@tonymc39 Still think all these victory laps could look a bit stupid in a few years Tony, but ydy
@Johnmcternan Think I get it now. When you said two-term, did you mean two-year?
@johnmcternan With a one term electorate
Welcome to the era of unmoored politics. Major parties no longer have a base of support to rely on, so there is no limit to how far they fall. What happens to the Tories now will happen to Labour in 2029.
🚨 BREAKING: The first general election MRP poll in seats 🔴 LAB: 476 🔵 CON: 66 🟠 LD: 59 🟢 Green: 2 🟣 Reform: 0 10,000 people Via @ElectCalculus & @findoutnow
@squaremelon_ @TypingOfTheRed How's it going?
@labourrescue @TypingOfTheRed Good luck with it! Hope I'm wrong.
This is Zombie Blairism: wannabe political strategists who just assume that politics hasn't shifted in any way since the "long 1990s", amd refuse to consider the idea that it is even possible to make it shift.
Time for me to check out of here. Thanks to everyone who made this website a space where, for a time, elites were exposed and new ideas flourished. I guess that's why it had to be taken over by a man-child and enshittified along with the rest of the Internet. Take care x

@EylonALevy Why's your other tweet still up?
Snowflake ❄️
This is actually fucking embarrassing for London - my place of birth. The messaging is offensive .
Rage bait is an addiction
I’ll never understand the mindset of people so desperate to subsume the authority of our own Parliament under a foreign authority. Normally that’s only something you do after losing a war. And yet some people want to do this voluntarily.
@technopopulist This would have been a profound observation five years ago, a cliche two years ago, and now it isn't even true, in that if you listen to Lewis Goodall or the FT podcast they will probably also quote Gramsci at you and tell you the old political order is finished.
Replies saying “no it’s not about capitalism!” Guys, we had a consensus in this country for 45 years that said, whatever happened (dying high street, deindustrialisation, unemployment) “well, that’s the market, sorry!” Leading it was the Tory party after 1979. Get real.
"I vote for parties that cut spending & encourage hardcore capitalism. Then I cry about the inevitable consequences." Fucking idiot.
Once you set the precedent that citizenship is a privilege that can be revoked, dual citizens become a second class of Britons, who a far-right government will undoubtedly target.
Responding to historic tweets, Alaa today says: "I am shaken that, just as I am being reunited with my family for the first time in 12 years, several historic tweets of mine have been republished and used to question and attack my integrity and values, escalating to calls for the revocation of my citizenship. Looking at the tweets now - the ones that were not completely twisted out of their meaning - I do understand how shocking and hurtful they are, and for that I unequivocally apologise. They were mostly expressions of a young man’s anger and frustrations in a time of regional crises (the wars on Iraq, on Lebanon and Gaza), and the rise of police brutality against Egyptian youth. I particularly regret some that were written as part of online insult battles with the total disregard for how they read to other people. I should have known better. Looking back I see the writings of a much younger person, deeply enmeshed in antagonistic online cultures, utilising flippant, shocking and sarcastic tones in the nascent, febrile world of social media. But this young man never intended to offend a wider public and was, in the real world, engaged in the non-violent pro-democracy movement and repeatedly incarcerated for calling for full equality, human rights and democracy for all. Today, this middle aged father firmly believes all our fates are entwined and we can only achieve prosperous and safe lives for our children together. All the initiatives I’ve led reflect this. I must also stress that some tweets have been completely misunderstood, seemingly in bad faith. For example, a tweet being shared to allege homophobia on my part was actually ridiculing homophobia. I have paid a steep price for my public support for LGBTQ rights in Egypt and the world. Another tweet has been wrongly interpreted to suggest Holocaust denial - but in fact the exchange shows that I was clearly mocking Holocaust denial. I take accusations of antisemitism very seriously. I have always believed that sectarianism and racism are the most sinister and dangerous of forces, and I did my part and paid the price for standing up for the rights of religious minorities in Egypt. I faced a military tribunal and imprisonment for defending Christians in Egypt falsely accused of violence. This weekend was supposed to be the first time I celebrated my son’s birthday with him since 2012, when he was one year old. I have been imprisoned in Egypt for almost his entire life for my consistent promotion of equality, justice and secular democracy. That included publicly rejecting anti-Jewish speech in Egypt, often at risk to myself, defence of LGBTQ rights, defence of Egyptian Christians, and campaigning against police torture and brutality - all at great risk. And, indeed, my freedom was stripped from me for these defences of human rights. These values are core to my identity. It has been painful to see some people who supported calls for my release now feel regret for doing so. Whatever they feel now, they did the right thing. Standing up for human rights and a citizen unjustly imprisoned is something honourable, and I will always be grateful for that solidarity. I have received huge empathy and solidarity from people across the UK, enough to win me my freedom, and I will be forever grateful for this."
BREAKING: Lucy Connolly and her followers thinks people should go to prison for social media posts.
Chris, neither you nor Kemi Badenoch called for Frank Hester's citizenship to be stripped after his violent and racist rhetoric about Diane Abbott and Black women was unearthed. On the contrary, Badenoch demanded Hester be forgiven and your party went onto accept his money. What's driving this clear two tier treatment?
El Fattah is a scumbag who expressed racist anti-white and antisemitic views, called for the murder of zionist, meaning Jewish, civilians and called for London to be burned down and the police attacked. If I were Home Secretary I would revoke his citizenship today and deport
"Blood and soil"
Being a British citizen doesn't make you British.
