Have you seen this: I wonder after their dismal showing at Holborn if Badenoch might come under pressure - from my experience it is usually after leaders have had an ovation at conference.

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

I am not surprised at this. The LibDems should be riding high and achieving the share of the vote that the Greens got in Holborn. They should be the preference for voters in Conservative areas who don't want to vote Labour and find the two 'Re's' repugnant.

Taking this to a conclusion, if the US military is threatened in any of its overseas locations will it withdraw?

I think it started with: (he just wasn't very good at it and she learned by his mistakes).

Will the Tory faithful cheer that the cost of new builds could reduce by £50,000, or realise that it will also reduce the value of the houses currently on the market, placing some 'nearly new' builds into negative equity?

I am not sure what a 'classic old school' Conservative is, but in 1945 the population, after 6 years of war and rationing was healthier, than it had been in the hungry, means tested 1930's of Baldwin and Chamberlain.

It looks as if the investigation into the £5 million gift to Farage is nearing a conclusion - will we have another by election?

Oops I got it wrong, it was only 105, I'm sorry for exagerating

I remember Farage having a go at the RNLI only to find it received more donations from the public.

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

Does this mean that Badenoch still thinks the local squire rallies his employees to go into battle? Does she think that the MOD is only part-time?

000

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

Is this a different John Healey who resigned months ago because he was upset at Reeves not committing to 3%? Did he ever ask the question of MOD why do France spend less but achieve more. Perhaps he should have asked about having more admirals than ships.

A man delusional about his own abilities/

... with flags produced in China, so very patriotic. These Raise the Colours heroes do seem to have questionable backgrounds:

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Didn't Healey resign from the Starmer Government because he was dissatisfied about Defence spending? Why do I think this was just a political ploy to put Burnham in No10 and oust Reeves?

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

I am pleased that Birmingham are trying to do something about this, it's not patriotism just overt racism.

Perhaps it isn't the first time that Corporate America has done such things:

But what this data doesn't show is the rise in lies by Reform🤣

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

Perhaps if No 1 condition was to apply we could have a recall petition and a by-election in Clacton

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

Whether this is true or not, I would have no trouble believing it:

In the 1950's Harold Macmillan who was Housing Minister built 300.000 houses in one year. We also need a complete inventory of housing in the UK to see how many houses are unoccupied with the option of taking them into public ownership.

When I first started work one of my colleagues was a woman who had built ships, she was a rivetter. I believe in Sheffield there is a statue to the women who made steel during the war under the threat of constant bombing because it was nearly impossible not to show lights.

Not only do we need to addresss what we can grow ourselves but also ensuring we have water available for irrigation. Then the thorny question arises about agricultural labour which used to be so reliant on workers from EU countries. We forgot the lessons learned in WW2 when foreign supply was hard.

Here are the councils controlled by Reform:

... and as crops fail, we haven't got enough fodder to feed ani🤣mals and the stand pipes stop giving water we will all have a drink of English wine and toast Dickie Tice

121

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

Which is all well and good but does not address anyone other than London having direct access. Isn't it time, for instance that there was a direct international station in the North?

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

Should, for whatever reason, a by election be held in Boston and Skegness, Dick Tice may find he is no longer an honourable member.

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

I don't know if you watched any of the Inquiry into the Post Office Horizon scandal. But what stood out to me was how poor the non-executive team led my Alice Perkin was and especially the civil servant who was the UK Govt.'s nominee. I don't think they have worked well in the case of the Post/

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

Far be it from me to prejudge, but perhaps Bunty needs to consider starting to bake cakes with files in them.

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

Reform with its finger on the pulse must have missed that 17 years ago:

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

This will no doubt impact on the cost of living as crops that provide food for people and animals are affected. What I can't understand, unless I have missed it, why we aren't cleaning/purifying and desalinating sea water and using this for agricultural and non-drinking.

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

Zach Polanski is letting down the work that previous leaders of the Green Party have done with this childish behaviour.

It is so good that Farage is so against the establishment.☺️

Didn't Trump, when he misguidedly followed Netanyahu, believe this would be over in a few days. He believed his own bullying rhetoric.

I wonder if Lord Bamford has settled the IRC claim?

Adam Bede @adambede.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

Oh for the days of the Test Card and some light music when nothing was happening rather than Keir Starmer disappearing into the Palace and BBC commentators filling the airwaves with vacuous dross.
