He told me a lot about living and escaping from Franco’s Spain. We had a connection because I’d spent a chunk of my gap year living/working in Madrid in Franco’s Spain.
Many people who vote Reform have absolutely no idea how appalling fascism is.

Many have refugees in their family’s past. My husband’s uncle by marriage was on Franco’s death-list (he was anti Franco). He escaped over the Pyrenees + to 🇬🇧 where he met OH’s aunt.
Just as well, as when his mum died, they took him in/brought him up as their own

Disgraceful. The descent into a quagmire of reaction, by the party formerly known as Labour, knows no depth.

Shall we run a national poll, Liz, on who the British public respects more… you or the BBC?

I don’t think you’d actually register a percentage.

This analysis sets out exactly why I joined the Green Party yesterday. Thank you @councilestatemedia.uk for this insightful piece, written without gloat, but with uncomfortable truth.

Factional infighting is going to destroy Your Party before it has even got started
There is something I’ve been thinking for a while, but have been reluctant to write down, but now it needs to be said: the launch of Your Party has been a complete and utter shambles.

This woman is a total NIGHTMARE!
There is literally NOTHING “Labour” about her.
Even as I’m told that I may have to consider voting Labour to win over Reform. - how can I in all conscience do that?

This week Nathan Gill, Reform UK’s Leader in Wales will be sentenced for 8 charges of Russian bribes.

Here’s Farage calling him an “honest, decent and honourable man”.

Let’s not forget that whilst he was taking the bribes, Farage was making similar pro-Russian speeches in the European Parliament.

Dear Mahmood/Labour,

Once the strutting fascist, Yaxley Lennon, is taking credit for your policies, you must know you’ve completely lost your way. You need to get your head out of your arse and your account off X.

Meanwhile… the grifting liar and Brexiter in chief, Farage… rakes it in from jobs *other than* being a constituency MP… and his constituency rots. Made poorer and angrier by his Brexit.

Two stories you may not have seen this week that would be a big deal in a normal country:

1) The ‘dossier’ detailing the BBC’s editing of the Trump speech literally edited Trump’s speech.

2) The NBER calculated that Brexit’s longer term damage to GDP was greater than originally forecast.
