When someone asks you to choose between two extremes, the best option is usually to refuse to answer the question.
Polanski's "Greens" and Nigel's Reform are both God awful, and are collectively one of the most significant threats to 21st century Britain.
Do not embolden them.
This would be simply unforgiveable.
With an aggressive Kremlin and an unstable White House, Starmer must show leadership.
We are calling for the use of defence bonds to raise £20bn to end this stagnation.
@PolitlcsUK When confronted about having no respect for Henry's grieving family.
Farage just laughs - he's turned the tragic death of a teenager into a pantomime.
Farage has exploited a tragedy, AGAINST the wishes of the victim's family, for his own political gain.
In calling for "pure cold rage" he's fuelled the fire and played a role in inciting these riots. Farage is a sad excuse of a "man", who makes a living by destabilising Britain.
Protesters - chanting 'Henry, Henry' - have thrown bottles, bricks and wheelie bins in clashes with riot police, after a row broke out over the murder of Henry Nowak

The murder of Henry Nowak was an appalling case of police incompetence.
Those officers who arrested an innocent young man as he bled out must face severe consequences, and we need to investigate and address the systematic failures which led to this happening.
Belarus is the only country in Europe with the same voting system as us. Hardly a ringing endorsement. It is quite simply out of date and not fit for purpose.
The government should seize the opportunity in the Rep of the People Bill to actually fix our politics
🚨 NEW: Reform UK’s Makerfield candidate Robert Kenyon previously said Russia was “within its rights” to invade Crimea
“Russia are well within their rights to do what they have done as we did with the Falklands”
ANNOUNCED: Tanvir Ahmad is the Liberal Democrat candidate for the Arbroath and
Broughty Ferry by-election.
Be it Labour in Westminster or the SNP in Holyrood, people have been let down by the parties in power. Tanvir will fight to deliver change with fairness at its heart. 🔶
The immigration minister couldn't say how tall the London Eye is — yet it's a question migrants must answer to settle in Britain.
Don Foster, Lib Dem peer and chair of the Justice and Home Affairs Committee, challenged him on it.
Right wing, self proclaimed "anti-immigration" parties love to deny the science, reject climate action, and take bribes from polluters.
But what these parties don't tell you is that climate change will be the one of the biggest causes of irregular migration in human history.
A strong and united European climate effort is needed, one that not only does its part, but applies sufficient pressure on to China and the USA to pull their weight, and aids the efforts of less developed nations which are bound to be most affected by the climate catastrophe.
The UK cannot hope to make any impact by reducing its emissions alone, we contribute to less than 1% of global emissions.
That's why we must unite with our like-minded neighbours in Europe if we are to change the disturbing trajectory the world is getting pulled into.
HS2 is one of the biggest national embarrassments of recent times and reflects an extremely flawed system that makes it extremely expensive, slow, and difficult for Britain to get anything built. Our planning system is holding our country back, and is preventing economic growth.
