This is an act of war

How ? How does leaving the ECHR reduce immigration ? Please explain ?

I don't think people in London noticed that

Given the party's refusal to act on Pochin's brazen racism, it should be as socially unacceptable to vote for Reform as it was in the early 2000s to vote for the BNP.

And we should be prepared to say this to people's faces.

He has no idea what's going on

Hours before this he was bragging about how he supposedly aced a cognitive exam.

And that it was because of brexit

Embattled Reform UK council leader calls for backing Council leader Linden Kemkaran asks members to sign a statement to

Hmmm... So Kent County Council is being run by someone residents didn't elect who may or may not live in Clacton ?

Linden Kemkaran and the other KCC ReformUK councillors are being treated as puppets who are simply there to do Farage's bidding.

Shubh Diwali!

Wishing Hindus, Sikhs and Jains around the world a celebration filled with joy, light and hope for the future.

Matthew 25:35 (ESV) For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me,

For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,

Romans 12:20 (NIV) On the contrary: “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”

My message to the millions of One Nation conservatives who reject the divisive politics of Badenoch and Farage is this:

Come and join us. Help us save our country. Come and win with us.

The Conservative party has given up being the party of law and order.

Huh ? So they think sentencing policy being determined by culture war obsessed racist and prejudiced politicians like Jenrick in charge is a better solution ?

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Presumably she just made that up, in the same way as she made up the 'fact' that Northern Ireland 'voted for brexit'

Surely this will also enable police to stop the asylum hotel protests just as much as Palestinian ones ?? Why are she and journalists not pointing this out? How does banning those protests protect synagogues?

Keir Starmer wants to force everyone to have a digital ID.

But the Liberal Democrats say that’s not the kind of country we should be. Instead, the government should focus on fixing real problems like the NHS and social care.

I’m old enough to remember when Conservative Party leaders believed in law and order.

Letter from Ed Davey to Keir Starmer condemning Elon Musk for inciting violence and urging unity to defend democracy.

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday.

As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

The horrors in Gaza must stop.

And when the one man with the power to make it stop – Donald Trump – arrives in the UK today, Keir Starmer must do all he can to make the President act.

Former Conservative minister Maria Caulfield defects to Reform Caulfield lost her seat at last year's general election, after nearly nine years as the MP for Lewes.

Gosh.. ReformUK are really hoovering up the dregs:

UK to recognise Palestinian state unless Israel meets conditions The PM says he will take the action in September, unless Israel takes steps including agreeing a ceasefire.

Keir Starmer:
"The UK will recognise a Palestinian state in September unless ... " WTF ??

Whether a state is a legitimate state worthy of recognition as such does not depend on the actions of some other state. Its about whether it is merited in its own right.
