“Last show next week and we have Ed Davey and Nigel Farage , two leaders of the smaller parties “
One has 4 MPs the other 72 but both according to her are smaller parties.
Shameless.

#bbclaurak asks the Sun Editor if Angela Rayner is a leadership contender.
No , is the reply as she hasn’t cleared up her tax affairs which working class people who pay their tax expect of her.

So as I struggled with miscarriage after miscarriage before having my 🌈 baby, Reform would seriously think I should pay more tax during that agony.
This policy isn’t just a slippery slope to a handmaids tale dystopian future - it’s a deliberate step towards it

Britain has dethroned a prince, forced Mandelson to resign, & lost confidence in Starmer because Rep. Thomas Massie & I forced the release of the Epstein files.
What is America doing to hold the Epstein class accountable?
We need to haul these powerful men before Congress.

Epstein made $10k+ payments to Mandelson's partner around the time of the email leaks.
Mandelson says he thought the payments were bursaries from an educational foundation.
We're not allowed to say famous people are lying. But is Mandelson lying?

With the Mandelson resignation news the identity of the Labour politician #farage was talking about two weeks ago starts to make sense.
The Bannon, Mandelson, Farage relationships were always visible.
Just asking questions as Nige would say.

It's been 10 years of watching him cry like a baby at 1:00AM about people talking about him. His supporters think this is normal behavior. And now he's threatening to sue Trevor Noah? We know you were on the island dude. He's such an infant and I can't wait until we have an adult in charge again.
