Are the Lib Dems (72 MPs) up next for comment on the budget or is it just a Reform (5 Mps) representative (NOT EVEN AN ELECTED OFFICIAL)
Astonishing drop in journalistic standards over the last year.

Mission accomplished for US administration and Farage and Co.
What a time to live in when you can’t call the most corrupt US president corrupt because he will sue you.
I’m sure this will get as much outrage and coverage from @lbc.co.uk, GB News and the RW bias media.

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Good morning to everyone apart from the United team.
I’ve been a fan 30+ years and I’ve never been so let down.
Forget the last 5 games, there are players in there who couldn’t give a toss and only play when we are winning. We are going nowhere with that in the squad.

I’d have thought nothing cuts more against our precious British values than selling out your country for Russian bribes…
And yet Reform, the right‑wing press, and all those self‑styled guardians of these values have nothing to say

A prominent member of a UK political party has been jailed for doing the work of a hostile state. He acted in the exact same way as that Party’s leader and yet whether Keir Starmer is in trouble is the main talking point this morning.

This seems like a good time to remind people that everyone in politics and media knew very well that Johnson was a bent, disastrous imbecile and that he was made Tory leader *specifically because* he was the candidate the Mail, the Sun, the Times, the Telegraph and the Express would all get behind.

Having Johnson & Cummings in Downing Street when Covid struck was, just like Brexit, an entirely avoidable disaster caused largely by utterly appalling journalism. And now exactly the same clowns, arses & bigots with bylines are rolling out the red carpet for Farage.

When your back benchers are against it and Farage and Co are for it, it probably tells you your new policy is the wrong choice…on many levels.

Labour are not only fucked with people who wouldn’t support them, they’ve now managed to alienate people who would.

It's the cowardice that did it for me too. I voted Labour 18 months ago hoping to end the performative cruelty and now I'm living in a far right hellscape of grotty flags on every lamppost and the BBC on the brink of collapse. The lack of leadership is utterly unforgivable.
