Call me crazy but I've got a sneaking feeling that putting the country in charge of a politician who likes to encourage people to publicly burn religious texts won't work out too well

This is something I’ve been thinking about watching the start of Liverpool’s season.

Liverpool go to work and Diogo Jota is not there. Why wouldn’t that affect them? | Max Rushden

We know so little about players’ personal feelings. It means everyone’s analysis of the game is fundamentally superficial

59 years ago, Seconds (1966) redefined identity and paranoia. Frankenheimer’s masterpiece still haunts.

Three weeks into the school run and my new radicalising thing is cars ever so gently rolling forward as my daughter scooters over the zebra crossing. What are you doing. Take your foot off the accelerator there’s a fucking four year old in front of you

Nathan Gill is no fringe politician.

He was the leader of the Reform Party and before that UKIP in Wales.

A Brexit Party MEP.

A friend and ally of Nigel Farage, who in 2016 called him:

"terrific," and "as honest as the day is long."

This is a MASSIVE story

Our politics and media have become viciously obsessed with immigration. Farage has made sure of it. And in that obsession, they’ve all lost sight of the people they target. Fellow human beings trying to live and belong somewhere.
Shame on everyone responsible for this daily inhumanity
(Letter,Times)

Reform's plan for a benefit clampdown
Sir, Regarding Reform's plan to ban foreigners from claiming benefits ("Farage visas would make it harder to settle in the UK", news, Sep 22;
"Time's Up", leading article, Sep 23), in my small company for the past ten years we have employed, on a yearly average, 32 eastern European people, two of them in senior management positions. They all pay British taxes and have had little or no unexplained absences to date. Sick leave for them is extremely low. As far as I am aware, none of them is claiming benefits for dependants. These diligent people provide compassionate care for their clients, living with them for a few weeks at a time. During the pandemic they were responsible for ensuring zero transmission of the virus to people in their care. I feel utterly ashamed that many of them will be reading about Nigel Farage's plan on their various social media platforms
this morning.
