@greenprogressve Should they not be asked to step down? Imagine if it was reform and they had called Lammy a name,the left would be apoplectic

Elected Lewisham Green Councillor Hau-Yu Tam should apologise for using the term “coconut” to describe a politician of colour.
Rachael Burford@RachaelBurford
A Green councillor who once branded David Lammy a ‘coconut’ has been handed a top job in Lewisham council’s new cabinet. Hau-Yu Tam was made cabinet member for “sanctuary and healing” last night.

@Jura_sik @Heccles94 Back in the day workplaces had subsidised/ cheap canteens for their workers so its not a new thing
English
@Heccles94 Not just drinking. The whole subsidised food/bar thing. Have cafes/restaurants (MP's gotta eat) in there, but pay full prices. No expenses either.

@andy4makerfield @AndyBurnhamGM The Stafford hospital scamdal happened on your watch as Health Minister ,shameful

🚨 This is massive.
After years of injustice, the first arrest has been made in the Bickershaw waste dump scandal.
@AndyBurnhamGM called it out, and now those responsible are being brought to book.

@EdwardJDavey Here we go again,Ed Bafoon Davey and his Trump derangement syndrome ,you are obsessed

Trump & Vance need to stop meddling in British politics and fix their own country.
Here’s a message back from the UK: we don’t want your division, conspiracy politics or MAGA culture wars. And we don’t want unarmed civilians shot in our streets.
Britain is better than that.

@JohnSlinger @RachelReevesMP I say Rachel the Labour government is useless what ho.The British values have been diluted anyway with an influx of foreigners

Good for you @RachelReevesMP in replying to a heckler and reminding him that a key British value is good manners.

@VictoriaHa50399 @10DowningStreet Because airlines have refused to use aircraft to deport illegals en masse for fear of the far left boycotting.This way they can sneak them on hoping nobody would notice
English
@10DowningStreet WHY are you USING British HOLIDAY FLIGHTS to deport violent FOREIGN RAPISTS?
This criminal was dragged onto WIZZ Air flight w95729 SCREAMING & SPITTING at British FAMILIES with CHILDREN!
Flight W95729 was from Gatwick to Turkey.
WHY are YOU doing THIS to BRITISH FAMILIES?
English
NEW: UK net migration has fallen 82% in the last three years.
We are delivering a secure Britain.
English
@TChugster @10DowningStreet @Keir_Starmer Why should people go through the rigmarole of applying legally,when they can see people arriving illegally by boat.Makes the whole notion of having a border a farce if its not going to Policed
English
This is trying to pull the wool over the publics eyes.
Net migration does not include illegal migration.
All this means is there are fewer migrants coming here legally.
This doesn’t mean there are fewer illegals coming on small boats that has increased 200% under this Labour government.
The is pure gaslighting
English
@ShabanaMahmood Strange this removal figure seems to have remained the same for the past 6 months it never seems to increase
English
Removals are 41% higher under this Labour Government.
There is no place in our country for those who come here illegally or break our laws.
English
@Number10cat Now Labour and Khan know about it. Will they evict whoever is in the property and take it back to let out to a family in need? I suspect not gutless Starmer will say nothing

The latest episode of everyone's favourite show: Things that Bobby Jenrick didn't do anything about when he was in government that are suddenly very important

Why on earth does the First Lady of Sierra Leone get a council flat in London? @reformparty_uk would boot her out and give it to a homeless veteran. Our people must come first. Always.
English
@Number10cat Perhaps he did t know the first lady of Sierra Leone had a council house.Perhaps it's only since Labour came to power she has decided to play the system
English
@RhonddaBryant We are buying dirty Russian oil from India ,we should be sanctioning India for buying Russian oil.
Seems Labours morals have gone out the window to try and get people's vote
English
This is a flat out lie. We haven’t lifted Russian sanctions. In fact we’re introducing the sanctions you failed and refused to introduce
Andrew Griffith MP@griffitha
Lifting Russian sanctions is an immoral decision. All whilst Labour refuse to use our own North Sea oil and gas resources. The British people have backed Ukraine since the invasion. This terrible Government are now selling them out.
English
@RachelReevesMP Strange that because whe. The Concervatices cited the war in Ukraine as affecting our economy Labour said that was t the problem.
Why are we importing dirty Russian oil?
English
The war in Iran is pushing up prices at the pump, so we're stepping in.
We are extending the 5p fuel duty cut until the end of the year- keeping costs lower for millions of drivers.
We have the right economic plan to protect households and build a stronger Britain.

@lukejcr Eh ? What did he say that was directly related to her being a woman?
English
Labour: tackling violence against women and girls.
Reform: would dish out peerages for shouting at women in the street.
Grim.
Zia Yusuf@ZiaYusufUK
Could this legendary gentleman please get in touch. A future Reform government would like to give him a peerage for this outstanding public service. He can do similar to all the crooks currently sitting in the House of Lords!

@GriftReport Saying about nationalists amd criticising a March called Unite the Kingdom ,the clue is in the title.Streetimg needs to look at all the flags of the United kingdom displayed on the March

Wes Streeting displays here just how out of touch himself and Labour really are with how people of the UK.

Good on Rachel Reeves, our elected politicians shouldn’t take abuse of this kind lying down.

@daveatherton @LBC The Islamification the caller is on about,Halal meat has become widespread without being clearly labeled is a simple one.Praying in the street when there are Mosques ,is two fingers up to the rest of us
English
It looks like the danger of radical Islam penny has dropped even with the wet liberals, "which is a threat to this country," like @lbc's Shelagh Fogarty.
Caller Ruby says Islam poses a danger to women & mentions burkas & niqabs & Shelagh believes the subject is up for debate.
Islam being a religious & political systems is an ideology.

@Alpine_Hermit @afneil I thought most of our oil came from America and Norway,the problem seems to be we have closed our refinerys who made aviation fuel because of the green lunacy.
We are Importing Russian oil via India who refine it for aviation fuel.
We should be refining our own and punishing Indi
English
.@afneil In plain English, the UK and Russia have got themselves into such a tight spot that they never entirely switched off Russian oil, and if they do, they will end up a significant part of their aviation business because there aren’t enough other supplies because of Iran war.
This is really simple. It’s a sheet show, but are we going to switch off aviation instead of CONTINUING the purchase of Russian oil?
English
IN plain English: we’re going to send a ton of money to the warmongering Kremlin regime for fuel while refusing further exploitation of our own oil and gas in the North Sea. Brilliant.

@GyllKing @Matthew58392631 And if the top up benefits were not available,would these people still work for a pittance or would they seek better paid employment? Tesco wouldn't be able to employ anyone and would put the wage up ,perhaps benefits aren't the answer
English
@Matthew58392631 Tesco has in the region of 240,000 shop floor staff. Industry & union data puts the number of those workers on post time contracts between 70 & 90%. It is a business model that relies on benefits to be profitable.
English
Tesco make £3 billion plus profits and yet nearly ALL of their shop floor staff are in receipt of universal credit. Shareholders and profits directly subsidised by the taxpayer.
Tescos are the benefit scroungers.
How hard can it be to outlaw this?

@andy4makerfield I wonder which Labour donor is paying for this campaign,sorry office administration as it will appear on the declarations
