Soon the public will wake up to the fact that it is main stream media fuelling #Reform popularity … it is NOT the support of the electorate.. Reform is losing EVERY local election and now even the MSM will have to dilute its obsession
This is the lowest support for Reform in a YouGov poll since April
Westminster Voting Intention:
RFM: 25% (-2)
LAB: 19% (=)
CON: 18% (+1)
GRN: 16% (-1)
LDM: 15% (+2)
SNP: 3% (=)

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

This … 100% 👏
There are three things Rachel Reeves should bear in mind tomorrow: obscene wealth doesn't 'trickle down', tax cuts don't 'pay for themselves' and the private sector isn't 'more efficient'

The US needs to be removed from any and all negotiations involving Ukraine. Under Trump it is a proxy of Russia. World leaders, especially Europeans, need to regain independence of their national defence.

Is Britain in the grip of a far right takeover ?
Nope.
The far right, the fascists, the racists … they were always there , but in the past we had enough decent people to fight back and challenge what they were saying out loud.
