If Farage lays a wreath and there are no TV cameras there to see him, would he bother laying the wreath at all?

Since the BBC and Laura K like to parade Refrom all over the TV ‘because they are popular in the polls’ then why wasn’t Count Binface on this Sunday? Two-tier BBC…

@colder_sarcasm So it’s a buy-election? 🙄

Showing her true blue colours, Fiona Bruce questions @EmilyThornberry about holding by-elections every time an MP defects to another party, by claiming Labour didn’t ask when conservatives defected to labour… This has only happened THREE times! #bbcqt

Another Question Time, and another Brucey Bonus: “nice to Zia, to Zia nice…” Makes you wonder if they really are “all in it together” to get a right-wing leader into government! 😡

One of the first things Burnham must do ad PM is tackle online misinformation. It’s destroying our democracy.

Misinformation about Andy Burnham's wife is now the most viral political story in the UK. How does a rumour that started in a local Facebook group in January 2022 become national misinformation? Here's the anatomy of an online rumour.

Farage on #BBCBreakfast: “If Andy Burnham becomes PM we need a General Election, no mandate!” Sally Nugent: “Do your MPs who defected from the Tories have a mandate?” Watch the chancer’s face as his own logic gets rammed straight back down his throat. Pure gold. This is the exact line every interviewer should use on him from now on.😂😂😂 RT if Sally Nugent deserves a medal 👇👇👇👇

@davidyelland AaaS: Anger as a Service!

I still can’t believe that the media spent so much time on the Green Party when Reform candidates were out here saying things like this. Anti Black racism is so normalised in this country.

Ask yourself why you didn’t hear about these Reform candidates before the election but you did hear about lots of Green candidates.

Reform have done their usual trick and shopped for candidates on Temu. If your councillor resigns, you have 14 working days to send a letter triggering a by-election. 10 such letters prevents co-option (stopping sitting councillors choosing who is appointed)

Polling guru Curtice: Everything started with school playground banter in the 1960s. Sixty years later, those lads ended up voting Reform.

Stop calling reform a new party. It was ukip. It was the brexit party. It is now reform. It isn't a new party it's a new logo. It embarrassing to pretend anything else. Foreign funded Farage has been the puppet for foreign billionaires in British politics for decades.

Gordon Brown has dedicated his life to fighting child poverty. Reform UK’s big policy: pennies off pints, at the cost of pushing thousands of children into poverty. Who’s the sick joke?

Gordon Brown sold 395 tonnes of our gold reserves at the bottom of the market, and - stupidly - told the market in advance. Gold has since risen 1500% and the gold he sold would be worth £40 billion more today. Now Starmer brings him back as his Finance Envoy. A sick joke

It only worked because the media let it work. You could have destroyed him with this, highlighted his avoidance and kept the scrutiny up.

Avoiding interviews in the week before polling day but after the £5 million “gift” had been exposed worked well for Reform as a media handling strategy, but the questions will now keep coming.

It would have been nice for the media to have asked all these candidate-related questions of Reform *before* the elections, but they were far too focused on the Greens of course.

If we had a proper media, Reform would be finished. The BBC has played a massive role in legitimising a re-hashed National Front. #Election

Low earners to pay council tax in Durham as Reform UK’s changes approved. Reform UK Durham Leader, Andrew Husband and Deputy, Darren Grimes both defended the plan to “squeeze money out of somebody who doesn't have any." bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@JMPSimor What's screwed up is that racist white supremacists like @SarahForRuncorn are allowed to be Reform MPs. What does it say about Nigel Farage?
