'It's brutal if you don't have skills': Can Labour get Britain back to work? With more than 1.5 million people in Britain unemployed and 2.8 million out of work due to long-term sickness, will Labour really be able to โ€œGet Britain working againโ€?

"It's a disaster for your health, future jobs prospects and earning potential... We won't let that happen to young people.โ€

Liz Kendall has unveiled a major package of welfare reforms to tackle soaring rates of unemployment, but will her plan work?

A restaurant board sign that reads: โ€œwe are not all in the same boat. We are in the same storm. Some have yachts. Some have canoes. And some are drowning. Just be kind and help when you can.

Imminently out of date 'Ketchup Cheetos' are on special offer at my local Costcutter. You have to wonder how special the offer is. But not enough to ask.

(Also, because I think it's worth noting, this is the the kind of whimsy I stopped posting on Twitter because even this nonsense got mullered.)

It seems that this Labour government is under pressure to deliver growth at all costs. My fear is that this pressure will lead us to take shortcuts to deliver that growth at a rapid rate, and we may regret what we have done.

I'm concerned that โ€œbig corporate entitiesโ€ such as Palantir are trying to become integral parts of providing public services. Highly extractive corporate entities are always going to put their own interests first, not the interests of the NHS or other public services.

Absolutely loved @mrjamesob.bsky.social's #HowTheyBrokeBritain. Frighteningly well-researched and articulated. A must-read for anyone with even a vague interest in how Britain got into such a mess.

Of course. You wouldnโ€™t want the FBI to uncover any national security threats in your national security team, after all.

โ€˜America cannot operate by itselfโ€™: Peter Mandelson on why Trump needs Britain Former secretary of state Peter Mandleson tells Lewis Goodall why the US and the UK could form a โ€œsolid partnershipโ€.

โ€œAmerica does need allies, it does need partners, it does need to work with other like-minded nationsโ€

Lord Peter Mandelson says the US under Donald Trump will look to Britain to strike a deal.

Reform UK just like all right wing parties wants to privatize healthcare (NHS), abolish minimum wage, privatize education and give huge tax breaks to the rich. Reform UK has no intention of improving the life of the working class people.

Happy #ThoughtfulThursday lovely phone family. I know some days it's easy to feel like there's very little hope, but I believed kind people are still in the majority, so let's not give up the fight for kindness, compassion and decency โค๏ธ

rare to have a social network where the CEO isn't the main character and we'd like to keep it that way

but for the record, @jay.bsky.team is the CEO of bluesky, jack dorsey is no longer on the board and he owns 0% of the company
