@MittensOff @MC98Nick Apparently local voters have seen the light… Divvy Liv was defeated by Labour. 🤣

[The Rev. Anton Mittens 🌹👮🎓 @MittensOff]

This is Liv from Reform UK. Liv is sitting in a by-election today in Kidsgrove, Staffordshire a re-run of the May election. It's being held as a result of (checks notes), Liv not turning up to sign the necessary papers to assume office. On her induction as a Newcastle 'Borough' Council she thought Kidsgrove 'Town' Council meetings were held there too.
DON'T VOTE LIV, LIV IS AN IDIOT.

Clacton has a choice:

Option A: be known as the constituency who appointed a fascist

Option B: forever be remembered as the legends who appointed Count Binface

I know which I’d pick!

Estate agent called to say the buyer on my late parents house wants to renegotiate price. This after I'd met all the conditions she'd set and was waiting for a completion date.

I instructed him to tell her to go fuck herself and I will gladly put the property back on the market.

It must be so frustrating to be a Conservative politician and to have all these fantastic ideas for how to make the country better so soon after having 14 years in power when all they did was make the country worse.

If you are wondering how many boats came before the referendum?
You can count the 10 years of boats prior to the referendum on 1 hand!!!
Yes, there were lorries but we were in the EU in which we had a return agreement (The Dublin Accord 2002)

When is a gift, not a gift? When it is a £5 million payment by a political donor to a politician who then gets elected and pursues the interests of the political donor while hiding that he received the payment in the first place.

Richard Tice, Reform’s deputy leader, is now under formal investigation by the parliamentary standards watchdog for failing to declare an interest while speaking about Israel in a Westminster Hall debate.

Meanwhile:

Nigel Farage faces investigation over a £5m undeclared gift

Robert Jenrick (now Reform) faces a Met Police probe over a £37,500 donation to his Tory leadership campaign

That’s the top of the party under active scrutiny for money and transparency failures.

They sell themselves as the clean alternative.

The record says otherwise. Bought influence isn’t reform.

It’s the same game with a different badge.

It remains a puzzle. Jack Charlton died 10 July 2020 and his estate was valued at around £790,000. In his will he left his 1966 world cup medal and shirt to his three children Deborah, John, and Peter. He left everything else to his wife who is by these accounts still alive so that was free of IHT. The only IHT issue would be if the medal and shirt were valued at over the IHT threshold which is, then and now, £325,000. The highest price obtained for one of these on-field winner's medals is around £250,000. With the shirt it might have crossed that threshold. But the two together would need to have been valued net of expenses of sale at a total of £825,000 for the surplus to be £500,000 and IHT of £200,000 to be due. That is more than the court approved value of Jack's whole estate. If any IHT was due it should have been paid by the end of January 2021. Giving the medal back to his mother to reduce the IHT would have to have been done by all three siblings in agreement by a deed of family arrangement within 2 years of Jack's death ie before 10 July 2022. If that was done to avoid any IHT charged on the medal and shirt then the story could sort of be true. But £200,000 seems completely implausible as the whole estate net was worth £789,714. If anyone has further thoughts let me know. I have his will and grant of probate.

How many of You believe that Trump has restarted the Iran War to distract AMERICANS 🇺🇸 from the EPSTEIN FILES ? ✋️

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Trump knew no one cut a “350 ft gash” in the reflecting pool.
He knew it was a botched job.
He knew he spent $15M of our dollars for nothing.
He invented the lie anyway.
He pushed it.
And he had his cronies charge an innocent man.
All so he could save face.
It’s not surprising.
But it is disgusting.

Journalist rumbles Jenrick's outrage, "How do you know there are no exemptions or thresholds when Andy Burnham hasn't even set it out?"

Robert Jenrick admits in his answer that Andy Burnham hasn't even said how it will be paid for

Which begs the question, why is he getting angry at something he doesn't know about?

That's the problem with Reform UK. It's not about dialogue or conversation or debate, it's just a constant churn of heated anger, division and dispute
