Theirs no point in Burnham, going in a coalition with the Greens & other parties if he’s a Labour leader. He should go Greens. And make Blair worry even more !
STARMER stand down you trying 2 pass on an EXCUSE n BLAME others once again SHOWS YOUR INEPT LEADERSHIP I CANT BREATHE I HAVE BEEN STABBED this should have been DEALT with RIGHT AWAY NOT EVEN at this time in the FUTURE
Labour: government by riot shield. It's mad how Labour's response to the rejection of the changes they are making is "we need more change". It isnt rocket science; stop the boats, reduce crime, dont have a police force that hates white people, have a decent economy, lower taxes or at least give people a reason to pay them. I pay $600 a month in tax in the country I live in, but there is zero crime and the streets are spotless, with road works being completed in a day (a mile of a road a day lets say). What are you paying tax for in the UK?
What about Henry?
BBC am writing from Ethiopia to share concerns reported from Arsi, Oromia Region, regarding violence affecting Christian communities, including Orthodox Christians. Local residents have expressed fear and distress due to alleged attacks and damage to churches.
Some reports suggest that armed groups, including those locally referred to as OLF-Shene, may be involved in these incidents.
Many people in the affected areas feel that the situation has not been fully reported or adequately investigated. I respectfully ask your team to look into these reports and, if confirmed, provide fair and balanced coverage of the situation.
Thank you for your attention and humanitarian work.

Why were Restore not on Question Time last night – is it Traitor TV policy to silence the favourites?
How can you 'RESTORE' trust in politicians ?
How can you 'RESTORE' trust in the media ?
Easy, you gut them both and replace them entirely.
Always interesting what topics the BBC turns comments off for. This video subject is open but Henry Nowak's death not.
