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.”

Reform’s newest MP has praised “concerned British men” for organising private street patrols and has accused illegal immigrants of thinking they had a “right to sexually assault women”. Sarah Pochin said that private security personnel were protecting their wives, daughters and mothers from sexual assault. She also accused illegal migrants from “predominantly Muslim” countries of having a “medieval view of women’s rights fundamentally alien to our own western values”.

There is a Discworld quote for EVERYTHING

He knew in his heart that spinning upside down around a pole wearing a costume you could floss with definitely was not Art, and being painted lying on a bed wearing nothing but a smile and a small bunch of grapes was good solid Art, but putting your finger on why this was the case was a bit tricky. “No urns,” he said at last. “What urns?” said Nobby. “Nude women are only Art if there’s an urn in it,” said Fred Colon. This sounded a bit weak even to him, so he added: “Or a plinth. Best is both, o’course. It’s a secret sign, see, that they put in to say that it’s Art and okay to look at.” “What about a potted plant?” “That’s okay if it’s in an urn.”

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.

And is responsible for much of the shit show this government inherited. Every public service was refunded and broken. We want instant results but it takes time and money.

Reminder that today Reform UK are defending 2 seats in by-elections. Benfieldside and Newark West. Both caused by their councillors standing down after the local elections just days after being elected. Taxpayers’ money wasted today to the tune of circa £50k.
