RIP Roy Hattersly.... who once famously said (and I'm paraphrasing):
'Without changing my views I seem to have moved from the right wing of the party to the left wing'....
One of the first to articulate the rightwards shifting of the Labour Party that has become increasingly clear since he said that many years ago, and despite also being part of the modernising, post-Micheal Foot grouping; which of course makes his observation even more notable.

Less than two years after a landslide, Labour lost 1,300 local officials in a single night. Reform took 25%. Seven parties carved up the rest. The center-left is not losing because it lacks message — it is losing because it forgot who it was built for. The full breakdown, with the Druid grounding work to read it through:https://twp.ai/9OVuis #UKPolitics #LabourParty #CenterLeft #Politics #Election2026 #Reform #Farage #Democracy #SocialDemocracy #PoliticalAnalysis

US Top News and Analysis | Jamie Dimon warns JP Morgan may rethink new London office if 'very smart' Starmer is ousted as UK PM
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
JP Morgan chief executive Jamie Dimon told Bloomberg that the bank could reconsider its planned multi‑billion‑dollar, three‑million‑square‑foot office tower in London’s Canary Wharf if UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer were ousted, although the firm’s overall strategy would remain unchanged; the project, announced last year and conditional on a positive business environment and necessary approvals, would house up to 12,000 staff, contribute an estimated £9.9 billion to the UK economy over six years, and has already seen JP Morgan pay about $10 billion in additional taxes. Dimon criticised the tax burden, praised Starmer and finance minister Rachel Reeves for their handling of debt, deficits and post‑Brexit relations with the EU, and noted that a government hostile to banks might force a rethink of the London investment, while markets have reacted with mixed movements in gilts amid the political turbulence.

The UK's so-called "#LabourParty" has tweeted a long series of attacks on Green Party #GPEW candidates in #London, as part of its #antisemitism scare. https://x.com/LondonLabour/status/2051936716257189938
This has clearly been a long time in preparation, and it looks very similar to what #LabourTogether did to sabotage #Corbyn leadership.
Some of the comments are a bit OTT, but some are commendable — like Laura-Louise Fairley in #HackneyDowns, who cheered #BobVylan and wants the #IDF banned as a terrorist organisation. 👍👏
