Patriotism isn't supporting the government. Patriotism isn't arming Israel to commit war crimes. Brits overwhelmingly oppose arms sales to Israel - the political-media class simply refuses to listen. (58% oppose, just 18% support, Yougov, 4 April 2024 yougov.co.uk/topics/politic…)
David Lammy believes the three regime change wars we actually did were failures, but the one we didn't do would have been a success — a perfect example of our political class's determination to never learn from mistakes.

Wilma Brown was until today Labour's Parliamentary candidate in Cowdenbeath & Kirkcaldy. She's now been suspended for racist tweets. But Labour's Leadership claim to have a 'robust due diligence' system in place to ensure 'high quality candidates'. So what went wrong? A🧵

Oh dear Abdi. You said "Tell me you don’t know how polling works without telling you don’t know how polling works 🤡" but you don't know how polling works. Even your diversion is wrong. If you think Labour’s 2017 vote wouldn't give a majority with the Tories on 24%, who's the 🤡?

Abdi, leaving aside that this is factually wrong, what has it got to do with how polling works? You used a clown emoji so presumably it’s easy for you to point out my error. I think you just said something you thought made you sound clever without understanding it yourself.

Hi Abdi Duale, are you there? You made a personal attack on me but, ironically, you don’t seem able to tell me how polling works. I can see you’ve been on here since being asked to explain. Is this how a member of the NEC, or even a corporate lobbyist, is supposed to behave?

'Patriotism is about supporting each other, not attacking somebody else' – @jeremycorbyn, 2019
This massive YouGov poll of nearly 19,000 people which shows Labour winning a huge majority of seats has Labour on 41% in vote share, just 1 percentage point more than it recorded in the 2017 election under Jeremy Corbyn. The difference is the Tories and the SNP have imploded.
It was a horrible mistake with the first hit. Then, just to make sure, two more mistakes were fired.

Patriotism isn't supporting the government. Patriotism isn't arming Israel to commit war crimes. Brits overwhelmingly oppose arms sales to Israel - the political-media class simply refuses to listen. (58% oppose, just 18% support, Yougov, 4 April 2024 yougov.co.uk/topics/politic…)
Leave aside this is a cheerleader for Keir Starmer, whose idea of integrity is making iron cast policy pledges to be elected party leader, then abandoning them. This idea of politics as a “profession” is toxic. It should be a service - not a profession!
“We need to bring some integrity, some faith, some sense that politics is actually a profession...that requires people of good character” After the suspension of Tory MP Mark Menzies, Josh Simons of think tank ‘Labour Together’ warns trust is declining in democracy: #Newsnight
That so many Remainers are still in love with Keir Starmer defies belief - but only if you think it was about closer ties to Europe for them rather than what it was actually about, support for policy-free managerialist technocrats
Labour rejects youth mobility idea from EU. No principle just pusillanimous , keen to waffle on EU UK security relations but something for youth not the swing Tory voter, run a mile
David Lammy believes the three regime change wars we actually did were failures, but the one we didn't do would have been a success — a perfect example of our political class's determination to never learn from mistakes.
Lammy reflects on failed UK-US foreign policy (without confessing he voted for all three) "The failures of Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya… A British government that adheres to progressive realism will not repeat these errors" But Lammy says we should have bombed Syria more Hmm…
Labour Together failing to declare £800,000 in donations to fund the most dishonest political campaign in history will do far more to damage trust in democracy than Tory sex scandals.

@genericman @lukemcgee @OzKaterji Crybullies of the world, unite
Absolutely wild that Labour is regularly polling +25% above the Tories but Keir Starmer's personal approval is -31% Surely this disparity is unprecedented Labour will win the next election but Starmer will not last much longer as Labour Leader with these numbers
Just read David Lammy's essay on 'Progressive Realism' and "underwhelming" would be a generous response. I will never understand who is the audience for this kind of word salad… It's symptomatic of our failing politics: empty words and vacuous policies, but I pressed on… 1/n

Does having the safest Tory seat in the cabinet, under the new boundaries, allow your brain to be permanently removed? From slave-trading to drug-peddling, empire was about making money rather than caring about morality. Perhaps that's her point? 1/3
The Glorious revolution helped make slavery big business. When James II fled to France in 1688, it hastened the demise of the Royal African Company and allowed more Englishmen to be involved in the slave trade and ship many more slaves! 2/3
Parliament debated what would better satisfy colonies' demand for slave labour: monopoly in the form of joint stock RAC or an open trade in which any subject was free to trade in slaves. The latter won out. No of slaves traded in 1660 7,000 a year. A century later: 40,000. 3/3

Gosh, yes, imagine a Westminster/media that refuses to entertain ideas it doesn't agree with, that sounds awful
Liz Truss may be an imperfect messenger, but the response to her book highlights one of Westminster's biggest flaws - it has stopped listening to ideas it doesn't agree with: inews.co.uk/opinion/laughi…
