Pointed out to some Starmer supporters on here that local members not being allowed to choose if they want Burnham as their candidate is undemocratic, and not a single one of them was willing to even try to explain why that is good. Just stuff about Burnham being bad etc. Just a no principles cult.

This is why Braverman and Farage want to leave ECHR They want an ICE type force in this country and don't want to be 'hamstrung' by inconsequential things like human rights!

So Reform is taking all the shit people that nobody voted for from the Tories and then presenting them as a new force for change in politics? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

She wants to lock everyone up? Honestly, she makes the Tories look like wimps. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

What on earth could the person on the Clapham omnibus be thinking if they voted on the principle of 'let someone else have a go, it can't be any worse' and was actually getting this lot. Farage is surely going to have trouble selling this ?

Farage & the ex cons: 1999 onwards: We need to leave the EU 2016: Brexit will fix the problems of this country! The EU will give us everything we want, no downsides! 2021: Brexit 2022 onwards: The country’s broken, let us back in to fix it. Sod off!

If anyone is in any doubt, I am not, nor have I ever been, a fan of Starmer. For me he is Labour with a blue tie. The right of the party did everything possible to destroy Labour. Equally, I am not extreme left. I just want a Labour Party that represents British people. Undo Brexit!

If Sir Keir Starmer is serious about ending the far right threat from Reform & reducing corruption in our political system, he change political party donation laws: 1. You can’t donate unless you’re domiciled in the UK. 2. Introduce much lower caps. 3. Implement full transparency.

“More than half of Reform's MPs were elected as Tories in 2019. At what point does Reform cease to be Farage's new party and start being Johnson's old one?”

January 2026: "Farage said he had been talking to Braverman for "just over a year" about the possibility of defecting" (www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...) Farage in July 2025:

Robert Jenrick, Suella Braverman, Nadhim Zahawi, and Danny Kruger now represent a significant part of Reform's parliamentary representation. How, in that case, Farage can claim that he represents anything new is very hard to imagine He's fucking lying as usual

Never forget that this is what Farage wants for the UK.

Nigel #Farage is sabotaging his own party: Initial thoughts on #Braverman switching teams... #ReformUK Via @writesbright.bsky.social

So, nearly all the people responsible for turning Britain into a skip fire are now in Reform. This is the same Reform that is promising to fix said skip fire, and is currently leading in the polls. This is the state of UK politics. How utterly depressing. #SuellaBraverman

To prevent Burnham from reaching Westminster. Starmer will come to regret this decision.

Why would gammons who feel let down by the Tories move their votes to Reform if it's all the same people

Now add Cruella...! And these are only the prominent ones! Just how many more Tories will have to join up, before Reform 2025 Limited can't criticise the last government, because they *are* the last government? Not so much Reform as Re-form... 😂🤮

Or collectively the people who destroyed the UK through austerity. The welcome by Farage rather goes to show where Reform will take us if we allow them to.

Cruelly Braverman has now jumped the dyke. Imagine anyone, anyone with any sense at all, choosing to have Nigel Farage as your boss?

Farage IS Reform. A former Conservative who moved to UKIP - later resurrected as Brexit Party Ltd and now rebadged as Reform, an anagram of former. Farage's Party is now filling up with corrupt, cruel, incompetent Tories.

So Suella Braverman is sick of the Tories lies and betrayal (me too). But I wonder if she could confirm when the lies and betrayal actually started. I have a pretty good hunch 😃. And of course, she may therefore have played an active part in lying and betraying Brits.

Tories forced to retract Braverman mental health claim https://www.newsbeep.com/us/431320/ Your support helps us to tell the story From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The…

If this continues, 2 things could happen. 1) The Lib Dems will become HM Opposition 2) The Tories may become vaguely electable again, albeit from a base of 60 MPs

Nigel Farage: “Welcoming talent in”

Nah pal you don’t stand with fascist murderers, you just mouth off in total safety in the UK pretending to be a councillor for a party that pretends its not a far right political hate mob run by a man who pretends he isnt a racist grifting tag nut up Trumps arsehole🤷‍♀️ #ReformWankers #Conform #Farage

Johnson culled the Tory Party of all but its grimmest dregs & now the grimmest of the grimmest dregs are defecting to Reform. It would be funny if it didn't alllow them, along with Farage, to pretend that they're not responsible for the state of the nation.

I am just gonna say it, these guys are completely emasculated by the knowledge that they have been out-organized by a group that is significantly made up of women, and all the bullshit call of duty nonsense is cope for their wounded egos bsky.app/profile/jeet...

Braverman is one of the most repulsive politicians out there. Vicious, fascistic, useless, without principle, loyalty or *any* actual genuine success to her name. Just cheating, lying, letting people down and delivering failure. No wonder she feels she’s “come home” to Reform. It’s a perfect fit.

Seventeen breaches of disclosure rules by Farage with exactly zero consequences. The excuse? He's far too busy, important, overwhelmed and confused by computers. This, however, isn’t a one-off failure - it’s a system that now treats confusion and busyness as mitigation rather than misconduct.

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 Suella Braverman defects to Reform UK. Another failed Tory joins Farage. Vote for Reform UK, get the worst of the Tories.

It would be cheaper and more effective economically to deport the 268,000 paid-up members of Reform UK. On the whole, migrants are much more productive and better integrated than Reform’s treacherous quislings. www.bbc.com/news/article...

This is one of the biggest stories in America, comparable in scale to what’s happening in Minnesota. The largest social media platform is transferred to Trump’s allies and immediately forbids you from saying anything bad about him. Absolutely totalitarian in nature. No different than China.

This is why Starmer is vulnerable to a challenge. Weak, wobble and terrified. Labour thinks the UK are not adult enough to accept the truth and deal with it. We know there was interference, in elections, lies and cheating in Brexit and skullduggery in Covid contracts. No one held to account yet.

What an opportunity to stick it to Farage, to expose the source of the Russian £8 million, to reveal his links to Russia. What is it with Labour? They never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity. So pathetic, so useless.

Labour puts the Housing minister (!) in charge of a sham investigation into foreign interference in elections and refuses to publish the terms of reference. Will Russian interference in the Brexit referendum be covered? In your dreams!

This is insane. She, and a Native American woman, were physically hurt and scared for their lives.

The government is testing Crowborough as a site because the racists all lost their minds over asylum seekers being housed in hotels... so obviously the racists are all losing their minds over that instead. So much time on their hands. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

It's not just the UK. The reason for the cost of living crisis is late stage capitalism. The answer is to tax the wealthy. There are parties who do want to tax the wealthy: Greens and Plaid Cymru. Parties that don't want to introduce wealth taxes: Reform, etc

Reform councillors posting pro-ICE content on social media.

The ICE murders in Minneapolis are a “glimpse of what happens when fear and loathing of migrants curdles into toxic tribalism, another grim warning for all those European voters flirting with the far-right and dark forces of nationalism.” That’s Reform in the UK. liveapp.inews.co.uk/category/418...

Everyone to the left of Starmer is purged. Everyone to the right of Starmer is already Tory or Reform. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Be in no doubt: the far right in the UK - Reform, Farage, Tommy Robinson and their supporters - are looking at what is happening in the US and saying: “That’s what we must have here.”

The people financing Farage are the biggest danger to Britain. Greedy billionaires whose selfish greed is unlimited.

This utterly damning about Starmer's decision on Burnham, and entirely correct www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

This whole assertion that the Tories lost because voters disliked internal “psychodrama” strikes me as simply wrong empirically. They won elections through an extended period of intraparty drama and they lost quite concretely because of partygate, crashing the economy, and the cost of living crisis
