Please could @teamlabouruk.bsky.social make sure the Assisted Dying Bill not be defeated by an unelected group of people. As my representative I wrote to my MP on this issue. Not possible with House of Commons!

If the assisted dying bill is killed off by the Lords, let that be the end for this unelected chamber | Polly Toynbee
With filibustering slowing the pace to a crawl, there is no chance the legislation will get through – unless the government shows some backbone, says Guardian columnist Polly Toynbee

Oh who could ever have expected Andrew Rosindell to join Nigel Farage's Reform UK?
🙄
Andrew Rosindell MP @AndrewRosindell A fantastic reception here in Romford Market with @Nigel_Farage as we campaign to Leave the E.U. 1:35 PM Mar 12, 2016 Andrew Rosindell MP @AndrewRosindell This week in @HouseofCommons I was proud to co-sponsor the 10 Minute Rule Motion - European Convention on Human Rights (Withdrawal) Bill -to take the United Kingdom out of the ECHR, proposed by @Nigel_Farage alongside MPs from the Conservative Party, Reform UK, DUP, TUV and others. Together, as a united right, we took the fight to Labour and their allies in the Liberal Democrats, Greens, Plaid Cymru, SNP and the far left who continue to prioritise supranational institutions over the interests of the British people! It was an historic moment in parliament, as all parties of the right-of-centre stood shoulder to shoulder and voted together in the national interest... we need to keep on doing that! Statement: Labour has frustrated attempts to leave the ECHR From rosindell.com 10:33 PM Nov 1, 2025 24.4K Views Andrew Rosindell MP @AndrewRosindell Its amazing who you bump into @GBNEWS - some of the greatest Britons on Britain's greatest free speech loving News channel! #SirWinston Churchill @Nigel_Farage @Gloria De Piero @danwootton @colinbrazierGBN @StephenGBNews @tomhfh @darrenmccaffrey 10:42 Jan 30, 2022

What’s going on here then?

Starmer makes a beeline for Farage during a break in the assisted dying bill debate yesterday.

If he was telling you he wants to be mates Nigel don’t believe him. He’s got form for that one.... But birds of a feather flock together 🪶
