19.00 Reform launches internal inquiry. 19.10 Inquiry concluded. Reform declares itself innocent.

At the end of last year the press was filled with reports of Farage’s alleged racism when in school. Including a “Hitler was right” comment.

Many far Right activists seem to be: - Fake Christians - Bot-dependent propagandists - Domestic abusers defending “are wimin and kids” - Happy to regard billionaires as saviours of the ‘authentic working class’ - Putin- & Trump-loving ‘patriots’.

Portraying David Icke as an anti-Lizardist is a slur perpetrated by the mainstream media. And lizards have legitimate questions to answer, anyway.

Yep, makes sense. Though was the 1979 good enough?? Only joking, let’s not go there right now!

Plus, the responses of Badenoch and Farage has been exactly what you’d expect them to be. Job done.

Burnham is definitely writing the 2029 manifesto now. But is also implementing enough so that the 2029 pitch will be ‘Do you want more of this or do you want to live in a Tory/Reform tribute act which loops around 1979 or 2016 or whatever.’

For sure. But linking reducing the triple lock to a 2.5 lock sounds like good politics and without the politics things either (1) don’t get done at all or (2) they are done behind closed doors, until people notice and get well pissed off, e.g. freezing tax thresholds.

Sloppy33 @sloppy87.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
I can’t speak to the vibe of the party. But much depends on a robust assessment of whether the triple lock as done its job of reversing the cuts the beloved Thatch made to the state pension.

Nottingham staff last had a strike of similar length in the Autumn of 2019. So: (1) following substantial redundancies in 2020 things are probably even worse now, (2) the BBC ought to do some effing research. Plus ca change.

Protesting against the plays of George Bernard Shaw perhaps? Fair enough, I suppose. Though My Fair Lady was good.

Effective action against global warming will require sharing the benefits and burdens of those actions. Fair shares is offensive to those who hate equality, inclusion, celebration of diversity. Therefore, they reverse engineer by saying either: (1) GW is a hoax, (2) GW is real but not too serious.

Once enough nations have a far Right nationalist government they’d abandon their ersatz internationalism and start playing ‘my nation is better than yours’. Next stop, war. If there’s a later stop, humanity would no doubt reinvent the very values and global agencies we are currently throwing away.

The base either won’t care or perform mental cartwheels to convince themselves it’s not true. But Reform-curious voters will care. Hopefully, the ceiling on Reform’s support will therefore become lower.

Damns the Times & Telegraph as well, of course. Their responses to Ch4 was all about the polling company. ‘Don’t blame us, we’re only a newspaper!’ Wonder how they’ll report this. “Bad news for Burnham,” probably.
