PM stabbed Boris Johnson in the back “for a pint-sized loser”, deputy Labour leader Angela Rayner says Rayner is “always looking to attack others failures, but never takes responsibility for her own”, deputy PM Oliver Dowden replies #PMQs bbc.in/3U5tu0k
We welcome the UK’s announcement that they will increase defense spending to 2.5% of their GDP by 2030, in addition to sending $620 million in new military aid to Ukraine. We applaud the UK for their commitment to NATO and support for Ukraine amid Russia’s war of aggression.
BREAK: Sir Jeffrey Donaldson forced to briefly retreat back into courthouse when crowd surrounds car collecting him. Police formed a line on either side of him to secure safe departure.
‘Boris Johnson was an electoral asset whom the Tories mistakenly stabbed for personal ambition’ is an interesting piece of Labour jujitsu (and notably not the line in 2022..)

Rayner completely dominated PMQs. In confronting it in her first question, she destroyed the Dowden attacks before they took place. He couldn't recover. She demonstrated exactly so many of her opponents fear her as a political figure. They'll double down after today.
Angela Rayner coming out fighting at PMQs: "I know this government is desperate to talk about my living arrangements, but the public wants to know what they're going to do about theirs. When will he get a grip and end no fault evictions?"
Very sad to learn of the death of Frank Field. A great champion of his Birkenhead constituents, a courteous free thinker with a deep understanding of social justice - and a fierce campaigner against modern slavery. He will be missed.
Frank Field was a decent, moral, and thoughtful man. He was a great parliamentarian - he made our politics better and raised the level of national debate in this country. My thoughts and prayers are with his family today.

To get the £75 billion number, the government has assumed a baseline with spending frozen in cash terms and then added up all of the differences. If you instead assume a baseline of spending frozen as a % GDP, it's an extra £20 billion over 6 years. Details here.

The Treasury is claiming that hitting the target of raising UK defence spending to 2.5% of GDP in 2030 amounts to a "£75 billion increase". How do they get to this £75bn number? 🤨 Thread...🧵1/9 x.com/hmtreasury/sta…
NEWS: UK set to increase defence spending to 2.5% of GDP by 2030 - an increase of £75 billion. Chief Secretary to the Treasury Laura Trott visited Wellington Barracks in Westminster today to explain what this means.
Good episode of @TheNewsAgents today, but the suggestion from @maitlis that some of the cute animal clips that crop up on this site may be fake is a bit upsetting. She’ll be saying that Father Christmas or the Tooth Fairy aren’t real next
This - the lack of ‘big picture’ analysis from politicians re foreign policy, terms of trade, aid, & peace-building is striking.
Have reported on this extensively on @TheNewsAgents as well. The world is on the move and that’s going to accelerate. There may be a role for offshore processing. But we’re kidding ourselves if we believe this very Westminster policy is going to make a huge difference in the real…
