(0536) Morning all … Gates bleah out there so far. Working 5 to 12, 12 to 5 … what a time to be alive! (0707)
12. The Cynical Brit at X
Maybe @reform chasing @RupertLowe10 and @benhabib6 out of the party was a blessing in disguise. Hear me out…
We’ve clung to Reform because we’re desperate. We know the next election is make-or-break for this country—our only real chance to save it. Reform seemed like our best hope, but let’s look at this logically:
1. @Nigel_Farage didn’t even want to represent Reform—he was more interested in making money in America until he saw how much support the party was gaining.
2. They used Hope Not Hate to vet applicants.
3.They turned on @benhabib6 when he dared to speak uncomfortable truths about the party.
4. Farage openly stated he does not support mass deportations.
5. They berated Tommy Robinson and ignored the disgraceful treatment and political persecution he has faced.
6. @TiceRichard is best mates with Matt Hancock. @IsabelOakeshott , Tice’s wife, who smirked when questioned about Lowe having the whip removed, co-wrote Matt Hancock’s book, Pandemic Diaries.
7. They support and encourage the Ukraine war.
8. Now, they’ve turned on @RupertLowe10 for speaking more uncomfortable truths. Reform and Farage were never the answer. It’s time for a real, serious political party—one that is for the people, led by capable, reliable, honest, and respectable politicians.
I truly hope @benhabib6 and @RupertLowe10 form their own party with a proper democratic structure and a real plan, unlike Reform. Your supporters are waiting for you, Lowe and Habib. ❤️🇬🇧
Meanwhile, Ryan Fellows on X:
“A. Bridgen, the ex MP, approached Nigel Farage at the height of the pandemic to give him facts on the vaccine, and he was told he shouldn’t be talking about that, so i don’t trust Farage at all and i am glad they exposed themselves.”
JH: Anyone heard the expression “Unherdable Cats”? Someone should maybe run a blog called that.
11. On Tina Peters
Mike Engleman: ”The real crime being committed in Colorado is that 70 year old Gold Star mom, Tina Peters may die in prison from abuse for actually doing her job, while Jena Griswold won’t be prosecuted for letting voting machine passwords go unsecure for months!”
10. On Farage
Higgy: “Two weeks ago I said that Nigel Farage really didn’t have it in him to carry Reform through to the next General Election. He just doesn’t seem interested. His lacklustre appearances are uninspiring and his refusal to agree to mass deportations of illegals is bizarre.”
9. Castro and Carney
The Architect: “Watching Trudeau just walk off into the sunset after ten years orchestrating the controlled demolition of Canada and profiting personally from it makes me sick. The guy needs to be in jail.”
Douglas Macgregor: “Incoming Canadian PM Mark Carney linked directly to Ghislaine Maxwell.”
Plus Dan Mazier: “Canada now has a Prime Minister who does not have a seat in Parliament, has never held elected office, and refuses to disclose his financial interests.”
Danielle herself: “At a time when we are facing unprecedented economic challenges with our largest trading partner, Canada deserves and needs a leader with a mandate from Canadians. New Liberal Leader.”
@MarkJCarney needs to put Canada first and call an election immediately.
8. Wolf on X
Few voters know how Parliament works. There is a useful weapon for backbenchers called Written Questions that the government has to answer. It’s how @RupertLowe10 finds all the stats he shares with us.
Guess how many Reform MPs have submitted? Lowe: 965 Tice: 120 Farage: 20
Egregious crime against parliament from Rupert … elected by his constituency, does his job, does not take a salary. Unforgivable, working for the indigenous.
7. Mr. Sensible1 on X
We simply cannot let this play out like they did with Enoch Powell! Suddenly farage has become Edward Heath. Powell’s popularity among the public complicated the narrative. In the days following the speech, thousands of working-class supporters, including dockers and meat porters, marched in London and Wolverhampton to protest his sacking, chanting slogans like “We want Enoch!”
Polls suggested significant public backing for his views on immigration, with some estimating that up to 74% of Britons agreed with his stance at the time. This groundswell of support fueled the perception among his allies that the Conservative elite, uncomfortable with his populist appeal and uncompromising style, seized the opportunity to neutralize him.
Michael Heseltine later remarked that had Powell stood for party leadership or even prime ministership in the wake of the speech, he might have won “by a landslide,” underscoring the disconnect between the party establishment and the public.

This tuber is new to me. All about subjects and citizens. | https://youtu.be/hKIA7PvuhbE?si=elx9XIl78twV7ACZ
Another new tuber, I watched a few of his short and to the point offerings. He makes a very good case for a meat based diet. | https://youtu.be/8i3dpylBOwc?si=9K04nsIGaYxgK32x

a) Romania has barred far-right frontrunner Calin Georgescu from running in May’s presidential election…
(JH Don’t forget I have a Romanian primary source I posted, not pro-Georgescu.)
b) Elon explains how George Sore-ars milk the USA.
c) Protest breaks out in France condemning President Macron. “Macron, we won’t die for Ukraine.”
d) The French Government invites universities to welcome American scientists ‘mistreated’ by [President] Donald Trump.
(JH: Rabid marxists we presume.)
Extra: Yesterday was a day of reflection on the Covid debarcle. This is a video of some people who should be hanging their heads in shame.
10. Not bizarre at all when you look at Reform’s funding. Should be obvious if folks do their homework.
