Vox populi more sensible than many well-paid commentators.
Although the Conservative conference has featured speculation the party could win the next election, just 10% of Britons currently see Kemi Badenoch as the most likely victor of the next general election
Andy Burnham: 37%
Nigel Farage: 13%
Kemi Badenoch: 10%
Someone else: 9%

Another kickback for the Rich. No wonder conservative members there were ecstatic.
BREAKING Kemi Badenoch says no IHT to be paid on family homes. Huge standing ovation. Couples can leave an additional £1m tax free. It will halve families paying IHT. Watch now on @GBNEWS

But as the experts tell us, few are very likely to go back. She is suffering from the same delusion as Starmer. And like Starmer, she will lose those to her left.
Kemi Badenoch appeals to Tories who left the party for Reform UK to 'come home'
'Do you know who else deserves better? Reform voters. Many of them are our people. We let them down and we want them to come back home. They deserve better than Reform politicians
'A year ago those Reform politicians were measuring up the curtains of Number 10. Now, some of them are measuring up the curtains of their prison cells
'Just when you thought Reform couldn't get any weirder there's a convicted fraudster who calls himself Posh George and Nigel Farage 'daddy'
'For those who say unite the right we are not uniting with that. People deserve better'

Not even billionaires?
“Nobody will ever pay inheritance tax on their family home,” promises Kemi Badenoch
On top of that, couples will be able to leave an additional £1m tax free and there will also be no stamp duty when homes are bought, she adds

I wrote this in June 2024, but I think my historical comparison still holds especially now Badenoch is determined to ‘unite the right’ while Reform is doing somewhat better than simply clinging on. spectator.com/article/does-t…

I’m ‘considering’ going to the gym this morning, but it’s a bit cold and I’m feeling a bit lazy so I actually won’t.
The polls are looking very positive for Labour. With up to 43% of voters, according to one poll, considering voting Labour.
This is phenominal. If we continue to focus on the policies that matter to the British people we can go on to win big again.

There used to be many more of these near Wythenshawe hospital the last time my dad was there in 2025. Now there’s just this solitary sorry specimen.

Why earth are they interviewing Hislop?
"For the time being, the Labour Party seems thrilled"
Ian Hislop assesses whether the Labour Party changing leader from Keir Starmer for Andy Burnham has been a success: "You had all these people saying, 'it's not Keir!'"

Steven Fielding retweeted
As well as being a politician and highly successful novelist, don't forget Jeffrey Archer was a pretty nasty fraudster - like his father. In short, he was a crook. Many broadcasters - some who never dared ask him any tough questions - will gloss over that today.

I’ve had to read a few Archer novels and they are excruciatingly bad. But they do give us clues as to how awful he was.
