@Geri I'm old enough to remember Labour members calling Thatcher the class enemy.
And patriotism is not the last, but the first refuge of scoundrels.
@ChrisMayLA6 Look out for the smears in the media if the Greens look like getting too popular.
Remember what they did to Corbyn with the help of the #RedTories.
The so-called Labour government dragging feet over continued exploitation of younger workers.
Equal work deserves equal pay.
Breaking:
Anas Sarwar calls on Anas Sarwar to resign over backing of Mandelson.
"Despite pledging to restore power and influence to βworking peopleβ while launching a βtotal crackdown on cronyismβ, Starmerβs administration has been marked by exactly the sort of special favours and subservience to special interests that so marked the Conservative Government under Boris Johnson."

The Grauniad's answer to Polly Filla thinks Starmer has screwed up badly.

What a treat to start the week with the cheering top-of-the-frontpage news that the various factions of #RedTories which comprise the UK's so-called "#LabourParty" are indeed knocking lumps out of each other. β€οΈππ
Soggy centrist #AndyBurham is a strange hill for anyone to die on, but here we are. A delightful #popcorn moment bringing joy to cold dark January. π₯

Happy Sunday, as the UK's so-called "#LabourParty" blocks #AndyBurnham's return to the #HouseOfCommons. π
#UKLabour's National Executive Commitee has refused #Burnham's request to be allowed to apply to be the by-election candidate in #GortonAndDenton.
Blocking the party's most popular man will
1/ start a huge row in the #RedTories, between fans of hard-right #Starmer and fans of soggy centrist #Burnham.
2/ hand the seat to #GPEW leader #ZackPolanski.
Great work, Starmer! π π π€£ #Popcorn
