Hi @SuellaBraverman, is he still a trooper? He's just been charged with multiple counts of rape and offences involving indecent images of children.

The benefits bill isn't spiralling out of control. They're lying again.
Alex Burghart asks if Labour will commit to reducing the Welfare Bill as part of Andy Burnham's 10-year plan They are “taking steps already” to bring it down, Louise Haigh says, highlighting “messes” inherited from the Tories #PMQs bbc.in/4A4TmNk

Liz Sahu defects to Labour — the party opening new fossil fuel fields, the party propping up a genocide, the party that refuses public ownership and won’t tax the rich — if this is Liz’s new political home perhaps she wasn’t a good Green fit in the first place. #BackZack
A Green Party councillor in Leicester has defected to Labour - saying she no longer recognises the party under Zack Polanski. Liz Sahu, who represents Castle ward, says the Greens adopting a “Zionism is Racism” motion was the “final straw”.

The parents of Oleksii, a 14-year-old boy beaten at an alleged secret Azov detention facility near Kyiv — where mobilized men and military deserters were allegedly held and tortured — have now been added to the notorious Myrotvorets hit list, with their personal information published for all to see. Because apparently, having your child beaten isn't punishment enough. Why not put the entire family's safety at risk while you're at it? They are accused of “failure to fulfill parental responsibilities for the care and upbringing of minor children, resulting in serious consequences.” Now, naturally, I assume Ursula von der Leyen will be issuing an urgent statement today, expressing her profound outrage over these human rights violations in Ukraine. Surely, she'll immediately put the brakes on the $115 billion Zelensky is asking for. After all, you can't possibly keep handing over European taxpayers' money to a country where people are tortured, children are beaten, and families who speak out find themselves exposed on a “kill list.” That would be a little awkward for the whole “defending European values, freedom, and democracy” narrative, wouldn't it?

The US Senate turning blue is a warning to the UK: the old politics is finished. Labour has abandoned socialism and merged with the Tories. Vote for independents, Greens, and progressive voices—not party colours. Palestine has exposed the moral bankruptcy of the establishment

If you ever feel useless just know that Elon Musk spent $40 billion buying the world's most powerful propaganda tool, then spent hundreds of millions of dollars trying to buy Texas, and no one listened to him so now he's deleting all his tweets 😭😭😭

Kuenssberg was the tip of the spear of BBC's political assassination of Jeremy Corbyn. BBC's 'reputation' for 'impartiality' was comprehensively and terminally trashed by her. Those of us who witnessed it will not forgive or forget. #ItWasAScam
Laura Kuenssberg out & about promoting her book Will #GMB ask her about the time when, as the BBCs political editor, she deliberately mispresented Corbyns views on shoot to kill in order to smear him & why she thinks she wasn't sacked for lying?

Good riddance. Clear lines of policy demarcation force people to reveal themselves.

A 14-year-old boy who was beaten in a secret Azov prison near Kyiv has been added to the Myrotvorets hit list. No, not his abusers — the boy himself. He is accused of: 📌“Actions aimed at undermining Ukraine’s defense capabilities and disrupting mobilization efforts in the interests of the Russian fascist invaders.” 📌“Incitement to attacks against Ukrainian military personnel.” 📌“Attacking Ukrainian military personnel with the aim of inflicting bodily harm and destroying military property.” 📌“Obstructing the lawful activities of Ukraine’s Defense Forces in protecting the country’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.” If I were his mother, I would take my child out of this fascist country, leave for somewhere else, and immediately seek political asylum to save Oleksii’s life. Zelenskyy’s regime is a criminal mafia, propped up by Azov militants armed to the teeth with NATO’s latest high-tech military toys. Slava Ukraini?!

AFTER his arrest. Let that sink in.
These pictures of Reform councillor George David Madgwick posing alongside Nigel Farage, Robert Jenrick, Suella Braverman, Zia Yusuf and Laila Cunningham were taken after his arrest. He has now been charged with 35 offences, including rape and offences involving indecent images of children. The question is why he was still being paraded alongside the party's most senior figures after his arrest?

We're taking the triple-lock off pensioners, reneging on the pledge to pay young people a minimum wage and picking on disabled people. All while sending Zelenskyy's nazis untold £billions. This lad, the youngest freed from Kiev prison, is 14 years old ↓ skwawkbox.org/2026/11/03/zel…

She wants to cut welfare to pay for defence. So she wants people who are being attacked by the state to pay for its defence. 🤡

On this day in 1839, 10,000 Welsh workers marched on Newport to demand the right to vote. Met with gunfire from state forces, the Chartist uprising became the largest armed revolt in 19th-century Britain. Every right we hold today was won through working-class struggle, not handed down from above. Nearly two centuries later, that fight continues. Across France, Germany, Italy, and Portugal, hundreds of thousands are taking to the streets over the rising cost of living, failing public services, and unaffordable housing. Workers face the same fundamental choice the Chartists did: accept what the ruling class offers, or organise and demand more. The Newport martyrs proved that rights are never freely given, they are taken through collective action. Honour their memory by organising for the future. #NewportRising #Chartism #WorkingClassHistory #JoinAUnion #OrganiseForTheFuture #EuropeProtests #CostOfLivingCrisis

#C4News You can absolutely bet that if Democrat candidate El Sayed was standing in a UK Election, @Channel4News would firstly completely ignore him and not report his policy ideas, then they’d be at the forefront of smearing and sabotage if he looked like being elected.

I hate Labour. All the years I was a member: now I hate them. I especially hate the dishonesty, the twisting and hedging and obscuring that poisons our entire political life. 'Our focus on the cost of living.' They must never be forgiven.
Another fantastic poll lead for Labour. No political party is perfect but we are the party of working people and voters are responding to our focus on the cost of living. Reform can make all the noise but we will get on with delivering for the people. cityam.com/labour-races-ahea…
