What would Clement Attlee do? Wisdom from Britain's best PM and the father of the #NHS. Parody. Plugging a play.

No shame department.
Don’t want to go over the top, but this is absolutely jaw-dropping. Someone who was in the cabinet when legislation on voter ID was agreed and went through parliament acknowledges it WAS an attempt to gerrymander the elections huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/j…

KING CHARLES CORONATION CORONATION costing British TAXPAYER £100 million Despite King Charles reportedly having a personal net fortune of £600 million. RETWEET if you agree this is an obscene waste of public funds, especially during a cost of living crisis.

She worked hard. Despite being written off, with support and determination she turned her life around, put herself forward to serve - and was elected. Too many people are told they’re not good enough and get held back from fulfilling their potential. I’m proud of who I am.

I'm disappointed to say that, despite our best efforts, the disappearance of nearly £60B £58,800,000,000 of taxpayers' money has gone unnoticed by the British Media Unbelievable right? Let's keep going!

This is the biggest scandal in British politics. You can only vote if you have a passport, photo driving licence or OAP bus pass. A deliberate Tory attempt at voter suppression. If we had a national photo ID card system it might have been accepted. We don’t and it is a scandal!
Younger voters are being disenfranchised in London and across the country. And it’s a direct result of Government policy.

I have never known such love and support in my life than I’m getting this morning (England World Cup goals aside, possibly). I want to thank each and every one of you. It means a lot. I’ll continue to try and speak up for those poor souls that have no voice. Cheers all. 👊🏻

Important message from a journalist who, sadly, cannot speak out because of his contract of employment.

I condemned communist position at the time. Glad to see that Francis Beckett's new play about Harry Pollitt (back at @GatehouseLondon on 27 March) endorses my view.
The Betrayal of the Left, a book of essays which condemned the Communist Party of Great Britain for backing the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, was published #OnThisDay 1941. The book included contributions from George Orwell, John Strachey and Harold Laski.

How could a man with so little judgement that he trusts Isabel Oakeshott ever have been appointed to a responsible job in government?

My government had a clear understanding of the constitutional role of the king and never asked him to help fix political differences. The present government, from Cameron to Sunak, has shown itself careless and cynical about the monarchy.
This is a terrible mistake by the government. We should never bring the monarchy into political disputes.

Johnson here, advocating a Nobel peace prize for Trump, now trying to do everything in his power to make sure there is no more peace in Northern Ireland. An evil man, attracted all his life to other evil men.

This is right, and I voted enthusiastically for Starmer. The war against the left, via the courts and the media, threatens to overshadow any other message Starmer wishes to convey, and represents Labour's one chance of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Replying to @owenjonesjourno
Starmer supporters think that the Labour leadership should wage a ceaseless war against the left, but if the left complain about our destruction, then we are causing division and helping the Tories. Absolutely epic gaslighting.

It supports the view of @DonaldSassoon that David Cameron was the worst PM ever. His lazy, louche incompetence did more long term damage than Truss and Johnson combined.

A typically humane and reasonable set of new year wishes from John McDonnell.
2022 - workers striking, people freezing & children going hungry. So my New Year’s wishes for 2023 are success to strikers, fair taxes to end poverty & fully fund our public services, an economy to protect our planet for future generations & asylum seekers being welcomed here.
