@mrjamesob.bsky.social very surprised James didn’t understand the words to Land of Hope & Glory. ‘Britons never will be slaves’ explains so much. It explains Brexit- Britain cannot be a rule taker….for example

#newsnight tonight it’s Jeremy Hunt. Surely there are Labour politicians they can invite?
#Newsnight why is Laila Cunningham on again? Why is the @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social bigging her up for the London mayorality?
Kier Starmer, Rachel Reeves and the @uklabour.bsky.social forgot that the UK right wing media/social media hate them. Hate them to the extent of destroying the country to get them and any Labour successor out of office. They were naive.
The problem the @uklabour.bsky.social has is that as the salary of an MP is £98k, the current attitude of the working class is to hate you. Fine for Tories and reform. They think Labour MPs should come out of a pit or steel mill but it’s leaders have always been middle class and educated
Any new @uklabour.bsky.social leader will be hammered by the press after a week’s grace period. Starmer forgot this when he was first elected as PM that whatever he did he’d be hammered. A £2000 suit vs £5,000,000 payment to promote the policies of a UK expat?
Kier Starmer should resign tomorrow and walk away immediately and install David Lammy as PM.
No one has come out to say what they would do differently to Kier Starmer. The personal animosity towards him is incredible. A working class man who worked his way up to the top of his profession. But we Brits love toffs who those that act like toffs
@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social what happened to Michael Gove? He’s aged 10 years in the last 12 months.
www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025... I thought the police had to state the race of the perpetrator?
Man in UK charged with 56 sexual offences against ex-wife
Philip Young, 49, charged along with five other men as alleged victim waives right to anonymity

One of the reasons flu is rampant in the UK is because people are dressing like it’s August in December. Old men in shorts, non-waterproof trainers, flimsy tops and skirts. It’s December folks.
@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social why not have the current mayor of the West Midlands rather than the old one?
I note how the race of the Kirk shooting suspect hasn’t been mentioned. If the suspect was a black male it would have been mentioned over and over.
@mrjamesob.bsky.social how can a Manchester MP claim a flat in Brighton & Hove as her primary residence? Unless she plans to step down as an MP at the next election?
Dear @tflbot.bsky.social change the underground barriers to only allow someone with a ticket through. I got hit today at Vauxhall by someone pushing through after me having used my ticket. Why am I being violated by cheats ?
Current West Indies cricket team look unfit, have poor technique in batting, bowling and fielding. Where is the fighting spirit of the Lloyd/Richards era when they played for black pride?
@mrjamesob.bsky.social one issue that separates the UK education environment versus other nations is that the UK culture starts from an anti-education perspective so our children need to be more corralled into respecting school and learning compared to many other cultures hence a need for uniforms.
Jonathan Reynolds to visit China to revive key joint trade commission UK determined to be a 3-way bridge between Europe, US and China.
@mrjamesob.bsky.social the Cambridge league tables would have been used to identify those most capable of a future academic career long ago
#Newsnight promoting a pornographer as news. It’s ok as it’s a woman. Would they promote a male pornographer? We don’t need this on our TV
@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social #Newsnight someone has to pay for the benefits explosion. Interview taxpayers who aren’t getting anything in return for their taxes but are being asked to support ever increasing numbers of disabled or unable. Something has to change.
@mayorwestmids.bsky.social should have been on Broadcasting House this morning to talk about the bin strike. Being in China is a poor excuse when you are 8 hours ahead of UK. Andy Burnham would have been on the radio. Wake up Mr Mayor!
SpaceX’s Starship explodes in second failure for Musk’s Mars program How can the FAA investigate Starship when Musk is threatening to fire anyone he doesn’t like?
@mrjamesob.bsky.social Donald Trump wants to be ‘World Landlord’. Buying and selling nations not just real estate
The way to cut crime in the UK is the introduction of a national ID card. His first and subsequent interactions with authorities would have been recorded and flagged as they passed the buck with Axel R
@uklabourparty.bsky.social the skill of Trump is to treat voters like a TV audience. Everything he does is as if it’s part of a tv show. He’s not interested in politics and politicians. That’s just scenery and props.
Americans love cartoons and Trump is presenting a cartoon version of who Americans think they are
UK needs 100,000 extra police officers not 10,000. Country is out control
@uklabourparty.bsky.social start acting like politicians not accountants. The country wants the party to help them not just publish a clean set of accounts at year end. Look what happened to Harris. The decision on waspi women isn’t good. These unpopular decisions are mounting up.
