I have voted Labour all my adult life, and I will never vote for them whilst Starmer remains leader.
He has brought such shame to the party.
He is stripping our civil liberties, who the fuck did he sell his soul to?!?

I felt nauseated by his fawning comments to Trump today.
And now King Charlie has confirmed Trumps visit to UK. There is no moral compass in European politics anymore.

David Lammy talking as if the suffering of Palestinians started yesterday. Utterly disgracefully late & lame responses from the UK government.

Labour state that they are for "the working people," where does that leave me, a pensioner who worked for 50 years, still happily paying my taxes.
Where does it leave unpaid carers, the unable to work disabled, single parents who can't afford childcare, and therefore can't work.

I don't disagree with you. I saw the petition as a way of registering my feelings about Trump. The offer from Charlie and Starmer was a master stroke indeed.

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people.

Be strong, be brave, be fearless.
You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy.

We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

No second state visit for Trump This is UNBELIEVABLE. Keir Starmer has just handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and I was so outraged when I he...

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

β€˜Kin hell, Keir… is there any need to demonise refugees more than they already have been!
Go about your business, if you must (there will be facts and figures for you to tell the country what you have β€˜achieved’), but leave the sensationalising videos to the bad guys, eh?

I'm trying to stay informed whilst protecting my sanity at the same time. It's a difficult juggle 🀨. Also, I haven't felt inspired to comment on much. Enjoy Oscar, whatever would he make of the shitshow that is today's world politics eh? πŸ€”

2m people, eh? I think there was another "petition" earlier this year, when 18m or so voted for the Tories to go. Or as we political savants call it - a "general election."

The man who takes money from charities and charges the RNLI to launch life saving boats cost us at least Β£72m for a ceremony to stick a gold hat on his head.
But I’m sure the 1 million kids living in destitution and 1 in 4 adults and 1 in 3 kids living in poverty think he’s great for tourism.

This is CΓ©line Haidar, a Lebanese national team footballer.

CΓ©line now lies in intensive care, critically injured after being struck in the head by Israeli shrapnel in Beirut.

If she were Ukrainian, her story would be everywhere. But because she’s Lebanese, the world is silent.

So there's a lot of this this morning, the people who ruined Twitter attempting to do the same over here. Just block them. You'll never have to think of them again.
