@benhabib6 I keep repeating a very telling statistic: 4 million graduates are working in non graduate roles. 4 million degrees that have not provided the outcomes that were promised. 30 years of debt that could have been a mortgage for 4 million people.

I’m proud of UK leadership on Ukraine - under the last Government, and stepped up with this Labour Government. But there is nothing to be proud of by removing Ukrainian flags and promoting Putin as a leader - like Reform does. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

One of the first decisions made by Essex Reform was to remove the Ukrainian flag from County Council HQ. Let that sink in. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I just don’t think there should be a leadership challenge. Keir Starmer has a massive mandate given to him by the British people at the general election. I don’t think anybody in the Cabinet has a right to try to overturn that. I still hope there won’t be a leadership contest. If there is, it’s probable that Keir will stand himself and in which case, I’d be in his camp. What we need now is continuity. We need Labour to deliver on their manifesto. We haven’t even been two years into this government. telegraph.co.uk/gift/d0332ac86…

I think it’s the worst thing Labour could do right now, there’s no reason to panic over some adverse polling less than two years into a ten year project - and some of what we’re seeing is more opportunism than panic - but if there is to be a leadership contest my first choice for the job would be Keir, that’s who I’ll back. The NHS has been battered for 14 years by Tory neglect and underfunding. Just as things are starting to turn a corner, Wes decides to walk away from a job he’s actually good at. Because he’s lost confidence apparently. Hard to square that with his talk of being proud to fight in the trenches with Keir at the general election. When the going gets tough and all that…... People around Ed Miliband have been briefing that he’s urged Keir to set a timetable to walk away - unhelpful enough to say it - worse to leak it to the press. Ed is seen as a potential contender, I’m not convinced. A few weeks ago,  he told the country he would finally break the link, the market mechanism that drives our energy bills sky-high in a crisis - the following week he announced the details and he did not break the link or even weaken it. Ed misled the country in my view and the Prime minister. Keir's top team should be standing behind him right now - and not with knives in their hands. How about some policy ideas? This whole leadership circus is a massive distraction from the job, not just at a time of global crisis but at a time when the people of Britain are making clear they want more change, they want to feel the change in their lives. The answer to that, some seem to think - is to have a new leader. That’s a delusion and often enough a conceit, sold to us on the premise it’s in the national interest or the party’s interest - when the truth is much closer to home. Labour has a job to do and a mandate to do it. Let’s get on with it.

Despite enormous global pressures, UK GDP Growth was fastest in the first quarter. Under Labour, the economy is getting back on track after 14 years of Tory chaos. We must continue to focus on delivering our manifesto commitments. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…

We don't want the changes he is making. It's a blessing for us all that he hasn't been able to achieve his goals as quickly as he would've liked. More two tier policing? More intersectionality? More anti-English racism? More Islamists? I won't miss him even though I know his immediate successor will likely be worse.

You’ll miss Keir Starmer when he’s gone spectator.com/article/youll-… I couldn’t agree more. Change, after 14 years of Tory austerity, is bound to take time before people begin to feel the benefits.

I don't have a tumble dryer. I had one once that came with a rental property. I'm not a fan but I don't begrudge other people wanting one. There's no doubt about their convenience so I have no problem if people choose to have one. I have a massive problem with the government dictating what people should and shouldn't be allowed to own.

Also thinking of joining the Labour Party not because I agree with all Labour policies - they are too timid on rejoining the EU- but because we can't have a revolving door in Downing Street every two years
Dr Craig Haslop@craigh_

Yes Ive done the same - I’ve joined @UKLabour because I support the stability they’ve brought or the country and I want to show support for Starmer to deliver the change which he won a huge mandate for.

Today the voices of division will be loud. They don't speak for the country I know, one that belongs to all of us. That's our Britain. A Britain worth fighting for. lbc.co.uk/article/keir-s…

Is Farage the only person in Britain that gained from Brexit - he might be. This secret £5m bung, which was first claimed as security money - is now described as a reward for Brexit, the economic Tsunami that stripped £150 billion from our economy and cost all us over £2k every single year since. He gets a reward for that, if we can believe this latest excuse for the secret £5m bung by the overseas Crypto man. We need to clean up our politics - latest edition of Babelfish, out next week, shows how.
