Talk about saying the silent part through a fog horn. Doesn't need votes. Doesn't need to win the mid-term. He's demolishing part of the original White House to make a gawdy ballroom with $200 million OF OUR PUBLIC MONEY. There won't be a general election in 2028.

Amazing story in The Times. Reform UK failed to pay VAT to HMRC on its sales (tickets, merchandise). About £400k in all. Not tax avoidance. Not tax evasion. They just didn't realise when you sell stuff you have to charge VAT.
