Reform looking to turf care home residents out of council facilities. It’s hardly a surprise I guess especially given Farage’s preference for privatisation. You’ve got to wonder what that Reform member, Phil Price, thought he was voting for. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Excellent news. www.kentonline.co.uk/ashford/news...

There’s never a dull moment with Reform in charge. Five more chucked out of the party including my local county councillor Brian Black. What a bleeding shambles. Five Reform UK councillors booted out of party www.bbc.com/news/article...

Sad to see a historic club like Wednesday in such dire straits. Bad owners (and their egos) can really screw over a football club and often have little interest or concern for what it means to the supporters. Time for Chansiri to move on and let them rebuild. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Frightful to see what Gardai are being faced with when dealing with racist thugs in Dublin.

Reform councillors continuing their internal warfare rather than focusing on the job that they’ve been elected to do at Kent County Council. The county council is being led by incompetents.

Surely Starmer, Davey and Badenoch should have had access to this information before they started pontificating so bloody righteously on the subject. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Surely Linden Kemkaran brought the Reform party into disrepute by her behaviour on the virtual meeting? Perhaps she should be the fifth suspension?

Seems like the Birmingham safety advisory group are right to worry about Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters coming to Aston Villa. Maybe our politicians should stop interfering and let the experts make informed decisions to reduce the “risk to human lives”. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

I'll Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Play Moate, Co. Westmeath Again). Only a couple of years before his 1993 comeback, Meat Loaf was reduced to touring the provincial towns of Ireland: here's a brilliant piece on how that went for him www.loudersound.com/features/mea...

Reform’s Linden Kemkaran is just going to have to fucking suck it up when she’s called the new Jackie Weaver! www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

As a resident of Kent it’s shocking, but maybe not surprising, to see that this is how Reform run things. These guys should not be in control of Kent’s services and billions of pounds of council tax revenue. It’s important to think carefully before casting a vote www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Another Reform councillor suspended. Almost certainly won’t be the last. www.kentonline.co.uk/maidstone/ne...

Pretty certain that this was her final conference speech.

"The devoted Boxer, sold to the glue factory so that the pigs can buy themselves a few cases of beer, can be seen as a stand-in not only for the Soviet working class but for all the MAGA faithful getting screwed by Trump’s policies." www.thebulwark.com/p/animal-far...

“I would gently point out to Nigel Farage that before we left the EU we had a returns agreement with every country in the EU. He told the country it would make no difference if we left. He was wrong about that. These are Farage boats in many senses coming across the channel” 👏 PM Keir Starmer

Great to see European teamwork win out against American individualism. There’s a lesson in there somewhere. www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/s...

You’ve got to hope that one day American voters will come to the realisation that the right to not be shot should override the right to bear arms. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Starmer is 100% right. Farage’s plan is racist and immoral and needs to be called out as such. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

A cracking all-round team performance today by #cafc. That’s how to send the supporters home happy!

Another fine example of what you get as your representative when you vote Reform. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Another Reform politician is found out. They’re not to be trusted. Ex-Reform politician admits Russia-linked bribery charges www.bbc.com/news/article...

Ah lads. Those Reform eejits are really losing their minds.

Giving interviews like this to the Telegraph is playing right into Reform and Tory hands. They’ve been trying to destabilise the Labour Party since the moment they got into government. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Glad to see the law catching up with Blighe. He’s going to love checking in with Fermoy gardai twice a week. www.irishexaminer.com/news/courtan...

I can’t believe that too many will be disappointed.

President Trump has fanned the flames of the far-right. And now a toxic form of politics is spilling out onto our streets. These are dark times, but those who seek to divide us will not win. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

There’s a bit of good news for a Monday morning!

Hardly ranks as a major misdemeanour, especially given the president’s record. Bet he’s not the only voter thinking twice about not having voted for Harris last November. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Israel launching attacks in Qatar and Russian drones in NATO territory. All this shit going down with that imbecile in the White House. Coincidence or because Netanyahu and Putin believe that they can do whatever they like without fear of him standing up to them? www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

Nice ‘n Sleazy does it for Boris Johnson. Funnily enough the Mail and Telegraph don’t seem to have noticed his shenanigans. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

She’s not wrong.

Good to see the back of the “when they go low we go high” stuff. MAGA folk never care about the high moral ground but Newsom will be riling them by going just as low as Trump. He’s building his profile for the next presidential election too. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Reinforcing the fact that Reform party leaders have no interest in ordinary working people, other than garnering their votes under false pretences come election time.

Reform UK accused of serving a ‘plate of chaos’ at Leicestershire county council

Well feckity feck. What a great first day back in the championship for #cafc

There goes the neighbourhood.

Past time for the UK government to stand up. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Never a dull moment with Reform politicians!

It’s time the political rhetoric in the US was dialled down, starting from the top in the White House. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Seems like the Reform “Doge” team members are already realising efficiencies in Kent by firing themselves. Clown shows aren’t just the remit of the US! www.kentonline.co.uk/kent/news/re...

The calm before the storm. So good to see (and hear) the stadium full last night and what an incredible finish by #cafc. Looking forward to Wembley again.

They’ll have a job finding any highlights to discuss at half-time in the Wycombe v #cafc game. Main focus should be that dreadful foul by Kone on Ramsay.

Good for #cafc to get back to winning ways leading into the playoffs against Wycombe. Fair play to the Burton fans who got right behind their team. Especially liked their banana conga around the Jimmy Seed stand!

Great to see the Valley with a decent turnout today. I’ve seen #cafc play better this season but they got the job done and a guaranteed playoff spot. Can’t complain.

It’s bad enough that she has felt that the Tories need to reach out to Reform - worse that Farage has rejected those overtures. Seems like Badenoch is really leading the Conservatives towards oblivion. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
