Apparently, the term "Fish Disco" was coined by former Tory ministers. It's all very well joking about it, how about stopping it?

The only reason Gill stopped being the Reform UK leader in Wales was because he failed to win a seat in the 2021 Senedd election.

Zia Yusuf keeps trying to make this sound like this is ancient history, and Reform washed their hands of him, but nothing is further from the truth.

Nationalised Great British Rail freezing rail fares. Hasn't happened since the Tories privatised BR. The end of a failed model.

"Rail fares in England next year are to be frozen for the first time in 30 years, the government has announced. The freeze until March 2027".

The degree of Trump's self-interest & self-survival has really come to something when you find yourself agreeing with 'Jewish space lasers caused wildfires' conspiracy lady!

Sorry America, but in the UK we describe a good product as the "Rolls Royce of" such a product, not the "Westinghouse of" such a product.

Ah yes, collapsing the economy, your one area of expertise. Do tell us about the time you knocked £30bn off the stock market and trebled everyone's mortgage.

"a command and control approach, which was so vital in changing the [Labour] party, is now serving as a singular and destructive force."

Rumours that the BBC would win a defamation lawsuit from Trump if it chose to defend it in the Florida courts. It would be great if the BBC appeared as Pudsey Bear and insisted on being referred to as 'Aunty Pudsey' during cross examination! 😂

The CURRENT sitting MP for Clacton earns £511,000 as a presenter for GB News and took £281,000 as a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion.

So maybe sit this one out, you rancid herring.
A former Plaid Cymru Chief Executive is now being paid £190k a year as the BBC's Nations Director. This is living proof that the BBC is infected with left-wing bias right to the top-

This is a huge problem & it is an insult to the victims of violent crimes. The Southport murders & subsequent riots demonstrated that influential but malicious or stupid people spread lies online & faced no sanction or didn't correct their misinformation.

'there are clear signs that the audio of the Prime Minister in these clips is not genuine.' 'some words are pronounced unusually, such as £177 read as “one seventy seven” & April pronounced “Apri”, which suggests they are very likely to be AI-generated from misspellings'

Reform are hopeless. Supposed Captains of Industry, financial & managerial geniuses, and economic whiz-kids: they are in fact idiots who couldn't organise a p**s up in a brewery, much less run a country. Most of them are ex-Tories, which explains the hopelessness!
