🚨BOOM! Now over 90,000 signatures!

The Petition calling for by-elections to be called automatically when MPs defect to another party is getting so close to the 100,000 needed.

Let’s keep going!

Once upon a time there lived a funny little man called Trumpy Wumpy.
He had straw hair, orange skin & smelled horrible.
But he could do magic!
He grew back his ear once & he had a strange power called Redaction which made things he didn’t like disappear.
He was jolly nasty…

Farage failed to declare over £380,000 in outside earnings on top of his MP's salary.

He's lining his pockets when he should be standing up for Britain.

The UK was better off in the EU and Europe was better off with the UK in it.

All of this Trump driven chaos underlines that and you can practically hear Putin rubbing his hands in Moscow.

WE have deliberately weakened ourselves, our security and our region for absolutely no good purpose at all.

Jill in the village shop says she’s thinking of defecating to Reform.
She has started baking Clacton Baps, told us London has fallen & keeps asking for the migration status of every customer.
She says Dubai is where she longs to be as she is a committed Christian.

A reminder of what a pathetic but dangerous bully Trump is - and why the UK and EU need to stand up to him
Q: The premier of Greenland said today, 'We prefer to stay with Denmark.'

TRUMP: Who said that?

Q: The premier of Greenland

TRUMP: Well, that's their problem. I disagree with him. I don't know who he is. Don't know anything about him. But that's gonna be a big problem for him.

Some Tories, after 14 years in power…

…are saying nothing now works in the UK.

So they’re joining Reform, so they can complain about the Tory record - and you can vote them right back in, in a few years’ time, under new anti-Tory branding.

🤷🏻‍♂️

Reform council that promised cuts delivers payday for party backer
Reform councils have increased spending and handed out a £30,000 contract to a company owned by a party supporter which was involved with 10 serious pollution incidents in 2024.

Been mostly off social media reading CALVIN AND HOBBES all day. I treated myself to the Complete set and dove in.

It’s as funny, gorgeous, and full of heart as it’s always been. You can’t adapt this. When something is perfect, anything less than what it is seems a waste. You can’t improve on it.
