The triple lock is unsustainable. A dual lock based on raised inflation or the average wage would still be fair. Savings could help to fund social care. No pensioners would lose money.

Farage is severely disappointed that the suspected terrorists of Fairfield are all English nationals from London. The racist Reform leader was already suggesting that they would be illegal immigrants.

50% of Reform voters would call their first born child Nigel. Fortunately, most of them are impotent and can't spell.

The US treatment of legal immigrants is immoral and corrupt. ICE shoots them, or even deports them to third countries in chains, with no concept of human rights. A new, cruel slave trade.

You would think that a Triumphal Arch would need a measure of triumph....somewhere. Could somebody enlighten me on where Trump has triumphed?

President Trump has made an earth-shattering agreement with Denmark to change absolutely nothing in Greenland. What a pity he didn't use the same tactic with Iran and leave Obama's nuclear deal in place.

Over 1000 people joined in the search for missing 3 year old Noah, while just down the road Lifeboat volunteers were violently abused for assuring the safety of migrants. What a world we live in.

Millions of Russians are voting in an election where they know nothing can change. Will the same be true of the U.S. elections in November, or will freedom of choice be a reality?

Trump is against the slowing of the development of AI. Do you think this octogenarian has decided to take us all with him?

Sarah Pochin tells the Reform faithful that Sharia Law (there is no such thing in Britain) is a threat to our civilisation. More racist nonsense from a racist talking to racists.

Channel 4's expose of Reform corruption showed Farage eating six oysters. So the 'man of the people' has decided that a pint of beer and a fag are no longer in vogue?

Generous Trump has pledged half a million dollars to disaster relief in Nepal, despite American tourists among the missing. The Reflecting Pool is obviously more important.

Why was there no US representation at the Ukraine Independence Day events today? Trump, who promised to end the war within days, is now willing to let barbaric Putin murder Ukrainian civilians nightly, with no help or regard to war crimes. Coward.

Mark Carney is exemplifying the way to deal with Trump. Canada are truly fortunate to have a principled and effective leader who understands the need to diversify exports and cut imports from the USA. I hope Canadians back him to the hilt.

Farage lied to avoid the Declaration. But he cannot avoid the derision. He cannot avoid further Parliamentary scrutiny. The Chicken is stuffed.

Spreading conspiracy theories about child vaccinations will be a direct cause of death or serious health damage to countless thousands of American children. Trump and Kennedy are a danger to children.

Apparently, a boy and a girl from each US State will be representatives at Trump's 'Patriot Games.' Sound familiar?

I would like to thank Farage for taking Sarah Pochin down to Clacton, getting her out of our constituency for a while. Vote Binface.

Nigel Farage was not invited to Andy's party because he was not interested in Care reform. Now he's complaining because he missed out on the goody bags. Maybe he should go debate a bin.

Nigel Farage to hold talks with himself over solutions to the Care Crisis. Then he'll decide on no change because there's nothing in it for him.

Reform drops in the polls. Is it because:- 1. Farage is enveloped in financial sleaze? 2. Farage faces losing to a bin in Clacton? 3. British voters are finally seeing sense?

The USA has 'paused' bombing Iran for three days now. Is it because they wish to negotiate, or just that they cannot find military targets and are running out of bombs? Trump's brilliant military strategy still sees the Strait of Hormuz closed and Iran's nuclear capability undiminished.

So Trump is imposing more import tariffs on 60 trading partners, alleging they are exploiting labour. Hope you Americans will enjoy paying higher prices as a result. How are gas prices by the way?
