It's noise that will never happen.

Poor Jeff would be forced to put the ticket prices up again...

Remember, today is the last day to register to vote.
Unless you're voting Conservative, then there's a special day tomorrow just for you. Do it then.

He's also said that there's a very powerful argument for scrapping the 2 child limit. It'll be gone in the first budget I reckon

Starmer getting pulled apart on the LBC Phone in. Being in a shadow cabinet but not confirming that would have meant he'd have been in the cabinet if Labour was elected in 2017 or 2019 isn't a good look. It's shouldn't be hard for him to say that he disagreed with a number of policies but would have served to do his best for the country.
Also the Council Tax question keeps getting brought up. Surely he can say that it is up to local councils to set the bills for the residents but he will ensure that if they do it can't go above the current 5% cap without a local referendum?

He had a much better 2nd half hour. He also had words of praise for Sunak at the end too which (for me) is welcome to show that no matter what they disagree on, there are matters that they do and he can respect him and give credit as such.

Looking well.

Also they don't know what 'supermajority' means.

 

[Del Woppio]

Fuck me he looks like absolute shit

This evening, the snake oil salesman will be charging the good people of Clacton £3.41 each to hear him speak at the Princes Theatre in the town.
Grifters gotta grift...

 

[Keef]

Strange price to be charging tbh, is the equivalent of 400 Russian roubles if anyone is wondering

Reform plc getting a bit annoyed that some of their candidates are accused of racist stuff on social media, they’ve issued this press release, it’s always someone’s else’s fault.

 

[lemonjelly]

who would have thought an individual related to boris would be dodgy?

FWIW I think the Tories will get 150 or so

They also have Nigel Fucknuckle winning in Clacton

Amateurish scenes with Reform, I can't believe that would happen.

He probably will, he's literally up against the vicar from Bread.

He'll then spend the 5th of July being annoyed that he actually has to be an MP and it involves some work.
