Reform win a seat: The true Volk have spoken and we all must listen.
Greens win a seat: Early reports that Muslims may have βvotedβ (an ancient Islamic practice designed to steal elections). How severely should the franchise be limited in response?

a contender for my favorite behind-the-scenes photo: The Hunt for Red October crew built their submarine set(s) on top of a hydraulic gimbal, 45 ft above the stage floor, capable of tilting 45 degrees to mimic a sub's movements - Sean Connery said it made him seasick. even the gauges inside worked.

He just says he doesnβt know anything about it and says ask the Department of War.
And then wants to talk about what civilian structures Iran is hitting.
Complete disinterest.
Nigel Farage has said he would SUSPEND THE CONVENTION AGAINST TORTURE IN ORDER TO CUT A DEAL TO PAY THE IRANIAN REGIME TO RECEIVE DEPORTED REFUGEES TO THEIR PERSECUTION.
That is the Reform policy his βshadow Home Secretaryβ announced the other day.
The Epstein cover-up is starting to crack, but Pam Bondi is still stonewalling. This is the biggest scandal in modern history, and it's being buried.

Lots of Americans voted Trump because they wanted cheaper gas in their cars.
Not sure this is all about to play out in their favour...
How can he be so good at this stuff & so bad at so much else?

Starmer - in fluent legalise sets out position.
1: UK must only ever act on lawful basis and with a viable and thought through plan and by implication US-Israel attack is noa.
2: Permitted use of UK bases but only to protect lives.
3: Suggests Badenoch would have joined illegal US attack on Iran.
Itβs highly & horribly likely that the Leader of the Opposition doesnβt or canβt understand this.

Every time Nigel Farage's parties have lost an election he has blamed it on "cheating" by ethnic minorities and every time he receives huge amounts of media attention for doing so.
The only problem? No evidence of cheating is ever found
