Anyway from now on we can all legitimately call Reform the "Black Shirts" - given they're flogging them to their actual members.

What an own goal!

Geddit?

Word of the day is ‘quockerwodger’ (19th century): a puppet politician whose strings are pulled entirely by someone else.

Jonathan Pie always gets to the core of issues.

Go for it.

Journalist, "Farage accused the BBC of election interference"

Ed Davey, "The interference we've seen is from Farage's friend, Putin"

"We've seen Russian interference in the most appalling way"

They really have lost the plot, haven’t they?

A reminder that Brexit and Brexiteers caused the small boat crisis.

Minority representation on TV causes outrage

From the new Private Eye, in shops now.

It’s too simplistic to describe ‘older people’ as Reform voters. In the last election, whilst canvassing who is now our excellent Lib Dem MP, almost every Reform voter I found was in their 30s or 40s.

Farage: epic grifter

I am once again begging you to boycott Tesla

Is that a service ghetto, lumping people together on the basis of a label society has given them - or am I missing something?

🔴 If Gill took Kremlin cash to say it...why was Farage saying the same things? 🐻🇷🇺🪆

This looks Bad! This looks identical!

Best to keep your distance from Corbyn. He's toxic to most pro-EU voters.

Not if Vitor keeps going defensive for the last 30 mins.

The Guardian view on Conservative party conference: Kemi Badenoch’s last shot at relevance | Editorial Editorial: The Tory leader’s warped analysis of why her party is unpopular has lead her into strategic misjudgments and terrible policy choices

Extremely articulate take from The Guardian on Bad Enoch (Apart from when they start a paragraph with the word “But” 😏) www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Ed Davey's LibDem conference speech was pretty much everything Labour's change was meant to be

Nigel Farage claim:

"We are not the world's food bank, it is not for us to provide welfare to people coming in from all over the world"

Reality:

The average migrant on the Skilled Worker visa had a net fiscal impact of +£16,300 in 2022/23. In contrast, the average UK-born adult had about +£800

In the late 19th century, millions of migrants left Germany as a result of religious persecution, economic hardship, and political uncertainty.

Among them was Nikolaus Schrod, a cabinet maker from Frankfurt who - along with his wife Bina - moved to London to start a new life in the 1850s. 1/3

Very odd watching BBC News talking about the Lib Dem conference and mentioning how the party has struggled to break through in the media like it's nothing to do with them.

YouTube video by Marsh Family "Put Up Some Fences" - Marsh Family parody of "Walking in Memphis" about Donald Trump UK State Visit

Here's a parody adaptation of the classic song "Walking in Memphis" by the soulful Marc Cohn, in which we address Donald Trump's arrival in the UK for his exciting historic second state visit.

It's called "Put Up Some Fences" 🎹🎶

Isn’t it just simple for Starmer et al to say that old, well understood fact: “There is no such thing as complete freedom to do and say what you want because one person’s freedom to do that can mean another person’s loss of freedom from living without abuse, fear or worse”. Draw your lines.

The headline should have been “Another failed Tory MP who lost their seat last year ….’

Hopefully, the Cabinet told him to say that publicly - loudly and repeatedly.

Here are the alternatives.
The world's richest man with a history of racism, white supremacy, fascism, political corruption, social media manipulation and election interference calls for the violent overthrow of the British government.
Starmer can either:
A. Pretend it didn't happen
B. Do something

The far-right mob in London paled into insignificance compared to our Remain marches. Especially the one in 2018. Between 700,000 and a million people turned out. The Labour front bench stayed away. They also ignored its message. But the voters who took part in it haven't disappeared.
#RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

Want to be clear that the predictable violence against the police wasn't the only problem with yesterday's march

It's that 100,000 angry racists gathered in London for the biggest racist march in 50 years, and anyone not white had to steer clear

The govt can't see that because they are inadequate.

Gary Lineker on winning the National TV Award,

"It's not lost on me why I might have won this award"

"Aside from presenting Match of the Day.."

"Also, I think it demonstrates that perhaps it's ok sometimes to use our platform to speak up on behalf of those who have no voice"
