I’d like to see the Tories go ahead of Reform in the polls……..just to see the rats who deserted the sinking ship try to crawl back on!

The US president said on Friday he had to act or else "Russia or China will take over Greenland", stepping up his threats about acquiring the Danish-administered territory. “We're not going to have Russia or China as a neighbour," Mr Trump said. Has anyone told him they already have!

If god forbid we end up with a Reform government in 2029 how many years will it take for the penny to drop that they can’t ’stop the boats’?
