So all Labour MPs are in agreement on the hugely unfair level at which means testing has been set, are they?
"Liz Kendall has said she sees “no tension” in govt over plans to make savings from restricting winter fuel payments to vulnerable pensioners"

@BeckettUnite @brookebay21 Guilty? Yes, and in thrall to a foreign power and that shouldn’t happen.

The public comment by Starmer that truly matters.
He gave support to Netanyahu 🇮🇱 for genocide.
“Israel 🇮🇱 does have that right" to cut off water and power from Gaza 🇵🇸
Starmer is guilty.
Don’t let anyone forget.

@NHSMillion @IsfreeJane When the labour HSec sound like the Tory apotheosis things aren’t great.

NHS staff haven’t been failing, they have been failed.
For 14 long years.
Wes Streeting would do well to remember that, and to be more careful with his language going forward.

The Labour government says that the Chagos Islands agreement has been welcomed “by all parts of the US system”. I think that they are in for an unpleasant surprise.

@TomLondon6 @liz_langfield @Keir_Starmer We have a PM in thrall to a foreign power. That’s not good.

.@Keir_Starmer denies Israel has an Apartheid regime
He also denies Israel is carrying out a GENOCIDE
The evidence is overwhelming on both counts that he is wrong
He knows the truth
He is lying
His lies are shameful and dangerous

Justin Welby has resigned as archbishop of Canterbury after a review revealed he failed to act on reports of abuse.
Welby said his resignation is in the best interests of the Church. Disestablishment would be in the best interests of both Church & state.

Anyone noticed that so many Bishops are now rushing to put out statements on social media and the ABC’s resignation.
“ Profoundly sorry”
“The right thing to do”
“Resignation to be welcomed”
“Lessons to be learned”
“New safeguarding regime”
Why were they all so silent recently?

@Wakethefitup @NNoseflute @UKLabour Ok but I do hold Labour to account for not addressing the state of services or in the case of WFA making lives worse.

Blaming @UKLabour & #KeirStarmer for the state of the country at the moment is like blaming the rescue lifeboats for the sinking of the Titanic...it's not their fault.
The TORIES stripped the coffers bare & destroyed the fabric of society...never...ever...forget that.

My take on Stephen Flynn ‘s announcement. The SNP has a history of dual mandates including Alex Salmond. In terms of work ethic & effectiveness SNP politicians could take a leaf out of Alex’s book. He donated his 2nd salary to charity. spectator.co.uk/article/the-sn…
