That’s now 22 ex-Tory MPs in the Reform ranks.
The same names and faces that broke your public services - now under Nigel Farage’s umbrella.

Orban is, of course, not telling the truth here - the Commission’s decision does not affect "what we can read and say". BTW Hungary (like every EU Member State) voted for the Digital Services Act.
Twitter in the past 48 hours has been like watching a remedial version of SPECTRE convene a meeting in real time.

Thanks, chaps, much appreciated.
We have decided to switch Ashes allegiances. As a team who will always support the underdog, we recognise the dire position England are now in, having gone 17 winless games in Australia since 2011. It has become like San Marino vs. Brazil in football. England need our support.

“It is now beyond doubt, however; that this assisted by the White House in its efforts to destroy Ukraine and that the United States has declared war on Europe under its appalling president”… and who does the US support in Europe? The AFD in Germany and Reform UK here.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

"There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad."
This story is starting to make me feel I’m going slightly mad - maybe RR overdid the gloom, but the tax rises are paying for a) the welfare U-turns b) the £10bn-plus increase in headroom c) scrapping the two child limit d) bits of other spending eg higher local gov costs 🤷🏻♀️
