Oh my ... this is in The Telegraph!

Good Lord!

That's almost worthy of the Daily Fail.

From reading some of his other articles, he does seem to have (deliberately?) fallen down the trap of equating support for ending the horrors in Palestine to being pro-Hamas and antisemitic.Β

Ouch !

In Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, the party took Peter Bone’s former seat, which he had held with a majority of more than 18,000

In Kingswood, South Gloucestershire, Labour overturned a 11,220 Conservative majority to win Chris Skidmore’s former seat

the swing from the Conservatives to Labour in Wellingborough was the second biggest in any post-war election

It's hilarious watching the various grifters from the Tories and Reform (and their media lapdogs) trying to spin this in a positive way.

Reform are congratulating themselves, but I suspect they may be like the Lib Dems in past years: Often making extremely (relatively) good showings at by elections, but their voters returning to their habitual parties, come the GE.

I just pray that, for once, people will give up the urge to vote for a party that has no chance of winning the seat, and concentrate on the more important task of ridding the country of these lying, cheating, grifting, scumbags.

Oh, you noticed that I'm not too impressed with the tories?

hehe ... yeah, I hear you ! It's got to the point now where everything the Tories say and do makes me shout at the radio!

So much in-fighting, posturing, fake-outrage, stoking the culture wars, offering a few pennies tax relief, and a complete absence of common sense and compassion.

When they could be talking about improving the NHS waiting lists and ambulance response times, investing in the next gen of nurses and doctors, repairing the crumbling schools, clearing the HUGE backlogs in immigration and the courts, bringing down the prices of healthy foods in 'desert' areas ...

... so many areas urgently need to be tackled, they are clearly setting up Labour to fail when they inherit this mess. 🤦Β 

In the coming months, I wonder if we might see an unholy alliance, something like: Truss + Farage + Tice + ... ? Johnson ? Galloway ??

And as for the likes of Truss, Johnson, JRM and Gbeebies endorsing that monster (monster loser) Trump ?! 😵‍💫 🤪Β
