Since #bbclaurak is trending, let’s remind ourselves that ONE MONTH ago, the BBC invited Mandelson on for a soft-ball interview on her show. While HIS CLIENT , Palantir’s Louis Moseley appeared as a pundit
Both, as I wrote at time, were ‘abject failures of journalism’

When we asked Reform if they used NationBuilder, Richard Tice, Reform’s deputy leader, denied it. That denial was signed with a ‘statement of truth’. But we can now reveal that in July 2025, Tice and Reform had to make an embarrassing admission – Tice was wrong and Reform does use NationBuilder.
Landmark case against Nigel Farage’s Reform reaches the High Court
When voters asked Reform about their data, the party ignored them – now they’ll have to explain in court why they don’t listen

Who cares about making sure the four and a half million children in poverty don't go hungry? Certainly neither Reform nor the Tories.

In this week's column I seek to explain Keir Starmer's flat refusal to change our electoral system, even though its gross unfairness could put Reform UK in power on <30% of the vote. The reasons, I believe, are deeply cynical and disturbing. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
If Reform ever wins power in Westminster, it will be because of Labour’s cowardice | George Monbiot
Starmer could improve our unfair electoral system to stop the hard right, but he won’t. All the party has left are threats about ‘splitting the vote’, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Awkward for Farage because a good number of Clarkson's many hardcore fans are natural Reform voters and will listen to him.
✅ Clarkson is right, people aren’t voting Reform for policies 👉there aren’t any.
It’s a protest vote powered by nostalgia not a plan for future.
Reform use farming as a prop. Their real plan is USA trade deal, hormone-treated imports and they’ve appointed Ben Goldsmith

Copied from elsewhere. This piece of filth Joseph Boam is a Reform Councillor. Be in no doubt that Reform would set up an armed UK ICE force if elected, staff it with masked convicts just as Trump has done and use it to terrorise the UK.
