I love a bit of hindsight.
The last week has been one of Keir Starmer’s best weeks.
I totally support him.

Man of the people #NigelFarage. Happy, Clacton voters? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
The right celebrating Trumps latest put down of Starmer….
Salivating at a peadophile trashing a democratically elected PM because we won’t do exactly what he wants us to do is not a good look for Tories and Reform…
However this from Polanski is also utterly ridiculous
Myth : "There Are No Nazis Anymore"
Actuality: Another UK Nazi Terrorist stopped before a planned mass killing.
Paul Page had 600 weapons, landmines, hand grenades, other explosives ... and of course, paedophile material.

there are like 50 people in the country who want the UK to get involved in the Iran War, one of them is Kemi Badenoch, one of them is Nigel Farage, and the other 48 are newspaper columnists
Farage is finally being seen for the grifter he's always been, he and Badenoch are totally out of step with the public over Iran and Trump and Starmer has been truly excellent in his handling of the situation. All point to a boost to Labour and a slump for Reform, good news all round.
Labour have introduced so many ‘green’ policies that help towards Net Zero.
Can’t remember the last time Green’s actually talked about the environment 🤷🏻♂️
Murton (Durham) Council By-Election Result:
🌹 LAB: 50.6% (+17.6)
➡️ RFM: 39.6% (-4.5)
🌍 GRN: 4.8% (New)
🌳 CON: 3.1% (-2.0)
🔶 LDM: 1.9% (-2.3)
No Ind (-13.6) as previous.
Labour GAIN from Reform.
Changes w/ 2025.
1. Thread 🧵
Freedom of Movement wasn’t just a policy.
It was a simple freedom: the ability to say yes.
• Yes to a job.
• Yes to love.
• Yes to a new life in another country.
When that freedom disappeared, something subtle but important changed.
A photo for everyone who thinks the UK and other countries should join Israel and the US in this reckless undertaking that is setting fire to the whole of the Middle East, displacing and killing countless innocent people, including children.
👉 www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/w...
According to YouGov, only 8% of Britons think the UK should actively join the US and Israeli-led attacks on Iran. Clueless Kemi and Nutter Nigel need to STFU or go and live in the USA where they'd clearly be happier.
FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?
If I was the US, instead of attacking Iran, I would kidnap the scientists who are capable of developing a nuclear weapon only months after the US had completely and utterly destroyed all Iran's capabilities to develop a nuclear weapon.
These scientist sound like miracle workers.
“Lots of criticism of Starmer and his lack of conviction on policies and positions. On this, he is full of conviction about sticking to the boundaries of international law. Faced intense criticism from Trump, Conservatives, Reform and the right wing press. And he hasn't budged”
Beth Rigby
If these people are found to be working for a foreign power, Keir Starmer will be personally responsible. Whereas when a senior Reform colleague is jailed for ten years for taking bribes from Russia, that is nothing to do with me.
Sir Keir Starmer said he would not join war in Iran without a “lawful basis” as he hit back at Donald Trump’s fresh criticism of him

Americans stranded in the Middle East say the State Department hotline Marco Rubio told them to call plays a recorded message warning: “Please do not rely on the U.S. government for assisted departure or evacuation at this time.”
Canada PM Mark Carney says the US and Israel war on Iran is failure of the international order.
"The current conflict is another example of the failure of the international order." "The US and Israel have acted without engaging the United Nations or consulting allies, including Canada."
BREAKING: “I am proud of the Equality Act passed by the last Labour government. We will always fight for working people. Compare that to Reform who want to go back to the dark days when people could be discriminated against because of who they are”

Nigel Farage looking embarrassed in the Commons
The face of guy who’s just been hugely publicly embarrassed by the Prime Minister.
I know that much will be going through minds in Gorton & Denton tonight. What ever you're choice happens to be, remember that there is much to lose. The rights which have been granted lately are on the chopping block. Please, Please bear it in mind. Choose wisely!

From "biological reality checks" to plans to scrap the Equality Act - what does Reform UK say about women's rights?
They began with lies to try and set the scene and pretend it was something it was.
They mislead people. They played dirty throughout.
For this deception alone, the Green Party does not deserve to win.
Please use your vote wisely to elect Angeliki, who will be a hard working Labour MP for you all.
Full Fact fact-checked him and found him to be lying to people.
But that did not stop them printing the material and delivering it to thousands of homes.
They deliberately lied, knew it was a lie and still went ahead.
That is shameful behaviour by the Greens from the start of this campaign.
3/4
I urge anyone in Gorton and Denton to get out and vote tomorrow to make Angeliki Stogia your next MP for the Labour Party.
She is far and away the best candidate and will work very hard to represent you all.
She deserves your support.
The Greens on the other hand started this campaign...

The former Labour PM Gordon Brown is right - don't vote for the lying snake-oil salesman Nigel Farage and his bunch of second-rate tories in Thursday's byelection in Gorton and Denton!
