So, Farage who’d previously failed 7 times to be an MP, decided that in Clacton he’d rely on his old Brexit friends - cheating (and racism) - to get him his win.
With millions now pouring into Reform, it’s beyond time to properly investigate this grubby little man

As a Brit, I’ll just say that Brexit was the single biggest self-own in our economic and political history. We were collectively conned by the evil version of Mr Toad (Farage), and the poshest malevolent clown to ever pratfall around 10 Downing Street (Johnson) and we’re paying for it every day.

Quick analysis of The Times today:
Wall to wall negative coverage of Labour’s budget. An editorial that tuts about lack of growth but takes no responsibility. And a double page ad to join Farage/Reform.
Absolutely no analysis on how rightwing ideology - including Brexit - has been utterly ruinous.

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

Zohran Mamdani has shown us a brilliant lesson in why you should always stand up to bullies. Nothing good can ever come from giving in to a bully, or kissing a bully’s arse. Starmer, take note.

For Shabana Mahmood to attack some of the most cruelly treated people in the world as having won a "golden ticket" because they manage to get to and claim asylum in Britain is unforgiveable.

Nothing mocks democracy like a president ordering red states to gerrymander while prosecuting a blue state for letting its voters decide.
