I am honoured to call my friend, he is the bravest man I know.
Today I reminded the Minister that he is a British citizen. Why is it that the UK govt has failed to sanction the 29 officials who persecuted him whilst the US, Canada and Latvia have acted decisively?

There’s been a lot of misplaced criticism of this decision to stop singing ‘Delilah’
The song depicts the murder of a woman by a jealous partner
For context, approx 2 women a week are murdered by a partner or ex-partner
It’s time to sing something else

"I warn you not to be young."
"I warn you not to fall ill."
"I warn you not to grow old."
In 1983 Neil Kinnock warned Britain of the dangers of Tory government.
40 years later, every single thing he warned of has come true.

Det mest besynderlige ved afslutningsdebatten på DR er de midaldrende mænd, der dukker op og forklarer danskerne, hvordan verden hænger sammen. De sidder også klar til at uddybe på nettet. Shit, det er gammeldags #dkmedier

Incredible. Now Berlusconi 🇮🇹 defending his friend said that “Putin just wanted to replace the Zelensky government with a government of decent people.” This man is a disgrace.

I’ve always said no rules were broken when I was in Durham.
The police have completed their investigation and agreed: there is no case to answer.
For me, this was always a matter of principle. Honesty and integrity matter. You will always get that from me.

So worried about this arrest
Quote Tweet
.@vkaramurza has been arrested in Russia and will go on trial tomorrow, just hours after speaking out against Putin's murderous regime. He clearly hit a nerve.
I know he'll fight this with the same courage that's seen him overcome 2 assassination attempts.
Stay strong my friend twitter.com/SKinnock/statu…

Keir Starmer spoke for the nation today. In just 7 minutes of powerful oratory he captured the anger, the sadness and the outrage that is felt by millions. And then he calmly and clearly articulated why Boris Johnson is utterly unfit for public office. Devastating and true.
