Kemi Badenoch condemned Reform's ban on critical journalists covering their conference as "authoritarian", saying her own party would never do the same as "we believe in free speech. We believe in a free press." Now the Conservatives have banned Byline Times from their conference

Rain today makes me feel our future is heading towards "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep". Just waiting for a floating ad platform to pass me, advertising "off-world colonies". Heard that Ridley Scott's skyline was inspired by the (Now former) industrial chemical plants near Redcar NE England.

MSNOW aired the part of the Talarico interview that Fox isn’t showing: REPORTER: …you said ‘there are 6 biological sexes.’ Do you still believe that? TALARICO: I think the reason that politicians… across the street want to talk about 6 sexes is because they don’t want to talk about $6 diesel.

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.
Not only is this system astonishingly untested, USPS has simultaneously implemented an
impracticable zero percent failure rate.
13 When ballots are submitted to USPS in large-volume
batches, if any one ballot in the batch cannot be verified against the Portal, all ballots in that
batch will be rejected. For example, if a state election official brings a batch of 10,000 ballots to
USPS and USPS is unable to match just one of those ballots against the Portal – because, for
example, someone has recently changed their name after marriage or they’ve moved – then
USPS would refuse to mail the remaining 9,999 ballots as well. As the whistleblower notes,

The first thing Nigel Farage has done after being re-elected as MP for Clacton was to not visit Clacton to hear the results and making some pathetic excuse. At least he’s consistent I suppose! Now, about this parliamentary investigation in to his failure to declare his dodgy finances …

Jenrick jumps at another opportunity to make a fool of himself. And Reform sinks further into unserious, unprincipled unelectable territory. A corrupt clownshow, desperate to peddle anger rather than hope. @mrjohncrace.bsky.social sighs deeply at their inanity. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
Jenrick giving a speech with a flash card saying ‘DEATH TAX’ behind him.

When you've lost the trust of GB
News, when you're too deranged, too extreme and too outright mendacious for your
biggest fan, then you know you are in trouble.
You can almost sense the panic beginning to set in at Reform HQ.The first question came from GB News, more in sorrow than in anger. Why had Honest Bob made such a fool of himself? Why not actually try to join in the cross-party talks to find a solution to such a serious problem? Why the scare tactics of a death tax that isn't even government policy? If the Tories and the Lib Dems could behave as grownups and engage with Andy Burnham, why couldn't Reform?
Instead, Reform ended up looking like a deeply unserious party. One that didn't even have a health and social care spokesperson.
