Labour are scared of addressing the elephant in the room. Until they acknowledge the dire effect that Brexit is having on the British economy they haven’t a hope in hell of solving the major problem our country is facing - LACK OF GROWTH. Starmer and Reeves are both deluded and making bad decisions.

I suppose you are right, I was just so excited to find something even remotely close.

Brexit is still rubbish..Good job there’s a solution: #RejoinEU#RejoinMarch

Sadly I suspect that swimming one handed may be very very apt summing up of Starmer. His shortcomings are becoming apparent to the very people who voted tactically to get him in.

Interesting piece from Simon, especially the warning that Starmer might fall into the trap which so convincingly scuppered Cameron. There is one solution and it is very simple, swallow our pride and get back in. The machismo of staying out is so yesterday.

This tweet from Mohammad Ali Shabani is worth sharing here, I’d say: “You're going to read a lot about how Hezbollah command is/was located in Beirut. This is an image of the Israel military's command. It is located in urban Tel Aviv.”

This ability of MPs to continue in their seats when they change parties is one of the great drawbacks of FPTP. Let's have done with it and introduce a modern, fair, and representative voting system.

Rosie Duffield's resignation is going down with her constituents about as well as you might expect... Locals are asking her to stand down and enable a by-election "With the greatest respect Rosie, I voted for the Labour Party, not for you personally."

Starmer's going to be in trouble when he has to register the gift value of this Tory party conference.
