Council wins High Court battle banning flags on lampposts - as workers urged to check vehicles for trackers LBC article There was a single Re-Form councillor elected in Oxfordshire at the last elections so they are a very much a fringe outfit round here. Sounds like the Council is standing firm.

Far Rage on the run with no where to hide and they’re closing in on him.

Watched the film yesterday and immediately listened to @alexpodyssey.bsky.social Excellent discussion and will watch the film again with greater insight. Definitely needed more involvement from Greek people and missed the light of Greece. Our spiritual home is Poros on the Peloponnese ❤️

Reform UK donor and Farage ally George Cottrell carried a fake Swiss passport under the name ‘Oscar Drewitt’. Cottrell was hired under the name by the future Reform treasurer Mehrtash A’zami. A’zami later vetted Cottrell’s mother's donations to Reform, now the subject of a police investigation
