Reform Ltd promising to end 'something for nothing Britain'. Meanwhile, Reform boss, Farridge earns something like 100k for doing nothing for Clacton.
Nigel Farage tweet:
"Reform will end "something for nothing" Britain.

552,835 – number of members when Keir Starmer took over the leadership of the Labour Party on 4 April 2020. Fewer than 250,000 – current Labour Party membership.
Article from the Telegraph: Sir Kier Starmer has said he wants to be remembered as "the person that saved Labour" from extinction.

He said his main legacy was rooting anti-Semitism out of the party and making it electable again after its historic defeat in 2019.

Reckon you could change *'very easily dislikeable'* to *'confident and black'* and I think we'd have found the real reason as to why so many fans hate him.
A Facebook post that reads:
Is Jude Bellingham the most dislikable player in the recent history of the England team? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👎
The post embeds a tweet from someone on Twxtter that reads:
Gadfly: Got to be honest here, Bellingham could score five in the final to secure the World Cup but I still won't be able to stand him. He's much like Lewis Hamilton in just being very easily dislikeable.

Facebook post from Andy Burnham in 2016:
At an uncertain time like this for our country, I cannot see how it makes sense for the Opposition to plunge itself into a civil war.  

I have never taken part in a coup against any Leader of the Labour Party and I am not going to start now.  

It is for our members to decide who leads our Party and 10 months ago they gave Jeremy Corbyn a resounding mandate. I respect that and them.

This could have come straight from an Onion article.

I have a sitcom I want to write called Nepo Babies. It's fly-on-the-wall docu style and follows the antics of a few deluded young influencers, actors, singers, who all believe they have made it based on their own genius and nothing to do with their parents millions.
The pic shows some text with a pic underneath of Brooklyn Beckham. He looks annoying. He is wearing a flat cap backwards on his head with a collarless shirt, and has a smug grin on his stupid, annoying face.

The text reads: "Brooklyn Beckham says he 'hasn't worked for five years.'

Brooklyn, 27, claims he's been too focused on developing his hot sauce brand Cloud23.

He says: 'I'm always calling the CEO on Sunday at 10pm with a crazy idea of what direction we might go in or a condiment idea.'

'I can come across as annoying sometimes.' 👇

Knows what he's talking about and definitely isn't a liar, oh no.
In March 2024, Goodwin wrote in The Sun that, "Eight years ago I did some political fortune-telling that led to people thinking I was insane. I was one of only a few analysts who predicted that not only would Britain vote to leave the EU but also that America would elect President Donald Trump". However, Will Jennings of the University of Southampton said that when speaking at an event at the London School of Economics on the day of the Brexit referendum, Goodwin actually predicted a two-point Remain win. While Goodwin gave Trump a better chance of winning in the 2016 US presidential election than some pundits, he nonetheless wrote that Trump "would most likely fail". Goodwin also incorrectly predicted that Trump would win the 2020 election.

A picture of the front cover of shit rag 'news' paper, The Sun. It has a picture of ex Man Utd manager, Ruben Amorin and the headline, When your trophies are nil and you've cost 30 mil... That's Amorin.

Clearly, the headline writers are trying to summon up the song, That's Amore, not understanding that Amorin's surname is pronounced 'Am-or-in', not 'A-mor-in', so it just doesn't scan right.
