Maybe he’s just walking a mile in another man’s shoes.
Or maybe he wore dinosaur slippers to work and got told off. Who knows?
There’s war and death in the Middle East. So who actually gives a fuck.
It was a teaching moment. Lily did not learn. The other dog is still in the bedroom.
I think you’re one of Us.
Dear Shabana, I notice today that you referred to me in your speech on immigration at the IPPR think tank. You said: “A party leader should not be on the beaches of France encouraging people to make a perilous crossing on small boats.” I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised especially after the hateful Labour campaign in Gorton and Denton, but this is just the latest in a string of lies peddled by a discredited Government who intentionally fan the flames of racism and division. When I went to Calais, I was not there to encourage people to travel to the UK. I was there to see at first hand the suffering your Government and successive Governments have done in demonising migrants in a pathetic bid to pander to the base instincts of Reform and the flawed strategy of Morgan McSweeney. As you will know, if you even bothered to research my visit instead of taking Reform talking points, I was there to witness the brutality of families living in tents in freezing temperatures. I filled water tanks and picked up litter. What that visit did do is confirm my belief that if we are to smash the boat gangs and stop the boats, we need to offer safer and managed routes for migrants to come to this country. Showing compassion as a politician is not a crime. In fact, we need to see much more of it. It reminded me of a young MP who in October 2015 spent three days in Lesbos helping migrants fleeing war-torn Syria. She posted videos on X, talked about handing out water and croissants to refugees and food parcels. When she returned to the UK, she wrote a very moving piece in the New Statesman. She said “we have to work with our European partners and create new, safe, and legal routes for refugees to get to Europe. We cannot abandon them to their fate, left as prey for smugglers whilst risking death on the seas.” She said “maybe we can make ourselves feel better by saying no-one is making them get on the boats. And again, the Home Secretary is not entirely wrong when …
Dear Shabana,
Let's clear some things up around migration and remember we're talking about people's lives.
Research.
As the laid off Middle East News Editor, I concur. Management eliminated the positions of every single staff correspondent and bureau chief in the Middle East.
Today, I agree with, and like, Ed.
Flights are cancelled. They’ll have to take a boat…
All those millionaires and billionaires that left lawless and depraved UK and moved to Dubai….
I guess he’ll Proscribe the Greens next and we’ll all be arrested for ThoughtCrime.
It feels like a deliberate big corp scam again dunnit?
This is amazing.

Are they using the Allistair Heath headline generator?
Would’ve been a worse winner.
The lesson Labour will take from this is that they weren’t Reformy enough.
I put the names of people I don’t like - like my husbands ex wife - into the Allistair Heath generator. I look at the ridiculousness of it all for a minute then - with a sigh - press delete, my soul purged of angst for another day. 🙏

I met a Skye Terrier at the Eden Project once. Her name was Abigail, and she did a crufts pose for pictures on request. Gabriel has good terrier genes. Very Handsome.
I was never lonely in the bathroom to start with….
A disappointing take. I despair when supposedly progressive parties attack other progressive parties. Much could be achieved with collaboration. Even more could be achieved by talking good people out of desperate Reform support, no idea why that’s not Labours goal.
This is up there with the Great Uni Fee Betrayal from Clegg. Shame on Labour for their power hungry weakness
Financial Times. Labour are now irrelevant here. Greens eye Manchester byelection victory
💚 Greens Vs Reform.

Stating the obvious for those with dim lights.
No I don’t. I’m happy to vote for a party and a government that will dismantle the monarchy. The last referendum was such a hotbed of lies and manipulation, the fallout created personal division which still endures over decade later. It’s a scar.
I knew I saw this somewhere before. Funny that it’s almost exactly what’s actually happening now.
Thank you
