Robert Jenrick tells Times Radio Nigel Farage wasn't part of the donations scandal as he just had lunch. He said: "You can't criticise a leader for saying thank you over lunch to someone. I know a lot of slings and arrows are thrown at Nigel Farage, but being polite is not a crime these days"

These meetings of Reform bosses successfully conspiring to get pro-Reform stories in the paper, yet hiding their involvement, and caught red-handed on camera, were conducted in the English language. Clearly, it’s a conspiracy - Channel Four want us all to speak French instead. 🤡

And Mad Nads is busy running round like a drunk chicken with its head cut off, telling anyone who'll listen, that there was no crime committed as no money landed in their b/acc, the fact that they thought they'd found a way round that & wld've broken the law, has gone completely over her head!

An (anonymous?) Conservative Party MP on Jenrick when Jenrick was running to be Conservative Party leader: He’s the kind of guy that if you told him he’d get 1 percent extra in the polls by beheading a kitten on College Green he’d do it without question.

(Hope you don’t mind my asking, as an American I’m curious.) How much of Reform do you think is due to Farage having a base of support, vs being a movement independent of him? Will Reform continue as a growing party if he steps down or would it be likely to fizzle out?
