Every time Gordon Brown is interviewed it’s like a grown-up talking; integrity and gravitas. A sobering comparison between towering intellect with a deep social-conscience and the PMs we’ve been lumbered with recently. A thoroughly decent man who history will judge kindly.
Britain is stuck in a doom loop of poverty. With will and ingenuity, communities, charities, companies and government could work together to raise billions and rescue millions of people. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
WOW! Did Larry David just wiped the floor with Donald Trump! Chris Wallace: “So how has the 2020 election — everything that has flowed from it — pissed you off?” Larry David: “You can’t go a day without thinking about what [Trump] has done to this country, because he’s such…

About fucking time! Britons living abroad regain right to vote in UK elections as 15-year rule ends theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
Gordon Brown didn’t issue a resignation honours list because he’d only been PM for 2 years. Truss was PM for 49 days, wrecked the economy and ran, but still feels entitled to name an honours list and receive £125k a year for life as a former PM. We need to beat these chancers.
CEO of Vote Leave Matthew Elliot is about to be placed in the House of Lords by Liz Truss. If he needs to be blocked LIKE. If he needs to be arrested RT.

Fascism didn't start with jackboots. Not even Hitler dressed up as Hitler when it began. It began by dehumanising foreigners, bypassing courts, ignoring laws, scrapping human rights, disenfranchising voters, and normalising the previously unthinkable. It started like this.
Amid all the well-deserved tributes to Alistair Darling, never forget that his balanced approach to deficit reduction after the financial crisis was spot on. If his policies had been continued, Britain would not have suffered the depredations of Austerity- and thus Brexit.

Mishal Husain is utterly brilliant, by the way. Absolute tour-de-force today. Well briefed, lightening fast, holding politicians to account on the facts rather than punch-and-judy Westminster bullshit.
The delay has been catastrophic and it's terrible to have to rely on the lunatic US right for this. But thank God. Thank God, thank God, thank God.
NEW: After months of delay, US House of Representatives passes a $60bn Ukraine aid package. President Biden first requested the spending in October. Will now go to Senate where it’s likely to be passed quickly. Best news Ukraine has had in months but the delay has been costly.
"Americans can always be trusted to do the right thing, once all other possibilities have been exhausted.”
311-112-1: House votes to send $60B in aid to Ukraine, including replenishing the U.S. weapons stockpile previously depleted by the war. More Democrats (210) voted for the GOP bill than Republicans (101). 112 Republicans voted “no,” while Rep. Dan Meuser (R-PA) voted “present.”
