No, because British libel laws are a lot tighter.

Controversial former Reform councillor resigns from Cornwall Council 'Christine has made a real difference to her community, from supporting local initiatives to ensuring residentsโ€™ voices were heard in every decision she took.'

As I thought.

I hope this trend will continue in the GE.

Meanwhile it looks like another Reform Cllr is quitting in Cornwall - a good opportunity for the LDs to consolidate power on the Council.

It is time to build a Progressive Alliance against fascism. We can argue amongst ourselves, as is right in a democracy. But when it comes to elections we must pull together and vote tactically to defeat the British branch of international fascism.

I remember the day he took on Militant at Conference. Uproar in the hall! Half the crowd cheering, the other half raging. Eric Heifer storming off stage.

Jaw jutting, Kinnock stood at the lectern like a rock in a violent sea. I was on my feet punching the air: โ€œThatโ€™s it Neil! Come on Neil!โ€

USA is not signed up to ICC so The Hague Court has no jurisdiction here.

Canโ€™t happen as USA isnโ€™t signatory to the ICC in Den Haag.

Tried FB / Insta without effect. Buzzsprout (who mount the recordings) have a paid ad system which I will examine.

We have been downloaded 250 times in total. 250 per episode would be better.

Trying to make it a weekly thing, and more conversational with more guest appearances.

They did, after a delay. Two younger border staff told us that my wife had to go through the Non-EU lane.

But after 15 minutes we found a supervisor who let her through the EU lane with me.

Thank goodness for this experienced person, else it would have taken an hour. Longer than the flight.

Some will, some wonโ€™t. But if polling at 25% instead of 33%, a Reform government becomes unlikely.

I disagree - Reformโ€™s polling figures dropped into the twenties after their conference.

When people see what Reform truly are - the NF in suits - many will walk away.

BBC Accused of Pro-Reform Bias as Lib Dems Launch Campaign to End 'Wall to Wall' Farage Coverage They accuse the BBC of "following Farage around like a lost puppyโ€ and have complained to Ofcom to demand fair coverage

Bravo @libdems.org.uk @eddavey.libdems.org.uk hold BBC to account for using licence fees to run Reform propaganda and depict Farage as a mighty political force..

When heโ€™s really just a #PlasticMP with no viable policies just a mouth that wonโ€™t stop bloody flapping

Following our popular interview with passionate Cornishman Michael Bunney, our man Garth speaks to a NYC citizen concerning loss of American democracy, and sounds a warning for UKโ€ฆ

Maybe thatโ€™s why the RW populist news channels use the name GB instead of UK, over and over?

Preparing Britain to abandon the Six Counties, and go back to being the Kingdom of Great Britain, as before 1800?

Attacks on the independence of the judiciary are one of the warning signs of growing fascism.

Iโ€™ve heard that song since the seventies. Usually from reactionary old pub bores with marginal views.

Itโ€™s sad to hear it coming from a youngster though.

I saw her on the motorway once. Three police riders up front, unmarked Range Rovers front and back of her Rolls, and three more riders behind.

Not this Vance nonsenseโ€ฆ..

He is against rejoining. He voted against all pro-EU legislation for years. He called for A50 the day after the referendum.

I donโ€™t know his position on inward migration but as he is generally pro-human I would expect that he is pro-migration.
