Some 0200 hours from yesterday morning. Those sneaky SAS were in, charges set and detonated before I could mount any defence. The Fuhrer will be furious. #0200hours

Hard to believe that none of the Reform MPs turned up for the debate on Russian interference in our politics. Maybe they were visiting their former Kremlin talking points Welsh leader Nathan Gill in prison? Or en route to their next BBC interview to act as commentators on why Starmer should go?

Yesterday's Silver Bayonet games. The next part of the Albion campaign where a terrifying Lindworm appeared. Then a festive outing to destroy a gingerbread village. Great fun as always with great friends. #silverbayonet

Second scenario from the Britain campaign of Silver Bayonet. My Russians were patient and were rewarded by taking home the 'bones of Albion' after Chickov earnt his stripes taking out three terrifying ghost knights. #silverbayonet

Played the first scenario in the Britain expansion of Silver Bayonet this afternoon. 3 of us and it was immense fun. I really rate this expansion so far and can't wait to play the other 6 scenarios. #silverbayonet

This is a lie. There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years. But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Clayton “MP” Fartrage is skipping the return to parliament next week to fly to the USA. If he were a kid skipping the start of the school year there would be fines and sanctions flying around. No doubt he’ll be bad-mouthing the UK again although he doesn’t need to leave the country to do that.

Reform has lost 11 councillors and 2 MPs in a matter of months… and when I say ‘lost’ I mean, they’ve quit following rows, impropriety or inability to do their jobs. So, if Brexit weren’t proof enough, then this barrelling shitshow should confirm forever that they should be nowhere near govt.

Nigel Farage and his Reform MPs just voted to let foreign governments buy up our British newspapers. I guess it’s hardly a surprise since these fake patriots outsource all their policies to Trump’s White House and Putin’s Kremlin.

Good point from the young man in the #bbcqt audience… ‘Why can I ban myself off gambling apps but I can’t ban myself off short form video apps? They’re both addictive.’ (I’m particularly annoyed YouTube has stopped me switching auto play off).

Far-right MP Rupert Lowe missed the grooming gangs debate in Parliament today, to have an appointment with the police to try and get his (seized) guns back

Frustratingly, I won't be in Parliament today for the national inquiry statement as I have the police coming to my home to conduct checks in order for my guns to be returned.

All following false allegations from Zia Yusuf and Lee Anderson.

It is irritating beyond belief.
Ben Obese-Jecty MP
@BenObeseJecty
Sorry, you’re saying getting your shotguns back is more important than being in Parliament to hold the Government to account?

Take your job seriously Rupert.
