Absolutely right. I also sense a real blossoming on here in recent weeks.

“Welcome to the BBC” “Reform UK” “Reform UK” “Reform UK” “Reform UK” “Reform UK” “Reform UK” “Reform UK” “Reform UK” “Reform UK” “Reform UK” “Why Reform are the Hamilton by-election winners despite coming third” “Reform UK” “Reform UK” “Reform UK” “We Love Nige ♥️”

I remember the good old days when Secretaries of Defense didn’t insert themselves unsolicited into domestic politics on a daily basis. Not what the job is supposed to be about.

The situation seems to be escalating. Please be safe out there if you are protesting today or next week. Don’t give ICE or the maggats the upper hand or an excuse to call Martial law. #Pinks ktla.com/news/local-n...

Final results in the San Antonio Mayoral Election: Gina Ortiz Jones (D)- 54.3% Rolando Pablos (R)- 45.7% Despite Pablos trying to attack Ortiz Jones for not being sufficiently Hispanic, Ortiz Jones has kept Democratic control of Texas's 2nd biggest city.

The protesters, in Paramount today, were able to stop ICE from taking people at HomeDepot. They were pelted wiyh rocks as they fled.

If you agree, please share!

We could have had her, America.

Big point that is being missed: without the insurrection act, the activated Guard troops are now federal army and cannot Do law enforcement. Period

The only way to get BBC to replace Kuensberg is to stop watching her. Boycott her show. Not for a week but forever.

He's right, you know?

Just look at that headline and the article only just rows it back slightly No mention either of the annual payment she gets as former PM (£115k) which for most people would mean they don't have to work again As the scream of the privileged goes, this is up there

It's really very blatant and in the realms of propaganda now

Multi-millionaire Jeremy Hunt on Laura Kuenssberg arguing multi-millionaires shouldn’t be taxed more… Quelle surprise

God knows what the state of America will be when the Trump era ends. The UK needs to build closer links to our friends in Europe ASAP.

A local miller is found as the victim of the pure sporting capability of an Aston Martin V12 Vantage S. Suspicion falls on Bushygap’s vicar’s son, newly returned from university and full of reformist ideas, frightened that the rise of artificial intelligence might threaten a reboot of Blake’s 7.

Hello, former newspaper editor here. You'd have to be astoundingly stupid and incompetent to have printed this story. Unfortunately that describes the majority of the Telegraph's leadership.

Reform Party management has the feel of the control room at Springfield Nuclear Power Station with Homer Simpson in charge. If it functions correctly, it's purely by chance.

Essentially they were tricked into publishing that ludicrous story

The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer. Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer. We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is. It will never reach you.

Labour overturned a 4,500 SNP majority in Hamilton and the BBC spun this as somehow a victory for Reform. The BBC News department is not fit for public service.

So tell me, what re-attracted you to the millionaire Zia Yusuf?

Breaking News 🗞️ Former Reform UK chairman Zia Yusuf manages just two days of standing by his morals before finding some new ones and rejoining Nigel Farage’s party in a different role, heading up their ‘DOGE’ department because that’s absolutely normal, right? Get some self respect ffs

Reform UK councils in ‘shambles’ as newly elected councillors fail to show up www.independent.co.uk/bulletin/new...

The Big Fucked Up Bill, is NOT a spending bill. It’s a government restructuring bill, that consolidates power in the executive, defunds critical services to the point of absurdity, removes the power of our courts to enforce the law and dramatically curtails voting rights. It’s Project 2025

Your Guest Editor today for #r4today is Nigel Farage.

Putin is really going for the all-time low. He releases this statement. " Russia's defence ministry said the strikes were in response to "terrorist acts by the Kyiv regime", adding that it had targeted military sites." While Putin is currently attacking civilian cities. Women and children! BBC

Of all Trump's loathsome characteristics, his vulgarity is near the top of the list. He may have acquired qualifications somehow but he's uneducated, crude and totally without any cultural hinterland.

A self-described “fair and balanced citizen” is found guillotined. Suspicion falls on White Ox Mead’s Audi driver, obsessed that a lack of concern for Midsomer’s high murder rate might threaten the closure of the pork futures warehouse.

A former journalist is found tortured to death with Beethoven’s 9th Symphony (Op. 125). Suspicion falls on Midsomer Chettham’s football fans, angry that the old cairn might threaten a farting controversy at the darts competition.

Tommy Robinson and pals went out for lunch at the very pricy Hawksmoor yesterday... sat down... ordered... and then got kicked out.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I knew the breakup was going to be messy.

In amongst all the excitement I fear many have missed this outstanding bit of trolling by Friedrich Merz. The Chancellor gifted Trump a gilded framed copy of his grandfather’s German birth certificate... reminding Americans that Trump is both the child and grandchild of migrants.

Wait... is this the best meme ever made?

Seems like an appropriate time to repost this

Vote- Impeach- Convict the Rapist Criminal.

I regret to inform you that ackman is at it again

The tactic for Labour should be simple. Govern as a Labour Party. Don’t try to take Reform’s place, or Reform’s voters. Let Reform implode.

The reason I’m so happy today isn’t the winning of Hamilton per se, it’s not the demise of Reform either. It’s that the fecking media have lost their crusade to bring down Labour. And there’s nothing they can do about it.

You know what to do!

💯 this

Piers Morgan why has it taken you 20 months to recognise Genocide? You need to condemn Israel as you demanded everyone else condemn Hamas.

The #r4today interview with Mel Stride follows the usual path. Every problem between 2010 and 2024 was the fault of the previous Labour government Every problem in 2025 is the fault of the current Labour government.

If Elon Musk wakes up and stops pointlessly moaning on Twitter he will realize he has more than enough money to buy a few Senators and cripple Donald Trump from being able to do anything.
