For sure, the #ClactonCuckoo’s party is as reliable as the snake oil salesman who leads it. The big question - why is Starmer stupid enough to mimic their puerile, disgraceful rhetoric in his policies?
Reform told you reducing council tax was easy. They just had to slash Woke policies, and a billion or two would be saved. They wouldn't even need to close care services.
They promise you that.
And then every single Reform-led council cut care services and increased council tax.

Any deal with clown fascists has got to be bad..
“Starmer now ranks alongside Johnson for incompetence. He may not have challenged Truss as yet. But, give him time.” Who is advising Starmer?
The US trade deal is a bad deal, and it has the potential to get worse www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/05... Someone should tell Starmer that sometimes (by which I mean usually, or even always) no deal is better than a bad deal, because that is what he's got with the USA.

One thing that gets my goat is that the media can cover Farage ad nauseum, citing the polling support for relevance and popularity, but god forbid it gives a fraction of that coverage to a fact-based debate about how Brexit just ain't working, no matter how much glitter is sprinkled on the turd.

The Last Hospitals in Gaza

Easter under siege — Gaza starvation and Europe’s moral reckoning
What resurrection is possible in a land where children die of hunger before their first breath? What redemption is there when the wombs that carried life are cut off from food, medicine, and water by siege and design? The truth is stark: this Easter unfolded in the shadow of genocide, writes the Palestinian ambassador to the EU, Amal Jadou Shakaa.
