Here’s an idea - politicians have to apply for a licence to practice politics, renewed every 5 years. If you are found to have been a key architect of a disastrous decision which has made the country measurably poorer, that’s one of the criteria through which the licence can be revoked.

Chris Mason: Reform conference shows party's growing ambition like never before
The conference feels like that of a big party - but retains the insurgency vibe that the party is seeking to channel.

This week Nigel Farage went to America to badmouth Britain, even comparing our country to North Korea.
He’d rather cosy up to his MAGA buddy mates than fix problems here at home.

Nice to see a blue plaque and plinth on Wistaston Road in Crewe to commemorate the women’s rights campaigner, Ada Nield Chew. In the 1890's she wrote letters to the Crewe Chronicle exposing the conditions the women worked in. The needle and bobbin represent the clothing factory she worked in.

As predicted, the front pages of BBC & CNN are full of Israel-Iran.
Nothing on Gaza or West Bank. Remember that all comms are cut in Gaza as they starve.
Exactly what Netanyahu wanted.
They can do anything they like now as the vapid MSM chase the new squirrel released for their distraction.
