Hard to believe that none of the Reform MPs turned up for the debate on Russian interference in our politics. Maybe they were visiting their former Kremlin talking points Welsh leader Nathan Gill in prison? Or en route to their next BBC interview to act as commentators on why Starmer should go?

Hold the Line - Tell Your Labour MP to Stand Firm
Email your Labour MP to support stable government. In a world where Trump tears up international rules and Reform waits in the wings, Britain cannot afford political paralysis.

Reform unveiled their latest Conservative recruit Nadhim Zahawi - unfortunately he forgot to delete his old tweets accusing Farage of racism...

His deals aren't worth the paper they're printed on but world leaders have little choice but to pursue them. Another example of how completely he has destroyed the network of obligation that holds everything together.

Having Johnson & Cummings in Downing Street when Covid struck was, just like Brexit, an entirely avoidable disaster caused largely by utterly appalling journalism. And now exactly the same clowns, arses & bigots with bylines are rolling out the red carpet for Farage.

What hell is going on in the US when its president can call for the arrest & execution of political opponents! Trump needs to be removed as president asap!
The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution.

This year, Labour increased the minimum wage for all workers at well above inflation.
But they increased it even MORE for younger workers.
They aim to get the rates the same for all ages.
But Reform want the opposite - to reduce the minimum wage for younger people.
Support Labour. Oppose Reform.

Nigel Farage should tell the people of #Caerphilly about how he wants to abolish the Senedd.
Actually, no need, we have a video of him saying it.

I have always loved this clip of Sly and the Family Stone's medley on Ed Sullivan. Simply because Ed's strait laced audience cannot resist the enthusiasm of Sly and the band.
What made Sly Stone good,was not only his enthusiasm, but his energy and always thinking what was best for the greater good.
