Reform UK Nottinghamshire Council decided not to move offices to a newly built headquarters and to retain the old County Hall.

The previous administration had planned to sell it due to the high running and maintenance costs once the new building was completed.

Private Eye offers up an excellently scornful commentary on the relentless polling. It’s become ridiculous and has oversimplified our politics to dangerous levels of stupid and irresponsible.

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations

When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

The Brexit tide has turned

🗳️ Latest poll:
🔵 Remain: 52%
🔴 Leave: 29%
⚪️ Wouldn’t vote: 11%
⚪️ Don’t know: 8%

But if you remove the non-voters, real result is:

✅ Remain: 64%
❌ Leave: 36%

That’s nearly a 2:1 margin to rejoin.
Mandate gone.

Reform would rip that up. Irresponsible.
