“I’ve said it time & time again - we need to leave the ECHR” says Reform candidate Matt Goodwin
The ECHR protects us all. The rights within it – firmly implanted into UK law by the Human Rights Act – are the reason why families devastated by disasters like Hillsborough could demand justice

🚨Gorton and Denton by-election
Surely by now we can all see that Reform is a party that thrives on division, fuels anger, and uses the scapegoating of minorities to gain support.
We are so much better than that.

Starmer should have listened to his rebels like Rachel Maskell (York Central) rather than spitefully removing the whip then looking a twit when he realised she was talking sense. Honest, informed debate within a party should be encouraged.

Authoritarian Starmer can't change. Left purged, local parties weakened, conference resolutions ignored.
Starmer withdrew whip from 7 MPs for opposing the two child benefit cap, now govt policy.

I’d recommend pushing for a ban on donations via corporate bodies. The donation then has to come from the individual concerned.
This stops the use of a complex structure of companies to hide behind - in particular relevance to overseas donations.

The Elections Bill is really very thin on political finance.
Some loopholes closed, some warm words, but still unlimited political donations.

The fact Nigel Farage's company is called Thorn in the Side Limited is instructive. He doesn't want to run things; too much work. He doesn't want to solve things; too much thought. He just wants to be an annoyance. The classic backseat driver.
Nigel Farage has just moved his company address to...Mayfair. As Private Eye notes, nothing says 'man of the people' like it.
