Democratic politics will not serve the people when politicians owe their place and their futures to one or two billionaires.
A serious democratic society simply cannot allow this.

That's £72 million from just two men. (Both, until lately, based overseas).

The average UK earner (full-time) would have to work for over 1,800 years to raise that much.

It's a nuclear strike on any pretence at the equality of political power
Harborne has given Reform £36 million to match Delo's £36 million. The Telegraph describes it as a "show of force" from Reform's donors.

The two men's £72 million is greater than all of the spending by all political parties on the 2024 GE

It takes an astonishing level of delusional hypocrisy to think that you are defending your nation whilst assaulting its public servants, and attacking brave volunteers keeping our coasts safe for all.

There's nothing patriotic about thuggery.

Police seek to identify protesters behind Portsmouth anti-migrant disorder
Sarah Jones told MPs the violence sparked by the arrival of 120 migrants in a single dinghy was "intimidating and thuggish".

Truly wild to have lived through moral panics about teenagers wearing hoodies and Muslim women wearing the head dress to now experience 'but is a large group of organised far right activists in balaclavas really that scary'
What a ridiculous question. Once again the BBC drives a nail into it's own coffin.

The council has opened its consultation on the tourism levy - if like me, you think Highland taxpayers should be automatically exempt from paying this, please tell the council what you think.

We can still make this proposal better.

Extreme right-wing protesters are in a stand-off with the RNLI in Portsmouth. The group, led by Danny Tommo, are waist-deep in the sea and threatening to go "under the water" if police try to arrest them. Six lifeboats monitoring. Volunteer rescuers giving up their evening for this.

Blackshirts on the streets of Britain should trigger alarm bells for all of us.

We have multiple examples *in my lifetime* of how allowing masked organisations to thrive heads to horrible places.

The Scottish opposition parties really need to be having more fun with the Peter Murrell story. A lot less “comparing it to organised crime” and a lot more “a bald man bought two expensive hair dryers and his wife didn’t wonder where they came from?”

Liberal Democrats know our future is at the heart of Europe, and we have a credible plan to get there.

It starts with a UK-EU Customs Union.

What an awful human being.
Reform's candidate Robert Kenyon said abortion was a "cowardly act of murder" and implied that people falsely claimed to have been raped

He said: “Don’t dole out the ‘what if someone is raped by their brother’ arguement... don’t want babies? Use contreception! [sic]”

Replace trans in the second sentence with black, or disabled, or old, and try defending it.

Why is it different for trans people?
Organisations which also want to remain trans-inclusive need to receive support on how to do so within the law. In a similar way, those that wish to exclude trans men and women from their spaces also need to know how to do so without breaching individual rights to privacy. (6/7)

Though smaller than last year, the Unite the Kingdom march over the weekend was still sickening. The resurgence of out-and-out racism in the UK, from demands for remigration of British Asians to Antisemitic slurs on placards at both demonstrations, demands we meet this moment.
