Is anyone demanding that Burnham immediately write some shite about Trump and his tariffs on X?

I like some stuff. I hate some stuff. There's some stuff I don't have any strong opinions on. I particularly like Sunderland AFC and my bikes. https://fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/page/marks-giving-page-272890
If a working family has to claim beneifits we are subsidising employers.
Ending superrich bosses Government subsidies and making them pay decent wages and fair share of taxes is a better way of ending poverty than cutting minimum wages or reducing worker rights "The outrageous reason employees receive benefits is they're not being paid enough" via The UK Against Hate
Removing 5% of VAT :- that's it? That's the grand plan to give people more money? It'll be dwarfed by price rises due to Trump.
Shite after 70 minutes. Defend defend defend - crap. League one tactics.
GB News of all places, now admitting that the Starmer’s government’s policy of ‘smash the gangs’ is starting to work? I have to say ‘Starmer has been the most dishonestly vilified PM in my lifetime.
Are the Adidas stripes on the ref shirts ridiculously wide?
Am I the only one wondering why The Times has suddenly decided to investigate Farage? I mean, good on you, chaps, excellent work & all that; but where the hell have you been for well over 10 years? You never questioned the Brexit lies. What has changed?
#bbc Why are you giving the Tories a political broadcast?
@warrenoates1.bsky.social FWIW You are very much appreciated.
So Burnham lost the Labour leadership election in 2010 (to Ed Miliband), lost again in 2015 (to Corbyn), ran away to Manchester to avoid doing the hard graft of picking up the pieces of the party, let others win a GE with a massive majority, and now waltzes back as a self-appointed messiah. Tosser.
Dear Labour MPs, whatever happens now, you are a bunch of disloyal, ungrateful, self-serving shites. What you are doing to those that voted for you is disgusting. What you are doing to Keir Starmer and his family is utterly shameful. Hang your head in shame if you haven’t stuck by him this weekend.
Glad to goon Politics East Midlands this morning & stand up for our Prime Minister. If you are the silent majority that watches but doesn’t comment, and want calm over chaos, please choose RIGHT NOW to take action now and sign up to Hold the Line Campaign: ➡️ holdtheline.org.uk AND email your MP.
Winning a seat held by Labour since 1983 isn't an achievement, Labour holding a seat won in the GE not 2 years ago isn't an achievement, standing down to facilitate Burnham isn't an achievement. Taking the party from the worst defeat in living memory to number 10 in 4 years is an achievement.
We've finally got a competent government delivering its manifesto, we've got a PM who's rebuilt our reputation on the world stage and repaired our relationship with the EU. We do not need a change of PM, we don't need bloody Burnham, we do need the media to stop treating our lives like a game show.
This bad take keeps getting worse. Reform have a problem with women. Even Reform women have a problem with women. Domestic abuse is not on the players of the match, it’s on the perpetrator.
The Usa/Irán deal talks about $300bn to invest in Iran. There is no way the USA will be paying that to Iran. How are they going to extort it from the rest of world,? Some sort of peace fee ?
If he wins the by election GM will very likely get a reform mayor. It’s one of the most important Mayoral roles, with a big budget. Reform will waste it, they will create racial tension and homophobia in a city with a thriving gay community. I feel sick thinking about it. Burnham and his ego🤬
www.theguardian.com/politics/202... “Trump is utterly unstable. This is why Starmer must resign” The guardian is essentially a Daily Mail Random Story Generator at this stage.
Starmer’s waning influence is apparent at awkward G7 summit
British prime minister was left making small talk unsure if a meeting with Trump and Zelenskyy was going ahead

Man who's been privately educated, gets £5m gifts, can buys £1m houses cash, has a huge EU pension despite doing hardly any work, complains that the system is rigged against him. Sad thing is, his supporters are too fucking thick to see through him.
Farage said Reform would “cap the recruitment of foreign doctors to ensure that British patients are not being put at risk”. Disgusting.
This was the first ever picture I was sent of little Stormzy. He had been hit by a car and had a brain injury. His owner was told he had to be put to sleep. But he didn’t have the money to do it. You won’t believe how good Stormzy looks now… (1/6) 🧵
Sorry Sarah but this is a very shabby behaviour. Simmons insulted the electorate by stepping aside to let Burnham run. As a party member I am disgusted at the duplicity of Labour MPs that are supporting this. If, as I fear will happen, we are forced into an early GE and Reform win LP will be dead.
