Oh yeah, Ukraine is fucked because we didn’t do enough and relied on Trump who was a close friend of that paedophile Epstein. Alice Miller was shouting about the conspiracy of paedophiles in the higher echelons for years. Just like others have shouted about defending Ukraine and allowing attacks

My favourite type of Lib Dem voter to describe to commuter belt Lib Dems is the "Lib Dem Local, Reform General" type.

Someone who's politics can be described purely as "What is the best way of sticking two fingers up to the establishment?"
100% agree with this and the British Election Study bot provides plenty of evidence for it - regularly spitting out actual voters with combinations of beliefs which the terminally online would regard as impossible
oh I've written about this before! one of the big problems with people developing those assumptions is also that they become entirely unable to then engage with normies who represent like.....98% of the population, and whose beliefs are formed on a much more case-by-case basis

They’ll vote Farage because you don’t like him, because he upsets the liberal media, smug populist greens, bland labour smirking liberals, and lefty’s in stupid hats. He’s a cunt but he’s our cunt they’ll say. General chaos we salute him now, as my friend Anthony used to say.

How dare Keith Starmer not be mentioned by Epstein, it’s probably an oversight. Everything wrong with this country over the last 14 years has not been fixed yet…sir Starmer is useless. The reason it’s in a mess is his fault and Trump and Putin and Farage it’s all because of Starmer. I’m Dave Spart

No no wait a minute how many times was Farage mentioned in this section of the paedophile Epstein files? Only 40 times, well he obviously he has done nothing wrong why would anyone think that because he consorted with the paedophile Epstein. Deffo he should be made prime minister.

Every single time Britain exercised a Brexit freedom, we ended up poorer or in a worse situation as a result.

Just look at immigration under Boris Johnson, the dreadful NZ and Australian trade deals, the plight of our farmers, the loss of funds to the poorest regions, etc. etc.

Always thought Gordon Brown was a decent man, he literally stabilised the economy, after the global financial crash, he took a lot of children out of poverty and the country was improving under his leadership, brought down by a cabal of global elites who rape children and inflict Trump/Brexit on us.

Let's ask the question: How many times do the following people show up being named in the Epstein Files:

President Joe Biden: 0
President Barack Obama: 0
MN Governor Tim Walz: 0

President Donald Trump: 4,500

Does any Republican not see the problem?

Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever: “We depended on the big stick of the United States — and now we see that the man with the big stick can also use it against us.

“We have never seen this before: that the United States…dares to threaten us with the big stick.

“This is a turning point.”

Every labour voter and member is wobbling, but then you look at the other options and see far right corruption or popular left sales …hypnotic boob enlargement anyone? You think about staying home but know from the past that’s how we got John Major, Cameron, Brexit, and Johnson and now it’s worse.

Britain is not broken, perhaps wearing thin in parts, which parts depend on your point of view. But broken…no. Farage would like us to think so, and so would others on the right, they present broken and then tell you they’ll fix it. Britain doesn’t need fixing it needs to #rejoineu

Neither the Greens or Reform want to invest in NATO or a European Army. They will say they have their values and all power to them but this is 2026
There is a reason serious governments stay anchored to NATO even without the US
Because values without force do not survive contact with Russia.
February 1, 2026 at 5:41 PM
Zack Polanski speaks fluently about values.
Less so about trade offs.

Zack Polanski speaks about peace as if it is a preference.
Not a condition that has to be defended.

Government is not a purity contest.
It is choosing who pays.
Who waits.
Who loses first.

NATO is not my fave but it is not an abstract concept.
It is the reason the Baltic states still exist.
The reason Ukraine still resists.
The reason Europe has not slid back into open war.
When the Greens talk loosely about demilitarisation,
voters hear something else.
Unprotected. Unserious. Unready
February 1, 2026 at 1:19 PM
There is a difference between moral clarity
and moral performance.
The Greens increasingly offer the second.
Big gestures. Maximalist slogans.
Little sense of consequence.
Politics is not a student motion passed at 11pm.
It is what survives contact with reality.

Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS.

Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies.

AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS.

Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

Farage will probably lead his Conservative party to the next general election.
January 26, 2026 at 8:03 PM
Suella Braverman ( another Tory, who lost in the last election) now joins Reform so obviously it’s becoming more and more obvious that this is the renaming of the selfservatives.
January 26, 2026 at 4:39 PM
Reform will gain momentum, the greens will never get over hypnotic boobs. The left and right will push hard, but in the privacy of the ballot box people will still vote labour and liberal.

Why aren’t politicians more honest in their speech. Right wing populists are, they say what they’ll do and then the progressive left are surprised when they do it. The left continues to mince its words or preach to the converted and equate membership or mass meeting to votes…wake the fuck up.
