    The format was dreadful. Need to remove the audience and focus on 3 policy areas, or if you want to focus on 5-6 needs to be at least 1h30-2h, but nobody honestly wants that.

     

    Did Starmer actually give a direct answer? Besides confirming that given a choice he’d choose for his family to die. He was given plenty of opportunities to reject the £2000 additional tax assertion, and only at the 16th time of asking did he tiptoe around the edges to say it wasn’t the case. Why not just put it to bed at the first time of asking? 
     

    Neither fit to hold the office.

    I think the broadcasters don’t want to agree to splitting the questions as they all want to ask about the same issues. In 2010 they did split it but never since.

     Carole Ann Ford is alive. As is Waris Hussein, though he's been a bit frail of late.

    Doctor who directors seem to have a good lifespan - multiple ones from the early years still alive. 
     

    While she was not an original cast member Maureen O’Brien is still around of course as well

    Get it into your skull that not everyone in the UK is a fucking Zionist.

    But the media and both major political parties are.

     

    And what do anti Zionist’s want to happen? The Jews of Israel to have to return to Europe?

    I think a lot of people told him to stand.

     

    Of course, those were the voices in his head saying "Nige, you could actually win a seat, the Tories are in wipeout mode". It is simply self-advancement, self interest. 

     

    A man who blames absolutely every ill the UK is suffering on immigration. Unfortunately, he has been handed that platform by a Government who has let it get out of control, but it is a ridiculous one issue party. First it was the EU, then Brexit wasn't done properly, now this. 

     

    He's simply the National Front/BNP representative of today. As bad as Galloway.

     

    Forget the other issues about GB News etc, that is the real story here.

    Come the next election he will probably be leader of the opposition having either taken over the Tories or reform having eclipsed the Tories. 

     

    And my bold prediction is he will be PM sometime in the next 15 years. It just feels inevitable just like how Boris felt inevitable for so long.

    100% it's connected in some way. Said here previosly that it would be interesting to see if GB News falls away either going online a la Talk TV or all together after July as I suspect Ofcom will finally get their finger out of their arse from July.

    Polling shows Labour is winning among GB News viewers.

    YouGov reckons Labour on 422, Tories on 140; a working majority of 194. That’s bigger than Blair’s, and the biggest since Baldwin’s 100 years ago.

     

    It reckons losses include cabinet ministers Jeremy C-hunt, Corinne Shapps, Penny Dreadful, Alex Chalk, Gillian Fuckinggood-Job, Victoria Prentis, David Davies and Johnny Mercer. BrexitHardManSteve Baker, Bin Afolami and Lee Rowley also in trouble.

    Steve Baker’s seat is even described as Safe for Labour because Emma Reynolds majority could be that big there

    Keir Starmer refuses to take part in the BBC debate with all 7 parties scheduled for 7th June.
     

    He will do a head to head with the Prime Minister on 26th June and a Question Time special on 20th June.

     

    BBC trailing the 7th June debate as ‘party leaders’, so ball firmly back in their court as to whether they empty chair him or loosen it to allow a party representative instead.

    Penny Mourdant to represent the Tories.

    MRP projection for Clacton if Farage runs puts him on 37% with the Tories second on 27%. 
     

    If Farage runs it’s game over for the Tories and brace for electoral wipeout.

    More likely through the Tories did seem to benefit more than Labour in 2015 when UKIP got 12.6%.

    Farage to make an ‘emergency general election announcement’ at 4pm. Can only presume he’s donning his flip flops and has now decided to stand himself and will resume leadership of Reform. He couldn’t possibly see all that debate airtime up for grabs and let it slip by, could he?

     

    Clacton is looking for a candidate after their current one was embroiled in an antisemitism scandal. 

    Clacton is probably the perfect seat for him if he does want to win. Demographicly and politically it all fits for several reasons.
