Maybe party decisions should not be made to suit the personal ambitions of a guy who had a chance to return to parliament two years ago but chose not to and has suddenly changed his mind now the top job is in play? Maybe that guy isn’t worth spending £££ and risking a major by-election over?

I keep seeing people on the left talking as if Reform are a shoo-in for the next government, and I beg you, please don't do that. If we on the left talk about them as if their victory is inevitable, it will become inevitable. Every time we talk about a Reform government, we legitimise that idea...

Video: Videos Contradict Trump Administration Account of ICE Shooting in Minneapolis
An analysis of footage from three camera angles shows that the motorist was driving away from — not toward — a federal officer when he opened fire.

You have to admit though, Farage's 'I'm an open racist who spouts hate for his own country while taking backhanders from grifters, foreign agitators and a child porn producer' strategy has worked wonders for him so far.

I'd like to think 2026 is the year populism falls apart in both Britain and America.
Over here, there are early signs that the process of populist radicalisation (and ever greater stupidity) is becoming too much for some of them and lines are being drawn.

Shocked by the awful death of Rob Reiner. I spoke with him for over an hour last night. We talked about his work and his plans for the future. I always enjoyed his company. We met at his Dad's in 1975. Last thing he said to me was "See you next year.." Such a terrible end. Such a sweet man.

I quit a large multinational as my manager was terrible. He gave me a rush project in my last fortnight, so I decided to write in in FORTRAN 77 (an approved language at the time). No-one else in our team knew it, so it had to be rewritten delaying the project. Boss got no bonus.
