I would suspect that Anas Sarwar has different predictions about Labour's chances to literally everyone else in the world. #ThePolitics

He's... he's going to go to the ECHR and claim that he has a right to privacy isn't he?

I'll be honest, when you've got Fraser Nelson, even in his pretending to be Sensible guise, on the attack against you you do have to wonder how the Reform setup lasts until GE 2029. #ThePolitics

Quite a lot of The_Politics_Understanders getting het up about the lack of coverage of a <checks notes>council by-election. #ThePolitics

Keir Starmer is not a tall man, but he does not give off 'Small Man Energy'. I am not a tall man, but I like to think that I don't give off that energy. I thought that Rishi Sunak had terrible Small Man Energy, but the tiny fascist brigade like Jenrick and Francois are infinitely worse. #ThePolitics

What I'm basically saying is "inflation is happening anyway, double my salary" #ThePolitics

"We need enormous government subsidies to the energy and fuel markets AND we pay too much tax!" are contradictory statements and I'm sick of humouring people who hold them and ESPECIALLY sick of MPs who espouse them. Davey, there's a small chance you could be LotO. Do better FFS. #ThePolitics

Fuel duty being cut by 10p means your diesel will cost £2.20/l in three-six months time rather than £2.30.

I'm getting rather sick of any fuel price rise being pegged on fuel duty when the duty has barely changed in decades. #ThePolitics

Oh I see it's happened again.
Again.
Again.

Have we covered the Badenoch 'Rather than chairing yet another COBRA meeting, the Prime Minister should get Britain drilling' tweet from last night? I went to bed early so might have missed it. #ThePolitics

There will never be another leader like her (derogatory)

Merge OFSTED into the Home Office, and abolish them both. Same "what the fuck are you looking at" culture in both. #ThePolitics

I've long thought part of the problem is people can't comprehend large numbers.

One election focused on £6bn of proposed spending.

That's a lot if it's in your bank account (setting aside the madness it seems to cause) - but it's a rounding error in government budget.

Listening to PMQs, because masochism. My word Badenoch is a thick, nasty, awful dose. #ThePolitics

You know the old comedians gag that finishes "The Aristocrats!"

Works as well with "Reform UK!"

There's no bottom to the barrel of appalling Reform people. It's just a portal to the fiery depths of hell. #ThePolitics

Listening to a podcast about Canada. Every Canadian I've met has been delightful. It seems that I've never met anyone from Alberta, which sounds like where they keep their bastards. #ThePolitics

The UK government has published an emergency plan for fuel.

Cue dickheads queuing to panic buy at petrol station forecourts like it's the pathetic fuel protests of 2000 in 3, 2, 1...

I learned something new today - if you need to do a quick sanity check on the authenticity of a Truth social post by you know who this site keeps a rolling update of them without dipping your <redacted> into <redacted, but worryingly descriptive> #ThePolitics

Now I've got that joke out of the way I will want to check this pod out.

A lot of these Cameos came from when Farage had no plans to get back into politics, so I'm assuming at last one and probably nearer 20 people have a video of Farage shouting "Up the RA" or similar. If you do, it's rude not to share. #ThePolitics

Ah feck it, I'm really annoyed now (not by Duncan). We (the UK) live in a society that operates on the knife edge and demands government support to protect it from shocks, but doesn't appreciate where the money for that protection comes from. #ThePolitics

One for @rich-bryant.uk - I read that @henrymance.ft.com lunch with Farage piece this morning over my fancy middle class breakfast and dear old God Bless Our Troops Nige repeated his boast about how the Taliban agreed with him to take Afghani asylum seekers back in it. #ThePolitics

Apologies for the #ThePolitics misery posting but this thread about Lowe reminds me of how, on seeing a multiperson kayak on a charidee thing, managed to raise a mob off of Facebook to protect the beach from small boat migrants. IN GREAT YARMOUTH.

Listening to @ohgodwhatnow.bsky.social discussing Kemi being "able to start a fight in a lift, alone" and having a self-defined "tough guy persona" - oh no, she's Dennis Wise. #ThePolitics

If Kemi Badenoch, who reflexively opposes anything suggested by the government, makes an exception for your god-awful immigration proposals, you are definitely on the wrong track. #ThePolitics #AbolishTheHomeOffice #AbolishTheHomeSecretary
