Good to see unelected gobshite Zia Yusuf on the Laura Kuenssberg show. For a moment there I thought they might go for a week without representing a party with ONLY FIVE MPs!

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

Agreed. And while we're at it, Tories moaning about £500 to get a criminal migrant on a plane when they paid over £4K per head to get 3 people on a plane to Rawanda. And goodness knows what other "strange financial stuff" is yet to be uncovered!

Wow - those are quite phenomenal headlines given the details of the story.

Ahh look, he’s just a ‘nerdy’ guy. No harm done.

You need to scroll down to paragraph 13 of the Sky piece to find the full story!

Old Etonian, worked for think tanks in tufton street, speech writer for various conservative MPs. Parents are South African (IFYKYK). Why do people fall for these snake oil salesmen.

Honestly at some point you have to start doing psyops with these people:

Have Obama announce that he will seek a third term tomorrow. Then watch all the con law “scholars” and Fix News MELT DOWN trying to explain why he can’t but Trump can. (It’s like Newsom taking over his social media persona)
Q: One theory on how you might try to serve a 3rd term is that you could run at the vice president

TRUMP: Yeah, I'd be allowed to do that. But I would rule that out because it's too cute.

It keeps getting worse for the HMP Chelmsford authorities.

Kebatu went back there four or five times and attempted to hand himself in, knowing he would be deported. The authorities sent him away, telling him he had been released.

By "Labour haven't done anything", I assume Zack is trying to hide these Labour actions:

This government negotiated the deal, with the Turkish government, and it’s the first significant one for these jets since 2017. Also the article states that Turkey has been trying to purchase them since 2023. More importantly it secures 6,000 jobs in the UK.

Christopher Harborne is by far the largest donor to Nigel Farage he has donated £13.7m since 2019.

He lives in Thailand and owns QinetiQ defence company which makes Laser and AI weapons for the USA.

Nigel Farage is literally owned by the US Military Industrial Complex.

It’s just a real shame the @thetimes.com assistant political editor @geraldinescott.co.uk couldn’t be bothered to write a hit-job piece on #TwelveJobsNigel instead.

Farage: epic grifter
I’m glad you admitted your mistake, so your followers can see. I’m not happy with some of the things labour has done this last year and a half, but he is out there trying to get good deals for this country.
So the two other women panellist allowed him to speak, yet he feels the need to interrupt her. This happens all the time, men speaking over women. The dismissive way he states that advertising is over representing people of diverse cultures is appalling.

If you're watching advertisements on tv and counting the races of the people in them you're not only a massive racist - but you're sad as fuck.

Nothing on the BBC Radio news this morning. Nothing I could find on their website. This is an MP from the party whose lead in the opinion polls normally ensures them wall-to-wall coverage. She spouts racist nonsense for which even she feels obliged to apologise. What on earth are they playing at?
