All these Reform defections are short term gains which undermine their core selling point - which is change.
Why would the country elect a party full of all the same washed-up, scandal-hit former Tory ministers they just kicked out of office?
Opens the space for both a Labour and Tory recovery

Strange isn't it... the people who actually live in London overwhelmingly think it's safe.... almost like everyone else is falling for a lie
I wonder what Londoners know that the rest of the country don’t?

Any Westerner rooting for the Iranian regime to succeed in repressing its people to remain in power is in no way on the side of freedom, progress, or equality.

Some really disturbing videos making the rounds, so it’s a good idea to make sure videos aren’t playing automatically if you don’t want to see them.
Go Settings > Content & Media, and make sure Autoplay is turned off.

on the one hand, it's the right thing to do, but also on the other, it would annoy the most irritating, obnoxious, awful people on the planet. So it's a tough one

European political scientists are blue in the face from constantly pointing out that accommodating the far right does not help centre-left parties win, and contributes to the rise of far-right parties. There's a mountain of data to support that.
But no, the galaxy-brained strategists must be right.

The meeting was a disaster for everyone except two people. Trump got his photo op and his ego boost.
Putin got his photo op, whitewashing of war crimes and no sanctions.
No one in Ukraine, Europe or the United States benefited in any way.

Kingsmill owner agrees to buy Hovis in deal to create UK’s biggest bread brand
Jobs expected to go if competition watchdog approves takeover by Associated British Foods
The owner of Kingsmill has agreed to buy its rival Hovis in a deal that would create the UK’s biggest bread brand if the competition regulator approves it, but also put jobs at risk.
