“If the Liz Truss Show is the “home of the counter-revolution” then the British establishment can rest easy. Truss’s opening monologue is delivered with all the verve and passion of a minimum wage hotel worker explaining at check-in where breakfast is served and how to find the elevators.”
Why are we funding pathetic, vengeful Liz Truss to lie about Britain?

Farage the politician *is* Farage the schoolboy losing his shit over seeing the name ‘Patel’ on the school roll and telling black pupils to go back to Africa. There’s really no difference. Except now he wants (and may be bought) the power to deport those people.
It’s not the past. It’s now.

Dear @Keir_Starmer

Considering how easily the Orange Fascist in the WH has dismantled democracy in the USA while supporting Putin, should your government not be working day and night to sure up the guardrails of the UK democratic system to protect it from Farage and Reform?

It is OK for business people to go into politics, but they should leave their business interests behind at that point. Lobbying should also be outlawed. Trump is a prime example of the chaos caused by putting business before country, and Farage would do the same to the UK.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

I’m not a huge fan of Piers Morgan but on BBC Newsnight last night he called for a second referendum to rejoin the EU and suggested the country would vote overwhelmingly to rejoin. Well said Piers. I’m warming to you.

The only reason Gill stopped being the Reform UK leader in Wales was because he failed to win a seat in the 2021 Senedd election.

Zia Yusuf keeps trying to make this sound like this is ancient history, and Reform washed their hands of him, but nothing is further from the truth.
