Remember if you receive a flyer in post from reform with an sae, don't bin it, reply with your thoughts as it will cost them & take up time going through the postal returns.

Staying in a Jenrick-led Conservative party means essentially accepting all the moral compromises of being in a pact with Reform, but you don't even have a charismatic or likable leader.

I feel like we're moving closer to the inevitable day when Liz Truss announces she's defected to Reform, and Reform frantically spins that she absolutely has not

Poor old Gullis he hasn't been able time find gainful employment after being rejected by his constiuency and who the hell is Lia Nici. The Reform Party Ltd should change its name to the Reject Party Ltd.

The wheels are coming off at a local level every time someone looks into a bullying/racism/dereliction of duty/integrity/corruption allegation. There are multiple options for a pincer movement against Farage, and his supporters everywhere are such dirty fighters it can’t begin soon enough.
Remember: Farage wants a 2027 general election as their best chance of being in government.

Best route to that is to undermine the current government and get Starmer out - the call for a GE.

The more ministers he loses the higher that chance.

Late to the #InsideNo9 party and it’s so far out of my comfort zone I’m only shocked I didn’t hide behind the sofa watching ‘Tom & Gerri’. Subtly terrifying.

Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.

Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph

Because this does NOT add up!

No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…

70% of the additional spending from removing the two-child limit will go to families who are in work. This is targeting support for low-income working households who are being priced out of a decent standard of living despite doing everything asked of them.

I'm hearing criticisms of the end to the two child limit, because it was done just to mollify Labour backbenchers, at a cost of £billions.

I remember another govt delivering a referendum on EU membership, just to mollify restive backbenchers. That's costing way, way more... A little perspective?

I have a connection - my mum and his daughter have been friends since childhood. I knew lots of the stories but had never seen a picture - what a man! An inspirational educator to boot.
It’s the 111th anniversary today of the birth of Harry Rée, who was a teacher and conscientious objector when the Second World War broke out, and by the time it ended, when he was 31, had invented ‘blackmail sabotage’ and got a DSO, an OBE, a Croix de Guerre, and a Medaille de la Resistance
