Questions about Mandelson, his heinous crimes and how much Starmer knew.
Dan Norris, elected as Lab MP, arrested - 2 counts of rape.
Tulip Siddiq sentenced to 4 years.
I wonder why Labour have made 3 attack videos about me in the last 24 hours?
They're done. Finished. Toast.

Reform are now saying that Black and Asian and other ethnic minorities are not necessarily British, even if they were born here.
Think about that.
This is literally one of the first steps on the road that leads to fascism and concentration camps.

Birmingham appears to have abandoned most implementation of road traffic and environmental regulations. Private vehicles commonly driven at excessive speeds, clog bus lanes, routinely parked at bus stops, on corners, on lawns, on pavements, blocking pedestrians. Pedestrians have lost all to vehicles

1) We're not calling for £476m to be spent. It already is - this is about diverting it to actually helping.
2) Why "cruelty" in question? The £476m we're spending is part of an operation tear gassing babies.
