So, Sunday Times runs with latest poll showing Farage winning if there was an election now. But makes NO mention of Reform’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.

*sniggers*

As if our health services aren't already stretched and didn't have enough to do, the NHS has to waste time creating stuff like this to counter false and malicious information. Ffs.

Huge congrats and shout-out to my bro, who is about to publish his latest book.

Brexit is the toxic epicentre of the political shitshow we now have to endure. It promoted idiocy and deceit, endorsed racism, divided us, made us poorer, weaker, less safe and less sane. It’s belittled the country, killed the Tory party and given birth to Reform. A relentless klaxon of failure.

I'm Polish and I've eaten carp. But it was brought over from Poland, because literally noone would eat fish caught in shit-filled, filthy UK rivers. I've never heard of a culture that eats swans, so he needs to provide proof. Without proof, it never happened and is a lie.

Well, someone has to. Labour is giving him free rein.

Lot of truth to this.

Why are the American president's claims about autism the first item on British news bulletins? He's not our president, the advice doesn't apply here and he's not presented any evidence to support his assertions. So why spread these claims? What make this the biggest story in the UK?

Reminds me of our pre-natal classes when the partner of one of the other pregnant women said "they" were opting for a natural birth with no pain relief. Seriously, men have no place commenting on the pain of birth or making these decisions for women. You have no idea. Just stfu.

Ed Davey, "I'm afraid Nigel Farage should be apologising for helping cause this problem in the first place" "Before Brexit we didn't have a small boats problem because we had 27 return agreements with EU countries and we could return people" -Maybe we should call them Farage's Brexit Boats

It would be good if the only political pushback against Nigel Farage's plans to mass deport hundreds of thousands of our neighbours, friends, family and colleagues didn't just come from a handful of backbench MPs and one regional mayor

A committee of MPs has come up with a plan to improve SEND in English schools - but do you agree with it? www.schoolmanagementplus.com/ceo-trust-le... #SEND #SCHOOLS @dotlepkowska.bsky.social

The Red Arrows? FFs

Arrested on charges of "Malicious communications", for projecting a picture of 2 fully clothed men onto a building? Seriously, are we still pretending we're free to peacefully protest, cos it increasingly doesn't look like that.

I am struggling to comprehend that our government and the ‘royal’ family are giving credence and a state visit to a convicted criminal, rapist and paedophile like Trump. I am appalled and ashamed. Any allegiance I had to the crown and our ruling masters (and that wasn’t much) is now gone.

Companies - do with Christmas what you do for Mothers and Fathers days & allow people to opt out of your emails. Seriously, just sod off with Christmas in September. I don't want to hear it, I don't want to 'spread the cost'. We have less than 8 Christmas-free months a year in the UK. F-ing insane!

Written by a doctor at St Thomas' Hospital, London after the Tommy Robinson march on 13/9.

There's no excuse of ignorance any more. Every single person on that fascist march knew who Tommy Robinson was and every single one of them knew why they were there. This isn't Brexit. People weren't conned. They willingly went out to join in, led by a five times jailed thug. Stop making excuses.

In normal times, she should be sacked for this.

We need more of this from our MPs. Especially those in the party of government

Elon Musk dials into a Tommy Robinson rally to say “whether you choose violence or not, violence is coming to you, you either fight back or you die” Musk, who doesn’t live here & and never has, is trying to make people who do fear for their lives. It’s an open attempt to create a culture of fear.

Our democracy is too precious to be a plaything for foreign tech barons. Elon Musk doesn’t care about the British people or our rights. He only cares about himself and his ego.

Why in this Mandelson saga are we ignoring the elephant in the room? That we’re about to welcome and honour a man who was a great pal of Epstein and who continues to lie about that every day?

Hey @number10cat.bsky.social . You're in Hostage twice. Great acting.

1. 24 years ago today, I was in a bar in Cape Town with a friend who lived there and what had put me up for a week while I worked on an article on schools in the townships. I was working for the Daily Mirror and it was my farewell lunch as I was about to fly home.

Nothing screams "I need to look up who Charlie Kirk is" than this from Johnson.

'Film night' here. We've finished The Gathering and just starting Hostage. Riveting.

That orange pervert will be in our country in eight days. I want a PM with the balls to tell him he's no longer welcome.

Knew there'd be a reason to dislike it eventually...

A river bed round the back of our house. We've seen no water for months. This is not normal.

So, Reform Party chair, David Bull (seen here wearing a panty pad of sympathy when Trump got shot on the ear) and anti-vax crank, Dr Malhotra (who thinks the Covid vaccine gave the royals cancer)… 🤡⚠️wrote Reform’s “health policy” together🤡⚠️ How TF is Reform not being laughed out of the door?

The BBC's Chris Mason continues to serve as the midwife of fascism. Farage is a lying, racist, tax-dodging fascist, traitor, who seems weirdly sympathetic to sexual predators like Trump, Tate, and Conor McGregor. But Mason doesn't think those facts are newsworthy www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Anyway, all this antivax nonsense reminded me to contact the pharmacy about our jabs.

Chris Mason is a profoundly unserious man who writes about politics as if it were a video game with no real consequences. True to form, this article is purely about optics. Not a single policy is mentioned www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

D's sourdough, inspired by the Taylor Swift podcast.

It’s clear there is no lie too low or dangerous for Farage and his acolytes. Let there be no doubt: Reform are a threat to our health. We cannot let them get their hands on our NHS. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I suppose it's too much to ask for the Royals to come out and say something to dispel this nonsense.

Why hasn't the party in government done this?

Last one standing. All my petunia have gone now bar this one. Reckon its produced upwards of 500 flowers in the past 6 months. It just keep going...

Can we take a minute to recognise Angela Rayner has taken accountability by owning up to her mistake, correcting it, referring herself to ministerial standards & now resigning. Not one single Tory MP did this & was always backed by the prime minister especially Boris Johnson. #UkPolitics

I hope the excellent, Canadian teen dance show sues them for using this title.

Reform, the party of bonkers people with mad views, is being confirmed at its party conference. Times sketch writer Tom Peck says Andrea Jenkyns came on stage wearing a sequin jump suit and singing/shouting the words “I’m an insomniac” - a song she wrote herself.

Hey, have you seen this? @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social @bbc-politics.bsky.social @skynewsrss.bsky.social @telegraphnews.bsky.social @dailymailpolitics.bsky.social @gbnewscorporate.bsky.social @dailyexpressnews.bsky.social

On the same day in the Telegraph:

Nadine Dorries has joined Reform UK. This is what Nigel Farage thinks of her.
