    When the dust is settled I wonder if anyone will add up the total number of Reform voters versus the number of fools who gave Labour the general election ?

    Wouldn’t it be weird if Farage – sitting as a back bencher – is a likely next PM … but if reform is wise – they shouldn’t bother being in the commons at all ….

    Well it certainly won’t be champagne at the BBC. More likely whisky and a revolver .

      Saw this joke a week ago.

      The cabinet gave Starmer a revolver and a bottle of whisky.

      Minutes later they heard a shot from Kier’s private chambers and he walked back to his cabinet meeting.

      What happened ?, Lammy asked.

      Two Tier -“Oh, I shot an aide !”

    I’ll bet a fiver that Starmer will not resign even if Liebour loose every LA seat. He’s been told by his Puppet-Masters to just hang-on-in-there whatever happens. The reality is, they’ll not find another similar stooge that will do an equally good job of destroying the country as Sir K is……………

    It will take an uprising by the right-minded element of the public to deal with Starmer’s own Ceaușescu moment.

      French police have charged a taxi driver with stealing luggage and cash from UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy and his wife Nicola Green.

      The driver allegedly sped off with the couple’s luggage after a row over a fare for the 360-mile journey from Forli, in Italy, to the French ski resort of Flaine, in Haute-Savoie.

    BBC ELECTION COVERAGE PICKS UP SPEED……..

    In normal circumstances I wouldn’t be able to cope with BBC “World at one” especially as Jonny” not very bright” Dimond is very annoying. That said i am so pleased i listened to Jonny interview Hillary Benn, what side splitting fun, Jonny gave son of “bonkers” Tony Benn an easy ride interview and it seemed to me that Hillary probably had a bet with a mate , to see just how many times he could say the word serious.
    Keir Starmer is a serious man blah,blah, serious politician, blah,blah serious meetings, blah ,blah, serious world crisis only serious Starmer can solve….seriously.

    Marvellous as poor Hillary had no clue what has happened since the polls opened.
    Great stuff BBC, haven’t laughed so much for years.

    Yes friend – Hilary is looking at his Peerage when the number 10 bunker changes management ….. then the chairman of Reform did a timid defence against Jonnie thr druggie who claimed that Reform is ‘hated ‘ – and used that several times – -in reference to the ‘surprise’ that the socialist republic of third world hackney now has a Green mayor ….. presumably a Muslim terrorist ….. as if Hackney could ever be reform …..

    I was angry that the reform dolt didn’t bite and tell Jonnie the BBC is on the list for ‘reform ‘….. sell it for £10 billion – or whatever Amazon has as short change ….

    In under 3 minutes Andrew Lawrence sums up the state of the nation after the elections. He’s angry, he’s seething, he’s incandescent, and he’s not holding back.
    The BBC gets a well-deserved bashing too.

    Transcript here, video below:

    We’ve had over a decade of vile glib sneering faux liberal sanctimony. Every decent, honest, hardworking person who stood up and expressed concern about mass uncontrolled immigration. Every decent, honest person who stood up and said DEI is a poison that will destroy us culturally and economically. Every voice that spoke out against the relentless scamming of our benefit system and the endless abuse of the taxpayer. Every one of these people who dared to speak the truth out loud was relentlessly smeared and abused as a bigot or a racist or a sexist or an Islamophobe; dismissed as ignorant and evil. Over a decade of pompous, condescending, vindictive woke leftists cancelling anyone who expressed views they disagreed with. Destroying people’s careers, people’s lives over a difference of opinion, targeting their families, doxing them online, and yet somehow imagining that they’re the good guys, that they occupy a position of moral and intellectual superiority.

    Well, now their time is up. Up and down the country yesterday, British people turned up at polling stations to show the arrogant faux liberal woke left establishment exactly what they thought of them. It was an utter humiliation, an utter rejection of open borders globalism, a rejection of DEI, a rejection of big government and crippling taxes, a rejection of the BBC and Channel 4 commentators, comedians, and so-called experts who’ve spent over a decade incontinently dismissing us all as hate-filled stupid bigots; a rejection of university indoctrinated far-left activists aggressively trying to impose their unhinged poisonous agenda on us all. The British public have seen these people for what they are. Self serving parasites, traitors, people who hate this country for no other reason than it’s the fashionable thing to do and might help them in their careers. These people are finished.

    Watch them all slowly start to distance themselves from their disgusting behavior of recent years. Watch them shift away from the far-left. Watch them chase popularity by starting to echo the concerns the rest of us have been speaking about for years, only to be attacked and professionally and personally damaged for our honesty. We will never get an apology from these people for the names they’ve called us, the smears, the lies, the abuse. They’ll gaslight at every turn. They’ll pretend none of it ever happened. They’re going to squirm shamelessly and it’s going to be tremendously entertaining to witness.

    Seen a lot of stuff on the www today – it is interesting that Labour types still think they won the last election – that they had a mandate …
    But the reality was that by the weird way first past the post works – the won because the right either didn’t bother turning out – or voted in such a way that the Tory / reform vote split leaving a Labour MP …
    This election is a reset of what should – with large numbers of people turning out for local elections to voice their disgust over the uniparty and what it has done to us ….

    I’d love to hear someone voice their disgust over above Truth – but the blob won’t admit it .

    One of the ways the BBC is playing down the achievement of Reform is to say the results are ‘as expected ‘ or not quite as good as they expected … which is a very soviet way of trying to pollute the water …..

    Must be time to claim there are ‘splits ‘ and ‘disagreements ‘

    Fedup- Be faair to the The BBC. They are mentioning that Reform took part in
    the Elections. And they
    do have Reform
    slightly ahead of the other parties.
    OK the graph of the
    size of each party is
    not quite mathematically correct.
    But please remember that the graphic designer,
    probably had to tick the right boxes to get his, hers, or its

      Foscari –

      I am feeling far more pleased ( happier – which I don’t normally do ) than I thought I would …i ll be interested to see – when all the results (136 councils ?) are in – how close to the poll projections they turn out to be .

      There is so much to ‘ unpack ‘- particularly those places across the countries which have been Labour for ever …

      Will the Starmer regime conceive that the green crap and the invasion will kill any party – red or blue …. ?

      It must be a real challenge for the BBC news editorial people to dismiss the results – and target Farage further …. No one gave a damn about the £5 million he accepted before becoming an MP – but on they go about it …

      Im not an unquestioning fan of Farage – but just look at what he is achieving ….. all we need now is President Trump to which him well and TTK will hopefully fall off his throne …..

      Theres only 3 ways for Labour to keep power – cheat – end the green crap – stop the invasion – and of those 3 – only the first applies – eg cancelling elections …

      As for the TTK replacement – do an Alec Douglas Home ?

      Anyway – cheers to the first cheap merlot ….

      And to day – when the real general election has been re run – British voters have shown their real views – with a turn out far above the usual local election numbers…

      But as Farage has said – let’s hope TTK is there for the next election …
