So the Tories plan to send asylum-seekers to Rwanda wasn't such a bad plan at all, at least according to UK's misnamed 'Labour' party! Seems Reform UK Ltd. really have Starmer and his bots spooked! Oh for someone with a spine to emerge and challenge that odious little s**t Farage!

#bridgetphillipson can act to make education outside #london more appropriate - achieving #london results by different means. #angelarayner can enable countervailing power to be exercised against monopsony employers by strengthening #tradeunions and employment rights. #heidialexander can improve local transport outside #london systematically. The question is whether the 'boys club' in #downingstreet and the #faragist 'fellow travellers' in #bluelabour will let them do so!
It's time for Blue Labour to fuck off, they have failed.
If they want to fight ReformUK, they must not become ReformUK.
As Haigh says, it's 'naΓ―ve' to carry on with this failed tactic.

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social I've long felt the hatred Blue Labour has for the Left Wing, one wonders why they choose the Labour Party for their career when the Tories would accept them without question.
#BlueLabour
@af just because it has no point doesn't mean they will relinquish their power. It's power and grift which attracted them to Politics...
And the situation is not exactly helped by giving undue attention to 'fellow travellers' of the populist right such as #mauriceglasman of #bluelabour - interviewed at length in the yesterday's #observer !
βThe first six months of this government were awful, irredeemable: no direction, horribly progressive.β

Right-wing Labour Health Secretary Wes Streeting has appointed a health privatiser, who has been behind the pushing of the use of non-doctor 'physician associates' (PAs) both in the NHS and in the private GP surgery business she ran, to run the English NHS Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC).
I wrote to my MP this morning about #BlueLabour and the party acting exactly like the Tories. I couldn't say whether it will get through, or whether or not she'll actually read it herself, but π€
I explained that I vote tactically and that I would not vote for this Labour government again; that people voted to get an actual Labour government and not a Tory continuity government. It's so short-sighted their policies and behaviour defy reason and are driving people either to the LD or Reform π
Excellent thread, take note #BlueLabour and #LabourParty

I never thought I'd say it but Annaliese Dodds has the right idea! Speaking of ideas - anyone know how we, the people, can force a Labour leadership election?
"we need to understand that he has left our house β that of #democraticsocialists and #socialdemocrats β and crossed the street to build a new one amongst our enemies. So be it. We will stay to guard the old house."

I do not think that #keirstarmer has that fantasy. I do suspect that he is only too aware that the #uk will have to choose - and which choice it should make. He has to face the fact that at least two of the opposition parties - the #conservatives , #reformUK and the #democraticunionistparty - are unlikely to support him. Nor will their allies in the media. Worse still he may be facing something of a 'fifth column' within #labour - of which #mauriceglasman and #bluelabour are part.
Labour defy UKβs international duties by sneaky citizenship change
#Labour accused of defying the UKβs international obligations after #covertly changing rules governing whether #asylum seekers can become #British #citizens
Monday UK Govt quietly altered Home Officeβs βgood character guidanceβ to state people will now βnormallyβ be refused citizenship if they entered the UK by irregular means β no matter how long they have lived here
Child poverty predicted to rise in most of UK except Scotland
This is because the SNP Government mitigates the 2-child cap carried forward by Labour UK by funding any further children!

Rich and powerful elites have successfully transformed the planet into a plaything for toxic, warmongering billionaires. And by blocking a global attempt to crack down on tax havens, UK Labour Party prime minister Keir Starmer has proved yet again that his compromised government will do nothing to challenge that corrupt, destructive order.
"There are no women openly involved so far, which some regard as a challenge but for which there is no apology on account of their opposition to #DEI β diversity, equity and inclusion β culture."
#UKPolitics #BlueLabour #SociallyConservative #EconomicallyLeftWing #AntiWoke
Edinburgh's population has to put up with Liebour's minority council administration due the Tories and LibDems. Despite an SNP/Green challenge to the Unionist parties, the bid fell by 32 to 28 votes. More despair follows as Liebour's ineptitude continues in Scotland's capital!
A PARODY song lampooning Keir Starmerβs Labour Government for its cuts to the Winter Fuel Payment has hit number one in the UK charts.
The song Freezing This Christmas β by the artist βSir Starmer and the Granny Harmersβ β hit the top of the Official Big Top 40 chart on December 15.
The song uses the tune of the 1974 Mud classic Lonely This Christmas, which also topped the charts at number one when it was first released.
