👀 Election fever has already spread beyond Westminster. Last week a Lib Dem councillor told HQ that he had tried to order some new Correx boards - the plastic placards used in election campaigns - only to be told the company could not fulfil the order for another month because it would be using all of November to complete a large order for the Labour Party. From today’s weekend long read with @whazell Story 👇 inews.co.uk/news/politics/in…

Inheritance tax, student loans and pensions: Healey's potential Budget ‘rabbits’

Despite claims of a “nothing to see here” Budget Chancellor John Healey may still pull a rabbit out of the hat

Recently I met with migrant care workers again, because talking to people impacted by our policy is important and helps make sure the right decisions are made. Care workers should be exempt from retrospective settlement extensions.

CCTV footage has been released showing the moment a Maidstone fan fell from the top tier of a stand at Ipswich Town's ground. John Ryan was found not guilty of assault by beating and not guilty of causing actual bodily harm. More here: bbc.in/4B1flGt

A partial Tory recovery that still results in a terrible GE defeat is exacting what Labour need. Keep up the good work Kemi - your appeal to 100k+ earners and millionaires will win gain you dozens of seats at the next election - and not much else.

Fascinating article by @ShippersUnbound on the state of the Tories coming up to two years into Kemi Badenoch's leadership. Are the Tories deluding themselves as an insider reveals membership has fallen below 100,000 for the first time post-1945? spectator.com/article/kemi-b…

The old jokes are the best. When I arrived in Birmingham on Sunday evening for the Tory party conference, I immediately ran into a former Downing Street bigwig. ‘The Conservative party has two modes...

The funny thing about Stratford International: it’s not international. That needs to change. Bringing cross-Channel rail services to Stratford would boost jobs and £1.3 billion in tourism spending. I’m working with the government to get it on track. cityam.com/sadiq-khan-run-in…

Sadiq Khan: Run international trains from Stratford instead of expanding Heathrow

With more Brits supporting increasing international rail over expanding airports, connecting Stratford to Europe is a no-brainer, writes Sadiq Khan.

A large proportion of the Lib Dem parliamentary party are one nation Tories who have simply joined the vehicle which carted them to Westminster. Brexit achieved some amusing by products

The fact that a man with this vibe and background is MP for David Cameron's old seat and he's *not a Tory* is really funny. You can vote against the Conservative Party, but there are Tories everywhere with those for eyes to see.

NEW: What happened in Holborn? Some constituency polling to help us understand a bit more. TLDR: loyalty to Burnham + a local candidate won the day; no real sign of tactical voting; Greens never convinced ppl they could win but Polanski not toxic necessarily. @Persuasion_UK

Replying to @tomhfh
I've listened. You're completely ignoring the fundamental issue. Andy Burnham's strategy of re-uniting the Left is working. He's close to breaking 30%. With the right split, tactical voting and greater voter efficiency, that's all he needs.

The Tory Bayeux Tapestry is very funny and a great skewering of most of the main characters, apart from Angela Rayner who looks absolutely iconic in every image

Tories appealing to 0.2% of the population with their policies. It’s almost as if they desire to lose 😂

So the Shadow Education Secretary promises to extend free childcare to couples who earn money re than £100k a year. What kind of utter madness is this? It’s this kind of fiscal incontinence that got us into this mess in the first place.
