Today, Labour is going to announce a return to PFI for the NHS- which is a total disaster. But they’ve renamed it the “NHS neighbourhood rebuild”. Don’t be fooled 🚨

Never thought I'd hear a Labour ex or current minister arguing against the wealthy paying more tax, whilst inflicting more austerity on the low paid, disabled and pensioners.
I'd say what has happened to Labour, but we know the answer. Tory mole Starmer conned his way to the leadership. 😡

Just read the Covid inquiry report. Crikey. In the general shitshow, this was one of the passages that stood out. So here (as elsewhere), Johnson lied under oath. Consequences? Don't hold your breath.

Trial by jury is now “gaming the system” why are you clapping for fascism Pippa? And also you mean DEFENDANTS.
It comes after our @jessicaelgot.bsky.social revealed that criminals will be stopped from “gaming the system” by choosing trial by jury to increase chances of proceedings collapsing - and that govt was planning radical changes to limit jury trials by next election.

When I asked Nigel Farage's spokesman last week, he flatly denied that his boss had ever racially abused anyone.
Now Farage is only saying he never did so in a "hurtful way".
