Elections are won in polling stations, not on X. Three by-elections, three winners, and Reform wasn't one of them. The gap between online noise and real votes is becoming impossible to ignore. 🇬🇧🔵

Thank you, Lilian. Many felt politically homeless, but Kemi's leadership is bringing people back to the Conservative family. Listening, learning and rebuilding trust is how we move forward. 🔵🇬🇧

Seriously, who the bloody hell does this unelected Reform mouthpiece think he is? No mandate, no office, no authority yet he's in Washington talking about 'saving Britain' as if he speaks for 68 million people. He speaks for himself, not the United Kingdom."

To every former Conservative who left for Reform: come home. The Conservative Party is your political family, and under Kemi Badenoch we have the strongest leader in British politics today. She is leading the fight for Conservative values, rebuilding our party, and offering a serious alternative government for the United Kingdom. Reform may offer protest, but Conservatives offer leadership, experience and a path back to government. Come home. Help rebuild. The future is Conservative. 💙🇬🇧

THE LADY'S NOT FOR TURNING — AND NEITHER ARE WE.

I've not met a Conservative who wants anything to do with Farage or Reform. We are Conservatives. We believe in Conservative values. Reform is not a Conservative party, and pretending otherwise won't make it true.

FROM POLL LEADER TO SERIAL LOSER

Polls measure mood. Elections measure reality. Reform can top every voting intention poll they like, but if they keep losing by-elections, voters are sending a very different message. Three losses already and Marketfield looking like it could make it four.

Mr Musk. Britain doesn't need saving by billionaires or slogans. It needs healing, unity and serious leadership. For me, that's the Conservatives under Kemi Badenoch.

1979 Changed Britain. 2029 Can Too.

Sometimes life reminds you that family comes before politics, social media, and everything else. I stepped away to deal with some important family matters, and I'm pleased to say they're now resolved. With that chapter behind me, I'm returning to X

Zia Yusuf seems to have a permanent grievance addiction. Every day is an emergency, every critic is an enemy, and every headline is apparently the end of Britain Exhausting stuff.

Reform UK has become a party driven by grievance, division and misinformation. In a democratic society, political parties must be free to express their views, but they must also be accountable. Where there is evidence that individuals have broken the law whether through hate speech, intimidation, electoral offences or other criminal conduct those matters should be investigated thoroughly and independently by the appropriate authorities. No political party or politician should be above the law.

Nigel Farage has spent years claiming he’s the future of British politics. But if Reform loses Makerfield and racks up four consecutive by-election defeats, the reality becomes unavoidable: A movement powered by outrage, social media clips and personality politics is colliding with the real world of elections. Protest is easy. Government is hard. Shouting is easy. Building is hard. Being angry at Westminster is easy. Replacing it is another matter entirely. At some point the question stops being: “Why are people angry?” and becomes: “Why aren’t voters trusting you with power?”

Calling everyone you disagree with a liberal masquerading as a Conservative” just proves you don’t actually understand conservatism. Conservatism is about responsibility, seriousness, institutions and governing a country not permanent rage, grievance politics and treating Westminster like a YouTube comment section. The loudest people in politics today mistake noise for principle and chaos for strength. Britain deserves better than that.

Reform is damaging British politics by elevating outrage, grievance and controversy above seriousness, standards and responsibility. A protest vote is one thing. Handing a microphone and potential parliamentary power to people with inflammatory histories or deeply divisive rhetoric is another entirely. The Mother of Parliaments should represent the best of public life not become a dumping ground for whoever can shout the loudest on social media or generate the most anger online. Most British people, whatever their politics, still believe in basic decency, tolerance, professionalism and respecting others even when we disagree. The danger comes when politics rewards those who deliberately undermine those values for applause, clicks and culture war theatrics.

Anyone seeking to sit in Parliament should be capable of representing every constituent fairly and respectfully, regardless of lifestyle, background or beliefs. If the allegations around Robert Kenyon’s past comments are accurate, many voters will reasonably question whether he meets that standard.
