It was terrible Mr Vice President what happened. And lessons will be learned. But here’s a thought - maybe concentrate instead on why 44000 Americans died last year from gun related deaths, and what can be done about your dreadful disease before you start lecturing others
If any Reform voters want to say that Kenyon (@RobKenyonReform) was ahead of Burnham (@AndyBurnhamGM)- then you will get exactly what you vote for. Burnham was so many leagues ahead it was embarrassing...

Andy Burnham - I know my words have consequences … all politicians do. if you give a statement at 8 am in the morning you are well aware of what you say and what might happen later in the day. Those consequences were seen on the streets of Southampton later that day.

What a ridiculous statement, why not extend this to other groups in society - bank robbers for example...
"I do not want to see people thrown in prison because they walked into a bank and held it up in the heat of moment."
I do not want to see patriots thrown in prison because they've had a beer or two, got fired up and acted stupid in the heat of the moment.
The state will make an example of you - they will show no mercy. Your life will be ruined.
Do not attack the police. Be smart. Stay calm.
This British army veteran, who fought at Atbara, asked rioters in Southampton to stop jumping on his car.
They did this to him whilst roaring
'Hurrah for Farage'
My direct message to @Nigel_Farage on @GBNEWS just now:
Restrain your language and use your platform as Leader of Reform UK to call for calm. It is time to lower the temperature and your voice carries weight.
As one father to another, there is still time to do the right thing.
Richard Gere on Trump: “We’re living in the darkest moment that I’ve experienced on this planet. Whoever thought America could turn like this? Whoever thought that a maniac like this would be president and dismantle all the good things? America’s never been a perfect place, but it has a perfect ideal. First day this guy dismantled almost everything that was good about the US government and people”
Victoria Derbyshire, "Keir Starmer telling Nigel Farage he has exploited the Henry Nowak case, is he right?"
Telegraphs' Annabel Denham, "Err, no, I don't think the PM is right"
Labour's Tom Hayes, "I'm just shocked by that, you've got a grieving family going through some of the worst experience anyone can ever know, and they've called on Nigel Farage not to exploit the death of their boy; and he literally did that in the House of Commons"
"Nigel Farage was given the opportunity to condemn the violence, which he himself incited, by calling for protests. He could have condemned the violence"
Annabel Denham, "Do you truly believe that the people in Southampton would have not taken to the streets in response to that sickening footage?"
Tom Hayes, "I spoke to the Southampton MP, the vast majority of people in their city protesting, came from outside Southampton"
"On top of that, Nigel Farage said this evening that there will be more to come"
Nigel Farage urged his supporters to react to Henry Nowak's murder with 'pure, cold rage'.
Eleven police officers were injured during unrest in Southampton last night.
James O'Brien asks: 'Is that cold enough for you'?
Farage: "The anger that you saw spilling out” on the streets of Southampton is in danger of getting considerably worse."
Keir Starmer: "My response and response of others, to be fair, has been focused on the lessons to be learned, so we can deliver justice. His (Farage’s) response has been to appeal for rage."
Angela Rayner - £40k underpaid stamp duty - repaid. Lost jobs in Cabinet and Dep. PM.
Peter Murrell - £400k theft from SNP - going to prison
Huge coverage of both
Nigel Farage - £5m undeclared bung (possibly more) - goes to ground for a month.
Media coverage? You judge.
Farage has done untold damage to the British economy by being instrumental in Brexit; enormous damage to British society by inflaming ethnic divisions; and incalculable damage to the probity of British politics by countenancing obscene levels of funding from disreputable sources.
Well done to Max Wilkinson from the Lib Dems (and others) in Parliament today calling out Farage for ignoring the wishes of the family of Henry and using their tragedy to stoke hate and division. Hear also the shouts of 'rubbish' from the Reform benches; shame on them. #ReformUK
The UK just recorded its ‘hottest ever May day.’ At Heathrow Airport, next to a runway full of jumbo jets.
The same trick they pulled in 2022 at RAF Coningsby while fighter jets were landing.
This is how the climate scare machine works. https://t.co/BlzTitVjAX
Gillian Keegan, "Everything Labour have done has been instinctively wrong"
Victoria Derbyshire, "You didn't have growth for 14 years"
Gillian Keegan whines, "Pandemic, Brexit"
Victoria Derbyshire, "Way before Brexit and the Pandemic, the Conservatives had paltry growth"
Gillian Keegan, "Liz Truss was a disaster, for the Conservative party's reputation, and the country will pay a price for that"
