Reform led Nottinghamshire Council has blacklisted a local paper for asking questions about what councillors were doing. Farage says he welcomes free speech, that should apply to freedom of the press too. Sign the petition to get them to reverse the decision: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/re...
Reform: Stop hiding from press scrutiny!
Nigel Farage says he welcomes freedom of speech, even if people find it offensive. Surely that should apply to freedom of the press too? So why have Reform's Nottinghamshire councillors - who control ...

Nigel Farage is right about London. I was there yesterday and there was a gang of men armed with sticks, waving them about, while a huge crowd cheered them on.

Reform is imploding, with serious allegations against Rupert Lowe, emotional denials, possible hatchet jobs from team Farage and highly undignified infighting. Meanwhile, I’m just sitting here LAUGHING MY ARSE OFF.

Second:

We need a massive surge in European Defence.

At Thursday’s European Council, I will present a plan to rearm Europe to our Member States.

Lasting security is build on strength.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

There isn’t published evidence that America has spent 350 billion. Official papers suggest around half of that, much of which was spent in America not Ukraine. Europe says it has spent more. Zelenskyy polls lower than he did two years ago but still high and higher than Trump in America.

Another similarity between Badenoch & Corbyn is tendency to dismiss opponents rather than take them seriously as people who hold different views for good reasons.

Corbyn saw opponents as less morally virtuous. Badenoch sees them as stupid. In both cases, they have a fig leaf for their own laziness
The more time goes on, the more I notice Kemi's tendency to dismiss people she disagrees with as "silly," "foolish," or "nonsense" and the more it grates from someone so intellectually lazy.
🚨 NEW: Kemi Badenoch acknowledges the existence of the Lib Dems

- Considers them a “protest party for mainly people on the left”
- "They are not on Twitter, but they are in local communities"
- "They will destroy the whole country..."

Psychiatrist Allan House was permitted, like me, to speak to the assisted dying committee - but only after it first tried to ban @rcpsych.bsky.social’s testimony.

Pls read his letter.

How is the committee remotely serious about protecting the vulnerable if it dismisses the doctors who treat them?

Nigel Farage wants to get rid of the NHS and replace it with US Health Insurance which would be 4x more expensive and worse in every way.

Except for the £600bn a year profit for him and his mates.

Disgusting, pathetic, and contemptible. People like Gove, O'Brien, and Bowman are nothing but the aspiring satraps of a foreign oligarchy. They should have no place in British public life.

Amen.
I’m in Munich and people keep asking me to decode Vance’s speech. OK: In Vance English “free speech” means “Let Musk run your elections” and “democracy” means “let Russia run your elections.” Now move on. 2025 is about what Europeans do, not what Americans say.
