It seems to have started earlier than I expected. To win seats from ReformUK in Thurrock of all places, is impressive. Count Binface must be optimistic!

Labour win Thurrock council seats after Reform UK resigna...

Two Reform councillors quit weeks after being elected, triggering the by-elections.

Count Binface! Gotta love Brit politics.😂

Wonder if he will be allowed to wear the bin in the EU parliament after the Brentry?

The Brentricide I think you mean? Britain is toast. Their only hopes are Musk, Robinson, Lowe. Fingers crossed sanity will prevail.

Don't you worry, Brits ar e sane and sanity will prevail. Fraudsters and grifters will never see office. And Musk isn't British by the way, just a long distance racist.

Fortunately, that is very unlikely to happen. The British people have more sense.

Nothing demonstrates how much sense British people have than their recent move of the "Welsh choirboy" from prison to a cushy holiday camp at hospital. So much sense😅

Why do you pretend to be American? Are you ashamed of being a Brit?

I have never claimed to be any nationality, nor pretended to be any nationality. My nationality is of zero relevance to this or any thread. I believe the forum is open to members of any nationality?

Should we get back to the discussion at hand?

Whilst I agree with the sentiment that nationality has zero relevance it is unlikely that a citizen of Kazakhstan would have any real interest in a Welsh "choir boy."

That would depend on whether the Kazakhi had an interest in leftoid state disinformation.

The Kazakh would need to prove "leftoid state disinformation" (whatever that may be) for it to be of any relevance.

So you genuinely consider Rudakubana is best described as a "Welsh choirboy" ?

Honest posters will accept that was a particularly misleading statement by a government notorious for double standards and lying.

Please point out where the government said he was a Welsh choirboy. You won't be able to, because they didn't.

It was the press who mentioned it after interviews with his neighbours. Nothing to do with the government, no need to tell lies.

I'm a little disappointed the Reform/Restore crowd are not participating in this thread! Maybe they've accepted that it's all over?

Enjoy it whilst it lasts. The UK is currently borrowing money to pay for its debt interest of £120bn per year and income tax intake is lower than welfare payouts. It's easy to spend other peoples money - it takes no skill whatsoever. Lets see how the bounce is doing when he has to slash welfare to pay for it, which will then spark the next round of cats in a sack infighting before the anti Burnham stories are then leaked to the press as grumpy leftists are unable to comprehend the fact that the UK cannot print endless money to buy peoples votes.

The start of the end of Starmer was scrapping winter fuel allowance and how he dealt with Southport. It won't be too long before Burnham has his equivalent moments and at some point he is going to have to face some difficult questions which he has been too scared to face so far.

A rather paltry showing from Reform. The Burnham bounce continues.

The bounce continues? The calls for a General Election seemed to have stopped!
