The beautiful thing is the photo, which takes up half the front page, is a shining example of how great immigration has been for this country, and utterly undermines the message below it. It couldโ€™ve been worse, they could have chosen other pictures, so Iโ€™m glad they chose that one.

Farage promises to build more jails
by Our Reform Correspondent
Nick Money

BRITAIN'S next prime minister, Nigel Farage, has vowed to expand the prison service to deal with the increasing lawlessness in Broken Britain.

Farage said it was imperative that we have more prisons to accommodate law-breakers such as Reform MPs.
Said Farage, "No, let me finish! We are looking at hundreds more Reform MPs after the next election, and with our vetting systems we are guaranteed to have a vast number of criminal members of Parliament, who have stolen public money or pushed their girlfriends down the stairs."

When asked how much all this would cost, the Reform leader explained in great detail that he didn't have a clue and couldn't care less.

Farage also promised to send the worst offenders to El Salvador, following a successful pilot programme sending Reform supporters to live in Dubai.

When so much of the media rolls out the comfy red carpet for Farage, Private Eye trips him up and milkshakes him.

Farage comes straight out saying his new councillors need to do a โ€˜DOGEโ€™ - Muskโ€™s ruinous approach to culling govt offices and public services. โ€˜Efficiency savingsโ€™ that are costing America dearly. This isnโ€™t change. This is more of the vicious uselessness that broke our country in the first place.

Kemi Badenoch keeps calling for inquiries into the rape gangs. Iโ€™m just very confused as to why she never thought to look into this important issue herself when she was Minister for Women. #PMQs

Inside Labour's Cambridgeshire & Peterborough mayor campaign With the 2025 local elections less than a week away, I went to visit Cambridgeshire and Peterborough as Labour try to see off an attempt to flip the regionโ€™s mayoralty, won by a knife-edge at the last...

Despite strong misgivings about the โ€˜transferโ€™ bought this today, first issue from Tortoise media, as I passionately want to see quality newspapers continue in print. Verdict: pretty good. In further support of exemplary journalism, also subscribed to Carol Cadwalladrโ€™s Substack today.

Tragically itโ€™s even harder for Russians post-Navalny to oppose Putinโ€™s regime. The oppression is total.

@natashaclark.bsky.social and @mrjamesob.bsky.social are united in their disdain for Kemi Badenoch after she defended JD Vanceโ€™s description of Britain as โ€˜some random country that hasnโ€™t fought a war in 30 or 40 years.โ€™

Far right honker, Nigel, furiously peddles stupid, prejudiced ideas that make you poorer. Then, when you are poorer, he tells you youโ€™re right to feel angry about that. But not with him.

The Conservative party is now using the grooming gangs scandal to raise money for itself.

A reminder that Kemi Badenoch's spokesman admitted yesterday that she hasn't even bothered to speak to any of the victims, and doesn't see the need to.
