"Dear Diary, There were six by-elections in England and Scotland this week and Reform lost all of them. Two of them were seats we previously held. The problem with running councils is that people can see how useless we are."

A man builds an IED. He sets it off in a busy public street. Shrapnel flies about hitting cars, homes and a child's bedroom. It's a miracle nobody is injured. And Reform MP Sarah Pochin calls his imprisonment "disproportionate" and "two tier justice."
It does raise this point of two-tiered
justice..


Reform's Sarah Pochin believes the
sentence handed to the 64-year-old who
blew up a ULEZ camera was
disproportionate'.

More self-harm and global harm from the USA: "And it’s not at all a massive, breathtakingly stupid security/intel breach letting a South African drug addict, who can’t keep a secret, with a history of impulsive, vindictive, selfish behavior have high-level access to the Pentagon."

So the BBC continue to quote Farage, who is now bellyaching on about National Security (he is the expert and the only MP quoted - so must be). Oddly enough he’s now silent about the ethnicity of the terrorists.
