feels extremely self-indulgent,” says one MP. Worries are shared even among some who strongly believe Starmer should be replaced. “You can both think the PM isn’t the right man to lead us into the next election and that now isn’t the right time to replace him." theguardian.com/politics/2026/…
English
The major event of the next fortnight will be the King's Speech on 13th. May.
Watch out for a set of major radical proposals to be introduced by Keir Starmer's Labour Government.
Then the media will have real news, not gossip and speculation, to report.

While others are talking about stopping us, we’ve been focusing on Scotland.
We will cut the cost of living, make it easier to see your GP, and secure Scotland’s choice of independence.
If you want to make it happen, you’ve got to vote for it on Thursday. #BothVotesSNP

We’ve agreed with the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom to sign the Poland-UK treaty strengthening our defence cooperation. It will take place on May 27.

Tackling the costing of living, cutting hospital waiting lists, lifting half a million children out of poverty, wages are going up and new rights for workers and renters are coming in on Friday.
All good Labour things the government is doing, and there’s so much more to come👇🏻
