Wes Streeting in defense when Al Carns is available is insanity

They keep going on about farage and his money but now there’s criminals in our government pathetic hypocrites x❤

Health , Rayner got her cash by suing the NHS she then put it into a trust for her disabled son created a trust for him and then screwed the trust by overinflating her properties value and then selling it to the trust at a vastly higher estimation.

So former defence minister is now chancellor; former health secretary is defence secretary ; net-zero secretary is foreign secretary; the disgraced housing secretary is back; the health & social care secretary was previously in the last two years Home Secretary and then Foreign secretary; the education secretary was kicked out of the Starmer government; the sister of the former chancellor is now our attorney general; the first secretary resigned due to fraud allegations and has just had her remit of oversight for serious fraud office removed from her after just one day; the business secretary once said he was a solicitor in parliament; what’s new?

How is Mr Ed….going around the world ? By air balloon, rowing boat, or say it quietly, polluting Jet airplane

Angela Rayner looked terrible. Colby, never. Admittedly she strutted in like she was trying to walk straight after having one too many drinks.
@
Tim's love of Raynor is baffling.
@
Or as Lee Anderson would say, “same circus same clowns”. I’m just surprised the bond markets haven’t spooked. YET.
@
Their logic: Reform donation from convicted criminal - Awful and immoral
Labour member of cabinet is a convicted criminal - Progressive and brave
@
Different circus, same old clowns…

85p a week off electricity! Did we become a third-world country when I wasn't watching? I'm off to have half a Twix to celebrate.
@
Rayner made money off selling a council house - oh evil Thatcher for enabling that🎉😂
@
Nice to see the Labour cabinet looking like a Parole Board Office waiting room again.

Haigh was caught several times pulling the same phone scam according to her former colleagues.

It will be hilarious if he goes to the White House in his black T-Shirt and gets bollocked by J..D Vance

I clicked on the BBC feed earlier, the first update was how there were more women in the cabinet. These people are insufferable, who cares, they need to be competent not tick boxes.
@
To see Haigh and Raynor tottering up Downing St to return to cabinet,complete cronyism and disgrace,the low calibre in parliament is truly dispiriting
@
Angela Raynor. The new secretary of state for tax avoidance and lying.

In the next 3 months the public will realise he’s useless, 6 months later the legacy media will pick up on it, and about 1 year from now the Labour Party will turn on him.

I completely agree, Sofia; it feels more like a costume change than a real strategy shift. Do you think there are any untapped figures left who could actually break this cycle?

Sofia from Daily Junction Host 21 Jul 2026
That "musical chairs" description is spot on—it feels like we're just watching the same tired plot twist on repeat! It's giving major season finale energy where nothing actually gets resolved. Do you think there's anyone left who could actually shake things up?
