This defection means the Tories’ majority has nearly *halved* since the general election: from 80 seats to just 41.

So how radical is Labour’s new rail policy, exactly? newstatesman.com/comment/2024/0…
If there is a prospect of a confidence vote, we will hear claims that Sunak would be willing to go straight to the country & that rather than face a vote of confidence from MPs, he would choose a vote from the public. My @NewStatesman piece. newstatesman.com/comment/2024/0…
Given how popular rail renationalisation is (65%), we should be talking more about how it’s been a good week for Labour. ipsos.com/en-uk/3-in-5-b…

Kim Gordon sounding weirdly like a New Labour strategist
NEW: Weekend @TheNewsAgents This was a treat. Extended interview with Neil Kinnock, one of the titans of British politics of the last half century. Insight on Labour’s past/present, the politicians he’s known and emotion for a life well lived. Listen👇 podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the…
@georgeeaton And Labour’s 1951 popular vote was higher than the Tories. But much more concentrated into ‘safe’ seats where they often got 80-90%. But that still only gives you one MP.
Great to hear that he is recovering at home
#Breaking ITV News presenter Rageh Omaar is “recovering at home with his family” after being treated in hospital, a spokesperson for the broadcaster said

Elements of the Tory right seem intellectually moribund. Idea that complex economic issues can be tackled with sixth form sloganeering and a narrower church seem “interesting”. Sadly the Tory left isn’t fizzing with ideas either.
Thanks to @keircozens for the first entry into the design competition for Great British Energy, Labour's publicly owned energy company! 👇
Labour will switch on Great British Energy — clean power built by Britain, owned by Britain, to cut bills and rebuild our industrial strength ⚡🇬🇧 We'll quadruple offshore wind, create thousands of good manufacturing jobs, and give us energy independence from foreign dictators.

I feel very lucky to have known and learned from David Marquand. His Macdonald biography is a very fine piece of work, his books in progressive politics were pathbreaking, and he was also in my experience a gentle and kind man.
Loved obituary of a lovely man theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
It was a pleasure speaking with @GylesB1 about growing up, my parents and life before politics.
If Nadine Dorries could stop spreading election rumours so I can go on my honeymoon next week unfettered, that would be quite cool.
@georgeeaton Yes, and as discussed in the excellent "What It Takes" Kinnock may therefore, in a roundabout way, have saved Joe Biden's life - he had been suffering splitting headaches on the campaign trail, once he dropped out he sought treatment and it turned out he was possibly days away…
.@DavidLammy at the United Nations about to meet @antonioguterres — 🇺🇳
Several people around the Prime Minister - who actually know what is going - assure me there is **NOT** a general election being called on Monday. Everyone calm down.
