Reform are promising to close down all the foreign barbers shops, nail bars, kebab shops, phone repair and accessory shops.
They are all just fronts for money laundering and drug running.

I'll spare the headline writers the trouble: Seven times failed candidate to stand in Clacton.
 
This is how I read the following with a change highlighted

He now claims his first six attempts were not serious, just efforts to gain publicity for his then-party, UKIP.

He blames his defeat in the 2015 general election in South Thanet, when he did mount a serious campaign, on Conservative foul play.

Where does this leave Tice?

What? Those dastardly Tories let him open his mouth and spout his usual bollocks? How very dare they?
 
Apparently Farage standing has transformed the GE and will kill Labour's hopes of forming the next government. Farage will lead Reform to victory it seems.
 
Anyone else reckon that either Trump told Nige to sod right off or that Nige has realised he can't make the grift work over there? Or is he just miffed that Trump profusely thanked BlowJob but not him?
 
I think Farage announcing he's standing is great, it makes it far less likely they withdraw their candidates at the last minute to help the Tories and will split votes in three major demographics, the stupid, the racists and the stupid racists.

According to the report on South Today, just now, Rish! was actually the wrong side of the river, in Wokingham, Berkshire, instead of Henley, Oxfordshire. You'd think they could get something that simple right (well, based on the last 14 years, I guess not).
 
I'm wondering if he thinks he can win Clacton (not impossible certainly) and completely trash the Tories this time round, making the rump think they have to accommodate Farage. He immediately crossses the floor and becomes a Tory MP able to stand for the leadership after Sunak resigns.

And the "I've got mine and I'm pulling up the ladder" demographic, around here that's an important one.

I wonder whether it will be the Tories or Reform that will get to the bottom of the barrel first?

Making it illegal for the RNLI to go to someone's rescue until they provide a British passport?

Is it time for me to trot out my personal favourite of Sunak describing Darlington as being in Scotland?

He has a record of not doing the geography thing. Mebbe someone needs to get those education inspector bods to visit Winchester?

No idea why he wanted such a long election, it's not going to help him, should have gone with the 4 weeks and got it over with!
