Understand this about Reform.
If ever they get into power, it is the end of our free society.
You won't be able to vote them out, or even say bad things about them.
Your rights will disappear overnight. Look at Trump's America.
You could be jailed for nothing and never get out!

"I don't see any reason why we can't do what we did with opiates, what we did with tobacco. We need to regulate Big Tech," Scott Galloway tells Tim Miller. "All the problems you're talking about are fixable, and the illusion of complexity is what Big Tech wants you to be overrun with."

When ministers defended Starmer over Mandelson’s links to Epstein this week, they rushed to X - a platform that lets users strip photos of women and girls.

Someone send more condoms to Italy immediately. They’re still doing public health there.

Most of us around here have been looking out at this for pretty much 40 days solid, and it's a drag. The forecast here is blue skies and sun on Saturday (before more grey wet for endless weeks again) and if it comes to pass we'll all be outside staring uncomprehendingly upwards, open mouthed.
