    Dear all, Today I am launching my new political blog: 'New Labour 2.0: Reinventing Labour'. newlabour2-0.co.uk The purpose of it is to set out ideas for how Labour can reform, can eventually regain power and then transform our country.

    I've had a look at your Twitter feed. I've seen no stated opposition to paedophilia, necrophilia, arson, rape or murder. According to your warped logic, can I just blithely assume you support such things?

    No one saw race three years ago. No one saw race tonight. Apart from Twitter grifters

    Good thread. Although why so reticent about showing who the men intimidating her were? If they were old white Reform voters, you would not hesitate to do so

    So, just to understand this.... The UK, with a non-Scottish singer, comes 2nd in the Eurovision. And you want a UK-based Eurovision to be held in Scotland. Which you don't believe should be part of the UK?

    To be fair, it must be deeply hurtful for black people to walk around the UK and see nothing but white postboxes everywhere they go. I think we should choose a neutral colour in future. Red perhaps?

    Perhaps I am being thick, but could you say how you would have preferred them to phrase the email? They've obviously considered it carefully (note the phrase about 'feeling awkward'), but at the same time require an answer to an important question.

    This is an almost uniquely bad take. It takes real effort and a fair amount of ingenuity to be this wrong. So glad you could no longer be a parliamentary candidate for my party.

    Good sense for you to clarify the purpose of the dog in this scenario

    Your national flag i.e. the union jack, would not hurt once in a while
