"The idea that leaving the EU was the answer to all our cares and concerns has clearly been proved wrong." Keir Starmer says that "wild promises were made" about Brexit. He adds: "the same argument is now being made about the ECHR"

👏 @Keir_Starmer: "How Brexit was sold and delivered was wrong. Wild promises were made to the British people and not fulfilled." "The idea that leaving the EU was the answer to all our cares and concerns has clearly been proved wrong."

Watching all the brickbats being thrown to pull this Govt off course shows quite how desperate the MSM and opposition are that they do not succeed in reducing the inequality in this Country. I don’t agree with everything but they are on balance the best chance this Country has.

It’s good to see how the public appreciate @RachelReevesMP decisions in the Budget. In the end it’s what voters think that matters not the hysteria from many whose ’crimes’ are on another level.
% of Britons who say each 2025 Budget policy was the 'right thing to do' Increase gambling taxes: 82% Freeze rail fares: 82% Reducing energy bills by £150 a year by reducing green levies: 75% Increasing minimum wage: 71% Mansion tax: 67% Decreasing biz rates for

“Time to admit the truth: Brexit has been an unmitigated economic failure” - acc to the Telegraph. Also time to admit the truth that this is the legacy of Farage and the Tories. Thanks to @LizWebsterSBF for highlighting yet more ‘staring in the face’ reality. #Brexit.
This is seismic. When the Telegraph - the house paper of Brexit - publishes a 2,000-word obituary admitting: 📉 Brexit has cut UK GDP by up to 8% 📉 Investment down 18% 📉 Productivity down 4% 📉 Employment down 4% 📉 No trade benefits 📉 No regulatory freedom 📉 No immigration

Sorry to break it to you Thomas but Tories predicted to win just 14 seats at the next election. That’s if reports of internal research carried out by Stack Data Strategy for the Conservatives and leaked to the Telegraph is to be believed.

The same people who convinced the British public to back a catastrophic Boris Johnson premiership are now pulling the same trick again with Nigel Farage https://t.co/5NdwQ6rtx1

We are freezing rail fares for the first time in 30 years. That's the difference a Labour government makes.

Ten years in jail for Farage’s “loyal friend” and former leader of Reform in Wales. Admitted his guilt once they looked at his phone.
Later today Reform's former Leader in Wales will be sentenced for accepting bribes to spout pro-Russian propaganda. A party leader betraying Britain in support of a foreign power. That's what's happened in Farage's Reform. https://t.co/FjbDGCsCzh

It was a pleasure for our own @HamishSandison and Arnab Dutt to spend time with the new Deputy Leader @LucyMPowell. Very encouraging to hear her desire to champion the Socialist Societies including Labour Business. We’re very much looking forward to working with you, Lucy!

Informative Bevan lecture this year given by another son of Tredegar @SKinnock. Labour’s 10 year plan for the NHS is built on innovation, good jobs, community commitment & fixing the social care crisis. Because health & prosperity are inseparable.

‘“Problems around media ownership and media bias have got worse” in his 36 years as a trade union activist.” Excellent piece from @nowak_paul in @BylineTimes on the impact of broader media bias on our democracy and how the BBC is potentially our only antidote.
It’s time for a debate about who owns our media and who has control over the algorithms that dictate the content on people’s phones. Read more at @BylineTimes

‘I’m a real bloke me, honest’ bingo… I like beer just like a normal person ✅ Carefully curated smart casual look ✅ Killer ‘bantz’ ✅ Weirdly, millions of people go the pub every week and don’t feel a desperate need to let strangers know on social media.

The biggest risks of bias at the BBC are in the boardroom, not the newsroom, writes @arusbridger. https://t.co/KjoeXu3sgJ

The BBC has suffered a week of mistakes, resignations and the threat of a $1bn lawsuit. But the biggest risks of bias are in the boardroom, not the newsroom

I asked Grok to critique this claim without disclosing that Grok made it. Interesting reply: "The "licence" isn't being fully ditched: The UK Govt has frozen the fee until 2027 and initiated a review of @BBC funding models, but abolition isn't confirmed. The claim treats it as a
