I can't believe they didn't argue that the polling wasn't for 'the party' as Reform UK is actually a Private Limited Company and not a political party at all.

Rodri - "What we did, they cannot take out of us...It's something that is not paid by money". No my friend, it actually involved the large payments of ill gotten money. Ironically he may have never joined the club without those funds.

This is a point that is both: - generally too technical for most of the public to understand; and - easily confused by those who want to label asylum seekers as 'illegal' immigrants. The govt would do well to explain the distinction between asylum seeker and illegal immigrant more clearly.

I suppose it makes a change from the usual success story which involves the foolproof method of 'living at home and saving for a deposit whilst paying absolutely no rent'.

It's very cleary a co-ordinated campaign of misinformation and it is amazing the amount of people who will believe it (though they were happy to believe the official stats when claims for asylum were much higher).

John Holland @johnnetherlands.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

There seems to be some bizarre misinformation sweeping through the dark corners of social media. 1. That the Home Office counts boats and not people crossing (so bigger boats means lower numbers) 2. The government are now flying asylum seekers in by plane under the cover of night.

Could he defect back to the Tories offering some obviously fanciful explanation for the Reform blunder? Like he had been possessed by an alien body snatcher or that there was a credible threat to his safety confirmed by Essex Police.

There have been questions as to whether Arday was truthful in saying that he didn't learn to read or write until age 18. However, I could believe that true of Goodwin given some of his academic outputs.

Bills seem to be split equally but not equitably. If you're a sig lower earner than your partner and you are paying the same amount towards bills then that's a bad deal. You will be paying a much greater proportion of your salary towards the cost of living.

I still think he speaks a lot of sense but he also must realise that putting something like the above out to his networks unjustifiably and disproportionately increases pressure on the PM. The original post was not in response to concrete news, just whispers that Wes Streeting was planning a coup.

If that match taught us anything, it's that Danny Murphy should never be allowed on co-comms ever again. I'm sorry if that upsets fans of his estranged cat Bob.

Southgate got to two finals. Tuchel's contribution to the England team is poor squad selection and playing a back 5. Hardly world beating. Hopefully he's not around for Euro 2028.

Michael Olise or Antoine Semenyo to come in on the right wing for me. Possibly in a 4-2-5-1 formation.

Potentially unpopular opinion. Spain have been waaaay overhyped at this World Cup. They have played 3 of the worse teams in the tournament (in Uruguay, Saudi Arabia and Austria) and struggled to breakdown Cape Verde and Portugal. Just an average side with a very favourable draw.

....and when this is put to him by a real person who is likely impacted by the policy (on BBCQT or the like) he'll become completely non committal. Reform do it all the time. Talk big at the population level but no answer when it comes to individual nuance.

In this age of microscopic media scrutiny, I don't think there can be a future PM who won't be described as incompetent. The fact is that the vast majority of the people who reach No.10 (Johnson and Truss aside) are highly competent individuals. You're kidding yourself if you think otherwise.

24.7% - Arsenal’s possession average (24.7%) was the lowest by a team in a UEFA Champions League final on record (since 2003-04), as well as their lowest in any match under Mikel Arteta where they had 11 men on the pitch throughout. Reactive.

Mikel Arteta looks on after his Arsenal side fall to shootout defeat to PSG.
