The far right is corrupt to the core #Reform

It would certainly suit Rupert Lowe for the flags to be taken down. It then means he can go on social media and get more attention.

Could he be behind them being taken down?

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Have had to turn your show off for the first time as listening to this far right rally is chilling. Will be back for when you analyse.

It's a concern

Oh look, it's the consequences of my complicity

From Victorian mills to the NHS, the UK has never been self-sufficient. Immigration keeps the country running.

The Bear calls out the denial on all political sides.

Is it time for Pep to move on? Why is Clare Balding doing bad adverts? Are the above two questions linked?

Who needs Reform when you Sky News?

Schrödinger's refugee:

Get them out the hotels but don’t house them.

They’re an NHS burden but also replacing GPs.

They’re taking tax money but also our jobs.

They’re illegal, but there’s no safe routes.

FYI: The issue isn’t refugees, it’s 14 yrs of decline caused by the Tories and Farage.

A crime wave in small boats: why worry about facts? Conservatives claim that small boat arrivals are 24 times more likely to be in prison than the average British citizen. Are they?

Are small boat migrants really 24x more likely to be in prison? Not according to the facts.

The Conservative figure is based on flawed, outdated, and mismatched data.

They are in fact using fear of diversity to achieve dictatorship.

Today, MPs got a letter from Liz Kendall with the Government's panicked proposals for a two-tier disability benefits system, harsher and meaner to people who fall sick or disabled after Nov 2026. Not acceptable - Green MPs will vote against the Bill tomorrow #TakingThePIP #WelfareBill

How many empty seats at @wimbledonltc.bsky.social ?

Another straightforward men's evening match at @rolandgarros.com Shame they won't show women's matches in the evenings. Feels sexist to me

Yep. Not his day

#itfc has the squad that could bounce back to the premier league. But the challenge is adding the right players who could do well in the prem without undermining the chances of promotion. That and having multiple attacking midfielders but very few who can play in the pivot

Just seen it.

I didn't see that. Not that it surprises me. I've been bamboozled by so many referee decisions on this season

Another loss for the men’s team today, but was great to see ITFC Women honoured with a civic reception at Ipswich Town Hall this morning and then parade the FAWNL Southern Premier Division trophy around PR at halftime 💙🤍 #itfc #itfcwomen #womensfootball
