It's OK for criminal ex-neo Nazis to run your bins is a hell of a line.
Pretending that the Navy taking back migrants would be a humanitarian mission and therefore legal, is a bit like pretending that a £5 million bribe is nothing to do with politics and therefore doesn't need to be declared.
The state of this. A lovely day out for Badenoch and Philp, playing dress up and making pronouncements about early release schemes - having left the country with one hundred available men's prison places, after fourteen years in charge. You read that right. One hundred places.
1/14 A brief break from #TheHormuzCrisis. I've never really explained why the phrase "put the Navy in the Channel" to stop #SmallBoat crossings isn't, in itself, a serious maritime strategy. It sounds decisive. From a maritime perspective though, it raises far more questions than it answers.
The picture on the front of Reform's policy is of HMS Ocean on the River Thames in 2012. It was sold by to the Brazilian navy in 2018. Turns out you can judge a book by its cover.
It says a lot about a politician when 20% of people would rather vote for a bin.
"I said it's a bold move by Reform to use the Navy to return migrants. What did I say Roy?" "You said it's an unworkable load of bollocks designed to win back some racist numbskulls from Rupert Lowe and distract attention from Farage's £5m bung"
Folks, we found it. The least mysterious mystery ever.

Weirdly, despite repeated requests, I haven't had any invitations to Reform press events since I asked a month ago whether Farage was scared of questions about his finances.
Adam Bienkov@adambienkov.bsky.social · 3d agoNigel Farage just took a question from a 'journalist' at his press conference, who turned out to be his former chief adviser Raheem Kassam, who asks him why the media are being so unfair to him
There's that clip of Trump failing to respond when asked what his favourite passages from the Bible are. That same question should be posed here about the New Testament to all right wing politicians in the UK claiming to be Christians. Go on Richard Tice, tell us your Gospel Top 10.
Seven she woke me up this morning. Now I’m wide awake she has decided to sleep again
If you watch anything on #Moroccans coming to #Ceuta, make it this report. CBS News have interviewed some of them & they confirm that social media posts on Facebook & Instagram told them Spain had opened its borders. They're playing with people's hopes & lives. It's awful. We must combat fake news.
Take note. "For years, Moscow has used migration and other sensitive topics to stoke fear and destabilize European countries." From the Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine 👇
Dentist has been nagging me for ages to buy a water flosser. Anyway I did. Used it for the first time tonight and a piece of my tooth just fell off. So yay 🥳

friend who's still on Twitter informs me that this absolute howler passed us by yesterday (yes, this was Burnham's speech on social care)
Suffolk wildfire takes hold and Homes evacuated.. And still grifters like Badenoch, Farage, Tice / Reform Party, Truss etc deny climate change spouting “Net Stupid” BS taking💰💰from Oil & Gas Companies Lining their pockets more important than people’s lives & those of future generations 😡
Suffolk wildfire updates: Homes and caravan park evacuated as major incident declared
A man tells the BBC there was a "hammering" on the door of his cottage at Dunwich Cliffs late on Wednesday - he and his wife were told to "go immediately".

Brilliant post from Mr Ethical in 'the other place'. He also suggests that Count Binface should start a party called Refuse.
We’ll know if Binface is likely to win Clacton because Farage will announce he’s stepping aside saying the Deep State is working against him. He can’t be seen to lose, and neither can Reform .
Well, I think none of us can say we're surprised. Thursday. Good morning.
A Parliamentary Standards investigation into an undeclared £5m gift. A request for HMRC to investigate if tax is owed. A police investigation into £500K of Reform UK donations by George Cottrell's mother. Reform cry "establishment stitch up". At what point does it become "established pattern"?
Journalists all lining up with their gotcha questions
