I suppose #TUSC now see the #GreenParty as the biggest organisation now on the left of #BritishPolitics - no point in asking anything decent of the #LabourParty

BREAKING: Suella Braverman defects to Reform UK.
Shocked? Not even slightly.
This feels less like a plot twist and more like the inevitable third act.
Political honesty, naked ambition, or just the season of defection doing its thing?

British politics has always had its share of chancers, blaggers, and men who treat the country like a networking event with biscuits.

Remember when Nadhim Zahawi said he’d die a Tory…
Now he’s defecting to the party he called racist.
Politics, apparently.

While the mainstream media spin yet another Tory defection as a massive win for Reform, here's a reminder that, according to their own MPs, the party offer bribes to potential defectors.

But sure, they're a populist party putting the people first.

Australia banned under-16s from social media. Now the UK is talking about doing the same.

Is this genuine child protection, or the start of mandatory age checks?

Do you support a UK social media ban?
