I hereby declare war on premature Christmassing.

Any shop caught doing this before 1st December must be shut down and turned into affordable housing.

Choose sanity. Vote Binface.

On #BBCQT - Fiona Bruce said that the audience and public didn't want to press Reform UK on their dodgy links to Russia.

I disagree.

RT if you agree it's in the public interest for Reform to explain about their links to Russian money and bribery!

Gaza ceasefire deal: what has been agreed for โ€˜first phaseโ€™ and why now? Donald Trump says Israel and Hamas have reached a deal to pause fighting and release some hostages and prisoners

The why now is easily answered - Someone thinks theyโ€™ll get the Nobel peace Prize now and put pressure to bear on Netanyahu, which he will the ignore once hostages are released

Robert Jenrick complained of โ€˜not seeing another white faceโ€™ in Birmingham neighbourhood Shadow justice secretary criticised for suggesting he could tell how integrated Handsworth was based on short visit

This is shocking racism from Jenrick and Badenoch should sack him immediately.

This is a lie.

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

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

Vicars, grannies, blind people, those in wheelchairs all being physically carried away by police, one at a time after their rights are readโ€ฆ All for holding a placard.

โ€ฆinstead of the police being used to stop rape, burglary, domestic violence and theft. This farce has to break, surely.

Itโ€™s easy to say that this is the last desperate hurrah of a dying party, but can we be clear: Trumpโ€™s ICE agents are literally kidnapping people, detaining them without due process in concentration camps (yes, this is the right term) and 1000s have disappeared. These are fascist practices.

We all know why Nigel Farage is accusing Labour of inciting violence against him while cutting his security. Because if he didnโ€™t, people might remember to ask him who paid for his house in Clacton and why he hangs around with people who take bribes from Russians.

About time consequences were faced for the PPE scandalโ€ฆ

But why only Michelle Mone?

So whereโ€™s the rest of them?

Douglas Barrowman and Michelle Mone's company, PPE Medpro, has just been ordered to refund the Government ยฃ122m from a PPE contract.

There are two very odd things about PPE Medpro that may affect the odds of the Government ever getting that ยฃ122m...

So Baroness Mone didnโ€™t just connect PPE Medpro to the governmentโ€™s VIP lane. She took an active role lobbying for the company:

Rachel wearing very flimsy looking apron, mask and visor in NHS setting

Here I am in 2020 in the flimsiest, most pitful PPE - like so many other NHS staff, some of whom died from the Covid they caught in their hospitals.

Tory peer Michelle Mone - who today lost her legal case & must repay the govt ยฃ122m - dares to claim sheโ€™s been โ€˜scapegoatedโ€™.

What, Michelle? ๐Ÿงต

Farage the Trump parrot A writerโ€™s response to Nigel Farageโ€™s aping of Trumpโ€™s policies

"Farage has no ideas of his own, he just steals from his idol Trump. He wants to be Britainโ€™s own mini-Trump.
โ€ฉHe wants us to copy the failed Trump strategies which are driving the US economy into deep recession."

Farage is applying for a job.

That job is Prime Minister.

The only thing on his CV is Brexit.

He campaigned for it for 27 years.

So his only real track record is making everyone poorer & damaging the NHS.

If you hire Nigel & Reform, you must want this company (UK) to fail.

So, Sunday Times runs with latest poll showing Farage winning if there was an election now. But makes NO mention of Reformโ€™s collusion with Russia. And this is how democracy gets beaten to death in the dark. Voters are not being told the truth. Reform is given the stage but is NEVER held to account.
