Obama: Even though I'm the hope and change guy, there are things I'm worried about. I'm worried about how quickly basic democratic rules and norms have been weakened. I'm worried about how Republicans in Congress refusing to buck the President even when he's out of line. I'm

Are you completely fucking insane? If you commit a serious crime in a country where you’re not a citizen *of course* you should be deported.

Because there's nothing progressive about protecting sex offenders or violent criminals. A functioning immigration system must allow us to get rid of those who breach our rules. It is good for law-abiding migrants and Brits to know there are consequences to breaking our laws.

This is a great story Farage wants to destroy the National Health System because he will make an enormous amount of money out if it

Huntingdon is a useful corrective for those who think a train driver "just sits in a cab and pushes a lever", or that the role of train guard can be abolished without consequence.

I despise Jihadism and want to see this repugnant, violent, fascistic ideology wiped of the face of the earth. But so many rightwing loons desperately want to try and link every single act of horrific violence in the UK to Islam regardless of the evidence.

I actually live in a small English village. It’s total codswallop what Elon Musk is saying. We’re not “hobbits under siege” we’re ordinary people - how rude to patronise us like this. It’s fear-mongering dressed up as folklore.

As the world gathers in Brazil for COP30, the stakes could not be higher. Leaders must join together and do what it takes to protect the people we serve, and the planet we share. My op-ed with Mayor of Rio Eduardo Paes for The New Statesman ⬇️ newstatesman.com/spotlight/sust…

'As record numbers leave New Zealand, why are most people choosing Australia?' Because it's close by and the accent's nearly the same? (as every English person is thinking reading this) theguardian.com/world/2025/nov…

For the propagandists in Russia and the US who keep lying about how dangerous Europe is, it’s actually much safer than both of those countries

This is the most unbelievably insane thing I've ever watched. English people in the shires are like hobbits. They live in small villages of 500 but don't understand danger or modern life until 1,000 foreigners turn up at each of these hobbit villages and start abusing their kids.

Why are so many people pretending not to know what the term terrorism means? It doesn't mean terrifying violence. It has to be in pursuit of a political objective. Just because an act is not deemed to be terror-related, it does not mean it is any less horrific, evil or terrifying

I just watched Stephen Crean interview on the BBC about the train attack. This man confronted the attacker with no weapons, he did it to make enough time for people to escape to safety & risked his life. He is the sort of man I want to see on the Kings honours list! A REAL HERO!
