The positive results of Rachel Reeves economic plan are taking hold in our economy. From April there are further increases to min wage/pensions, people will have more money in their pockets. Not to save in the Caymans but to spend in our High Streets. That’s good for our country

The stark contrast is set to raise a simple but incendiary question: who is truly paying for Britain?
Racist POS Ratcliffe, or people coming here from all over the world helping to build Britain? #UKNews

We will be getting the long awaited elections bill today, as the Representation of the People Bill gets its First Reading in the Commons.

This is a little earlier than I was expecting, as I know the investigation into foreign financial interference into UK politics was going to feed into it.

Hard to believe that none of the Reform MPs turned up for the debate on Russian interference in our politics. Maybe they were visiting their former Kremlin talking points Welsh leader Nathan Gill in prison? Or en route to their next BBC interview to act as commentators on why Starmer should go?

The Prime Minister has my full support.
Bar 1945, this is the most difficult inheritance a Labour government has ever faced.
The worst thing we can do is turn inward and away from the country.

We need to unite, talk about the big issues and focus on serving the people who elected us.

Keir Starmer is a good, decent man with public service running through his veins. He came into politics for all the right reasons. He’s defied the naysayers many times and he’ll do so again. He’s changing and renewing our country and has restored it’s reputation across the world.

My constituents want me to focus on cost-of-living, jobs, NHS services, tackling crime & providing opportunities for young people.

They're not interested in who is comms director in No 10 or PM's chief of staff.

That's why we need to focus on the country & not look inwards.

PM has my support.

Does anyone else long for the days when political journalism was about reportage and analysis rather than endless tittle-tattle and trying to shift public opinion?

Labour Governments aren’t about self-service, they’re about public service — and this PM embodies public service.

Thats why he’s got a 5-year mandate and my full support. Let’s get on with the job.

Last week, we voted to lift 450,000 children out of poverty and selected 500 schools to get free breakfast clubs.

That's the change we should be focused on, that's the change voters want, and it's only possible because Keir Starmer secured a five year mandate.

He must see it through.

The battle for Britain in the years ahead is between a modern, diverse Britain led by Labour or a dark, divisive Britain under Reform.

All of us in the Labour Party must get behind the Prime Minister, rise to the challenge and deliver a richer, fairer and stronger future.

A reminder to the media and others trying to claim this Government and Starmer are worse than anything they've ever seen, a Government which has only been in power for 19 months. Here's a handly list of the scandals we had to endure from the Tories between 2011-2024.

Gorton & Denton:

I’m afraid it’s down to you to speak for the electorate. I hear so many voters wanting Keir Starmer to remain but some of his own Party and all the opposition wants him gone

You can be our bellwether and speak for us.

Mandleson will be the catalyst to bring in changes that will clean up our politics. And Gordon Brown and Keir Starmer are exactly the duo to pull it off. Every cloud has a silver lining.

This Madnelson business seems like a great opportunity fo kick off House of Lords reform. The press have direct links with many in the Lords and so any changes will be rallied against. For the next few month any changes Labour want can be framed against Mandelson which would gain public support.

Now we have a PM delivering levelling up through his Pride of Place programme with a £5bn allocated budget spread across the country

Is there a way to hide posts on here that don't permit comments? I'm not interested if people just want to shove opinions at me.

Wow, I'd forgotten about all that saga!
I will place a bet that Keir Starmer does not lose his phone, does not lose his WhatsApp messages and is able to provide everything he has.

In 2018 Steve Bannon bragged to Jeffrey Epstein about his influence over European politicians including Nigel Farage and that he could “shut down any crypto legislation or anything else we want”.

What is Reform’s first and only piece of draft legislation?

A pro-crypto Bill.
