Three weeks without a Reform representative on Laura Kuenssberg! Anyone would think we were avoiding questions about election fraud, MEPs taking Russian bribes, me being a racist bully at school, Reform officials calling LBGT people nonces or my dodgy house purchase.

Ill-intentioned speak, you say?
Sen. Ashley Moody seems EXTREMELY beatable to me next year in Florida. She really struggles on TV (as you can see in this clip) or to speak coherently in public in general.

💔 A European Parliament interpreter could not hold back tears during the speech of 11-year-old Roman Oleksiv from Lviv.
The boy survived a missile strike on Vinnytsia on July 14, 2022, which killed his mother - it was the last time he saw her alive.
