The sun was shining in Farsley yesterday! Great to be out on the campaign trail with our fantastic West Yorkshire Mayor @TracyBrabin. Lots of people were telling us they'd already returned their postal votes for Labour🌹

Some incredibly British vandalism. 🤣

The actor who ended up playing Joe Biden's body double for nearly two years will turn state's evidence to avoid jail time, according to sources close to the FBI's investigation. "The suspect was hired to stand in one place for ten minutes," said a Special Agent. "That's how it began." Follow @TruthGuardianQ Before he knew it, the subject was sitting behind the Resolute Desk and taking calls from foreign leaders. "A birthday party impressionist ended up the leader of the free world, if only for a few minutes here and there." Dozens of West Wing staffers were complicit in pulling off the ruse. "The whole building had to be in on it."

Funnily enough it was the assisted dying debate that converted me from atheist to agnostic - made me realise that atheism itself can take the form of an unattractively ideological and inflexible belief system with zero tolerance for religious worldviews.

Keir Starmer’s closest ally in Cabinet and chief legal adviser, Richard Hermer, led a witch hunt against brave British soldiers. British soldiers were put through hell. I have asked @NJ_Timothy to write to the Bar Standards Board to investigate the claims.

Starmer and Hermer Built the Machine Together. Now They Run the Country. In 2007, two barristers worked without pay on a case that would change the legal landscape for every British soldier who had served in Iraq. Keir Starmer and Richard Hermer appeared as interveners in Al-Skeini v Secretary of State for Defence, representing eleven human rights organisations including Amnesty International and Liberty. Their argument was that the European Convention on Human Rights should apply to British forces operating overseas. They lost in the Court of Appeal. They appealed to the House of Lords. They lost again. But the legal principle they had argued for eventually prevailed at the European Court of Human Rights, and what followed was the Iraq Historic Allegations Team, sixty million pounds of public money, seven years of investigations, and not a single prosecution. The soldiers it pursued were, in almost every case, found to have acted properly. Starmer believed in it enough to do it for free. Johnny Mercer, who spent years dismantling the consequences, put it plainly. Starmer had insisted on doing it for free. That is not the behaviour of a barrister following the cab rank rule. That is ideological conviction. Hermer's conviction, it subsequently emerged, was not without financial reward once the machinery was running. Documents obtained by the Daily Telegraph show that having helped establish the legal architecture pro bono in 2007, Hermer then used that same architecture to pursue Iraqi claims against British soldiers at £450 an hour, fifty percent higher than the only other KC involved in the group action. He set his success fee at the maximum level permitted, one hundred percent of his normal rate. The MoD's own lawyers challenged his fees as excessive and said he was too junior to command that rate. He is thought to have earned around six figures from the broader group action. The claims he was pursuing were eventually ruled to be deliberate lies. The soldiers were fully exonerated. Sergeant Richie Catterall had been cleared of wrongdoing by the British Army in 2003 for a fatal shooting in Basra. The Army found he had acted in self-defence. The legal precedent Starmer and Hermer established triggered two further investigations spanning thirteen years. A 2016 inquiry again concluded he had acted in self-defence and found a false document had been created to shift blame onto the military. Catterall was finally exonerated. He told the Telegraph he was gutted that Starmer had helped bring the case against him and that the Prime Minister owed him an apology. Starmer is now Prime Minister. Hermer is now Attorney General, appointed by Starmer personally, elevated to the House of Lords specifically for the role, chosen over Emily Thornberry who had held the shadow brief. The former head of the Army, General Sir Peter Wall, has said Hermer's role in the Al-Sweady claims was tantamount to treason. A former commanding officer of 22 SAS said Hermer must step down. The Bar Standards Board has been asked to investigate. Nigel Farage has reported Hermer to the House of Lords standards commissioner. The Troubles Bill that is now subjecting Northern Ireland veterans to the same lawfare is not an accident of policy. The process that drove Fred, a special forces veteran, to attempt suicide after his medical records were handed to terrorists' families was not an oversight. The machine that cost sixty million pounds and produced no prosecutions was not a mistake. Starmer and Hermer built it together, one working for free out of conviction, the other later working for maximum fees out of the same conviction, and now both occupy the positions from which they can ensure the machine keeps running.

EXC: Some of Sir Keir Starmer’s Cabinet are in secret discussions about the best time to tell the Prime Minister to quit and who should deliver the message, @theipaper can reveal 🧵 inews.co.uk/news/politics/…

Dear Labour MPs, Keir Starmer’s own words during partygate: “I also think that the pathetic display of Tory MPs going out to defend the indefensible is something that they will be ashamed of.” He is now making you all look pathetic by defending him. Call for him to resign!

Former Commanding Officer SAS on Hermer/Starmer disgrace —

@MatthewStadlen Starmer showed himself to be a plonker. A global laughing stock type of plonker. Surely it can’t get any worse…

Suspect some of Starmer’s detractors still underestimate just how tough he is. Not easy to be the country’s chief prosecutor or to take on the Corbynite wing of the Labour Party. He’s showed himself repeatedly to be both resilient and capable of ruthlessness.

"Wriggle room if the killings did not in fact happen." Those are the words of Keir Starmer's Attorney General, sent whilst dragging British troops through the courts. The troops were innocent. Keir Starmer's judgement is not.

Hang on, Philip Rycroft wrote the “independent” report on political finance rules. That “independence” was used as cover to justify limiting donations from Brits overseas. Now he’s campaigning to reverse Brexit. And we’re supposed to believe he’s neutral?

🚨Unreal! Labour Justice Secretary Sarah Sackman just told Parliament Sharia courts must be accepted: “If People Wish to Use Sharia Courts, We Must Accept That as Part of Religious Tolerance That is an Important British Value.”

@KevinASchofield Of course this is what to say when the opposite is the truth.

Keir Starmer Will Be Prime Minister For Years To Come, Downing Street Insists huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/keir-sta…

It’s now OFFICIAL. Shocking More than 150 individuals with convictions for violent or sexual offences have been granted PHV and taxi licences by Wolverhampton City Council. For years, people raising concerns were dismissed or attacked. Today’s figures speak for themselves.

@EdwardJDavey What other Tory political heroes do you have?

Margaret Thatcher stood up to an American President on the Falklands - bit of a shame Badenoch and Farage just want to suck up to Trump.

This school was pressured into deleting this video, what is wrong with people. For that reason it deserves a share, bless them x
