OMG 🤯🤯!!! This is enough to send SEVERAL Reform individuals to jail! Money laundering evidence superbly gathered by @Gabriel_Pogrund and @thetimes team. And guess what: Farage accepted more bungles and failed to registered. He knew what he was doing. This is mafia shit!

I’m seeing lots of posts from Labour MPs congratulating themselves on what they have achieved in the last two years but pointing out there’s still lots to do, all without a single word of recognition or thanks to Sir Keir for getting them back into Government.😟🥀☹️

The Daily Mail is arguing that Andy Burnham won't have a mandate unless he calls a general election. Oddly enough, I don't remember them saying that about Truss and Sunak.

I’m just a megaphone for @OneFinanceGuy who has done most (all) of the work on the Cottrell case. He’s very modest, give him a follow.

Jenrick claims Reform is the party "for working people" while Labour is the party for "benefits street"... Reform, with a boss taking personal bungs left right and centre and not declaring them...more like the party for the criminal elite. #bbclaurak #Kuennsberg

NEW: here’s *actual* evidence that Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party is accepting foreign donations via PayPal. Dollars, yuan, Swiss francs, roubles..you name it, they’ll take it. Laundered by PayPal into British £. This *cannot* be legal, surely?? Electoral Commission MUST investigate

Prime Minister, thank you for your service over the past two years. I remain convinced that history will judge your premiership with greater fairness than many of your contemporaries have been willing to afford it. What I find impossible to forgive is not your departure, but the manner in which it was contrived. In my view, the Parliamentary Labour Party denied the wider membership its fundamental democratic right to determine your future through a leadership election. Had your opponents truly believed they commanded the confidence of the Party, they should have had the courage to place their case before the membership and abide by its judgement. I remain convinced that you would have secured a renewed mandate. Instead, the voices of ordinary members were set aside, and the consequences have been profound. Members have left the Party in droves, not simply because they supported you, but because they believe their right to be heard was deliberately denied. Trust, once squandered, is seldom restored. Despite the relentless hostility from sections of the mainstream media, I never doubted your ability to lead Labour into the next general election. You inherited immense challenges, governed in extraordinarily difficult circumstances, and sought always to act in what you believed to be the national interest. For that, you deserve both gratitude and respect. I fear the Parliamentary Labour Party has committed an act of extraordinary political folly. Rather than renewing the Party's fortunes, I believe it has sown the seeds of its own defeat. I have little confidence that the incoming leadership will command either the authority of the Party or the confidence of the country. My expectation is that the months ahead will bring mounting instability, culminating in a general election far sooner than anyone anticipates. Should that come to pass, I believe Labour will suffer a grave defeat. The responsibility for that outcome will rest not with you, nor with the membership, but with those who denied the members the democratic right to choose their own leader.

You should have fought your quarter @Keir_Starmer Very many are extremely unhappy with @andyburnham and his underhand and disloyal route to power. It won’t end well. He is damaged goods.
UK Prime Minister@10DowningStreet

Two years on, we've delivered real change across the country. From putting more money in people's pockets, to improving public services and making communities safer. Here's a look at what we've achieved so far👇
