😬 Ed Davey left squirming on Sky News as Sophy Ridge dismantles his fantasy polling claim.

Watch the Lib Dem leader tie himself in knots when pressed on his bold assertion that MRP polls would make him Leader of the Opposition.

Sophy: “You’re not calling for an election now?”

Davey: dodges, then claims “if you look at some of the polls, I’d be leader of the opposition.”

Ridge wasn’t buying it: “What polls?”

Davey mumbles about unspecified “MRP polls… over the last few weeks” that supposedly give the Lib Dems a ton of seats.

When Ridge points out yesterday’s MRP had them in 4th on 12%, Davey flounders: “No, no, I’m talking about seats… where you get the vote share of 12%… er into seats.”

Ridge snaps back: “I know what an MRP poll is. That was an MRP poll.”

Davey ends up admitting he can’t name specifics, just “a lot of MRP polls… giving us an increasing number of seats.”

I felt embarrassed for him 😂

There’s not a single poll on this planet that puts Ed Davey anywhere near official opposition, and he knows it. That’s why he couldn’t name one when Sophy pressed him.

That man lives in his own little world 😂🙃

Is the Government welcoming someone with a fraud conviction into the Cabinet?

What do you think is the ONE thing that Andy Burnham stands for?

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Burnham had no mandate. He must call a general election.

[Chris Rose @ArchRose90]

Louise Haigh is now back in government.

In 2014, she was convicted of fraud. If Andy Burnham attacks Reform UK whilst morally grandstanding, just remind him of this decision.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

This may be the most delusional post in the history of this platform.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

So the rules are Reform MPs - fearing for their lives - cannot even insinuate that the brutal murder of their colleague may have been a targeted attack - even when it was obvious from the start.

But the Labour Home Secretary, PM, incoming PM, Police, the BBC and entire establishment media can instantly speculate wildly and loudly about a “right wing” terrorist plot on an Islamic event -

only for the it to be proven totally false.

This is Britain in 2026.

This is why Britain needs REFORM.

[Cllr. John Baker @JohnReformUK]

@Ed_Miliband Lower bills? 🤡

[Cllr. John Baker @JohnReformUK]

@JonathanBrash You are the bin!

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Shabana Mahmood has misled Parliament.

She falsely claimed there was an attempted terror attack on an Islamic event and police arrests “undoubtedly saved lives”.

Now the police say they “found no evidence to support anyone being charged with any offences linked to the alleged threat.”

Where is the condemnation from the BBC and media establishment for “speculating”?

Mahmood is a disgrace and must resign.

[Higgy @higgyboson]

The more you look at this the worse it gets.

Here's the Home Secretary actually saying the 12 people arrested last week, (and now released without charge), were going to KILL people.

She labelled them as determined terrorists and murderers with absolutely no evidence whatsoever to back up her claim.

It's absolutely disgusting.

She should not only lose her job, she should be arrested for stirring up hatred and falsely accusing citizens of being dangerous criminals.

Can it get any worse than this?

[Alex Armstrong @Alexarmstrong]

“undoubtedly saved lives”

I’m extremely worried as to what is going on in the Home Office.

Twice, in a week, the most senior politicians in our country are looking stupid because they’ve shared police misinformation, or have made it up themselves.

Spreading misinformation to millions of people, without apology, whilst you hold high office should be a breach of ministerial code.
