Nigel Farage is a risk to the UK - just ask people in Belfast

Eurovision's press release buries the lede: losing 35 million viewers is not a slip-up. The EBU's explanation? Five members "chose not to participate." And yet: UK down 3.7m. Poland down 3.8m. France down 3.3m. People were voting with their remotes. The EBU needs to wake up.

The EBU "has demonstrated that its principles are negotiable when the politics are inconvenient. An institution whose principles are negotiable is not a cultural project; it’s just propaganda" @pabloohana.bsky.social @middleeasteye-rss.bsky.social www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/euro...

Eurovision abandoned its values over Gaza, and lost me as a lifelong fan

Utterly baffled by Labour's decision to campaign in Didsbury West, where John Leech – who has never lost a local election and got 60% of the vote last time when Labour were nationally polling three times higher than they are now – is up for re-election.

No one believes me when I repeatedly say that the core of Britain is not swinging to Reform and Farage. I was convinced Manchester wouldn't go for Reform, and they haven't. Tonight, they slammed the door in Farage's face with 70%+ voting against him.
