Many royal correspondents have said it would be difficult for Brian to strip Andrew of his titles, as it would require a huge amount of parliamentary time.

But Britain managed to de-king Edward VIII... and it only took a morning.

In these times of rancour & division, it’s comforting to find things on which we can all agree: Kent County Council, for example, really does provide a perfect illustration of how well Reform would run the country. I agree with Nigel!

There are MANY politicians who owe West Midlands police a profound apology.

Peaceful rioting in Tel Aviv tonight by those Maccabi Tel Aviv hooligans, so bad that the match was cancelled.

I wonder did the UK police ban them because 'antisemitism' or was it because they are violent thugs?

Lords Heseltine & Kinnock seem more alive to these self-evident truths than most members of the Commons. Similarly, I find thinkers with direct lived experience of far right dictatorship, Greeks of a certain age for example, crystal clear about what’s happening now.
“You described Reform and other parties across Europe today as among the 'right wing equivalents of the fascists in the 1930s'. Why?”

“Because that’s what they are”

@vicderbyshire.bsky.social asks Lord Heseltine about remarks he made at Conservative Party Conference.

Javier Milei had to beg a bail-out and already needs another. Argentina's economy is in a tailspin. Gov't bonds and peso in freefall. People starving, throwing rocks at him.

Farage last year: "He's amazing. It's Thatcherism on steroids. Cutting and slashing expenditure. That's leadership."

Leaving the ECHR won’t “Take Back Control” – it will hand your rights to politicians
The myths are seductive, the reality is very different – without the ECHR your freedoms rest on whichever Home Secretary wakes up grumpy

Jenrick can't control who stands in the background of his photos, but he can decide whether to attend protests with a far-right message and a documented history of being organised by the far-right. He knows this. He goes anyway. Once upon a time it would have been a sackable offence.

In amongst all the excitement I fear many have missed this outstanding bit of trolling by Friedrich Merz.

This is what Tory prime minister Ted Heath said when sacking Enoch Powell from his shadow cabinet in 1968.

Starmer's speech today was a dangerous & disgustingly cynical attempt to outflank Farage by demonising migrants.

Labour ministers can't sack Starmer but they could & should resign.
