Trump’s humiliation should worry Farage, but it would be foolish to think the populist threat is over bit.ly/4iEIuyv

This may be the most damning statement ever uttered by a Labour minister. It's so revealing of the attitude of a government that thinks that employers are a class that don't work for their profits but somehow exploit others for them - rather than understanding the nature of small and medium-sized businesses and how bloody hard most employers work to create wealth and employment.
'I don't think employers are working people.'
@CamillaTominey grills Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Emma Reynolds MP, over whether Labour has breached its manifesto pledge in the Budget.

Hislop is right. Nor is this unnamed celebrity the only one using the threat of suicide as a means to suppress legitimate reporting.
Celebrity ‘suicide’ injunction could open floodgates, warns Ian Hislop

Badenoch: 'The Prime Minister came in promising that he would "reverse 40 years of neoliberalism". Instead we got 4p off gherkins'

Standing charges "removed" (for gas only, not electricity).
Instead, the cost will be added to unit costs.
Who uses most gas? The elderly and young families.
Thanks, Labour. For nothing.

Now that their full documentary has aired – after a week of drip-feeding extracts – we can safely say it is a damp squib.
To be clear, it does show a few Reform councillors and activists making some appalling comments – racist, misogynistic, you name it.
But absolutely any political party, organisation or business subjected to a year-long fly-on-the-wall sting, with every possible conversation recorded and attempts to coax as much incriminating language out of people as possible, would reveal some disgusting language and viewpoints.

Labour can find billions for welfare, but nothing for Britain’s defence. Their priorities are completely wrong.

Speaking as a woman and a member of the Church of England, I find it infuriating that the first female Archbishop of Canterbury has turned out to be so spectacularly useless.

Surely this issue is easily resolved. Have Delo and Harborne been paying UK tax. If, as Reform claim, they are UK nationals who have been living in the UK since March 2025.

Reform are about to learn the lesson of the law of diminishing returns.
In 2020, Michael Bloomberg spent $1 billion employing 2,400 staff and saturating coverage on his Presidential campaign. It came to nothing.
Money is an accelerant, not a cure. If the fundamentals are good, it improves things. If they’re bad, things will get a whole lot worse.
You can buy staff and advertising, but you can’t buy judgement or integrity.
Sometimes a bigger cheque just means you make more of the same mistakes.
The Conservatives are up for the fight.
We are raising millions, attracting new donors and winning back old ones because people can see what is coming.
Britain does not need another protest party. It needs common sense, a serious plan and a party capable of bringing the country together.
That is who we are.
And it is what Reform will never be.

🚨 BREAKING: Andy Burnham suggests he won't cut benefits to pay for defence spending
"National security cannot come at the expense of social security"

"Where Britain needs leadership, we have vibes.
"Burnham said he appointed the Chancellor because he cares about defence, but he won’t fund it.
"Other countries are making claims over our sovereign territory. They smell weakness.
"He's pretending he's the change candidate. But he's failing to cut welfare. Paying to hand over our sovereign territory. Not funding defence.
"But on the issues that really matter, isn't he just continuity Keir?"

Happy Rosh Hashanah (on Friday), @Ed_Miliband. I'm sure all your Muslim supporters will be delighted with this act of self-serving stupidity.
Upset our relationships with Israel and the USA: Appease Hamas.
All to save votes from switching to the Greens.

Our prime Minister’s first visit abroad and he is dressed like he is off to the pub. For goodness sake Burnham, at least look the part, show some respect and don’t prove you are clueless!
