Does Kemi Badenoch do anything as Leader of the Opposition other than call for resignations?
How about formulating policy, creating a credible team of ministers, looking like a government in waiting?
Too much like hard work when you can be getting angry on TV.

He is telling the truth.

I’m a highly experienced MRI operator and patients are never told which body part is being scanned to prevent attempts at self-treatment, eg:

- Patella reversal
- Self trepanation
- Anal sphincter removal
- Dinkle enlargement

‘Starmer doesn't talk about Brexit or the economic damage it's caused to the UK!’

Here is Starmer doing exactly that, and sowing the seeds for the case to rejoin (if in all but name), which will also include global & national security, and immigration.
👏🏽"We must all now confront the reality that the Brexit deal significantly hurt our economy. We have to keep reducing frictions. We have to keep moving towards a closer relationship with the EU. And we have to be grown up about it. To accept that it will require trade-offs."👏🏽

Music to my ears. ~AA

Hey @skynewsrss.bsky.social when you've finished passing the smelling salts around required because of your faux outrage about the Chancellor, pass these three wee snippets onto your journalists, particularly Rigby and Phillips, ta.

Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine or we (Europe) arm them to the teeth and boot them out.
I see absolutely no reason why European aircraft cannot be allowed to intercept Iranian/Russian/North Korean missiles/drones.

Our economic woes are caused by Brexit, (Ukraine), Covid, Brexit’s ugly baby - our dismal immigration policy, Truss budget, 14yrs of austerity…
All rightwing policies.
Quite mad that our media acts as if Labour’s budget is the end of days, when they failed to adequately scrutinise any of
that👆shit.

The good news this week:

Immigration at lowest level since pre Brexit. Labours methods are working

Budget delivers ways of taxing Gambling and the wealthiest more as demanded

Markets and business happy

There was only a black hole because of an OBR downgrade to productivity.

It shouldn’t be compared, but I will indulge.
Epstein and Putin are criminals with multiple victims of the most heinous crimes imaginable.
But there is one thing, one person, that ties the two together.
Donald J. Trump.

Let that sink in. 🤔

Remember the whinny creep at school, who was behind all the mischief but blamed everyone else for it.. that’s Reform

Everything is migrants fault, woke’s fault, left wing’s fault, EU’s fault etc

As they’ve shown in each council they run, they can’t budget, can’t run things, they can only fly flags

The previous Conservative administration says it is "proud of the legacy" of its town centre revamp.

I think that both Corbyn and Sultana are sort of the left wing versions of Truss. Equally ignorant, prone to sweeping statements, and general batshittery.

When your past finally catches up, what do you do? What do you do?

When the record shows you voted against every measure meant to help working people—what do you do? What do you do?

When stories about your ties to Russia won’t disappear, what do you do? What do you do?🤨👇

I see Farage is resorting to £1m spends on ads as he can’t, at the moment, seem to rely on the media to amplify his dead cat stories.

Garry Kasparov @garrykasparov.bsky.social:

Four years Ukraine is fighting for the whole Europe.
NATO was built to fight only one war, not to go to Afghanistan, not to go to Syria. One war to save free Europe from Russian aggression.
