I'm no fan of either of them, but I think I've just watched Zia Useless politically disintegrate live on air 😆
"Listen to the people clapping and read the room."
Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp accuses Reform UK's Zia Yusuf of being "disingenuous" over the Conservative Party's approach to illegal migration.

Never met the family she’s talking about, but I know them by reputation.
I've met families where 3 generations have never worked… and a young man trying to break that cycle, only to find his family told him to stop working because his alarm clock was waking them up.
People are making a mockery of our welfare system. Bragging about their free Motability cars, flaunting their new keys on TikTok.
They think it's a victimless crime. It isn't.
18 million working households will each pay £50,000 in taxes for working-age welfare this Parliament.
Every pound claimed by someone exploiting the system comes from somebody else.
Someone who gets up, goes to work and pays their taxes and most likely will never afford a brand-new car.
This wasn’t the aim of our post-war welfare state.
It’s the sign of a deeply broken one.

Michael Gove’s ex, Dr. Lola Salem, has been charged with possessing child pornography.
Why the media blackout of this story ?

Breaking🚨;
🇺🇸 US Treasury Department: "Effective immediately, the US is imposing a 75% tariff on all Japanese electronics, robotics, and auto parts to fix our trade deficit!"
🇯🇵 Japanese Ministry of Economy: "Effective midnight: Tokyo halts all photoresist chemical and silicon wafer exports to US chip fabs and suspends all joint defense radar development. Not a single drop of semiconductor chemical leaves Japan."
🇺🇸 US Treasury Department: "You are shutting down every American microchip factory within 72 hours! This is a direct strike on US national security!"
🇯🇵 Japanese Ministry of Economy: "You weaponized tariffs against your closest ally, ignored decades of partnership, and called it America First. Manufacture your AI chips with executive memos." 🔥
🇺🇸 US Treasury Department: "We will block Japanese banks from accessing emergency dollar swap lines!"
🇯🇵 Japanese Ministry of Economy: "We hold over a trillion dollars of your national debt—if we hit sell at 9 AM, your bond market collapses before lunch. Good luck funding your deficit without Tokyo."

Kemi B from northwest Essex gets £2,700 a month in housing benefit on a six-bedroom Grade II listed farmhouse, even though she's in a relationship with a highly paid investment banker. We need to put a stop to these kinds of welfare abuses.

Russell Brand's children will grow up without their father because he's a rapist.
Russell Brands children are going to grow up without their father because a mentally ill woman claimed she was raped nearly 20 years ago, after having consensual sex and admittedly eating his ass.
She reported these supposed crimes to the media, NOT the police.
This should be a wake up call to men everywhere. Something has to change.

Abdul El-Sayed absolutely destroys Donald Trump.
Q: You recently called President Trump the dumbest effing guy who ever was president.
AES: True.
Q: You've also said Democrats should drop the decorum and treat the president as the unserious fool that he is.
AES: True.
Q: Why are you taking that approach?
AES: Because he's a bully alongside being a narcissist. And the only way you deal with bullies is to stand up to them. Bullies don't bully you because they necessarily care for the thing you have. They bully you because they like to bully you because it makes them feel strong. And the way you take on a bully is to bully back. Because then they learn that this does not make them feel strong. It makes them feel weak and they don't like to feel weak. So they back off. And the more you let a bully get away with bullying, the more they signal to everybody else that this person cannot be stood up to. And so I think it's important for us to stand up to him.

Quite. And imagine his shock when he finds out one of the major factors contributing to rising food prices was Brexit
The amount that food prices have risen is just insane.
They’re up 40% since 2019!
Much of this is directly due to the Tories’ and Labour’s crazy energy policies and big hikes in National Insurance.
They’re also both responsible for the ‘Packaging Tax’. The Tories created it, Labour enacted it.
It costs the average household £52 a year.
We’ll scrap it in our first Budget.
Altogether, with lower taxes, cheaper energy and less mad regulation, we’ll cut your food and shopping bills by £140 a year.

So, the Tories have looked at the last 20 years of austerity, privatisation and neoliberalism and decided that it is the disabled to blame. Classic Tories.
I'm the shadow disability and welfare minister, and I have ADHD.
Here's why I want to cut the benefits bill 👇
