What is the BBC's justification for maintaining this level of coverage of Reform now it has slipped into third place?

Under Restore, it will be your RIGHT to shoot in the face any old man in a flat cap found using the public footpath next to your farmhouse. Especially if he appears to be carrying a snake.

Very much agree with this analysis of #nffc season so far from Steve Battlemuch. PS love the old school blogging on Tumblr. Can't be many who are still using Tumblr like this.

Good on the Royal British Legion 👏🏾👏🏾 👏🏾

I mean it really is this

Useful if depressing 🧵 from the relentlessly patient and measured @sundersays

"They can start cutting people's faces up. They can stab someone. They can shoot someone." EXCLUSIVE: Our hidden cameras capture the leader of Turning Point UK organising a fake rally for a foreign government and helping arrange a murder-for-hire with loyalist paramilitaries.

New YouGov polling for UNISON shows the majority of people back more investment in public services. And they know how to pay for it: make the wealthiest, big corporations and banks pay their fair share. Add your name ✍️ 🔗 buff.ly/3gPMAN1 #WeShowUp

🚨 Public services need a bailout in the Budget. We're putting workers on a pedestal in Westminster to give them the recognition they deserve. They show up for us. It's time the government showed up for them. ✍️ buff.ly/grVRqVk #WeShowUp

This is fucked. Really bleak how entrenched this is becoming.

Alexei Sayle's Stuff (19th October 1989). A lot more work goes into the production of each episode of Stuff than you might expect.

During a debate held to discuss giving the RNLI the Freedom of the City, Portsmouth city councillors heard about the abuse that crew members had received in the city, including being confronted in pubs, yacht clubs & shops + two said their children had been bullied at school Reform UK opposed it.

Wait. Isn't that Allison Pearson who got two-year's worth of columns from the OUTRAGE of being merely questioned by police as a journalist? They seem to think that the UK is the USA, Farage is already President, so he can follow the example of their icon Trump and "prosecute" all their enemies.

Farage laughing at the manhandling of the female protestor at conference...norms are set by example.

Exclusive: Reform mayor Luke Campbell is under police investigation for allegedly cyberflashing a female member of staff Campbell, an Olympic gold boxer, is accused of having shown a a senior female officer four fully “naked and sexualised images” of himself observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

Producer: “Who can we get to represent the views of voters in struggling working class towns?” Researcher: “How about a London born privately educated banjo player who is the son of the billionaire who owns GB News?” Producer: “Perfect!”

One of the people in the ITV story has resigned as a councillor. Apparently he "will be undertaking intensive personal analysis to understand how these sentiments could have taken root..." I do hope he publishes the findings of his analysis www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midland...

Someone who complained of not seeing any white faces during a visit to Handsworth isn't really the best person to be claiming Farage is some kind of anti racist hero. Not least because if that were true he wouldn't have let Jenrick join Reform. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

How were they 'provoked'? Did the undercover reporter say to the Reform people, "I don't believe you are true believers. I think you are secret woke infiltrators" So they were provoked into responding with some racist, sexist and some incest comments to prove their commitment to the Reform cause.

Sarah Pochin on the Reform Party leadership: "They are so chauvinistic... they just exclude you if you are a woman."

I’m taking the Ted Lasso approach to the Arsenal game - #Believe #NFFC

Is it right for me to have 'legitmate concerns' the Reform UK has attracted a lot of racists? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Chris Mason has spent the last few days looking for a gotcha with Andy Burnham and his relationship as Greater Manchester mayor with Man City. Mason's peers in ITV have done an excellent, and brave, expose of Reform. The contrast speaks volumes.

More of this please

I guess that's cleared that up then. We best all just move on.

My teacher brother has just informed me that his primary school kids now refer to anything shit or old fashioned as "Brexit". Which has made my morning.

Manchester City cheated Premier League rules, the Commission found. Did it also cheat HMRC? We've examined the decision and leaked Mancini documents. We think City likely failed to pay £12m in tax. There should be a criminal investigation. Thread:

I am not joking when I say this. If you take the ingredients for your favourite recipe and just put them in a giant bowl and use a big spoon to shove it in your mouth, it is just as good as following a recipe.

Theatre assistants in Leeds are returning to the picket line next week. They perform clinical tasks and should be paid for them, but managers are refusing to return to negotiations. It'll be a continuous, indefinite strike unless trust bosses get back round the table. 👉 unsn.uk/LTHindefinit...
