Apparently, Gyles Brandreth was one of Jeffrey Archer's best friends. Why doesn't that surprise me? 🙄

Imagine being Kemi Badenoch and your job is to convince the electorate that 14 years of Tory chaos somehow didn't happen. Having to sell the idea that Brexit was a success and that environmental policies are woke nonsense. And having to believe that we will give them another chance.. 🤣🤣

A BBC reporter just referred to the triple lock as "quite generous". Is it up to the BBC to take a position on a Govt policy?

Some people are disappointed that only two people have stepped down from ReformUK following the Channel 4 revelations of last night. But have some compassion; if the party was to remove all the crooks, there wouldn't be anybody left..

I hate this country's obsession with Harry and Megan. What's their crime exactly? What have they done that is so offensive? Why is a prince who married a woman of colour a bigger embarrassment to the UK than a prince who sexually abused underage girls?

I can't believe the BBC gave the all-important co-commentating slot (men's singles final) to Andre Agassi. Great player but a dull voice and monotonous delivery.

Jens Giles @jens34.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

Farage tries to spin a narrative that he knows is false (when have we seen this before...?). The people of Clacton are not casting a verdict on his guilt or innocence even though he makes it sound as if they are. A by-election is meaningless. Assuming he wins, he can then still be suspended.

Coming from a country founded on mass immigration, J.D. Vance's comments rival even Donald Trump's on the ignorance and stupidity scales. Vance (or frankly anybody) out-Trumping Trump is not something I had expected to see anytime soon...

When Angela Rayner underpaid £40,000 in stamp duty, Richard Tice said it was "morally completely indefensible” and she should resign if she had “any moral decency”. Now we learn he set up four shell companies that let him avoid paying £100,000 he owed in tax and to then transfer the cash to Reform

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

In a way, it would've been better if Trump had committed to take Greenland by force, only to be defied by his military, refusing to follow his (illegal) orders. It would've undermined Trump's authority. A humiliation that he might not have been able to come back from.

There are more than 200 republicans in the House of Reps. Are they all fine with what's happening? Surely there must be some who are deeply uncomfortable with the moral decline of the current Govt? Why don't we hear from them? If anything is going to change, it's going to have to come from them!
