Just play fair, that's all I ask.

[Supertanskiii @supertanskiii]

Three minutes of essential viewing from Years and Years by Russell T Davies.

Vivienne Rook, a populist figure who emulates Farage, normalising the use of “camps” to deal with a *British* population stricken by unrest and social collapse.

This is the Reform/ Restore blueprint.

Jon Kay: there’s been a large increase in young people being out of work.

Jacqui Smith: No there hasn’t, it was also a problem for the last govt.

If only @Ofcom @lisanandy would do their job and stop broadcasters from constantly lying.

Sir Alex Younger was true patriot and one of the clearest strategic minds Britain has produced in recent decades.

His honest assessment of Brexit that it delighted Putin and Xi while marginalising the UK was blunt, brave, and correct.

He understood national power and resilience. Britain cannot afford to be sidelined in a dangerous world.

Yet here we are: Hormuz choking fertiliser and energy, farmers skipping sowing, milk stuck at 35p/litre at the farm gate, and no domestic buffer left.

Reform’s Government Reorganisation Plan Isn’t Reform.
It’s Capture

Something doesn’t add up and it is keeping me up!

Reform keep telling people they are the party of freedom.

Freedom from elites.
Freedom from the establishment.
Freedom from the “blob”.
Freedom from unelected power.

Sounds nice.
Until you look at what they actually want.
Because this is not just a civil service plan.
It is a government re-organiosation plan.

Scrap the Cabinet Office.
Break up the Cabinet Secretary role.
Centralise more power around No.10.
Treat independent institutions as obstacles.

That is not small government. That is not democratic renewal. That is not “taking back control”.

That is political capture dressed up as patriotism.

The civil service is not perfect. Of course it isn’t.

It can be slow.
It can be cautious.
It can be frustrating.
It can hide behind process.
Fine.

But the answer to that is reform, competence and accountability.

Once you start saying civil servants must be politically obedient to one party’s agenda, you are no longer improving the state.

You are replacing neutrality with fear.

And that matters. It really really matters.

Because that is how government stops serving the country and starts serving the people at the top.

And here is the irony.

Reform say they hate the establishment.
But this is exactly how establishments protect themselves.

Not by making institutions independent. But by filling them with loyalists.

Not by welcoming scrutiny. But by punishing disagreement.

Not by improving delivery. But by controlling the machine.

We have seen this language before.

Attack the courts.
Attack the civil service.
Attack the media.
Attack regulators.
Attack anyone who says, “slow down, where is the evidence?”

Then call every safeguard a conspiracy. Call every expert a traitor. Call every institution “the enemy”.

Again and again.

And once people are angry enough, present party control as liberation.

That is the trick.

Reform are not offering a cleaner state. They are offering a more obedient one.

Real reform makes government work better for the public.

Fake reform makes government work harder for the party.

There is a difference.

We are seeing Project 2025 enter through the backdoor.

And Britain needs to see it before it is dressed up as patriotism.

If you are interested in the details here is the link - its scary.

The last time I checked, Madison Square Garden didn’t have a drone port and a ballroom with bulletproof glass windows.

How will Donald Trump ever be safe there tonight?

Just like Zia Yusuf, Laila Cunningham keeps being invited on to BBC programmes, but isn’t actually elected to anything, having not had the courage to stand again as councillor.

Thanks, Trump. Your admin gutted pest control & border health programs, and now this horror is back after 60 years.

Among the many, many shocking lines in this story is the fact that the British police bungled their investigation into the first reports of Tate's sexual abuse a decade ago. They failed to record an interview properly, & just left his phone (evidence) lying around the station.

[Compassion in World Farming UK @ciwf]

This #WorldOceansDay, help to stop @PescanovaCorp from building the world's first octopus farm.

Not only would this farm be incredibly cruel, these animals would need 1000s of tonnes of wild-caught fish, harming marine life and our oceans.

This was the FIFA WORLD CUP “welcome” for Senegal’s team in the U.S.

FULL detailed INSPECTION.

This is a national tragedy. It was inevitable after 2020 and Megyn's probably lying here, but if you get to the point where you can't believe Rs finished third in jungle primaries in a deep blue state in a year the R president's favorability is minus a billion, nothing's real

Someone needs to post the host state agreement between FIFA and the U.S. because this is absolutely insane and totally out of keeping with the ways in which host city agreements in the U.S. seem to operate (FIFA mostly calls the shots in those agreements).

[Meral Hussein-Ece @meralhece]

What other minor political party is allowed such a privileged platform to set out false information. @bbclaurak & other journalists should be testing facts to the public not on so called “2 tier policing” not perpetrating blatant propoganda.

[Paul Manc Bald and Bred @MufcWonItAll2]

Why the fuck are there so many Americans slagging the English police off.?

Since I was born 89 people in England have been killed by English Police.

Also since I was born 37,000 Americans have been killed by the police in the USA.

Just Saying. 🤷‍♂️
