BBC News - Protesters jeer as Starmer arrives in Golders Green - BBC News bbc.co.uk/news/videos/c6… This is totally ridiculous. If any politician should have been jeered for jumping on a bandwagon in Golders Green, surely Nigel Farage.

The best speech in parliament for years. #darrenjones #r4today #bbcnews #gmb

A perfect ten announcements from our Labour Government in the last couple of days. Media still going to great lengths to shield you from such positive news of course. #DoingTheMediasJob #LaboursAchievements #FixingBritain

I know there is a lot of news around but can someone at the Beeb explain to me how a man they keep telling us might be the next PM getting an undisclosed donation of FIVE MILLION POUNDS from a Thai based crypto dealer (with a BS explanation about it being for lifelong security) is not even a news story when the man he wants to replace led the news for days over some glasses and Arsenal tickets?

Starmer gets a free ticket to an Arsenal match and the entire right wing media throws an instant conniption fit Farage gets a £5 million quid undisclosed Crypto donation made directly to his company, Reform U.K. and it’s wall to wall crickets from those very same media outlets

What is it that the Conservatives and Reform don’t like about a Labour government standing against unearned wealth? What is it they don't like about raising money for our state schools, our hospitals, our police, and to lift children out of poverty?

Star of the day @darrenpjones. Great speech. Excellent rebuttal of the childish nonsense of opposition. Loyal and thoroughly on top of his brief. Been in parliament for a lot less time than some of his (SCG) colleagues. But he gave them a lesson in how to behave in Government

Full-length Darren Jones speech on Badenoch’s stunt. In my humble opinion, Darren’s contribution to Labour has been significant.

(Setting aside the “carpet bomb” threat), I note that Nigel Farage and Robert Jenrick both missed the vote … that’s 25% of your MPs. Not that important to you then.

Regardless of your political beliefs, this is fact, not opinion. Nigel Farage was instrumental in making this happen by bringing about Brexit. 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿☕️🫖

Since the 2024 general election, this Labour government will have passed more than 50 Acts of Parliament, each of which works to rebuild the British state, so that it once again serves the interests of working people. These include:   👷🏻‍♂️The Employment Rights Act, the biggest upgrade in workers’ rights in a generation   🚊The Passenger Public Services (Public Ownership) Act, establishing Great British Rail – a publicly owned and accountable body to improve rail services and keep fares low   ⚡️The Great British Energy Act, establishing a publicly owned organisation to bring clean energy and cheaper bills to British consumers and industry   🏠 The Renters Rights Act, providing renters with security and dignity in housing by outlawing no-fault evictions amongst other protections for private renters   🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 The Removal of Two Child Limit Act, bringing 450,000 children out of poverty and providing security to working families by removing the arbitrary two-child benefit cap.   🌊The Water (Special Measures) Act, reversing the Tory decline in environmental standards and accountability in the water industry, empowering consumers and holding water bosses to account.   👮The Crime and Policing Bill, tackling violence against women and girls, anti-social behaviour and retail crime, whilst rebuilding public confidence in policing and the wider criminal justice system.   🏘️ The English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill, making good on our promise to give back control to local communities and provide mayors with unprecedented powers to deliver growth.   Labour promised to rebuild our country, and that is exactly what we are delivering. Lots done and lots more to do to restore pride in Britain.

EXCL: Police are assessing evidence about donations to Robert Jenrick’s campaign to become Tory leader in 2024 after a referral from the elections watchdog. Information was passed on by Electoral Commission, which is understood to have been investigating allegations that almost £40,000 of donations to his leadership campaign before he defected to Reform UK, were from foreign source in breach of electoral rules.

Here's an idea. Let's get #𝙑𝙤𝙩𝙚𝙇𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙧 trending! #𝙑𝙤𝙩𝙚𝙇𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙧

Do you think Rachel Reeves is doing a good job as Chancellor of the Exchequer?🤔 Repost after voting please.

Which one of these political parties do you think does the worst job running councils?🤔 Repost after voting please.

Do you think it was the BREXIT that Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson wanted that caused the huge increase in small boats crossings and the trebling of net migration numbers?🤔 Repost after voting please.

I was sceptical that any party political broadcast could shock me. I’ve seen it all before and so on. But I’m still spooked by this. In the end it’s all about the character of Reform, their leading members and the kind of things they not only believe but say. Do watch

So to be clear, the BBC and ITV are censoring a political advert because the Reform politicians being *quoted* are too offensive to be broadcast, and therefore their words must be hidden from the public? This is just the BBC helping out Farage again isn't it?

Do you think the Labour Party getting net migration down from 649,000 year ending June 2024 to 204,000 year ending June 2025 a 69% decrease that returns net migration to levels seen in the 2010s has been a fantastic achievement?🤔 Repost after voting please.
