@Peston Maybe he is finally growing some cogliones...

PM’s statement to cabinet. Nutshell: he will not set out timetable for departure. And he is, in effect, baiting Wes Streeting to challenge him The Prime Minister told a meeting of the Cabinet: “As I said yesterday, I take responsibility for these election results and I take responsibility for delivering the change we promised. “The past 48 hours have been destabilising for government and that has a real economic cost for our country and for families. “The Labour Party has a process for challenging a leader and that has not been triggered. “The country expects us to get on with governing. That is what I am doing and what we must do as a Cabinet.”

@RealDonKeith What do you know? This is FAKE NEWS

🚨This is a town council meeting in England not Afghanistan. I sh*t you not.

@jones71094 @Lina_rays1ya The Marshall Plan was a LOAN. The EU paid it back over more than 50 years.

@Lina_rays1ya Our bases and troops have been protecting Italy since WWI, II. The US helped to rebuild EU. Time to remove our assets. We will not be so friendly its not about friendship but the One World Order.

1)•Trump 🇺🇸: Give us your air bases to attack Iran 1)•Meloni 🇮🇹: "We won't give" 🔥 2)•Trump 🇺🇸: We will end our friendship with Italy. 2)•Meloni 🇮🇹: "End it" 3)•Trump 🇺🇸: We will remove our Troops from Italy 3)•Meloni 🇮🇹: "Do whatever you want" 🔥🔥 🔥What a leader, What a human being 🫡 Spine so strong She refuses to bow down 🔥

Not terribly ‘green’ 🪴 I fear!

@GoodwinMJ Conman

Zack Polanski is teetotal while wanting others to suffer the misery of legalised drugs He says he’s “against hate” while enabling Islamist sectarianism & antisemitism He wants to raise your taxes while admitting he “may” have dodged tax for 3 yrs Zack Polanski is a hypocrite.

@itvnews @Peston Because she is a tax dodging drunk

"No one seems to have the names to stand up against Keir Starmer... let's get on with the business of running this country," Deputy PM David Lammy tells reporters in Downing Street Follow latest developments: bbc.in/4nHK6tP

@Peston Sooner the better

Starmer says Brexit has failed. That carries momentous consequences. He is still a long way from committing to rejoin the EU, though difficult to see how he can achieve his ambition of “being at the heart of Europe” without travelling in that direction

@BBCPolitics Sour grapes

Jess Phillips' resignation letter in full bbc.in/4dHOZhV

@Peston Sour grapes and you know it

This from Jess Phillips’s resignation letter is devastating for the prime minister “Over a year ago I presented solutions, long worked on by brilliant civil servants that would end the ability for children in the UK to take naked images of themselves. 91% of online child sex abuse is self-generated by children groomed, tricked and exploited in to abuse. The technology exists to stop children being able to take naked images of themselves. We could make this possible on every phone and device in the country. We could stop this abuse. It has taken me a year to get you to agree to even threaten to legislate in this space. Not legislate, just threaten. This is the definition of incremental change. Nothing bold about it. The announcement was meant to be in March, I'm still on a promise this will happen in June, I've given up believing it. How many children were left without a safety net in the time we dilly dallied and worried about tech bosses? This is just one example.”

@jeremycorbyn And it was calmer when you were leader of the PLP? You must be loving all this. I bet you are stoking as many fires as possible. Looking forward to a Reform govt

The Prime Minister says his government has got "the big political decisions right". Let's go through them. The government chose to cut welfare so it could spend even more on weapons and war. The government chose to demonise the sick and disabled. The government chose to keep children in poverty until it was dragged kicking and screaming to finally scrap the two-child benefit cap. The government chose not to bring water into public ownership, not to tax wealth and not to implement rent controls. The government chose to arm Israel and participate in genocide. The government chose to let the US use British air bases for its war crimes in Iran. The government chose to let Palantir get its hands on our NHS. The government chose to scapegoat migrants and refugees for its own failures. Poverty, inequality and genocide. Those are the government's big decisions. And that is how this government will be remembered.

@MartinSLewis Careful. You'll be seen as a politician and people will trust you less if you do this

Very interesting read. I met Miatta a number of times when she was in the department for energy effectively as minister for consumers, she picked up the brief extremely quickly - and 'got it' in conversations.

@AlexDaviesJones Wonderful. We need a Reform government. Thanks for moving us closer. Please call for a general elwction because all Labour can do is naval gaze!! WHAT ABOUT THE PEOPLE!!!!

It is with a very heavy heart that I have offered my resignation to the Prime Minister.

@NoContextHumans Absolutely the most STUPID question ever. Who would you save? Your mum or your dad???

That’s actually wild

@EYakoby Unbelievable

This is Deputy Leader of the Green Party in the UK. This was his reaction to the October 7th massacre while Hamas was still massacring civilians. Unbelievable.

@jeremycorbyn @tribunemagazine Think you are describing yourself

Starmer's resignation is not enough. What needs booting out is the politics he represents: corporate greed, anti-migrant rhetoric and endless war. My piece for @tribunemagazine. tribunemag.co.uk/2026/05/starme…

@VividProwess She is FREE to believe what she wants and whatever faith she has! Question is, does she have the same opinion?

A British girl who converted to Islam says she's not brainwashed. She wants rewards in the afterlife because she wears a hijab. How does someone end up believing this?

@Keir_Starmer Your chancellor makes big mistakes. Puts you in difficult places. You cant talk right and act left. Streeting is a plotter that has built reputation ont he money you gave him. Get rid

We are a reasonable, tolerant, diverse, decent country. That is the real Britain. The country I love and will fight for.

Bolton's newly elected Green Party Councillor proving the party is still all about the environment

@joe022020 Hahahahahahahaha

We should have stuck with Boris, imagine if he made through to another election. Could have been great. Delivered Brexit against all the haters. Led us through a pandemic. He listened and tried to deliver for us, mistakes were made but he meant well, better than current PM.
