This is just next level insanity. In January this year, Reform picked Sharon Carby, aged 70, from Bradford, to run as their Croydon Mayoral candidate. There was just one rather significant problem. She had sadly died in July 2024. insidecroydon.com/2025/08/27/f...

Reform MP Sarah Pochin’s praise for men who “protect their wives and daughters” from asylum seekers reflects the point in my column. “It’s an extension of the centuries-old racial prejudice ethnic minorities are a sexual threat to white females - and the white males who claim possession of them.”

Dalek Action, a pro-Dalek protest group highlighting the continued oppression, and genocide, of the Daleks, by a variety of intergalactic colonisers, likely to be proscribed as a terrorist group.

In 2017 I was arrested protesting outside DSEI. The desk Sargent said to me 'I'm just going to release the Dalek and then I'll book you in'! Anti-genocide protesting Dalek's are just the greatest, I bet Starmer proscribes them for being galactic terrorists!

Dismissing a complaint because it's a template is wrong. Many industry scandals have changed by large numbers using a template. Some people don't write well, doesn't mean they don't have a point. Maybe this is why the BBC has done nothing to change its editorial output.

Before Margaret Thatcher Council Tax was Domestic Rates and it was based on the value of your house. So if it was worth 100x as much as the average, you paid 100x as much. She changed it to Council tax which has a cap of 3x and is cheapest in all the richest areas.
