For a Government that got less than 34% of the public vote, and support from only 20% of the electorate, the UK Labout government is on dubious ground suggesting Mauduro deserved to be kidnapped by the USA for securing the same level of support. https://t.co/HNBkLhyLk1

The intentional underfunding of the judiciary is being used as a smokescreen for the authoritarian removal of trial by jury. Democracy is under attack from every angle in the UK. We must defend our juries.

@JakeBenRichards I’m a barrister. My first jury trial of 2026 is not taking place on Monday because of a lack of court. Yet more than 30 courts locally sit unused on Monday due to funding cuts. This is what caused the backlog – not jury trials.

Margaret Thatcher knew the US invasion of Panama in 1989 was illegal but supported it anyway. By refusing to condemn Trump's illegal attacks on Venezuela, Keir Starmer is following in Thatcher's footsteps👇 https://t.co/MbYHMYJKc6
