It's clear that the Green Party are the way to keep Reform out of Manchester.

We are already on the ground in Gorton and Denton - and we are going to be campaigning for every single vote.

As a man of the people, my trip to Davos was paid for by an Iranian billionaire that I have been advising as part of my grift for years.

These people hate Britain.

Wake up.

Why is nobody talking about how the Epstein files are now 30 days past due?

Given all the other recent Conservative defections he's accepted, "I've always thought Robert Jenrick was a fraud" reads more like a recommendation than a criticism

Anne Marie Morris,
Lee Anderson
and Andrea Jenkyns.

Good morning.

A regular reminder: a tiny few hoard staggering wealth and own much of the media, while millions struggle to survive.

That’s not an accident. It’s a choice made by those in power.

Tax wealth. Fund public services. Build an economy for everyone - not the 1%.

“It seems unlikely not to have occurred to [Farage] that the reason he is so popular… is that so many people have had enough not just of people like Zahawi, but in this case, people who literally are Zahawi”

Here’s to hoping their piss-taking opportunism does for them both.

(Times sketch)
Extract: Farage's one-man band adds a disgraced banjo Tom Peck Political Sketch the sketch writers keep saying we're a one-man band," " said Nigel Farage, 48 hours after some idiot sketch writer in The Times had called Reform UK a one-man band. The sketch writers clearly needed to be taught a lesson but what happened next was surely overkill, when out on to the stage and back into the political big time strode Nadhim Zahawi. How would we describe Reform UK now? What part of the one-man band is the party's newest defector? Is there even such a thing as a discredited mouth organ? A disgraced banjo? There was no time to think about that. First there was a pre-roll video of Zahawi, a stirring montage biography of the kind you used to see on the X Factor judges' houses episode, immediately before a painter and decorator from Croydon murders a Michael Buble cover next to Simon Cowell's swimming pool. "l've gone from councillor to chancellor of the exchequer," Zahawi said, looking beyond the camera and into the middle distance, where a brighter future may theoretically lie. Zahawi is extremely proud of his time as chancellor of the exchequer, which lasted exactly two months and was mainly spent paying his own tax bills to HMRC. "Westminster watchers", , as Zahawi called us, may recall the very first thing he did as chancellor, which was to get hold of a piece of HM Treasury notepaper and use it to write a letter to Boris Johnson, who had appointed him fully 48 hours before, to tell him to resign. "Britain is drinking in the last chance saloon," said Zahawi, over soft string music, "and it really does need Nigel Farage as prime minister." In the questions at the end, someone had the temerity to bring up a social media post, written by Zahawi in 2015, in which he had said of his new best mate: "I would be frightened to live in a country run by you." Zahawi let out a little smile. "If I thought this man next to me had an issue, in any way, with people from my background, I wouldn't be sitting next to him," he said, and then he reached over and placed a loving hand on Nigel's elbow. Smiles can say a lot. This one specifically seemed to be saying, "Come on, guys, if you actually believe a word I say, we're not going to get very far, are we?" Which was just as well, because no one does. As the press conference wore on, Farage did not seem his usual ebullient self. Smiles were forced. Brows were creased. Farage is as canny as they come. It seems unlikely not to have occurred to him that the reason he is so popular, the one reason that towers above all others, is that so many people have had enough not just of people like Zahawi, but in this case, people who literally are Zahawi. Zahawi seemed to think people would be "shocked" to see him defecting to Reform. People were shocked, but not quite for the reasons he thinks. That Zahawi decided to ask Farage out is no surprise at all. What is more surprising is that Farage said yes. The Tory stampede to Reform is now very much in full swing. At some point, Farage will surely have to say no to someone. He must have a limit. It's a remarkable thing to say, but at the moment Farage can't seem to find the bar.

Quelle surprise...

All 12 of Farage's Reform UK Ltd councils are increasing council tax

Worcestershire has asked special permission to increase their tax by 10%

Derbyshire, North Northamptonshire, West Northamptonshire and Leicestershire to the maximum 4.99%

Kent and Staffordshire to 3.99%
All Reform councils to raise taxes despite campaign pledges
Council leaders have found themselves hamstrung by social care costs, but party sources hope they will have the lowest average tax rises of any party

Margaret Thatcher's Poll Tax wanted to charge everyone the same amount of Council Tax, it was abolished as being too unfair.

The current Council Tax charges people in bedsits in Blackpool more than people in mansions in Westminster.

It is even worse than Poll Tax.

The USA shouldn't have the Olympics it shouldn't have the World Cup, it shouldn't be allowed to even participate in anything with the rest of the world.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

The BBC has been banned from using the word Kidnap to describe the Kidnapping of Maduro.

No doubt when Greenland is invaded they will be banned from using the word invasion.
