First time in history, an oil crisis isn’t strengthening the system—it’s accelerating the exit 1973, 1979, 2008… every shock reinforced oil This time? We’ve got an off-ramp: EVs, solar, batteries Crisis → electrify → less oil The system doesn’t recover… it gets replaced #Bettrification

Just hours into Offord getting announced as Reform’s Scottish leader and the party are already emulating their American idols. Manhandling journalists, limiting scrutiny and barely giving a single direct answer to any questions- it’s all classic, Trumpian behaviour.
Offord's Reform are already emulating their American idols.

Screenshot of ITV Politics tweet reading:

'Please, you don't have to have your hand on me'

Watch the moment ITV News' Peter Smith was grabbed by a Reform UK staffer after being told to move on from his line of questioning while interviewing the party's new Scottish leader, Malcolm Offord

Richard Roper coming back from the dead in #TheNightManager took me straight back to Harry Lime coming back from the dead in #TheThirdMan . Is the writing in Series 2 more influenced by Graham Greene than by John le Carré?

"My most vivid memories of my school life is Farage repeatedly coming up to me, knowing that I was Jewish, saying 'Hitler was right' and 'gas em' and that was frequently followed by imitating the sound of escaping gas." Peter Ettedgui, ex classmate of Reform UK Leader Nigel Farage.

Today’s Caerphilly specific poll shows clearly that unless progressive voters unite with Plaid Cymru, Reform will win. Greens, Lib Dems and disillusioned Labour supporters - by uniting, we can stop Reform’s division taking root in Wales and deliver positive change 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
