A lesson from history press (particularly the BBC). your helping someone who comes across as being charismatic with simple answers to difficult questions. You think you can control him, you carnt. He will come for you after you stop being useful BBC. your bringing on your own demise.

Notice how the people who turn up at places like Epping always look the same. Namely straight out of the local spoons, tanked up on cheap beer and Colombian marching powder. Irony is their the first people who would suffer under farage because he would stop their benefits!

Those people against 16 year old ain't new Their the same sort of people who were against 18 year olds voting in 1970 and women votes in the 1920s and against male votes being increased at the end of 19th century Same people who tried to restrict voting in the last GE which backfired spectacularly

Big up for the LDs taking the BCC on for platforming Reform, its time other parties joined in. Realise its difficult for the government front bench but that doesn't stop them being a dammed sight more aggressive when being questioned. CALL THE PRESENTERS OUT!

So the gloss has started to come off the reform bandwagon, polls are narrowing and resignations all over the place. Always said once they got a bit of power and couldn't just shout from the sidelines reality would sink in.

Every time I feel like giving up every time I despair at this government and the world over liberals for not being strong enough along comes a day like yesterday and you realise that the modern Conservative party are a back of cruel hateful bastards that should never be anywhere near power

OK I don't like a lot of things Rachel Reeves has done and yes by all means criticise her for her political decisions but to have a mass pile on because she starts crying over a personal issue before knowing whats up is about as low you can go and for Badenoch to join in is disgusting.

One good thing to come out of the Glastonbury rumpus is gives Lisa Nandy the perfect excuse to get rid of the higher management of the BBC, because the nut jobs at the Mail, Telegraph, etc are clamouring to get shut. Which gives the perfect cover because it can be seen as not being political.

Think were coming to the issue which will define this government namely PIP. Strangely enough its not the rights and wrongs of the policy but how its been presented. Its not just the usual suspects rebelling. Labour will still call an GE in 2029 however Starmers credibility will be shredded.

Trump the self confessed king if the deal shows how useless he is (again). The art of diplomatic reasoning is to always leave yourself an out. Instead he boxed himself in. Lose your MAGA base or look weak and stall for time. He chose the 2nd and now TACO is gonna stick even more.

The main problem with the press at the moment is they never thought that there would be a change of government so they never built any contracts with the new government. Rank bad journalism at best. Robert Preston for one has a major sulk on at the moment. WHAT'S UP GUYS THE FREEBIES DRYED UP!

Don't think the gammons are going get through to the next GE at this rate. Take yesterdayfor instance, hysterical over Gibraltar (which Gibraltar wanted), endless going on about how it safe it aint in London (which on the whole it is) and painting the UK as some sort of scene out of Mad Max!

Didn't take the BBC long to try and put a positive spin on the Hamilton by-election for reform did it! Got a feeling it must have really upset them when all the pre planning for a day of Labour bashing went out of the window.

Just when you start losing hope, what happens! Musk and Trump going to war and Reform blow themselves apart. Reckon getting that idiot elected in Runcorn could go down as the biggest own goal for many a year, and it also shows they should never ever be anywhere near power.

Defence is an important debate, to spend more or less is one of the most important issues of our time. So take a guess how many of so called pariots in reform turned up in Parliament today. Yep that's right a big fat zero!

So Jenrick does a PR stunt and the BBC lap it up and do a prime time hour long phone in giving him the publicity he was after. But then again it fits in perfectly with the BBC agenda under Robbie Gibb.

Until now it has seemed that Scotland as been resistant to Reform, however next week's by-election in Hamilton for a new MSP is gonna prove interesting. If they preform well and get a sizeable vote share (20%) it should another wake up call to us all to concentrate on the real enemy.

Only go back there for a reference point. Don't contribute.

Didn't realise how bad the depravity of twitter had sunk until I read the comments today about last night's events in Liverpool. Real sick people who think it's a joke compound by the usual suspects such as Grimes, JBH and Fox trying to stir up racial hatred to boost their own profiles.

Used to think that, but what's in it for reform? They have got the torys on the run also they would lose a load of votes in the labour heartlands. Also moderate torys would defect to the LDs in the South. Despise farage but he's a master on tactics and there's nothing it for to have a pact.

A bit back I started reading the i because I wanted something that seemed genuinely independent. The last month or so i may as well have read the telegraph. Its been day after day of labour bashing while going soft on reform. If farage wins in 29 don't think it's gonna save you i because it aint!

Your arguments have merits. However it wouldn't change the facts that if an organisation like the BBC won't report the fact that someone whose trying to be the next PM goes AWOL then it aint gonna makes any difference.

Following on from my post a couple back. 0.7% growth next to no mention, inflation up, wall to wall coverage on the BBC and no mention of farage being on holiday when parliament is sitting. No tell me that the BBC isn't biased.

Best 24 hours in a while, getting closer to europe (still along way to go). The right wing press (far) going ballistic and quite frankly unhinged. The government starting to play hardball with reform. Still a long way to go but it's a start. Also the pro putin (pro trump) candidate in romania lost.
