Do they think people have literally no memory of past events at all?
this is, all else being equal, easily the funniest thing the director of inside out could have said
The collective lunacy of the British right. So beholden to Trumpism & UK support for the West's forever wars that they have even more lost their marbles on the Iran War. To them the problem is Starmer not going along with Trump's war of choice. Not Trump. Wrong call guys. Again.
A reminder that all news is not bad..

Call me crazy, but I firmly believe that if all your life, your privileges and physical separation have shielded you from having to consider the needs and wants of people outside your socioëconomic class, you are not going to make a good leader to your people.
Absolutely fucking abhorrent people.
Israeli forces launching massive airstrikes in southern Beirut only hours after issuing an evacuation order for the over 500,000 people living there displays an utter disregard for civilian lives. We saw these patterns in Gaza - it cannot happen again in Lebanon.

2026 asylum reforms share core principle with 2022 Bill of Priti Patel
Why Starmer + Mahmood harder line than Patel
- 2022 bill was temporary status for unauthorised arrivals. Labour for all refugees
- 2022 5 years for safe route refugees. Labour: 20
- 2022 bill was 10 years for boats, Lab: 30

"U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school."
"The strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the Middle East."
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.
What turns a kind and compassionate young MP into a cruel, cold-hearted [what's the word I'm looking for here?] monster, a champion of #TheRichAndPowerful in their punching down of the most #vulnerable?!
Just when did Shabana Mahmood sell her soul? How much did she get for it?
It's like when the fascist Oswald Mosley's grandson, who Palantir hired to run its UK operations, appeared on Laura Kuenssberg wearing a black T-shirt.
None of this is accidental: it's all answering the question, 'what message do I want to send?' 'Fascism to immigrants' is the message Mahmood does.
Still very eager to sell this! I'm unsure what an appropriate asking price is, I guess £1500 plus shipping? I'm open to negotiation. DM if you're interested!
Starmer is now so far to the right that he is relying on the votes of the most extreme rightwing Tory government in history.
Tells you all you need to know.
Trans ppl under attack from the govt could be identified and outed w/o their consent.
Undocumented immigrants would be cut off from the ability to communicate w advocates.
Young ppl seeking abortions won't be able to access info safely and anonymously.
This is what congress is advancing today 👇🏻
TIL that I’m the Deputy National Security Advisor.
dude couldn’t be happier to be killing people. absolutely giddy about it. it’s grotesquely evil.
He’s talking about human beings
YouGov polling graphic showing Reform on 23% (-1), Green 21% (+4), Con and Lab 16% (-1) and Lib Dem 14% (no change)
🚨 New National Poll Alert! 🚨
We said we were here to replace Labour - we meant it.
So they want to "stop the boats" but they won't let people come via legal routes?
The Guardian is promoting a commercial enterprise the profits from which will be used to harass, exclude and victimise one of the most vulnerable groups in the country.
Disgusting Trumpian policies.
It’s offensive that Labour have the gall to describe themselves as a progressive left-wing party.
Striking that Reform have now overtaken Labour as the party people would most like to vote against - very much matches what we heard in Gorton with many voters primary concern less merits of Lab/Green but who could best stop Reform.
Yo, Labour...
YouGov has the Greens in second place for the first time
Putting things like basic ethics aside...
... does anyone really believe that the Home Office, which cant deal with its present asylum responsibilities, is going to be able to review every application, every 30 months?
I have a bridge to sell you
Based on recent levels of grants, it would only take a few years before the number of reviews being processed is higher than the number of initial asylum decisions being taken. Within the first 10 years of reviews, @refugeecouncil.bsky.social estimates between 940k and 1.1m reviews would be needed.
you are literally the one guy who isn't allowed to complain about this
What the actual fuck
