Going to say it again. If you disagree with Restore and their politics, defeat them at the ballot box. Do not intimidate their canvassers.
This is what our team is facing as they try to campaign for Restore Britain in Holborn and St Pancras today. It is disgraceful.

Rate disagreement with this fine chap. LDs are essentially Labour voters (something which the commentariat forgets). Both parties’ voters are same cohort - LD voters older, in SE (not SW) and homeowning which is Labour *new core vote too*. BUT yes they’re ignoring the Centre Bloc
If Powell gets her way, I think there's a very serious risk that "A vote for Ed Davey and his Increasingly Tiresome Nonsense is a vote for enabling a left-wing freak show" starts to become a viable talking point in Southern Tory-Lib Dem marginals. Of which there are quite a few.

When the answer is in the question...
So why not build some houses they can live in, rather than social housing for client voters?

Let us walk the woods as feral possibility space. Let us walk the woods in hope of strange sights, fantastical encounters. Stories we can tell to those we love as an intimate folklore of hope that wonder is still abroad. That we still have places of constant magic. – #DAKilroy

This is a shockingly popular tweet. Must be nice about competent people more often.
What makes Andrew Neil so much better than other political journalists and interviewers? He's more interested in the facts than the politicians, and bothers to know them.

If he keeps twitting this, maybe you won't notice that he craves the respect of Putin and Xi.

Infuriatingly patronising from @lisanandy. We ARE living within our sodding means. If we don't, we become broke and homeless. The ONLY people not living within their means are our bloody government! You just keep spending more and taxing more. YOU live within YOUR means ffs.
‘We have to live within our means.’ Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport Lisa Nandy MP lays out what the Chancellor will aim to do in the upcoming budget.

Realised that the cost of claiming £70 fee from the BBC to have appeared on The Moral Maze is greater than receiving it. Too many forms, too much time.

"Britain’s foreign secretary, Ed Miliband, is to indicate he will put the climate crisis and overseas development at the heart of UK international relations ..." - @guardian, July 2026 Guess no-one has told Miliband that Iran's biggest industry is fossil fuels...

If you think Le Pen's Front National will end this party, I have some disappointing news for you. They seriously demand a lower retirement age. Yep, you read that right. Can we please stop calling them "far-right"? Wouldn't national socialists be more appropriate?
Instead of implementing long-overdue reforms to its pension system and absurd state spending, France keeps demanding Eurobonds, again this week. If you think about that, Eurobonds would mean Germany financing lavish French pensions. Look at the differences between the French and German pension systems. Do the French seriously expect Germans to work longer and receive much lower pensions to finance smiling French retirees? The other option given France's lack of reforms is the ECB monetizing French debt, which would debase the euro and make all savers and future retirees in the eurozone poorer.

It will never stop being astounding that a bunch of men said “we are women!” and a bunch of people, including those in government, said “ok!” and then demonized any woman who said “well this is obviously bullsh-t.”
