Tbf to Brexit/ Reform, they can't have expected a great turnout by posting a poll immediately after having a platform on BBC 1, on their own Twitter feed.
What, did you want them all to just ONLY put themselves on the vote?

Don't you hate it when people moan about not getting the vote result they wanted.

BBC running a story where the Met have named a final suspect, who has since died, in Stephen Lawrence murder.
Once again, corruption in the Met on a decades old case, happens. Think the current commissioner's job is just to apologise for Cressida Dick/ others.

Look, they lost the files.
And the filing cabinet.
And the room it was stored in.
And the building that room was in, they forgot where that was.
But that was the previous Commissioner and things will definitely be getting better.
Just don't ask to see anything relating to anything if you're an official inquiry with full powers to access all relevant information.
Honestly, it could happen to anyone.

Watching the BBC news report on it it's pretty clear the Met at the time really didn't put much effort into the investigation as they didn't really didn't give a shit about a dead black teenager and fucking up by getting the wrong stepfather's name for the now dead suspect is farcical.

It’ll cost £60k more to send an asylum seeker to Rwanda than it does for them to remain in the U.K. during processing

The thing is, even though they're often white, they're the wrong sort and we don't want them.

The weird thing is that its now just a list of things they are absolutely failing at, including one thing that they actually created themselves.

Yeah a list of failure, makes constant repetition a bit of a mistake.
Raab's Bill of Rights Bill, thrown in the bin today, that's the kind of failure I'll celebrate.

It's literally true of almost any immigrant group anywhere ever though. Younger working people turn up, pay taxes etc. Generally the retired ones who pay no taxes but need a pension don't migrate. It's self selecting.
Exception being English people fucking off to Spain .

Anyone catch Dispatches on C4 last night showing Johnson being totally played by Russian ex-KGB agent and his son now being in the House of Lords? What a cunt.

Yes, but Johnson got flown out to a lot of very enjoyable parties in Italy in return so where’s the harm?

They are clearly doing detailed costed manifesto prep for the election. With prioritization.
There is just no money or space to do anything when you do the maths.. Public sector debt went over GDP last week! Current future spending assumptions are fairly bad. Demand is going up massively on health and social care.
So they are gearing up for a difficult time in government. Feels like actual honest policy making.

Communicating that is going to be their biggest challenge. Damned if they do, damned if they don't - people complained when there were no policies being announced but until there's a manifesto, it's all just noise.

Here's hoping he's going to stick to his pledge to keep lots of the last Labour manifesto, which was actually popular (other than Kier's second referendum stuff, but one suspects he already knew that was going to go down like a lead balloon) as well as vaguely socialist 🤞

Communicating that is going to be their biggest challenge. And even then they'll be plenty of people wilfully misinterpreting things as suits their views.
