Whilst I don’t believe defections are on the cards from the tories yet, I do think the Tory party might try to change leadership again, if it then results in a move further right, I think we might well be welcoming some new MP’s to the Lib Dem ranks. www.politicshome.com/news/article...

Looking at Sir Geoffrey Cox MP’s declaration of interests, he has to be working roughly 40% of his time as a barrister rather then as a MP maybe I should just call him “Sir 60%”.

Reform UK has uncovered the scandal of a “wasteful” £350m contract. Small problem: it’s not a contract. Or £350m. Or a scandal. Here’s how they got it completely wrong. 👇👇

For Badenoch I suspect it’s simply to pretend she can be just like Farage. As for Farage, well I won’t be surprised if it was about money, power and control, just like Brexit

goodlawproject.org/top-five-mps... Poor old Sir Geoff is having to struggle on living so close to the breadline, which is probably why he has had to spend so much time away from parliament earning a crust,

What does the Tories (Mel verses Eliz) Reform and Trump/ Musk have in common? Answer none of them are interested in serving people. Just interested in Power and control.

Enough, hate cannot be allowed to win. You cannot keep blaming everyone else for the shortcomings of the government, past and present. Stop listening to Liars who are only interested in themselves, in money, in power. If you only look after yourself who will look after you?

In the local elections Tory managed just 15% with Lib Dem’s getting 17% it is just a matter of time before this is reflected in polls. Then how long before labour are overtaken by the Lib Dem’s?

So Farage and the Tories are complaining about the deal with India, because it allows Indian workers not to pay national insurance for the first two years (making them cheaper to employ then a uk citizen) but when you are losing 4% of GDP every year due to Brexit. This is the consequences.

Yes because that’s the Tories job! ( Tories conveniently forget Brexit and particularly the impact on family farms).

Imagine paying a not insignificant amount of money for an employee to do very full time job. Then that employee telling you that they have another job which pay at least 5 times the amount you pay and they reckon is only taking up a day or so a week. Okay? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

This behaviour by Trump is self inflicted pain. He will try to bully his way out of this but it won’t be that simple. And even if we do a deal with the USA Brexit has limited are ability to recover our economy from the hit we will have to take to get a deal with the USA (chlorinated chicken anyone?)

This is thuggery from Trump and Vance, plain and simple. They are bullying the brave true patriot Zelensky into accepting a deal which effectively hands victory to Russia. Unless the UK and Europe step up, we are facing a betrayal of Ukraine.
