Recent voter research by More in Common shows British audiences are far less tolerant of Trump-style disruption than Reform seems to assume. That gap matters. Read Luke Tryl's analysis ⤵️ @eastangliabylines.co.uk @moreincommonuk.bsky.social @luketryl.bsky.social

A viral image which supposedly shows Nigel Farage visiting a child with terminal cancer in hospital isn’t real. It’s based on a real picture of a boy with cancer, which has then been edited with the help of AI to include the Reform UK leader.
