Sensible lefty, former trade union activist, now an apprentice novelist and politics junkie. Proudly woke. Disobedient. Music. Cycling. Words. Science. Grandchildren. Living the dream in Brighton.
Rubio is the only politician visible in this clip.
The look on his face says that he now realises that working for Trump has finished his political career.

Whatever else he might be, Farage is not stupid. He knows that there's no chance at all of his bunch of amateurs being able to form a viable government.
So, presumably, what he's after is a deal with the Tories that would give Reform some ministerial posts, in return for backing off in some seats.

All the more reason why Miller will be looking for an opportunity to invoke the Insurrection Act and cancel the elections.

That doesn't need an MRI scan

The simple fact that he's having multiple MRI scans says there's something the doctors are watching closely and, presumably, are worried about.

He's having weekly MRIs?
His doctors must be very worried then.

"... Section 1(3) stipulates that an organisation cannot be convicted of the offence unless a substantial element of the breach lies IN THE WAY THE SENIOR MANAGEMENT OF THE ORGANISATION MANAGED OR ORGANISED ITS ACTIVITIES."

Followed the evidence in excruciating detail (and throughly enjoyed it). My sense of outrage at the time, and since, has partially evaporated at this wonderful piece of news.
Now I'm going to have to go into my mind palace to try to figure out which of the fuckers is in the Mr Plod's sights.

When Trump says he'll release his MRI results, he means, of course, that he won't release his MRI results.

Difficult. I don't think Israel should be 'dismantled'
It's what you want - so I'd have thought it was up to you to explain what in detail it means and how it's to be brought about.

Suppose it depends on exactly how Israel is to be 'dismantled' (to use your phrase) and on who is going to do the dismantling. Or even what 'dismantling Israel' means.

As the week wears on, we'll hear the word 'lie' more frequently.
The Tories know there isn't all that much mileage in this story, so they don't have much time. They will fling that word around as much as possible with the objective of linking 'Reeves' with 'lying' as the only take-out message.

Not stupid as such; more inattentive.
As with a lot the (right wing) media does - it's based on the idea that most people don't pay attention to the details, but just listen to the noise.
The political point is to make as much noise as they can in an attempt to smear their opponents.
