The idea that being *a member of the House of Lords* in any way means you can be trusted with Top Secret/STRAP material without proper vetting is so beyond absurd that this must surely be a joke?

"We accidentally made an animated graphic for Reform and then did a party political broadcast for them by mistake."
I went and watched the segment on iPlayer. This is absolutely wild. It’s basically doing a free micro political broadcast for Reform during BBC Breakfast.
BBC BBC FFAGAN SAIN BBC NEWS Reform UK will tell Welsh museums how to present history, manifesto says
Absolutely.
The fuck.
Not.
And any of my countryfolk knowingly deciding to vote for surrendering yet more of our culture to English millionaires who would be happier if we all died are clearly a bigger threat to our nation than any immigrant.
OMFG I had to go and check that this ACTUALLY happened.
Since when does the BBC ever do chyrons with a political party's branding, rather than their own? Not to mention this is during a pre-election campaign purdah.

Just turned on the 6.00am news on Radio 4 on Thursday 16th & they’re leading for *the second day running* with another story hyping asylum fraud.
Who needs GB News with “our” BBC nakedly trying to twist the news agenda to suit the far right?
Our licence fees are funding propaganda & division.

Orban and Farage
Really hope Vance turns up to campaign for Reform
Reform is an anagram of Former, which is apt for a bunch of Former Tories.
*Starmer voice* "It was a defensive nuclear strike launched from US soil within the borders of the United Kingdom, but we are still not involved: I want to be very clear about that."
Four headlines in which Marjorite Taylor Greene, Tucker Carolson, Piers Morgan, and Alex Jones condemn Trump for his genocidal threats to Iran.
Imagine being a moderate Republican and getting outflanked on decency, morality, and basic humanity by these four nutters
Why do we live in such a childish, stupid country? A country that wastes its money on useless billion dollar aircraft carriers, when it could be spending those tax dollars to actually help its citizens like sane countries.
Welsh Dave says what now?
The answer is Norway has public ownership of oil and gas with govt owning 67% of Equinor (formerly Statoil): the state energy company. In the UK Thatcher privatised British National Oil Corporation starting in 1982 selling a 51% stake before selling the remain stake in 1985.
As he likes putting his name on everything, I hope the next global recession will be known as the Trump Slump.

It's my own fault for using ChatGPT as a search tool, but this really made me laugh. "...with an important nuance..." is sublime 🤌
Ever wonder why most of the media provide wall-to-wall coverage of everything the far right does or says, while ignoring far bigger rallies and events and far more interesting discussions elsewhere on the political spectrum?
There's no mystery. It's because they want the far right to triumph.

When slack- jawed MAGA sycophants talk about Trump playing 4D chess, I don't think we should dismiss the possibility that what they're actually describing is watching the mad old bastard struggling with Kerplunk.
I am very excited to announce that Tufton Street think tank, Think, Tank! is back in business and that Mark Francois is front and centre once again.

Facebook post by King’s Royal Hussars, showing a Challenger II firing on a range in Wales. And that’s a wrap on B Squadron’s 2026 joint range package with @royaltankregiment. After four weeks on the tanks in Wales, our Hussars are even more competent, qualified and most importantly lethal. They now will roll straight into preparation for their upcoming exercises on Salisbury Plain where their tactical skills will be put to the test. Want to be a part of something more? The KRH are recruiting. DM us today. #tank #britisharmy #military #army
Regret to inform that the British army has now also bought into the Lethality(tm) bollox.
Reform UK's Andrew Winston-Jones, #Senedd candidate for Bangor Aberconwwy.
He likes the racist Voice of Wales on Facebook. Yep, the far-right organisation set up by convicted PPI call centre fraudster Dan Morgan and far-right activist Stan Robinson.

As he likes putting his name on everything, I hope the next global recession will be known as the Trump Slump.

I see Question Time has reached its inevitable endgame. It was bound to happen.

(For the uninitiated: Reform Wales don't know how to spell "immigration" on their leaflets. Welsh is a "foreign language", after all)
