Honestly... Fair enough. They'd probably do more harm than good, and they certainly wouldn't like what the people of Makerfield, Wigan have to say about Keir Starmer. Too big a pill to swallow for people intent on putting fingers in ears to avoid confronting reality..

..also nevermind the idea that we'd be asking the people of Makerfield to elect a guy, only to have to do it all again in a few weeks. God no. So so dumb.

GOOD, absolutely correct. It would be an act of extreme stupidity on the part of Labour to voluntarily throw away MP's seats & huge majority to Reform, on some lofty idea of principle. Would never see such acts of vandalism from the Tories. Use the majority to change the country!

Exclusive: Andy Burnham will not call an early election if he becomes PM His spokesperson says he is ruling out a snap election It means he’d likely govern to 2029 if he successfully challenges Starmer this summer The move by his campaign to end speculation about an early

After the Manchester 10k, campaigning in the hills of Hindley was a tough ask! And my opponents are getting a little more desperate in what they are throwing at me. But I won’t be deflected and am sticking to the game plan! 💪🏻

The Soho Society is objecting to *every* new bar/restaurant licence in what is supposed to be the centre of London’s nightlife. More planning/licensing insanity. I asked them to come on my Sunday LBC show: "We will absolutely not be taking questions from journalists". Of course

We're almost certainly now at a point where Labour will become the new favourites in the Most Seats market if they win in Makerfield, if not before

Reform’s candidate in Makerfield said women have abortions for “vanity purposes.” Prehistoric. Toxic. Misogynistic. And Farage wants to put people like this in Parliament.

The judge wanted to avoid criminalising the boys unnecessarily? The raped a girl. Criminalising them IS the necessity. What a roach of a judge.. shouldn't be able to rule of any case involving rape.

BBC report and documentary, on the plight of poor Afghan fathers forced to sell their children to survive. Except you have to read some way into the article - which is around 2,500 words long - before it becomes clear they are specifically selling their daughters into child marriage and domestic slavery. “If I sell one daughter, I could feed the rest of my children for at least four years,” says one father. Another father, pictured in the article, sold his five-year-old little girl. The framing is extraordinary. Not only because the fact only female children are being sold is presented as unremarkable. But also because the fathers making the decision are presented as the victims - rather than the girls who will actually live with the consequences of it. The fathers’ desperation is real and tragic. But so is the reality that these girls are being treated as commodities.
