Sagal Abdi-Wali came to the UK aged 7 having fled the war in Somalia with her family. She has thrived. Leader of Camden council and now the MP for Holborn and St Pancras. A narrative that runs counter to all we are told about refugees. Congratulations www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Steve Reed on 25 March explaining that the £100k cap on donations "will therefore apply retrospectively, so it includes all donations from overseas electors received from today". Yes, but how are people who never bother going to Parliament supposed to know that?

So ... how many Tory MPs who voted for Kemi Badenoch as Tory leader did so as a result of 'public support' in polls which now turn out to have been faked? And how complicit is she in rigging the Leadership Contest?

It's nonsense to suggest that people who support Brexit and Reform are motivated by racism. And if you don't believe me, check out this perfectly reasonable tweet by prominent Reform member and former mayoral candidate, Arron Banks.

I just think that risking your life at a moment's notice to save people you've never met in exchange for no money is a better expression of patriotism than dressing up like a Poundshop paramilitary and intimidating families with kids trying to get onto a ferry.

Five people climb a gantry in the name of Just Stop Oil and the police shut the motorway, arrest the protesters and imprison them for up to 5 years. Hundreds of people block one of UK's busiest ports in the name of Stop the Boats, and the police do nothing and no-one is arrested. Really? Sigh.

Nigel Farage has threatened to abolish the House of Lords, restrict court powers, and remove civil servants if anyone stands in his way should he become Prime Minister.This sounds eerily similar to certain 1930s regimes. Yet, the turkeys will continue to vote for Christmas.

As a very basic thing, we as citizens should not accept the presence of a private army of masked racist thugs on the streets of our towns... intimidating others and threatening to overthrow the state... There are some fairly obvious precedents for this stuff.

I'm old enough to remember Nigel Farage ruling out any association with Le Pen's lot "now or in the future" because he considered them "far right". But I guess that's ok now. Here is what he said in 2013 and 2015.

The BBC has received criticism for their constant coverage of a minority right-wing Party in the UK. Their response, today, is to flood the news pages with multiple features. Labour have 403 MPs, the LibDems have 71 MPs, Reform have 8 MPs. This coverage is insane.

Incredible moment in the doc when Farage’s right-hand man Dan Jukes lists several foreign donors who’ve given money to the party via their kids. It’s not just one or two backers - it’s a huge conspiracy cooked up by the party to break the law. It’s bigger than we even thought
