The irony
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.
Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.
No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.
Worth a watch.

FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?
Trump's trying to find the guy who did this.
One of my favourite sides of politics/media.
I found the longer speech, the whole speech is so heartfelt inappropriate now as well. youtu.be/HfXmpJRZPYI?...
The ridiculous extension of the wait for settled status isn't about putting up barriers to arrival, it's about putting up barriers to integration for people who have already been here for years. It's agreeing with Farage that these people should be treated with suspicion - and leaving it at that.
Sitting in their bunker, licking their wounds post #GortonAndDenton , do you think the #Labour leadership will learn from this defeat? I'm not so sure...unpublished #cartoon #KeirStarmer #RachelReeves #BlueLabour #politics

"Let's be blunt. Let's be brutally honest with ourselves. When you lose an election in a democracy, you deserve to. You don't look at the electorate and ask them, what were you thinking? You look at yourself and ask, what were we doing?"
Keir?
obviously today is a huge embarrassment for Matt Goodwin and for Reform, which is something that we absolutely ought to celebrate, but we must also remember it's a huge embarrassment for Morgan McSweeney and Maurice Glasman and all the Blue Labour weirdos, and that's important to celebrate too :)
Gorton and Denton by-election result:
GRN: 40.7% (+27.5)
REF: 28.7% (+14.7)
LAB: 25.4% (-25.3)
CON: 1.9% (-6.0)
LDEM: 1.8% (-2.1)
Green GAIN from Labour.
The Green victory in Denton is the result which will have the biggest effect on Labour, far more so than a Reform win.
The blithe assumption progressives have nowhere else to go has been proved catastrophically wrong.
Can’t help thinking of this quote from a Labour minister, a year ago…
Fingers crossed 🤞
New bonus episode in which Ian explains how sensible urban planning spawned a loopy conspiracy theory and why it's catching on regardless

A lot of nose touching there. Almost like it feels a bit numb from idk, coke
Low-angle view beneath a long concrete pier at dusk, its columns receding into the distance over rolling ocean waves. The sky shifts from warm orange at the horizon to deep blue above. Wet sand in the foreground reflects the dark silhouette of the pier and the fading light, with thin ripples and a small patch of seaweed near the waterline.

Elon Musk (you may recognize him from the Epstein files) has just given up on Mars.
The entitlement is astonishing. Why should he be shielded?
Matt is a genius:
Palantir’s involvement with UK key services is obviously very grim whichever way you cut it, but seeing potential corruption in the awards process like this makes it all the grimmer.

Just dont see where they go now. Raynor? Simply, most of the UK just doesn't like her. Most of that is misogyny I think. The rest is classism. She wouldnt get elected as PM. Streeting? Universally disliked i think. What a mess
Im getting where you are. I had so much hope when Labour got got a landslide. A party rooted in a social democratic tradition now in power. We can all breath after the shitsow of the cons. 18 months later, attacks on everything I hold dear. The most vulnerable attacked to appease the "hero voter"
