UK gov’t to artificially inflate energy prices from offshore wind to entice investment …. A labour government would generate offshore wind energy under public ownership with lower costs for consumers.


Can Brexiters now stop pretending? It verged on treason when those with power and influence (who knew damn well it’d be a disaster) ploughed on regardless and knowingly f**k our economy, for self-interest. I’ll forgive you all if you stop pretending it’s not been a shit-show.

So the Tories want people to « stand up and fight ». Funny that, because whenever workers stand up and fight this lot want new laws to stop them !

This is totally bonkers. What are these freedoms the Tories have won? I can’t think of one such thing. I have a near endless list of what we have lost, from free speech to the right to strike onwards. Maybe she’d like to explain?



Are you on acid Jeza ?

What a speech by the Prime Minister. I’ve sat through a fair few PM conference speeches now, that was something else. No messing around, decision after decision to improve our long term future. Courage too - which is why I am proud of my boss today

The Tories are furious about the state of Britain today. Just wait until they find out who's been in power for the last 13 years.


…he was kicked out by the police ! The police Ffs ??!!

I was stood next to the heckler. In quite a soft tone he said “there’s no such thing as gender ideology” as Braverman was listing things she thought “woke” institutions were adopting. Security immediately swarmed him and escorted him out.



Sunak’s refusal to rule out party membership for Farage is almost as pathetic as Cameron’s spineless acquiescence on EU referendum. Party before country … same old self-interested and self-serving Tories. Please don’t ever vote for this lot again ! theguardian.com/politics/2023/…


Is that the old bill ? Confused why the police are dealing with a mild (at most !) heckler ! Gosh.

This is not a great look for the party of free speech. I’ve seen heckling in my time and I am not sure this meets the threshold

Back in March I predicted the Tories would radicalise if smashed. They've radicalised in advance of being smashed ... they'll become a far right party of open racists once freed of international law obligations 👇🏽 theneweuropean.co.uk/if-the-tories-…

Population of England is about 56.5m. 7.7m awaiting NHS hospital appointment (1 in 7) 1m gone private. 2.5m chronically ill. 1.5m died in last 5 yrs whilst waiting for hospital appointment. Tragedy created by Tory austerity, income cuts, poor housing/food, public service cuts.


Incredible - has Farage joined the Conservative party or is it the other way around ?

Celebrating the Farage take over. It’s the party, party party Party.

The #RejoinMarch has also blended into the #ULEZ march. Dave meant to say Crackpots by the way!

#RejoinMarch 1000's here for the march. More from us later.


More nonsense from the Tories. Braverman says green policies add to cost of living crisis as her gov’t removes obligation for landlords to make properties more energy efficient saving private renters money !! Duh ?! theguardian.com/politics/2023/…


What a strange and backward looking lot these really are. The UK desperately needs progress, not regression ! Don’t let these lot into power ever again. theguardian.com/environment/20…
