On Reform's Danny Kruger's reported complaints about parties being 'LGBT-supporting', a Lib Dem source says it's "disgraceful and completely unacceptable." "Farage's MPs clearly have views that are completely out of step with modern Britain." He "must confirm if he agrees with these comments."

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97. 12 days of work in over 3 months. With full pay and benefits. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Puzzle as loss-making firm donates to Reform UK

This article was so bad the Times have removed it.

Oh look. Grooming gang victim who resigned from inquiry is doing a joint press conference with Farage.

Farage: epic grifter

Seeing as the BBC is unwilling to square the circle, allow @bylinetimes.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2023/10/13/m...

@lbcwatchuk.bsky.social With all we’ve been discussing at the weekend, Nick Ferrari seems to have been most exercised by the cost of an ergonomic desk and chairs while interviewing Steve Reed MP on social housing reforms. It’s a curious world 🤨

“Let’s be clear, since a lot of people seem to be finding that difficult: most people who get upset if they see black or brown faces in adverts are racists. There are few other reasons for seeing diversity in advertising to bother anyone.” www.thenewworld.co.uk/james-ball-s...

My apologies to Katie Lam, who should be front & centre here…

Nothing on the BBC Radio news this morning. Nothing I could find on their website. This is an MP from the party whose lead in the opinion polls normally ensures them wall-to-wall coverage. She spouts racist nonsense for which even she feels obliged to apologise. What on earth are they playing at?

Found out about this one from the Labour press release condemning it, and it was a real trip to learn that this wasn’t “a Labour staffer with a tape recorder at a private event” story but a “she just said it on national TV” story.

Or end the interview. Starve him of the oxygen of publicity.

The face of someone that just realised Nigel Farage deserted them. Turns out it was a by-election, not a buy-election.

You may have seen quite a bit of news from Caerphilly today. But how much have you seen about the Reform candidate’s relationship with Nathan Gill?? Anything? Nothing? Watch & read @johnsweeneyroar.bsky.social on the trail of ‘Moscow Gold’ bsky.app/profile/then...

Mad Moments in British politics - RefUK’s Caerphilly candidate Llŷr Powell has deleted thousands of social media posts, including exchanges with his former boss Nathan Gill - the man who was bribed by Putin, the butcher of innocent Ukrainians. What does he try to hide?

Thank you to @mrjamesob.bsky.social for having me on, one of the v few people in the UK press to follow this story during what is now a decade of media apathy &/or complicity

Watch this👇🏼👇🏼👌🏼 Leaked film of Reform leader of their flagship Kent County Council swearing at other councillors, demonstrating management skills akin to Hitler.. She’s furious it’s been leaked so for God’s sake don’t Repost it 👍🏼 KCC is Reform proving they’re ready to run the UK… into the ground❗️🤦🏼‍♂️

"I was completely unaware of any statements that he made." Nigel Farage on Gill's pro-Russian statements in European Parliament. Here's Nigel Farage & Nathan Gill in European Parliament. ⬇️ They mostly turned up to make pro-Russian/anti-EU statements.

My colleagues & I have taken a huge gamble to set up @thenerve.news We’re trying to build a new independent publication from the ground up. Social media is our only distribution for now. Sharing this article in your networks would make a huge difference. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏

Just watched the full 55min doc on Netflix: Famous Last Words: Dr. Jane Goodall. Probably the most moving & poignant 55mins of captivating beauty that made me weep uncontrollably for sadness & joy in equal measure. The wisdom and integrity of this amazing human will stay with me forever. RIP Dr JG ❤️

@sturdyalex.bsky.social for once my AI is not hallucinating. Asked for the latest fiascos & got old news.

It helps to be able to spell the country you say only you are competent enough to run.

"I hope Starmer wakes up tomorrow morning and feels ashamed about what he has done," says man who unveiled this poster the day Jo Cox was assassinated by a far-right terrorist.

How weird that this should have disappeared from the Telegraph archive...

An exclusive YouGov poll, commissioned by Best for Britain finds: 62% of Brits say that Brexit has been more of a failure. Many blame Boris Johnson for it. They associate mostly anger and frustration with Brexit. Full research here: https://bit.ly/4mv524J

German media seems to be taking more seriously than ours the fact a leading light in the party UK press keeps saying will be next government took bribes from Russia to spout their lies. Maybe it’s because they put NEWS ahead of propaganda

How is this not front page news? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Disney investors demand details into company’s Jimmy Kimmel suspension

Good. Keep calling him out. Try it on daytime TV, too, when the idiots may be watching.

Eh, I can personally attest to the fact that you can’t actually say “whatever the fuck your want” on RTE 🤷🏼‍♀️

Sky News says police are "overwhelmed by the numbers". Met coped perfectly well with 2x as many at the pro-Gaza rally, 5x as many at the anti-Brexit march, and 15x as many at London Pride. They're not overwhelmed by the numbers. They're overwhelmed by the ratio of violent thugs in those numbers.

Farage promise to "stop the boats within two weeks of winning gov't" unravelling. Apparently, it means "after passing laws", "as quickly as possible", he "believes", the boats will still cross, but all will be deported "if necessary" and "sensible", "unless we have a duty of care". Bravo, Beth! 👏🏽

"He's done everything he could to break down this country, and now he's going off to tell everyone abroad how broken we are." Nigel Farage loves the UK so much, he flew to America this week to tell Congress how awful it is. Is this patriotism?

UK 30 year gilt yield, down from the breathlessly reported 5.75%, is now 5.51%. Not that you will hear this from all the journalist accounts who were gunning for Reeves all week. Please share.

Tice dismissed the suggestion that his party had brought chaos to County Durham Council after two of its councillors quit, triggering by-elections and a third was suspended. "There's no chaos, there is success." 😂🤣😂 What would failure look like? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I am AMAZED there are not more people at the very least pointing out that this lightning-fast deterioration in Trump's health, happened only a few days after he had a lovely cup of Polonium tea and a slice of Novichok marble cake, with his best friend from Moscow.

Reform UK, the right leaning think tank Policy Exchange, and some Labour grandees, are all pushing for us to either leave the ECHR, or disapply parts of it temporarily or permanently. This puts me, you and everyone at risk, not just those seeking sanctuary.

King Charles III is meant to be putting on a state visit for Trump in 16 days. But the POTUS is lying extremely low, not putting an end to the mounting speculation about his ill health, nor doing much on socials. At this rate, the visit might be a funeral, or a state visit for JD Vance.
