£450 a flag spent by Reform councils! No wonder they’ve had to put up council tax. Just one of the facts I learned in this week’s @thetrawl.bsky.social (also - I’m backing @jemmaforte.bsky.social and @marina-purkiss.bsky.social for the new presenters of Strictly).

Nobody had even heard of Katie Lam outside of Westminster until about two weeks ago.
Literally all it takes to be considered "brilliant" and a "rising star" on the right of British politics now is just a willingness to say something slightly more racist than all of your competitors

Secondly you can’t wang on about language you don’t like AND parade Lucy Connolly like a mascot.
Make your mind up.

I don’t remember there ever being as many constant ruddy polls about who would win an election so long before an election is even vaguely due?
