Elon Musk openly called for violence on our streets yesterday. I hope politicians from all parties come together to condemn his deeply dangerous and irresponsible rhetoric. Britain must stand united against this clear attempt to undermine our democracy.

We face the threat of a far-right government for the first time in our history. To stop Reform we need to rebuild our lost support with real Labour values. That change must begin now. If it doesn’t, Labour will face disaster in the 2026 elections and time will be up for the PM.

Just 5 days ago, Keir Starmer welcomed Isaac Herzog into 10 Downing Street. Today, a UN Commission has found that: “Israeli President Isaac Herzog, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and then Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, have incited the commission of genocide.” Genocide.

The truth is that there is plenty money out there. It’s a case of politicians being bold enough to take tax decisions that would create a better and more fair country 👇 #WealthTax

Right now, Donald Trump is at a lavish banquet at Windsor Castle, while in Gaza a genocide is unfolding. He alone can stop the assault on Gaza City, end the aid blockade and secure the release of hostages - Keir Starmer must make that clear to him before this visit ends.

Read this article and tell me that there’s no money and that people should just accept that cuts to vital public services is necessary. Priorities? Tough choices? Sickening.

This is another worrying moment. There is absolutely nothing in this which should result in the arrest of 4 people. If GOV.UK really cared about 'malicious communications' they wouldn't be rolling out the red carpet for someone who is the king of 'malicious communications'.

Whilst not surprising, this is very worrying for those of us with a valid blue badge. Can anyone come up with a more secure alternative which would be harder to fake? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I have heard the slogan “I want my country back” a lot in recent weeks. Well, I want our country back too. Here’s my list of what I want back.

The reply from Blackpool Council shows what we're up against unfortunately. Not sure the spokesperson understands per head of population figures. It doesn't matter how big Brighton is compared with Blackpool and don't get me started on "taxi rank after 6pm". bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

This has also made me think more generally about blue badge provisions. There's around 34 million cars in the UK & around 3.2 million blue badge holders. By my calculations at least 10% of all parking spaces should be for blue badge holders & probably slightly more due to abuse.
