Congratulations Sagal! 👏🏾
You’ve been a passionate champion for Camden and the people and communities who call it home. Looking forward to working with you and seeing all that you’ll achieve as the new MP for Holborn and St Pancras 🌹

Like @JewishLabour when Corbyn ran Labour, if the party refuses to police itself, the outside watchdog - in this case the EHRC, gets called in.
JLM has constantly warned previous Green leadership they would up in this awful, grim place without action on antisemitism. Shameful.

Kemi Badenoch last month: "We are recruiting serious people who understand common sense, can get stuff done and can unite the country...Candidate selection is... one of the first serious tests of whether the Conservative Party has actually learnt from defeat."

For the avoidance of doubt I don’t believe this man should have *any* role in public life - because of both his racism and his view of women.
@KemiBadenoch you’ve got this very, very wrong.

So @JohnHealey is Chancellor. That's quite some reward for being the first one to really kick @Keir_Starmer in the teeth. No wonder he looks pleased with himself.

Yes Beth, that’s the kind of man he is. The man you abused, betrayed, spoke ill of, tried to upset and all for clicks. When you spend your money, remember how you made it. You sold your soul. It always shocks me how someone who is a mother can behave with such little compassion.

NEW: Am told Keir Starmer wrote handwritten notes for every single member of No 10 staff - in the hundreds - thanking them for their public service

Thank you for everything you’ve done and will continue to do for West Yorkshire.
It has been the privilege of my life to serve as the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
The economy today is stronger, fairer and more resilient because of the choices we have taken as a Labour Government over the past two years.
Stability restored, investment delivered and reform to our economy under way. I said when I was appointed Chancellor that I would judge my time in office if the lives ordinary working class people have been improved. I’m proud to say that they have.
And to every young woman and girl let my time in office show there should be no ceilings on your ambitions, your hopes or your dreams.
I wish the very best of luck to my successor, Andy and his cabinet. You have my full support, and I will continue to play my part in helping this Labour government deliver the change the country needs.

The test of any Prime Minister is: do you leave your country in a better place than you found it?
I’m proud that the answer is yes.

When I see Starmer in Paris, leading the Coalition of the Willing, and today in Ukraine, I struggle to see Burnham having the same international standing and gravitas.
Laura 🇪🇺 retweeted
We were lucky enough to have a true statesman as our Prime Minister.
After 14 years of incompetence, that proved to be too much for the elitist chattering classes.
What is worse is that those with no chance of ever winning an election for Labour decided to jump on the bandwagon.
Laura 🇪🇺 retweeted
Surely this is an error on your part and you meant to post this because you can’t really be pretending that we have Andy Burnham to thank for this legislation?
Laura 🇪🇺 retweeted
The number of Labour MPs, including Burnham, not even crediting Starmer with years of pro bono support to Hillsborough families, shaping the draft legislation, adopting it as Labour policy in 2022, putting it in the 2024 manifesto and delivering it...

I will never ever understand nor forgive those in PLP Who destroyed our party and leader. A man who just did the job
Laura 🇪🇺 retweeted
Keir Starmer valued by foreign leaders more than by his own party.
Shame on @UKLabour

Does anyone else get the feeling that Keir Starmer has been cut off in his prime?
There is so much good news in his last weeks in government.
Having to resign comes across as the Labour party on a suicide mission.
What have they done?
