So refreshing to see someone challenge the smug, nasty Reform narrative

When was the last time you heard Farage say anything positive about Britain?

He can’t, as he doesn’t like or believe in Britain. He wants you to doubt it as much as he does.

Nigel Farage before the crypto lobby started funding Reform UK

Lucy Powell: Labour a ‘bit of a boys club’ and needs to be ‘more inclusive’ | The News Agents Lucy Powell, Labour deputy leader contender, says she hopes to end the “boys club” and “groupthink” that exists in Keir Starmer’s government, and believes she is a voice of party membership, instead…

"When people are raising concerns, it's not disloyalty – they want to make the right decisions."

Labour deputy leader contender Lucy Powell on 'ridiculous' claims she acted as "chief whip for rebels" against welfare changes

Reform says one thing and does the opposite - this is not reforming our politics, it’s what we’ve come to expect after 14 years of Tory rule - is there really any difference between Reform and the Tories? I can’t see it.

The Deputy Chair of the Reform group on Cornwall Council, Rowland O’Connor, has quit the party, ITV West Country reports.

O’Connor says his views on how to help local people “increasingly diverged from those of the party”.

I see Reform UK are on #BBCQT again tonight, would one of the other panelists kindly ask

Is it fiscally responsible for Nathan Gill to make anti EU, pro Russia statements in exchange for bribes

But for Nigel Farage to make anti EU, pro Russia statements, without bribes?

Nigel Farage earns over £1m from 12 'second jobs' - check how much your MP earns The Reform UK leader's most lucrative second jobs include hosting on GB News, serving as a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion and recording videos for Cameo

Twelve Jobs Nigel has earned over £1 million in additional income since the general election.

To understand the scale of it, since the July 2024 election he's earned roughly £100k more as a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion than Starmer gets as PM.

I sometimes worry I exaggerate the collective madness of our media but the people who cheered Brexit, Boris Johnson & Liz Truss's mini-budget are now applauding Kemi Badenoch's speech. 'Parallell universe' doesn't come close. I suppose her not falling over is a win of sorts for them at the moment.

Michael Heseltine likens Reform to fascists of 1930s in scathing attack Tory grandee Michael Heseltine likened Nigel Farage's Reform UK to fascist groups of the 1930s and lashed out at Kemi Badenoch's 'unforgivable' climate change plans

92-years old Lord Heseltine likened Farage's Reform UK to Oswald Mosleyite fascist groups of the 1930s and also lashed out at Badenoch's 'unforgivable' climate change plans.

London hits clean air milestone 184 years early - ULEZ makes 'big difference' A professor has branded the success a 'truly remarkable turnaround for the city's air quality'

Thanks to London’s bold action, almost 10 million people are now breathing cleaner air.

That means fewer children will grow up with stunted lungs and fewer people will have to suffer from asthma, dementia and heart disease.

Conference was SUCH a blast - just buzzing with new members, new energy, so much hope. Happy smiling faces all round!!! Thank you all. You really made me feel welcomed into my new role and I’m just so honoured to be in service.

Kemi Badenoch blames those crossing borders for our problems. It’s a lie aimed to distract.

The real issue is a system protecting the super-rich while nurses & carers can’t make ends meet. Tax wealth fairly, fund public services properly. This is how we give Britain hope again.

Dinosaurs are impressive but so is the colossal Blue Whale! Having a short break from politics! Fantastic museum. But not recommended for creationists! 😊
