Don't see how he can gain any expertise in governing when he rarely went to meetings as an MEP and now seems to find all sorts of excuses to avoid being in the Commons and Clacton.
Surely the CPS should automatically explain that to the victim?
Holly, I was replying to Moosic. You've made valid points. Bluesky doesn't seem to let you remove people from replies like X does.
Did you read the OP? This person has recently had surgery and is having difficulty walking. Sounds like a perfectly good reason to be excused jury service.
FACTS:
Net Zero barely nudges your bill.
Fossilโfuel wars send it through the roof.
So when Farage and his ilk slags off renewables while fanning conflict, remember who actually hikes your costs.
Hell hath no fury like a Reform leader scorned. Had to get his revenge after Trump publicly stood him up.
There, Nige, we're kind enough not to make you think you'll see us then stand you up like your hero Trump.
@fullfact.org is this claim on a letter from Reform, plugging their pre-county-election Suffolk Rally on March 23, correct in saying their councils have "saved hundreds of millions" and "kept council tax rises lower on average than any other political party" or is it another Farage Fantasy?
Screen grab of Reform's Suffolk Rally ticket website saying the ยฃ5 tickets are for Reform members and "local residents who are supportive of Reform".
Had letters from #Farage telling us what protectors of county democracy #Reform are and inviting us to its Suffolk Rally on March 23. Nige, we won't be paying ยฃ5 each and doing a 100mi round trip to the other end of Suffolk to hear you lie, especially as website says tickets are only for supporters.
Wonder if the touchscreen reacts faster than a physical button.
The section on using a postal vote shows how little they know about it.
It says "use a pen if possible" but the voting form says you *must* use a black pen.
I take it they want you to post it asap in case Reform or their candidate do something stupid and you change your mind.
Whenever I see magnolias in bloom I always wonder why paint manufacturers call cream paint "Magnolia" because I've never seen a cream coloured magnolia.
Surely the same can be said of the logo idea? On R4 Today this morning an author said AI books in the style of a well known writer had been self-published to con their fans. If someone is dishonest enough to do that, they'll be dishonest enough to scan the logo off a book and add it to their cover.
I was in a local newspaper office a while ago when (I'll admit to my surprise) a fax started warbling. All the 20-somethings looked worried and asked "what's that noise?"
They kept a fax line active to a printer because they still had the odd advertiser who used faxes.
Perhaps they were confused because he should have said "was".
That's odd. I'm sure he said months ago that Iran's nuclear facilities had been destroyed.
Whichever bitcoin billionaire funded this latest Farage Freebie isn't getting his money's worth.
Farage and Lowe are both too leftie woke for Trump these days.
Sandflies live in deserts. There was an outbreak of sandfly fever on the Kent coast in the 70s but that was because sand used in building the Isle of Grain power station had been shipped directly from the Sahara. Luckily, a local GP had studied insect bourne diseases.
Is anyone asking real experts if these bombers visiting Fairford is unusual? I ask because we live near USAF bases at Mildenhall and Lakenheath and in times of tension you always see news reports of aircraft types landing as if it's unusual but they're either based there or regular visitors.
I can't visualise what stones would be because I've weighed myself in kg for decades but 220lb is an easy conversion to kg because 1kg is 2.2lb. So this guy was about 15kg heavier than me, if that helps.
What's even more stupid is the website says the story has been updated yet it still has the phrase "ยฃ200 wetsuit".
Judging MPs by their performance on X could make Farage our best MP. The people of Clacton should be proud. ๐คญ
Odd how no sooner does traitor Farage pop over for a chat with his demented hero than Trump is attacking the UK and Starmer. Trump's rant also seems to echo Farage's comments.
I find the UK right's grovelling to a delusional, demented, egotistic, tyrant, paedophile far more humiliating.
It was fortunate Biden saw sense because the Tories' only plan was to build 5,000 homes there with nothing to replace the thousands of civilian jobs lost. Even the Tory district council leader criticised the plan as merely creating a commuter dormitory for nearby Cambridge.
Hope our Government is making plans in case Trump decides he no longer needs UK bases.
Last time he was screwing up the world he decided he didn't need the USAF in-flight refuelling base at Mildenhall, in spite of US generals disagreeing. Luckily Biden listened to the military and cancelled closure.
And the only reason they entered WW2 in 1941 was because their inaction had led to Japan attacking them without declaring war.
You forgot to include delusional in your description of Trump.
