No surprises here - Momentum backs Long-Bailey, seen as the ‘Corbyn continuity candidate’, for next Labour leader #LabourLeadershipElection #Momentum #LabourLeadership #Labour
We're backing Rebecca Long-Bailey for Labour Party leader.
She's the only candidate that will take on the political establishment and give power back to communities. This powerful speech shows just that.

President Trump is officially impeached. Democrats approve 1st article of impeachment on "abuse of power". 2 Democrats vote no. For a moment, there was 1 Republican yea, but it was reversed.

- still nerve wracking for Tories
- last 36 hours still matters
All too easy to forget that the #HongKongProstest is still ongoing with no signs of a lax in tensions #HongKongers #HongKongPoliceState

Senator Warren, once called the race’s underdog, drops in Ipsos poll to just 9% -her lowest showing since August. Although still one of the more popular candidates in the Dem primaries, is this the beginning of the end for #Warren2020? #Democrats #president #Democrats2020
