Who is his source, RFK Jr?

Durham Miners Association Secretary General Alan Mardghun has just called out Darren Grimes’ behaviour and called him a liar at the 139th Durham Miners Gala in front of 200k+ people.

Hard agree with my local MP @maxwilkinson.bsky.social

And I very much appreciate him speaking up.

Has your MO?

If not, why not?

Give him or her a very hard nudge.

The Telegraph today carries a news story about someone paying £7.4 million for a handbag (Hello, Lady Bracknell!). And an opinion piece describing a wealth tax as a ‘moral abomination’. What a time to be alive.

Might thoughts entirely

Monday next week Andrea Jenkyns faces a County Court appeal brought over her eligibility in the mayoral election.

She was added to the North Kesteven electoral roll at an address in Bassingham, near Lincoln, in April 2025, just before the election.

Reform's momentum is making the political weather Nigel Farage's party has seen four recent defections from the Tories, with Labour reshaping its approach in response

Dear BBC, Reform is setting the agenda because you build them up, ignoring they have lost MPs to resignation and corruption, that they lost council seats defended, and failed to question their proposals, while inviting their leader endlessly on to your programmes www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

But are Reform really “making the political weather” as you, so uncritically say, Chris Mason, or are you making it for them by hyperventilating over each grubby little Tory-Reform-reshuffle, without *ever* properly scrutinising the howling failures of these deeply unpleasant, grifting clowns?

I believe 'bollocks' is the correct response to this story.

I’m glad to see that Nigel #FarageRiots world beating vetting process is working sooo well….

Chancellor Merz:

"We will continue to support Ukraine
Let me be even clearer:the means of diplomacy have been exhausted when a criminal regime openly challenges an entire country's right to exist through military force&sets out to destroy the political order of freedom across the European continent

If you can’t afford a 2% wealth tax on assets over £10 million…

Might I suggest you live within your means?

If you’re unwilling to pay a bit more tax on your millions to help the most vulnerable, then please, go ahead and fuck off.

No real patriot would hoard their wealth rather than help rebuild Britain.

If you defend millionaires when you’re not one, you’re just a little serf bootlicker.

Good for President Macron!👏👏✨🇫🇷🇬🇧

The BBC are constantly bending over backwards to please Reform.

I fear they're becoming a mouthpiece for Nigel Farage, a guy who wants to destroy them.

Nigel Farage Big pay days and top of the polls: Nigel Farage's first year as an MP In year since Reform party leader was elected at eighth attempt he has been largely absent from Commons votes and very present in the media

Money Farage is the highest paid MP of this parliament by a long way. He earned at least £970,000 from outside employment ranging from speeches to bringing in £280,000 as brand ambassador for a gold company. In April, he got a 10th job, making £25,000 (AU$52,000) as a commentator for the Rupert Murdoch-backed Sky News Australia, with the MP telling the channel that Britain was "going downhill". The portfolio of gigs on top of his role as an MP also includes a £4,000-a-month column for the Daily Telegraph and presenting for GB News, which has paid him more than £330,000 since July.

“In year since Reform party leader was elected at 8th attempt he has been largely absent from Commons votes and very present in the media”

Says it all.

A career piss-taker given so much airtime, but so little scrutiny, he now fancies himself as PM.

Durham by-election: Lib Dems win seat off Reform UK - BBC News The seat is re-contested after the former councillor failed to declare he works for Durham Council.

Why❓ Well they’re not Farage and Reform that MSM want in Govt 🤷🏼‍♂️

#Farage ranting with his buddy on #LBC about how he wants the best people in his cabinet, with the requisite skills for the jobs, but not having to be an elected MP.

So these are the unelected bureaucrats he dislikes so much in the EU parliament?

The conman is also a complete hypocrite.

The first two by-elections caused by Deform Ltd councillors realising they couldn't hack it, have gone to the LibDems in Durham and the Tories in Nottinghamshire.

Who'd have thought that Man of the People Nige Fartrage was less attractive to voters than Kemi Badenough?
