Don't let Reform UK, Restore Britain and Patriot Platform hypocrites try to hide the fact that their hate, intolerance, vigilante violence have more in common with the Nazis than with the hundreds of thousands who died fihghting fascism meme via Ross Birchall

What is the BBC's justification for maintaining this level of coverage of Reform now it has slipped into third place?

Alex Andreou@sturdyalex.bsky.social

BBC News just interrupted its coverage to go, live, to Nigel Farage - a man with no contitutional standing in our setup - responding to the budget - a document which nobody has seen yet. WHY

Jenrick on #r4today trying to downplay the raging racism of Reform… by saying “Farage has done more than anyone else to stand up against racism and the far right”. Farage the schoolboy Nazi. Farage the ‘breaking point’ Brexiter. Farage the mass-deportations champion. Farage the far right racist.

DAVROS is planning a romantic candlit soirée. "Gruntleigh, go and find the most RECENT regeneration of the Doctor for my date. She's quite the poppet!" But when me DO turn up with the latest Doctor, Davros not impressed at all for some reason. 🤷‍♂️

We keep being told that Reform are in a position to win the next general election. But almost every single time the public get the chance to elect a Reform MP, they decided against it!

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

Full marks to Bobby J for not bothering to mention that this was entirely due to being given £45 million from the Labour government and told to do it. Even a Reform council couldn't fuck that up.

Farage honks his mouth off about ongoing police investigations, when told not to. His Welsh leader is in prison for taking bribes from Russia. He whips up riots. He’s in bed with Trump, foreign money, crooks and crypto billionaires…. A massive problem with national security is Farage himself.

Despite being a famous Hollywood star if you want to know what sort of person DAVID NIVEN was, the largest wreath at his funeral was from the Porters at Heathrow Airport. It read: “To the finest gentleman who ever walked through these halls. He made a Porter feel like a King.”

This article in today's @theguardian.com contains what is surely one of the greatest understatements of all time: “President Trump doesn’t have a very strong sense of decorum” - Michael Adams, professor of English language at Indiana University Bloomington www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Pope Innocent III,who died in 1216, spoke of a certain kind of older man, who is "easily provoked", "will believe anything and question nothing", is "stingy and greedy" and "praises the good old days and hates the present." Reform UK's voter base has been knocking around for a very long time.

What’s your legacy Johnson? Brexit. Total collapse of trust in politics. And this. The small boats symbolise your dishonesty and your failure. You’re responsible for nothing but damage. Not one good thing. Not one proud moment. You’re forever a shameful disgrace who threw his own mandate in the bin.

#BorisJohnson is a self-serving congenital liar.

Otto English@ottoenglish.bsky.social

Liar. Small boat crossings peaked under Johnson in 2022 reaching 46,000 in 2022. In current year they are 18,565 and falling. Also prior to Boris Johnson's Brexit there were none.

This wasn’t just the moment a dog found a home. It was the moment he realized someone had finally chosen him. The way he looks up at his new person says more than any caption ever could. 🥺❤️

Labour, Lib Dems, Greens, Plaid & SNP should all unite in a pledge to rejoin the EU. They don’t agree on much but they do all agree Brexit has been a financial and strategic disaster. It could unite progressive opinion and challenge the far right. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I’d like to thank everyone on Twitter who has spoken out to denounce Andy Burnham’s move to tackle misinformation. The fact that all the Russian bots are saying exactly the same thing is pure coincidence.
