The Tories oversaw the degradation of UK gas storage capacity - 2010 to 2017.

Thatcher privatised the gas and oil industry - 1982 to 1986.

Thatcher closed the collieries - 1986 to 1991.

This woman is an idiot - 1960 to 2026

Particularly when military skill is not something they have ever been particularly famous for.

Surely it must be time to invoke the 25th amendment. He is clearly unfit for office.

Reeves's Spring Statement was empty, dull - and an utter triumph It was an absolute snooze-fest. More of this please

Finally, the thing we were promised in 2024: boring stable government

No half-sentient person would trust Trump with a barbecue, and here we are watching him start a war to distract from his weapons grade depravity & incompetence.

The Farage playbook is so Trumpian. When they win or come a close second (not tonight boyo) it's always 'a political earthquake' and when they lose, it's straight to, 'the game was rigged'.

Pathetic populists.

Joyful to see Goodwin and Farage having a huge wettie and rightwing media scrabbling around for credibility in the rubble of their cocky predictions and polling.
You don’t have this in the bag.We voted for change in 2024. That never meant hate-fuelled populism. It meant hope. You don’t give us that.

Incredible. What happened was a victory for liberal democracy. Who would have thought that Muslim women would vote for a party led by a gay Jewish man!!
