@bbc-politics.bsky.social Surprised to see Reform representatives appear on Politics Live twice in one week given the party has only 5 MPs.

Our politics has become deeply unserious. Flags and gimmicks and stupid video clips and social media clickbait and lies. With very little serious challenge to counter the nonsense and the dishonesty. The consequences for our country and our democracy are dire. www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/robert-jen...
Extract from article:

This gamification of reality, in which politicians are actively incentivised to break rules and tell lies, so long as it gets them attention, headlines and viral views, directly leads to the promotion and endurance of the sort of outright charlatans and liars that we have seen so much of in recent years.
This world view led directly to the rise of Boris Johnson in the past and it is leading directly to the rise of Nigel Farage now. And while Jenrick may seem like a mere minnow compared to the sharks he swims amongst, that should not blind us to the real dangers that would come from allowing somebody like him rise to such a prominent position at the heart of our national life.

Reform have 5 MPs. In the past three days I have seen their representatives on TV or heard them on the radio 7 times. Ed Davey (72 MPs) or other Lib Dems - zero times. Confused.

Socialism is what they called public power.  Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Lot of fuss about the Government stepping in to intervene with the steel industry. Don’t remember the same level of kerfuffle when they stepped in with the banks.

The current approach to build more houses simply isn't working. We must be given the tools to manage our own affairs, and to stop accepting Wales' position as a quaint, welcoming-at-all-costs overspill and retirement village✍️Stephen Price wp.me/p8Mk4U-X7F

Water 2020 - £402.55 Water 2025 - £953.71 Hurrah for the cheaper more efficient privatised water industry promised by Thatcherism. Trebbles all round for Hafren Dyfyrdwy (basically Severn Trent) sharehoders.
