Saturday 28th Feb. There are 150 responses to the voter poll since it went live on Thursday. Clearly this is a very small sample size so far, but as time goes on, the survey will become more useful. I've done some number crunching and the key findings are here.

Funny how politicians who are most keen on whining about immigration and refugees and asylum seekers are also very keen on starting the wars that create refugees and asylum seekers.

Really unsure about this headline. The SCOOP poll found Reform up 1 point in the constituency vote and 1 point on the list, i.e. not significant change.

If anyone "surged" it was the Scottish Greens, up 3 points in the constituency vote and 6 on the list.

The Iranian regime is undemocratic, repressive and we need a diplomatic solution to ensure it does not become a nuclear power.

All nations must uphold the rules-based international system โ€“ and the US and Israel must demonstrate how their actions align with that. (1/2)

The last time Iran attacked another country was 1856, it surprise attacked the British to drive them out.

But please tell use how a country that hasn't started a war for 170 years is dangerous.

But Israel and the US who have started half a dozen in one year aren't.

Westminster is 'out of touch' of challenges facing Scotland and Wales, says Swinney

Westminster is 'out of touch' and 'blind' to the challenges facing Scottish and Welsh communities, John Swinney has said, adding that both countries can do so 'much better' independently from the UK

As I understand it, the answer is

Yes - because their parents are economic migrants,

So working-class children aged 7 should face hurdles & barriers to secure status, family security & educational opportunity that affluent classmates & those in private schools will not

I despair. Iran didnโ€™t start the attack! What a moron Starmer is! Weโ€™ve been hearing that Iran must not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons for most of my life and Iโ€™m a pensioner!

The United States & Israel have launched an illegal and unprovoked attack on Iran.

Keir Starmer condemns Iran.

For much of my political lifetime, Hannah Spencer's views would have qualified her to be an unexceptional Labour MP. For Starmer to castigate the Greens as 'extreme left' is risible.

Channel 4 News last night. Completely dominated by English politics and references to โ€œthe countryโ€ etc etc.

A great symbol for Starmerโ€™s โ€œone nationโ€ delusion and the so-called โ€œunionโ€ - where only England matters.

Outwith England we might as well be watching news from France Spain or Germany.

Now that the by-election is over, perhaps we can get back to ignoring my racist bullying at school, Russian infiltration into my party, me lying about who paid for my house in Frinton and Reform run councils putting up council tax.

Seems as though Starmer and Farage got their sour grapes from the same grocer. Bitter, petulant, and very similar reaction to Greens win from both of them.
