I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

Our Twitter account has been locked because we posted an expose of a Councillor in Lancashire.

Because we copied in Lancashire Council and said ‘are they going to act’ this has been deemed as ‘incitement’.

These are the voters that Labour strategists have made very clear over a long period of time that they don't want any more, and it's a message that has now been heard
I've been out canvassing quite a lot in London lately. Labour's vote has absolutely evaporated.... it is quite extraordinary to go to places where Labour were on 50-60% of the vote at the last locals and find nobody, or virtually nobody, supporting them.

There are two ways Labour can try to stop Reform:
1-Oppose their rhetoric. Offer a serious alternative. Put clear blue water between Labour and Reform.
2-Behave like Reform. Copy their rhetoric. Offer similar solutions to those Reform would offer.

Sadly, Labour appear to have chosen option 2.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.

A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.

When will party leadership learn this lesson?

YOU are what we voted AGAINST last Tuesday. So I'm gonna hang on to that.

People like Matt Goodwin, Nigel Farage, Stephen Yaxley Lennon are all responsible for the atmosphere that's been created that makes this possible. Glad the club is just being so open about it. Hope the player feels supported and safe.
Once again, one of our players has received vile racist abuse online.

This is a game that racists simply aren’t going to win.

She called it. Kamala Harris laid out Trump’s vengeance agenda before it even happened.

One line that stuck with me most from 107 Days was when she wrote that during the debate, Trump was “unburdened by the truth.”

He’s also unburdened by threat of accountability, thanks to the Supreme Court.
