@hzeffman Great, yet another Oxford graduate.

Someone needs to explain to Phillipson that winning 'the war' is more important than a few scrappy battles. Damn, check out her ego. Still, pride comes before a fall. And boy, does she have a long way to fall. She's nasty.

This is so very true. So, we can now add hypocrite to her list of qualifications too.

Sorry, Bridget Phillipson – here’s why you’re not going to be Labour’s deputy leader…

Never forget that this woman has ripped up two decades of cross party consensus on education that has transformed English schools into the best in the west. She is sacrificing your child’s future on the altar of her ambition. And this latest move proves it.

@bphillipsonMP @UKLabour Uh, yeah. I had to go to school on Oxford's Cowley Road. So what? How the hell does that qualify you to run the country? Tell me how you're going to promote growth, to bring down the debt (£40k for every person inc babies in the country). How are you going to protect our native

@bphillipsonMP @UKLabour Funnily enough my neighbour is a 'Working Class' woman too. She works in a care home, earns the minimum wage, lives month to month, worries about rising food prices and winter energy bills You earn over £150k a year and receive tens of thousands in gratuities and donations

@bphillipsonMP @UKLabour Bridget Phillipson pitching herself as Labour’s “working class voice” is the kind of parody you couldn’t make up. She bangs on about being from a council street, but the second she hit Westminster, she swapped the accent for committee speak and the graft for party line waffle.

Wow. This aged badly. A Labour councillor who doesn't believe in free speech! Nor it seems do they keep up with the news (despite being an ex-political journalist). Sussex University received a £585k in March 2025.

@G0ADM It's a very Laobur thing - and quite funny that they claim to believe in meritocracy and oppose hereditary/aristocratic bases, whilst also running a party that's basically a game of who have you married or who are you descended from

Nepotism is fine if you're a Labour MP, who went to Oxford, worked for your mates thinktank & hasn't had a real job. Just so long as you didn't go to private school or send your kids to a private school... thats Labour stink of privilege & I can't believe the country fell for it

Hi @ByDonkeys When do you intend to start this?

Astonishing that in so wide a reshuffle, @bphillipsonMP is remaining as Education Secretary, given how she is deliberately destroying the bipartisan reforms which have been so important over the past three decades. She is by quite a margin the worst minister in the Cabinet - and

@bphillipsonMP What you think when you see a picture of Bridget Phillipson grimacing in the vicinity of a child?

Worrying long term hidden fiscal drag... The family income threshold at which English students maintenance loans start to get reduced is just £25,000/yr. It has been this level since the 2008/2009 academic year. We have had 64% (CPI) inflation since then. So it's been

It's nice, isn't it, the quiet?

Harriet Harman: “She [Rayner] is not a lawyer. It’s not her job to get the law right or wrong.” Er… I’m not a lawyer either and neither is most of the population, but I’m fairly sure we all have to stay within the law anyway, Harriet (who is a qualified solicitor).

Lets just move on now. No gloating from Tories/Reform/Corbyn. She messed up. End of. I think this has to have been a pincer move from within the Labour party/ government itself.

🚨 Projected result in Angela Rayner's seat: ➡️ REF – 41% (+16) 🔴 LAB – 27% (-17) Reform GAIN from Labour (17% swing)
