@mrjamesob.bsky.social and Henry Riley have been scrutinising Reform UK with a fine-tooth comb, uncovering a massive 22 stories.

Point of no return: a hellish ‘hothouse Earth’ getting closer, scientists say Continued global heating could set irreversible course by triggering climate tipping points, but most people unaware

Busy day signing up new parliamentary candidates for Reform UK.

It's looking and sounding like the media/treacherous MP frenzy has backfired.

Almost all of the calls I've heard to @lbc.co.uk this afternoon/evening have been supportive of Starmer and, more importantly, national stability.

If you want to know what Reform will be like in government, look at the councils we control. At Worcestershire County Council, for example, we want to increase council tax by 10% and are begging the government for a £71m bail out, otherwise we face effective bankruptcy.

"I should just point out that this is the SIXTH time we have invited unelected gobshite Zia Yusuf onto Question Time"

"You should never overestimate the extent to which the BBC changed this country by giving endless airtime to Nigel Farage, other far right extremists and the Tufton Street junktanks, while shutting out progressive voices."

– George Monbiot

Nigel Farage wants to cut price of beer by reinstating two-child benefit cap Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has pledged to reinstate the two-child limit on benefits to pay for a 5p cut off pints of beer to boost pubs.

Half a million children will be pushed back into poverty.
For maybe 5p off a pint.

What a shitty thing to do…

Homicides at lowest level in nearly 50 years, ONS statistics show The 499 homicide cases in the year to September were the lowest in England and Wales since 1977.

Let's hope this positive news gets as much attention as the people who try to convince us that the UK is a murder ravaged hellscape.

This is absolutely shocking. Something has to be done about this appalling situation in which so many now find themselves. The government needs to act

Can someone please delete this - it's making us look like a bunch of hypocritical twats.

The people of Gorton & Denton deserve much better than an opportunist extremist using their community as a platform for his own career. HOPE not hate will be actively campaigning to make sure Matthew Goodwin does not get elected.

Johnson culled the Tory Party of all but its grimmest dregs & now the grimmest of the grimmest dregs are defecting to Reform. It would be funny if it didn't alllow them, along with Farage, to pretend that they're not responsible for the state of the nation.

Video shows moments around fatal shooting in Minneapolis Bystander footage has captured the seconds before the killing of 37-year-old Alex Pretti.

If that's what they're willing to do in public, while being filmed, what do they do behind closed doors?

Take a chill pill Paul!

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

The Fagash Fuhrer responds to Trump's slur on British troops: "it's not quite fair".

Weasel words from the Trumpette.

You've had a busy week Simon ... Quality reporting!

This was a commission for a pet portrait I painted a few years ago. The dog is called Betty. She's beautiful!

Hi there, What new rules?

Satire died a long time ago.

This seems to be the day when they flush it's ashes down the toilet.

They claim they’re putting personal ambition aside and defecting to Reform to help fix the country.
To stop that pisstaking farce, they should be made to hold by-elections in their constituencies and let the voters decide if that’s ok with them. Please sign.

Speeches still matter. This one was superb and deeply consequential if others follow his lead in the face of the corrupt mindless bullying and BS From USA. New ep @therestpolitics.bsky.social recorded just before he spoke. All themes covered!!!

NEW: NEW: Standards commissioner finds Nigel Farage committed seventeen breaches of MPs code of conduct.

He failed to declare £333,000 in outside interests (more than 3x MPs annual salary)…
