🚨 NEW: The BBC has revealed Russia has been setting up fake far-right and Islamist groups in the UK to stoke division Operatives paid people to vandalise mosques, spread extremist propaganda and inflame tensions after the Southport riots

Politics isn’t working for places like Makerfield. On Thursday, people here have the chance to write a new script. Vote hope. Vote @AndyBurnhamGM.

Really really odd answer. Nigel Farage suggests in a couple of years there might be someone better to be PM. That’s quite possibly before the next election.

Labour’s reforms to driving test bookings already having an impact 👇

When you're a moron, good news is in fact bad news and licensing laws should not exist.

When will Nigel Farage come clean about is secret £5milllion "gift"?

Nothing missing from this quote, @ZiaYusufUK.

Makerfield By-Election Update: survation.com/makerfield-by-… Survation conducted a new poll of the Makerfield constituency. Fieldwork was conducted by telephone among 518 adults in the constituency between 26th May and 1st June 2026. A combination of landline and mobile data were used. Methodology Statement Population Sampled: All residents aged 18 living in the Makerfield parliamentary constituency. Total Sample Size: 518 Data Collection Method: Telephone interview. A combination of landline and mobile data were used. Fieldwork Dates: 26th May – 1st June 2026 Data Weighting: Data were weighted to the profile of all adults in Makerfield constituency aged 18 . Data were weighted by age, sex, ward and 2024 General Election vote. Targets for the weighted data were derived from Office for National Statistics data and the results of the 2024 UK General Election. Margin of Error: Because only a sample of the full population was interviewed, all results are subject to a margin of error. For example, in a question where 50% gave a particular answer, with a sample of 518 it is 95% certain that the “true” value would fall within 4.8 percentage points of the sample result. Headline by-election voting intention - Table V2 (likelihood-weighted, undecided/refused removed, no squeeze): Candidate / Party / Vote share Andy Burnham - Labour 49% Robert Kenyon - Reform UK 39% Rebecca Shepherd - Restore Britain 8% Sarah Wakefield - Green Party 2% Jake Austin - Liberal Democrat 1% Michael Winstanley - Conservative 1% Another party <1% Base: likely voters, factored by likelihood to vote, with undecided and refused voters removed Data tables are available here: cdn.survation.com/wp-content…

In hiding for over a fortnight to swerve any scrutiny over his multitude of illicit donations but finally breaks cover to shit all over the express wishes of Henry Nowak’s family You can set your watch by Farage’s pisswizardry A stain on U.K. politics

This Times cartoon I drew in 2024 on Farage’s response to the Southport stabbings feels topical today...

This reaction tells you everything you need to know about Nigel Farage. #PMQs

Worst political interview in history. On air next: Reform’s Vetting Process… Britain’s Greatest Unsolved Mystery! 📺

This is what this scumbag said when Sarah Everard was kidnapped, raped and murdered by a WHITE police officer. Today, for the killing of Henry Novak by a Brown Sikh man, he calls the British public to "rage".

When someone shows you who they really are, take notice.

The Observer this morning reports a £2.8m unexplained gap in the Brexit Party's 2019 accounts and £7.8m in "other expenditure" with no breakdown. Professor Sam Power calls it "a black hole." The same pattern appears in Reform's 2024 accounts. Richard Tice lent his own party £1.4m through a private investment company. The accounts don't name him. Right of reply was sent to Tice, Reform UK and their auditors CK Partnership. None responded. FOI 046-26 to the Electoral Commission is outstanding. The thread runs from 2019 to now. x.com/i/status/2047561986322… observer.co.uk/news/politics…

"He's sexist, he's sick." "Don't you dare suggest that working-class people hold beliefs like Robert Kenyon!" @MarinaPurkiss calls on @_GeorgeFinch to do the "decent thing" and condemn comments made by Reform's Makerfield candidate. @theJeremyVine | #JeremyVine
