Plenty have clocked how Nigel Farage talks to women journalists — pure condescension: “listen, love,” “go write your silly little story.” Know your place. No shock from a man who praises Andrew Tate. The real surprise? It’s only being called out now.

Laura Kuenssberg starts her 'Reform: Ready to Rule?' by saying that via the polls "the public are now showing us who they want to see in power" - i.e. Reform. Completely & obviously untrue. Reform has been polling around 25%. So 75% do NOT want to see Reform in power.

1,173 people were shot dead by "law enforcement" in the USA last year. In the UK, it was 2. The US population is 6x that of the UK, so go ahead and multiply the second figure by 6. Then explain to me why this massively disproportionate rate of killing is so.

It's important to assume that Reform in Government would indeed try to do this. The right thing is not to tell the public that this won't happen - so they can therefore vote for Reform without guilt - but rather that a vote for Reform is a vote for the suffering of hundreds of thousands of people.
