I'd be OK with the Swedes building a nuke over this

@Alexarmstrong @GBNEWS @JournoZak ah the racist leftie charlatans, who present opinions (pretty shit ones). I work in academia and the 'training 'given by these people starts with your free to disagree etc, when the racism starts and you disagree they think everything they say has to be given as fact

TONIGHT on @GBNEWS 9PM Radical Marxist are infiltrating our schools (see Channel 4 “white privilege race” as an example). + A broadcast exclusive with @JournoZak on a town with a shocking 36 Turkish barbers and 14 vape shops.

@daisyeastlake Na his ego won't allow that

🟢 EXCL: Senior Green Party figures have urged Zack Polanski to consider stepping aside for Andy Burnham in the Makerfield by-election if the Greater Manchester mayor commits to introducing proportional representation Green councillors, activists and former party leaders have signed a joint statement warning that the party should approach the contest with “trepidation” The letter, whose signatories include Jonathan Bartley, who led the party between 2016 and 2018, and Rupert Read, a former Green councillor and author, says that Burnham’s election presents a “unique opportunity” to secure reform “In all reality this is not a seat Greens can win. It will be a straight fight between Labour and Reform. But it’s no ordinary by-election. Labour’s candidate, Andy Burnham, is looking to return to Westminster to lead in parliament.” “If Burnham will commit to backing proportional representation for the next general Labour election manifesto so that it is in place by the election after next, then on this unique occasion we don’t think Greens should run a full campaign against him,” the letter says Full read in @thetimes 👇 thetimes.com/article/16d6ba…

@PolitlcsUK Don't know if its the same Chris Kennedy but

🚨 BREAKING: Chris Kennedy, the Green Party candidate in the Makerfield by-election, has pulled out for "personal and family reasons" The party will reopen nominations this evening

@GBPolitcs At this point just upgrade the east and west coast main line to run at 150mph

🚨NEW: Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander is expected to confirm that HS2 trains will run slower than initially planned, in a bid to cut costs

@PolitlcsUK God the guy needs an ego check

🚨 NEW: Andy Burnham’s slogan for the Makerfield by-election will be "For Us"

@GBPolitcs @DailyMail Leaving like a scheduled train lol

🚨BREAKING: Keir Starmer has told friends that he intends to stand down as Prime Minister and set out an orderly timetable for his departure [@DailyMail]

@honeymoon250 15

9 for me!!! I feel confident nobody Has all 20 How many for you???

@GuidoFawkes Seems there's something he's trying to hide

ZACK POLANSKI did not even vote in local elections, according to the Times. He had not registered to vote.

@Maomentum_ Sheffield Brightside, safe Labour seat, Clive Betts was the first MP to call for Starmer to resign, plus he's been in parliament for a long time and is probably looking towards retirement

Burnham: I've got a seat lined up but you wouldn't have heard of it.

@policylaila @emilyhewertson Move up north we're paying 1,100 a month for a 2 bed flat in one of the nicest areas of Newcastle

Two men live in Zone 2 London. Both are around 30. Both sleep in a one-bed flat. But only one believes he has a future in the city. James was born in London. He went to university, got a degree, found a decent job and now works at a marketing firm near Old Street. He earns just under £60,000 a year. On paper, he is doing well. But every month James opens his payslip and watches a third of it vanish before he ever sees it. Income tax.National Insurance.Student loan.Then comes the rent. Nearly £2,000 a month for a small one-bed flat with mould around the windows and a landlord who only renews the tenancy six months at a time. Every evening James scrolls Rightmove looking at tiny flats he cannot afford in the city he grew up in. Even the cheapest one-beds near him now cost around £400,000. The deposit alone feels impossible despite earning more than most people in Britain. His parents bought their first home younger than he is now. James still does not know if he will ever own one. So he keeps renting.Keeps waiting. He watches friends delay children. People earning what used to be considered “good money” still checking every direct debit before payday. Now meet Shaheed. He arrived in Britain recently and was granted refugee status. He does not work. He lives in a one-bed flat in East London. His housing costs and council tax are largely covered through the welfare system. He qualifies for free prescriptions, dental treatment and eye tests. He does not spend his evenings worrying whether the next rent rise will wipe out what little he has left at the end of the month. And this is the part driving so much public anger. James works full time, pays a fortune in tax and still cannot see a long-term future in the city he was born in. Shaheed does not work, yet has more housing security than the man whose taxes help fund the system. That is how a city loses its young people, because they stop believing hard work leads anywhere. London has to become a city where the people who work, contribute and build lives here can realistically afford homes, raise families and feel secure again.

There’s ALWAYS a relevant The Thick Of It scene

@ToryFibs What happens after the vote tomorrow is anyone's guess tho

Prediction for tomorrow, Starmer loses the kings speech. Resigns later that day

@GuidoFawkes "Could the Lib Dems vote for the Kings Speech tomorrow" "No"

Chuka Umunna leaves No10.

@AVMikhailova He's there for Starmer to broker a deal with the Lib Dems in case some of the 90 MPs vote against him tomorrow and he ends up losing

I’m told China Umunna is here for a ‘routine meeting’ and not to see the PM

@jakonian I'm thinking the only reason he's there is that Starmers going mad and going to sack all the MPs that want him gone and sign some weird coalition with the lib dems

CHUKA UMUNNA HAS ARRIVED AT NO 10 CHANGE UK IS BACK FOLKS

@GuidoFawkes That's a name we haven't heard in a while

Chuka Umunna seen entering No10.
