Politics only makes sense if you think of it as a sales job. Do a good enough sale to get elected/selected, and then pursue the agenda you want. In some countries, they keep politicians to their promises (e.g. Switzerland), but the UK political system doesn't.

This is pretty scathing towards Prince William..

The Covid Inquiry Report, the ITV documentary on Reform, completely ignored by #bbclaurak All the focus today was on freedom of movement and how it’s a bad thing. I don’t think there’s ever been more compromised journalists at the BBC than Kuenssberg and Mason.

🚨🇬🇧 Turning Point UK's CEO was filmed offering an undercover reporter a menu of beatings, stabbings and killings through a Glasgow contact who says he arms the UVF
Al Jazeera’s undercover operation started in 2021 when a reporter joined the British offshoot of the American student group.
Its CEO Jack Ross, a Conservative candidate in 2023, introduced the reporter to Allan Nesbitt, a convicted criminal and self-described UVF member, agreed on camera to pay him to stage a fake pro-Zimbabwe rally, and priced out what Nesbitt’s friends could do to a person, from cutting faces to MURDER.
The UVF is the Ulster Volunteer Force, a Protestant loyalist paramilitary from Northern Ireland’s Troubles that killed over 500 people between 1966 and 1999, including 33 in one day in the Dublin and Monaghan bombings, and is still banned as a terror group.
Since the peace deal it has run mostly as a drug gang that kept the name and the guns.
Nesbitt reportedly met the reporter in a London hotel, offered to have a fictional business rival “finished,” claimed he’d personally stabbed a man to death, showed a shotgun and pistol on a video call and said the fee would buy weapons smuggled from Scotland into Northern Ireland.
Ross says it was a joke. The joke came with a price list, a weapons demo and a smuggling route, and the police now have a name and a video... and wasn't particularly funny.
Somebody in Turning Point UK’s donor base should be asking when the fundraising dinners turned into this.

Caroline Graham of the Daily Mail has spent years as Thomas Markle’s “rock solid friend” speaking to him most days, flying to the Philippines at his request, and sitting by his hospital bed providing “care and support.”
The Daily Mail platformed him relentlessly to attack Meghan.
Now reports say his own son found hundreds, if not thousands of child sex abuse images among his belongings in the Philippines and reported it to authorities.
What did Caroline Graham actually know about the man she described as a father figure?
And what did Dan Wootton know after years of giving him and the rest of the family a platform?
Authorities investigating this should be asking both of them hard questions.

Quite simply: Brexit ended free movement from Europe and Boris replaced it with a far more liberal immigration system for the rest of the world. Employers switched recruitment accordingly. Non-EU immigration then exploded. Brexit didn't require the Boriswave. Brexit gave Boris the power to create it. And he did.

Eight have made losses exceeding £200m in that period (2015/16 to 2024/25).

I'm confused. I thought it was built on the graves of 13,000 Palestinians?

29 students.
That's the total number of Jewish students in the Bell report who said they've experienced antisemitism.
29.
Meanwhile, 30 Palestinians have been reported murdered by Israel in the past 10 days.
The Govt has allocated £7 million to tackle antisemitism across education
In England there are approx 14K Jewish students in non-Jewish schools
