@The__Bakerman @MatthewStadlen Yep. Then claimed he'd been misquoted and had seen it on his visit to Border Command. No boats were recorded on the day he visited. He's a lying little toad.

@MatthewStadlen Is he the one that said the small boats were full of women & children ?

Finally, in Darren Jones, there is a Labour minister who is beginning clearly to spell out the story of this government.

@PreetKGillMP @GBNEWS @edgbastonCLP @birmingham_live @BartleyGreenRed @BartleyGreenB32 @QuintonLabour @Daily_Express @ExpressandStar @bbcmtd But it's not really a single appointment that's the problem, is it? It's a pattern of this stuff from the man who wants to paint himself as a man of integrity, yet seems to constantly be standing in close proximity to nonces.
English
I spoke to GB News about the Westminster obsession with a single appointment.
People across the country want a government that gets on with the job, cutting the cost of living, strengthening public services, and delivering real change.
We won’t be distracted. 👇🏽

Rupert Lowe is no supporter of women. His track record speaks for itself.
Only Labour will tackle violence against women and girls.

@SamJRushworth Your party has repeatedly put out the line that those objecting to the overreach of the OSA and other policies are aligned with nonces (while having a party full of them yourselves). Give your head a wobble.

I let myself down earlier by taking the bait. I apologise & retract. I shouldn't have called KB "vile". I should have been more precise about why I am so disgusted by her turning sexual abuse into a political attack-line. Disagreeing with her motion is not supporting Epstein.

@DeborahMeaden Jones is a grade A piece of slime with a history of lying. Not surprised you're a fan tbh.

I have a lot of time for Darren Jones… smart, clear.
Paul Wojtusciszyn@WojtusciszynP
Darren Jones has just wiped the floor with the opposition in the Commons proving the Tory motion a cheap political stunt+didn’t Kemi Badenoch look sour as did Stephen Flynn who looked like he was going to burst into tears after being reminded of the SNP record in Scotland.

@miriam_cates You trot out the same line at every scandal for Starmer. At least you're consistent I suppose.
English
Agree. The Mandelson saga is intriguing but ultimately a massive distraction. I want our political leaders to take risks - it’s the only way Britain is going to get fixed. Yet if we persist in trying to destroy them every time a risk backfires, we will continue to be led by unimaginative, uninspiring, fearful and indecisive politicians.
Matthew Syed@matthewsyed
The bandwidth sucked up by the Mandelson non-story is embarrassing. A minor appointment taken in what was perceived to be the national interest. Astonishing that the Westminster bubble is still obsessed but then tittle tattle started to define British politics a long time ago

@BBCBreakfast How was this horseshit allowed to be broadcast unchallenged? Two minutes of absolute rubbish and spin.

I’ve been reading this for five minutes trying to determine if the bizarre definition of freedom contained within it is a result of his adherence to a deeply sinister and frankly alien political tradition or if @lukejcr is just very, very stupid.

Ridiculous. Risible. Nonsense. 🚭 I mean “two-tier adulthood” about stopping smoking… are they for real? Age-based rules aren’t some new illiberal experiment. They’re how policy can save lives. But sure. Countries around the world already accept them for driving, alcohol, and plenty else. But of course the ASI miss that little fact out. You see, what’s different here is the harm smoking causes and how the law is implemented. Because it is LITERALLY about not exposing future generations to smoking. The WHO is clear. There’s no safe level of tobacco use, and it kills over 8 million people a year. The ONS also puts smoking deaths at around 75,000 annually in the UK. A “smoke-free generation” isn’t about taking rights away, it’s to stop people starting in the first place. Got it? Research from ASH has found most smokers actually start before they are 18. Also, literally anyone in touch with the real world knows that’s true. Another simple fact? You can’t get addicted to something you’ve never started. Something many smokers themselves say they wish had been the case. And it works. Countries pushing harder like Sweden, New Zealand now have much lower smoking rates than the UK, with clear health benefits to match. TLDR: it’s not “two-tier adulthood”. It’s basic, evidence-led policy aimed at the biggest preventable killer we’ve got. Ta👍

@EdwardJDavey Ed, you'd follow your master into giving away the Chagos islands in a second as long as it kept you within tongue range of his bumcheeks. Pipe the fuck down.

@campbellclaret Your attitude to this only helps to confirm that you're a piece of shit.

The conduct of a tiny minority in the House of Lords who have used every tactic imaginable to make sure the Assisted Dying Bill fails has been awful. I have long believed the Lords is simply not fit for purpose as a second chamber. This has cemented my view hard, and I imagine will make others realise just how ludicrous our legislative systems are. Sad day.
English
@kitmalthouse @KemiBadenoch People like Kit are the reason the conservatives have haemorrhaged support. This arrogant attitude to democracy while trying to position himself as morally righteous is what I expect from the Labour party.
English
The House of Lords has disgraced parliament. Their existence is based on trust, now roundly abused by a small group of unelected zealots. Time for a serious look at who these people are, and how they are allowed to govern us. The X trolls will be jubilant, but we will be back.

Two MPs kicked out of the Chamber for unparliamentary behaviour, purely so they can put a clip on social media for their supporters.
Appalling conduct.

And no one in Number 10 has thought to say, "No, Prime Minister, that's the worst thing you could do because it makes you come across as a child having a temper tantrum"? He needs to measured, not burning with self-righteousness.
