Count Binface wants water bosses to swim in rivers to prove they’re clean. He could win a by-election on that policy alone.

Binface would have won a couple of decades ago before his vote was split between plastics, food waste, cardboard.

This is cool. Spurs have applied to install around 3,800 solar panels on the roof of their north London stadium. "The proposed 1.64MW system would give the ground a substantial source of on-site renewable electricity."

I spoke to Mitch McConnell today and he asked me straight out for a gottle of geer. The nurse standing right next to him didn't say anything.

Nigel Farage is taking a big risk.

A Meta data center in Wyoming has infected the local water system with a rare bacterium known as cupriavidus gilardii.

If proof were needed that Reform UK is nothing more than Farage's ego with a nice turquoise logo attached. He genuinely sees the fight against Count Binface as being more worthy of his activists' time than the Manchester mayoralty elections. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Now that it's clear from the national press that Tice, Farage and Jenrick are all having their dodgy finances investigated, it's becoming equally clear that, internally, Reform UK are having a Mexican Leak-Off.

It has been criminally underreported but Kelsey Pfendler has just rowed solo across the Pacific Ocean from the US coast to Hawaii in record time. A 2,400-mile unsupported journey in 43 days, 17 hours, and 55 minutes. Notably beating the Men’s record by 9 whole days.

Having failed to interest any papers in this story, I resorted to writing a letter to The Times, like in olden times. So when all that's left to watch is NASCAR racing sponsored by Cheetos, I can at least say I tried. #ITV #Sky #Comcast

How strong is that fan?!?

Some japester clearly told Nigel Farage that the Stewardship and Bailiwick of the Manor of Northstead pays REALLY well

BBC News: Reform UK considering delaying the Clacton byelection until September, but they seem to think the standards investigation can proceed in parallel. It can't. And Farage seems to think a byelection will "settle the matter". It can't. #BBCPM

Count Binface vs Nigel Farage. Brace yourself for more rubbish jokes than you thought possible. But at least they'll be endlessly recycled.

Serious question (or as serious as a question that includes the words "Count Binface" can be): If Farage were to lose and become a global laughing stock, how impeded would his opportunities to grift internationally be?

This bloke needs a good kicking for publishing Farage’s daughter’s residence several times.

It could be Farage versus Binface in the battle for Clacton’s hearts and minds after all main politcal parties ruled themselves out of running in the by-election The intergalactic crusader Count Binface has told the other leaders ‘leave him to me’

Reading all the Nigel Farage / Count Binface coverage this morning. Voltaire's prayer has been well and truly answered.

Can't believe that our politics has become so degraded that the Clacton by-election is going to provide nothing more than the humiliating spectacle of a complete and utter joke candidate standing against Count Binface.

So, there is a precedent for vetoing an MP's resignation Viscount Chelsea (Henry Cadogan) applied for the Chiltern Hundreds in 1842 The Chancellor (Goulburn) refused because, get this, Cadogan wanted to resign to obstruct an investigation for bribery h/t @fascinatorfun.bsky.social and @gazhay.com

Has any other politician ever called a by-election on an explicitly anti-transparency, pro-sleaze ticket before?

Been reading a few conspiratorial posts about Chris Mason in relation to Farage and the truth is much more mundane imv - he's just not very good at his job.
