If you are going to claim you didn’t incite an insurrection then perhaps best not to incite an insurrection in front of tv cameras and especially if you don’t have a current tv licence!
Is it possible for anyone with a reputation already in the toilet to claim your reputation has suffered anyway?

The BBC is dead duck irrelevance in waiting, just us oldies watching it really, it’s just become a self promoting entity for its own shows and then reporting on it and dressing it up as news e.g. Strictly, Traitors and, and, erm.. that’s about it - cue Eastenders drum roll!

What a load of bollocks, as much as Reform being top of the pile, Greens overtaking Libs and now the Tories beating Labour, it’s a bullshit being jumped on by people willing Labour to fail, well, you have another 3 and a bit years to make your dreams come true, happy then?

It’s all happened so quickly, The USA of old looks nothing like the current USA, but Mandani might be a sign that the people are waking up!

By “sunbathing” I think you mean “Just after the 3pm last orders at the Tower Lounge” Brian. They could well still be there!

Cue a series of Robert F. Kennedy style health announcements as Reform continue to parrot whatever comes out of the Trump regime as it’s “Model for a Greater UK”, the idea of which is as sickening as their health policies will make us!

As a Hobbit living in The Shire I can tell Mr Musk that busses don’t run on most rural routes after 6pm, not at all on Sunday’s and you can’t use your Bus Pass till after 09:30 when they do. As for kids, apparently there aren’t any being born outside of the big cities and the Orc spawning grounds!

Aye but here’s another one who believes that there is a circus or a ballroom (non Trumpian) at the top of the Tower, I had arguments with visitors when I worked there years back who insisted “well, there used to be!” It’s about 10m2 at the top of the Tower, I’ve seen bigger pub dance floors 😂

Bought my poppy, oh hang on, bought one of my many poppies, just so people know how generous I am whilst at the same time calling for someone to lose their job! Probably claiming the cost of the poppies back on expenses of course under “Sundries”. She’s getting £93,904 a year to post this shite btw.

Being saying it for a while, Reform are just a rebrand of the Conservative Party so they can write off Austerity, Brexit, Covid and Johnson and the whole Truss disaster and pretend that they had nothing to do with all the corruption, but still the same people!

Trying to counter the Labour stance that Brexit is contributing toward the need for tax raises and the finger pointing at Farage as the architect of that particular disasterous decision! All part of the Tory Party’s “facelift” as they turn into the “Nothing to do with us Party” aka Reform.

Yes, but it’s exactly the reason he has appealed to the neglected of Clacton who must feel like they have been left to rot by successive governments. Farage just knows how to tap into that disgruntlement. I can see the same thing happening here in equally deprived Blackpool and Lancashire!

What, what’s this about Farage’s house? I don’t recall seeing anything on the news or in the “proper” papers about this 🧐

So the average hooligan Reform supporter with the Football banning order from their favourite club are going to replace that Saturday Fix with a Sunday Fix instead, watch their eyes light up when the collection plate goes past “Ohh, free money, Amen to that ya’all”.

This may well be the last chance for a party with a large parliamentary majority to change the system so that no party gains a large parliamentary majority again but ensures that a fairer representation of public opinion is reflected in the parties MP makeup. For goodness sake Labour, make it so!
