He will certainly seek to make trouble. Agreed. I’m sure Starmer, Cooper and others will take great care to make it difficult for him. But one key factor is delivering change to minimise the vacuum that Farage seeks to exploit.

Sums it up nicely. Glad to see the old conservative fridge-freezer dumped and put into the crusher. The space it took up will be much better used going forward …

I thoroughly expect the protocols and behaviour in Westminster will change radically from a permissive/complacent environment from Johnson-Truss-Sunak era to a tight and disciplined environment of Starmer-Cooper era. Reform’s access will be tightly controlled.

This man is making his evil intentions as crystal-clear as they possibly could be, and everyone who cares about humanity should be blasting that message out in every possible venue.

And if your moral compass is truly broken you end up in broken places. Party before country. Welcome to conservative brexit Britain. Looking forward to gaining some perspective and direction over the next five, ten and fifteen years. Time for a conservative extinction event. Vote, vote, vote!

Just disgraceful of Sunak to say Putin wants a Labour win. The Tories have filled their coffers with Russian money, destabilised the EU with Brexit, put Lebedev in the Lords and suppressed the Russia Report. What a despicable and undignified end to a reprehensible 14yrs in power.

The dissenting opinion on Trump's immunity case put out by Justice Sotomayor (joined by Justice Kagan and Justice Jackson) is nothing short of an 11th hour warning against an approaching dictatorship in America.

Polls are saying the Tories could win anything from 27 to 168 seats.

It's not enough to change the government on Thursday.

We need to lock the Tories out of power for a decade.

Get out and vote Thursday ! #votetactically #generalElection2024

Welcoming to the lived experience of standards in public governance in the UK. Think Johnson, covid, brexit, etc. Based on the “good chap” theory. The people directing policy will be good people and will be held in check by other good people. What happens when they are not good? See Johnson. Oh!

This is getting ridiculous - how can Farage constantly get airtime with no one pointing out to him & viewers the Brexit he championed has by almost every economic & financial measure been disastrous for the UK?

If that outrages you as much me RT this widely

I’m staying up until I can sleep comfortably. Estimates based on MRP polls suggest a majority potentially being established in the range of 03:30-04:00. Don’t snooze too late. 🤞 Friday booked off!

Well, let’s be fair. They increase the national debt which falls on everyone but are highly competent at funneling the money into private hands. With the conservatives national debt increases with private wealth.

Thanks for the article. Facebook pages not being who they purport to be? And Meta saying they are taking action whilst taking no action with the accounts explicitly identified to them. I’d like to say I am surprised and disappointed but Facebook and Meta are as trustworthy as Farage and Reform.

Labour really won’t bankrupt every generation. That’s the conservatives. Conservatives borrow more than Labour - ask the ONS. We can’t afford the conservatives.

Had our conservative PPC knocking today. Desperate to make it about local issues. Desperate to challenge what I knew about the candidate most likely to beat him in tactical voting terms. Desperate to make me think the seat won’t make the difference. Unable to defend the last fourteen years.

How does Rishi define “wreck Britain”? I’m thinking give rights to the little people. Rishi thinks that would be terrible. And start to reduce NHS queues. Awful. Begin effective migration. Shocking! Improve access to justice. Why? Progress alignment with the EU. Heresy. Here’s hoping!

Ahh, the mail with their circulation of 124 and falling (or was that failing) are going to change the election. I mean, the could have changed their policies a decade ago. But let’s pull a discredited has-been off his sunlounger as it’s easier than thinking.
