Amazingly, Zahawi only got round to deleting the below after the press conference announcing his defection to Reform.

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

Says he never saw any under age girls.
Probably because he had little boys flown in for him.
Why is this disgusting paedophile protector being given airtime???
Lord Mandelson refuses to apologise for continuing his association with "best pal" Jeffrey Epstein after Epstein had been convicted in 2008 (Mandelson stayed at Epsteins lavish Manhattan townhouse in 2009 & they remained in contact as late as 2015) #BBCLauraK

Reform UK's Tom Pickup, has been suspended by the party after posting in a far-right Whatsapp group where other members posted calls for Keir Starmer to be shot.

Don't just like it, share it.

Reform Watch: Racism, racism and more racism
Each week we cast over eyes over what Reform have been up to – from bizarre proclamations to the detail of how their attempts to run councils are going.

Going to cook a new Italian dish for dinner tonight. Currently salting my aubergines (no that’s not a euphemism 😆🤣😂).
Pics to follow if it turns out…..

Have just started this. So far so good I’m finding it far more accessible than ‘The Black Book’ which is the only other book by LD I’ve read.

Starmer doesn’t think what Trump’s done is illegal.
So I’m going to seize my neighbours flat, take over his bank account, have him dragged away in handcuffs and shoot anyone who gets in my way.

I’m currently reading this and it’s one of those books you can’t put down but don’t want to finish.

Nice to see the piss coloured oaf hasn’t invaded anywhere today.
But it’s still early……

Starmer is waiting to hear what Farage says before deciding which way to jump……
Spray paint a plane and they'll detain you without trial and call you a terrorist.

Kidnap a foreign head of state - and Keir Starmer will make it clear we've played no part in it but will wait for the scheduled press conference in a few hours before potentially condemning it

If Nicolás Maduro is going to be indicted by the U.S. government for running drug trafficking networks, then Trump should also be indicted for participating in a child trafficking network.

“Despite a massive majority I’m terrified of a party of five political pygmies led by a crackpot.
“Therefore 2026 will see me moving further to the right, ignoring the working class and my core voters in order to try and stay in power”.

My year of reading which was kicked off in January by a reading spa at Mr B’s Emporium in Bath.
With the exception of Mick Herron these are all by authors I’d never read before.
Already compiling my next ‘TBR’ list!
