Given all the other recent Conservative defections he's accepted, "I've always thought Robert Jenrick was a fraud" reads more like a recommendation than a criticism

Letters to the Times on Jenrick’s defection to Reform.
They are very much not impressed. And make the point that switching parties without triggering a by-election is not democratic.
So he can shove his bullshit sense of ‘public duty’ where the sun don’t shine. Or take his choice to the voters.

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

Sums up how rubbish Badenoch is that she has been forced into a “You’re dumping me? I’m dumping you!” rather than just sacking and disbarring Jenrick over the many, many things that would have kept him out of any Tory Cabinet since 1968.

Of course, as Reform morphs into the failed, corrupt, nasty and useless Tory party, Farage won’t need to do a deal at all.
Voters will look from Tory to Reform and Reform to Tory; but it will be impossible to say which is which.

White House claims ‘acquisition of Greenland’ is purpose of working group – Europe live
Denmark’s foreign secretary has denied the assertion and since reiterated that discussion over territory is a red line.
After meeting with the US vice-president JD Vance and state secretary Marco Rubio on Wednesday, the Danish and Greenlandic foreign ministers announced a new diplomatic channel to discuss their “fundamental” disagreements over Greenland: namely, a working group with the US.
Well, it turns out the White House does not see it exactly in the same way. Continue reading...

Labour’s new deputy leader says party must pay more heed to its members
Exclusive: Lucy Powell, who was sacked as Commons leader by Starmer in September, says government should stop trying to ‘out-Reform Reform’
Labour’s new deputy leader, Lucy Powell, has said the government must listen to its members instead of being guided by a “narrow group of voices” as it battles to stave off electoral disaster in next May’s local elections.
Powell defeated the education secretary, Bridget Phillipson, in the deputy leadership contest, which concluded on Saturday. She said she had been given “a clear mandate that members want their voice to be heard at the top of the party”. Continue reading...

ICJ orders Israel to allow aid into Gaza and says blockade had been a breach
Court also found that Israel had a duty not to impede supply of aid by UN organisations including Unrwa
Israel must allow aid into Gaza, and its restrictions on doing so over the past two years have put it in breach of its obligations, the UN’s top court has found.
The stinging advisory opinion by the International Court of Justice in The Hague also found that Israel had a duty not to impede the supply of aid by UN organisations including the beleaguered UN Palestinian relief agency Unrwa, which has been in effect banned from the territory since January.
