"Even as Reform demands to be taken seriously, it shows how ridiculous it is. The party that supposedly loves Britain is promising to demolish its unwritten constitution within its first 100 days. "Farage, who barely bothers to show up to parliament, is claiming he’ll make it sit 24 hours a day."

thenewworld.co.ukNigel Farage talks big – but he’s a sinking man leading an angry, ridiculous partyFarage doesn’t understand the rules around political donations, but he wants to overhaul the entire British state in 100 days. And the voters aren’t buying it

The AfD and Reform immigration policies are almost identical. There is no plausible reason for considering one far right and the other not.

Adam Bienkov@adambienkov.bsky.social

Watching BBC News and it's striking to hear the presenters repeatedly referring to the AfD as "far-right" whilst refusing to ever say the same about the hundreds of actual masked blackshirts currently swarming British ports

I am bloody proud to be an #RNLI supporter and member! These brilliant men and women have quite enough to cope with without being harassed by the scum of the earth. Their only concern is to help people in danger at sea - not check passports first! Which is how it should be. Please RT if you agree🙏

Over on X, the far-right British Patriots have launched a hate campaign against the RNLI They are recording RNLI volunteers in order to dox them, reveal their identities and publish details of where they and their families live These men are dangerous

Ashamed of our Government - We have no backbone & should be standing firm not pandering to Trump & Russia. Trump created all the issues in the Gulf yet we are happy to follow in his stead rather than support Ukraine in a war not of their making. Totally weak! Labour you are losing us by the day

How did our country sink so low as to think this type of man could actually be taken seriously. What a hateful individual. Reform will do nothing for the people if this country & will only line their & their friends pockets with money. We as a nation need to wake up

Damn. It's always the good 'uns who leave us too soon. And Andy Kershaw was one. He certainly helped open my ears to new music, with his broad tastes and friendly voice. This is a sad day. Sincere commiserations to all those who knew and loved him. Rest easy mate... www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Despite City being perennial winners, and so much surrounding the club from the ownership to the investigation - the club insist on their innocence - there is a far greater will for Arsenal to lose A piece on why... and how this isn't new www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...

If one of my party's recent prime ministers had redecorated the Number 10 flat in a way that ended up involving TWO separate inquiries and a Wikipedia page, I would simply not have put out a press release confirming that the current prime minister had spent less than the allowance he was given.

💥 GOOD. Because that £240 million contract gifted to Palantir, with no competition… …after Starmer had an off-the-books meeting with Mandelson and Palantir… …while Mandelson was officially LOBBYING FOR Palantir and so personally financially benefiting from such links and contracts… Stinks.

What an admirably clear statement from the Jewish Leadership Council, especially when all of those involved must surely have been dealing with so many other urgent challenges in safety, security and grief + shock today before having this further divisive and distracting intervention to address too.

Farage has gone to the US to tell them Britain is ”awful” - If you don’t like it over here Nigel maybe don’t catch a return flight?

Outrageous. Trump has told the UK that if we want tariff relief we need to buy chlorinated chicken from the US! 🤢🐔 How dare he try and impose poor food standards in Britain. Sign the petition to keep chlorine-washed chicken off our shelves:

I mean, Trump has always been diametrically opposed to every populist principle he pretends to support, but I guess sometimes it takes releasing an accused rapist and human trafficker from custody for the phoniness to really sink in.

'Alright pal, got plans for the #BigGardenBirdwatch?' 'Nah, just the usual... hang out of sight whilst she's doing the count, then touch down once the hour's over. You?' 'Classic. Planning some fly-bys with a few of the boys, but we'll only land one at a time.' 'Niiice.'

Your reminder that neither the Conservative Party nor Reform UK called for a new inquiry into grooming gangs in their manifestos just six months ago. I won’t bother searching for editorials from the same period but I don’t imagine such calls were there either

Yvette Cooper scolds Chris Philp like a petulant child for politicising grooming gangs Look at how he's slumped in his seat, he knows he's shamed himself And his arrogance, ego and pride expose him for the political charlatan that he is, dividing, instead of bringing together for progress

“While [the ‘liberal’ political-media class] are comfortable attending Spectator parties, pontificating on podcasts, going on tour, and offering hot takes, the country risks sleepwalking into a dangerous abyss. And not everyone will have the privilege to be shielded from the worst elements of this.”
