The Labour message in 2029 needs to be: "Look it's been tough, we get that, but things are now improving. Farage and the Tories will only deliver more chaos and division - just look at what they are proposing." If Labour cannot credibly say that, Labour loses and the nationalist right takes over.

One reason I feel like I'm going mad is, even if Musk did immediately halt Grok and issue a grovelling apology - rather than PAYWALLING IT - he should *still* be prosecuted and his website banned. Very obviously! You don't get out of CSAM charges by just stopping. AND HE STILL HASN'T STOPPED.

Delusional. It’s not freedom of speech when the platform is controlled by a far right lunatic, operating a biased algorithm, populated by huge numbers of bots, all competing to suppress any liberal counter narrative. It’s just feeding a monster they’re too afraid to regulate or hold to account.

A deeply stupid and irresponsible statement from Farage. As per.
The fact is that Farage is on the wrong side. He always has been and always will be. He’s a wildly corrupt, traitorous little turd. Not sure how any voters are still managing to convince themselves otherwise.

A Reform government will be very, very unpopular within weeks of taking office. Will make Starmer look like a rock star in comparison. But it will be too late then. They will have the power and the damage will be done. Nothing is more important than stopping them at the next GE.
It is an oncoming catastrophe:
No ECHR
Mass deportations
Net zero abandoned
Free speech in universities abolished
No broadcast impartiality laws
The BBC sold off
Death penalty reintroduced
Cold war with the EU
End of judicial independence
All this - and more - is being very clearly signalled.

This is exactly right and applies to climate as well as immigration policy. There’s a real chance the next UK government could deny climate science, repeal the Climate Change Act, quit the Paris Agreement, axe all clean energy and efficiency policies, and deliver coal mining and fracking projects.

New Labour advertising strategist Chris Powell says Reform are threat to democracy and urgent plan must ‘wage and win the daily war for attention’
*
What is Keir Starmer doing to push back the populists? Not nearly enough. We have a plan to take them on
Keir Starmer does not have enough of a plan to defeat the “existential threat” that populism poses to UK democracy and should undertake a “fundamental reset”, New Labour’s former advertising strategist Sir Chris Powell has warned.
Powell, who is the brother of Jonathan Powell, Starmer’s national security adviser, warned that there were just three years to stop the “new and terrifying threat” of populists, suggesting Reform UK could represent a danger to democracy and national institutions. Continue reading...
