Mamdani taxed the rich and suddenly libraries work, potholes get fixed, childcare exists, and workers get paid more. That's why billionaires are losing it and want him gone!!!

Why is the BBC reporting it as inadvertently? Nigel Farage failed to declare £380,000 of income on time. A total of 17 breaches of MPs code of conduct. Stop sanitising him.

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, French President Emmanuel Macron just delivered the most powerful rebuke of Donald Trump we've seen yet. This is incredible.

@MartinSLewis Biological Sciences at Bristol in 2017. Met some lovely people, faced challenges, and grew as a person. I love Bristol, it’s a great place! With supportive and knowledgeable lecturers. Financially, it helped me get a specific job in ecology but not above average.

In med school, I learned that Huntington's disease was one of the most devastating inherited conditions. It caused progressive neurological decline, starting around age 30. There was no treatment. Now, Huntington's has been treated for first time. This is why we fund science.

Hi @Ofcom I realise you're very busy letting British media become the propaganda arm of the far right but can you explain how Sky News played an hour straight of Nigel Farage telling lies unchallenged today?

Hey - Reform voters! Last night your party voted against The Employment Rights Bill to ban fire & rehire and zero hours contracts. They voted against you getting sick pay day one, and against you being protected against unfair dismissal from day one. This what you want?

@UKLabour You need to get better at PR immediately, you’ve done good things for country but they are not publicised nearly enough and not known to the general public - you need someone constantly doing interviews and being in front of the media
