Guess how well BBC News is doing in the ‘You don’t have to report everything Reform says as the major headline’ challenge

I am confused. I thought when Josh Simons quit as an MP to call an unnecessary by-election it was a huge waste of taxpayer funds and an insult to voters?

The other parties should refuse to stand against him. Make him run on his own against the usual cast of comedy candidates.

Saying you're the "most physically attacked" MP when two MPs have been killed in the last decade is just horribly self-absorbed.

Sky saying this is statement filmed and shared by Reform, with no journalists present and no questions possible. So, a Party Political Broadcast.

Unbelievable. In a game he played zero minutes in, Jordan Henderson got himself a yellow card and then needed to be stretchered off after injuring himself falling over the advertising board while singing #Wonderwall #MexEng *Just after the 55 second mark

it's pretty funny that the World Cup has sensors that detect the ball's rotation, acceleration, and location every .002 seconds (not exaggerating, the actual tech specs of the sensor) but also the game gets to the end and the ref says "ok I think 9 more minutes ... maybe more if I feel like it"

Say what you like about the British press, but I find it reassuring that they spend months ripping apart a Labour PM for properly declaring some glasses and football tickets, then all but ignore someone who wants to be PM when he tries to cover up a £5 million gift.

How about this as some headlines: *Reform went backwards on last year *Results in line with their falling poll score *They underperformed their polls in Scotland *If this had been a General, they wouldn't have won a majority even when the govt is phenomenally unpopular Bit of a different story?
