What a lot of flabby, wet, meaningless, commitment-free drivel...
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer says the story of the nativity "reminds us that in times of darkness and despair, hope, love and peace are always worth advocating for" Watch his Christmas message ⬇️ trib.al/KWC7K49
Nice one, Trinity.
We are pleased to share that we have secured £1million investment from the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, meaning we are one step closer to securing the future of Jacobs Wells.
DOESN'T bode well. (Just testing to see if you were paying attention ...)
Looks like the main Labour offer to electorate will be 'we'll do it all more efficiently than Tories'. Whether they will remains to be seen, of course, but the current line up of centrist apologists for neoliberalism does bode well.
Morecambe and Wise 2.0. - but with added Jingoism...
Serving in our Armed Forces is the ultimate public service. Our troops embody the values of courage, integrity, loyalty and professionalism that the British people most admire. They make Britain - and @UKLabour – proud. independent.co.uk/news/uk/nato-u…

Not content with performative austerity, border control, antisematism, looks like Labour is now into performance militarism despite the fact that the UK struggles to pay for the much-reduce armed forces it has left. What is different between the policies of Labour and Tories FFS?
It was a pleasure to meet with our British troops in Estonia and to thank them for their commitment to standing tall against Russian aggression, especially over Christmas. Labour is proud of their service, bravery and professionalism.
Just 9,000 years ago Britain was connected to continental Europe by an area of land called Doggerland, which is now submerged beneath the southern North Sea. Doggerland was a mix of marshes, swamps, wooded valleys and hills, and most likely inhabited by humans during the Mesolithic period (10,000 to 8,000 BCE). It was teeming with migrating wildlife and served as a seasonal hunting ground for humans. However, as ice melted at the end of the last glacial period, sea levels rose and Doggerland eventually became submerged, cutting off the British peninsula from the European continent by around 7,000 BC. Dogger Bank (shown on the map) briefly remained an island before submerging underwater. The area today is known among fishermen to be a productive fishing bank and is very shallow at only about 50 to 120 ft (15 - 36 m) deep. Over the years fishermen from the North Sea have dredged up hand-made bone artifacts, textile fragments, paddles, dug-out canoes, fish traps, a 13,000-year-old human remain, a woolly mammoth skull and a skull fragment of a 40,000-year-old Neanderthal.
If it's not OK to 'go soft' on Russia, why is it OK to go soft on Israel? Will Labour be providing guidance on when it is and isn't OK to invade someone else's country?
Britain will support Ukraine for as long as it takes to win against Russia. I am proud of our armed forces who stand tall in the face of Putin’s aggression. They are a beacon of hope and freedom this Christmas. thetimes.co.uk/article/sir-ke…
Labour will say and do whatever it is told to do by its Israeli-supporting funders, the MSM media barons, the United States government and representatives of international finance capital.
Waiver? Waiver, you say? In the light of the Labour Party's pusillanimous failure on Gaza, and Starmer's failure to stick to any of the 'pledges' he made in his leadership campaign, Labour has actually won the Gladys Chiswell medal for waivering.
What I read from the @StefanRousseau photo is: Britain now has an opposition that will not waver in the face of Russian aggression, stands in total solidarity with the troops who have to wear this 7 days a week, & will step up to the task of giving them the capabilities they need
"radical forms of leftism.. " 🤣🤣🤣 You ain't seen nothing yet, mate.
@drchrisnewton You don’t worry you’ve become rather frenzied, do you?
Behold, magic mushrooms for the ears. Professor Stanley Unwin meets the voice of Bill and Ben, Peter Hawkins. Greetings and welcode. Deep joy.
And puts it into stark contrast to the original decision to off-short refugees to Rwanda, which wasn't politically motivated at all.
BREAKING: Priti Patel has explained the "scandalous decision" to ground the Rwanda fight was "politically motivated". She fails to mention it was motivated by the political decision to comply with the law and basic human rights x
All heart...
BREAKING: In 2018, Boris Johnson tried to make his mistress Carrie Johnson (then Symonds) his chief of staff and pay her £100,000 a year while his wife of 26 years and mother to four of his many children, Marina Wheeler, developed cervical cancer. What a guy 😍
Amid all the week’s noise over various illegalities + culture war distractions, not heard a single word about a single thing that a single government Minister is doing actually to address the people’s priorities they claim to be focused on. Like the economy and public services
Great to see you in a tux Jackson. A whole side of you I've never seen before. You could have had an alternative career as a TV host on a shopping channel.
The MerryHill ‘self-finish’ project in Bristol of 50 homes won the social housing category at #SWResiAwards Great recognition, as it’s been a tough journey & less than half our self-finishers have moved in. @BristolCLT @brighterplaces_ @CoreusGroup @BRHConsultants @insiderswest
'Morrocans are much more skilled in magic than they are in hygiene' Brion Gysin
Oh Lewis, you lucky fellow. Morroco is magic (literally and metaphorically). List of must-do's includes: ride calouche cabs in Marrakech, get to a hammam, go down Draa valley to the desert and ride a camel, eat tagine, hang out with the Berbers.
Off to Morocco 🇲🇦 tomorrow, never visited before. Excited-all tips and recommendations welcome.
Wow, so close now. Just crossed the £320K barrier and into the home straight. One last heave' for community land ownership in Stokes Croft folks. fundsurfer.com/community-shar…
