His legacy is Gaza, Morgan McSweeney, industrial-scale dishonesty, proscribing protestors as terrorists, fixing trials and so on, and if it takes a while for that to become clear, this is only because all that was more than acceptable to the political class and the commentariat.
🚨 A senior government figure told The Telegraph Sir Keir Starmer was realising that the “game is up” and his thoughts were now turning to how he could “shore up his legacy” 🔗: telegraph.co.uk/politics/202…

What an incredibly immoral waste of resources. Peaceful protesters quietly holding signs expressing forbidden opinions of solidarity against genocide, arrested en-masse by this ridiculous force on behalf of a craven, pathetic government.
Replying to @metpoliceuk
523 people were arrested today for showing support for a proscribed organisation. The age of those arrested ranges from 18 to 87. That brings the updates today to a close, we are grateful to all the officers involved for their professionalism.

Replying to @LeftieStats
Lab is now losing far more votes to Greens (7.4pts) than to Reform (3.6pts). Overall, a majority of 2024 Lab voters are now backing other parties, and a whopping 70% of those are fleeing leftward. Lab’s collapse is not the result of a right-wing surge, but of left-wing dissent.

Left wing & liked a tweet by a Green politician? Sorry you can't be a Labour candidate for parliament On the Labour right & campaigned for someone who'd been charged with possessing and distributing indecent images of children? Here's a peerage to represent Labour in parliament

look: you just have to accept that the entire labour leadership, including close personal friends and proteges of peter mandelson, actually knew less, not more, about his links to epstein than anyone with an internet connection could easily find out, 5 years ago, until yesterday
if i was an embattled political party, personally, i would not turn to the consul of a man who went on shopping trips with jeffrey epstein and allegedly rang him in jail to ask a favour, but maybe that's just me

Musk is descended from people who actually turned up in villages in Africa and stole from, raped and murdered the indigenous people - his wealth stems from the emerald mines his ancestors stole - here he peddles pure fiction, to sustain the racist system he owes everything to
Elon Musk: "These lovely small towns in England, Scotland, Ireland, are living their lives quietly [Like The Hobbits in The Shire] — until one day, a thousand people show up in your village of 500 out of nowhere and start r*ping the kids."

RIP D’Angelo, don’t even know what to say. Three timeless albums, each one an incredible expansion of his sound—a peerless, flawless discography. It wouldn’t even be crazy to say he released the best album of the 90s, the 2000s, and the 2010s. One of our greatest artists.

Ta Nehisi Coates was right: people who will not draw a line at genocide will not draw the line at democracy.
BREAKING: The home secretary is to introduce new restrictions on protests and will give police officers more powers to consider the 'cumulative impact' of repeated demonstrations. 🔗 Read more trib.al/DKHdq2X

🚨Breaking: Major artists have called on Keir Starmer to accept Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza, in a video projected in Liverpool at the entrance to the Labour party conference site. "The refusal of his government to use the word genocide is a craven way of evading Britain’s legal obligations under the Genocide Convention" - @khalidabdalla

It's clear from the Windsor banquet guest list that the real purpose of Trump's "historic" state visit is to invite US finance and tech CEOs to asset-strip anything here in the UK that isn't nailed down
