@PolitlcsUK He claimed that all politicians were economically illiterate (mostly true), then embarrassed himself by claiming that no amount of money would improve the NHS, despite the fact that back in 2011 it was ranked as the best in the world.

🚨 NEW: A voter says Labour and the Tories are not "fit for office" "I do not understand how out of 65 million people, or however many people there are in this country, we end up with economically illiterate people in the government all the time." #bbcqt

@SocialM85897396 "You can pour as much money into the NHS and nothing will change" Oh yeah? How come back in 2011 it was ranked as the best healthcare system in the world, then genius?

Laura Kuenssberg wonders if 'working people' are those who have "Scrimped and saved to buy a couple of rental properties". Only in your world Laura. #bbclaurak

@HalSinger But what if our markets are all controlled by cartels, Dr. Sanders? You're thinking about all the money you got paid to say that, aren't you, Dr. Sanders? How much was it? $40.. $50k Dr. Sanders... Dr. Sanders...

@ZoeJardiniere @ProfDaveAndress As that graph clearly shows, if you are genuinely concerned with the number of immigrants coming to Britain, then you shouldnt give a flying f*ck about "small boats" as 99.9% of immigrants dont arrive on one.

Question: To what degree do you feel that the media you consume's coverage of migration reflects these ONS statistics on the proportions of different kinds of migrants - coming here for work, study, family, or asylum...? (Asylum here includes small boats)

@s_m_marandi The West is not your enemy. We stand with you. The enemy is the corrupt, warmongering ruling class, both at home and abroad.

Fair play to @RBReich for articulating what very few liberals are prepared to, namely that while there may be a core of far right scumbags voting for Trump, he wouldnt get anywhere near the White House without the support of millions who feel theyve got nothing to lose.

I found out I was pregnant in the second trimester. I had no symptoms. The fact that women like this want to take our rights away is beyond revolting. Shame on you @JNampijinpa This should be up to medical professionals. Not Right wing BS Christian loving politicians.

@IsabelOakeshott The thing about political extremism is that its always people like Peter Lynch that end up paying for it, never the puppetmasters like you who wind them up into a frenzy, but never have the guts to get your own hands dirty.

RIP Peter Lynch, one of the UK’s first political prisoners. His treatment by the state was truly appalling.

@broseph_stalin Not to worry, Israel will make up the shortfall in workers by importing more Eastern European racists like they've been doing since the fall of the Berlin Wall

LABOUR MARKET COLLAPSE AS WAR EATS UP LABOUR FORCE “Israeli workers who might have filled the gaps have been called up for military reserve duty while Palestinian labourers are currently banned as security risks. Seventy percent of the quota is specifically set aside for agricultural labourers. Israeli agriculture is facing staggering losses in production and manpower.”

@CraigMurrayOrg Exactly this. A similar comparison would be with the way that leading Irish Republicans like Martin McGuiness and Gerry Adams were described in the 1980's, versus how they are thought of now.

Who Are the Terrorists? - I have a confession to make. When a journalist writes this it generally means they will proceed to reveal something they hope will actually show them in a good light or justified in some way. But I have a real confession to craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2024/…

To even think of cutting funding for the MoJ rather than increasing it, is so stupid that it beggars belief.
Sam Coates Sky@SamCoatesSky

I'm told by a government source there have been complaints to No10 about the scale of the cuts from 4 departments: MHCLG (Rayner), DfT (Haigh), Justice (Mahmood) Not all done via the medium of a letter In some cases, the interventions improved things a +bit+ for cabinet ministers. But largely the shape of the Budget - which for the large part is wrapped up tonight - remained unchanged.
