I first met Clark Reynolds when he was just three years old at our Black History Month reception at the White House. Over the last ten years, it's been wonderful getting updates about his life through his letters. Check out how he’s doing now:

We're on course for more massive gains, taking control of both East and West Surrey councils! So proud of all our activists who have offered a positive alternative to Reform and delivered another set of record-breaking results.

Chatting to a friend yesterday about the whole Farage/Reform situation, I ended up in a bit of a rant! It gave me pause for thought … he's untouchable, isn't he? So many of us, over the last two years, have unearthed myriad stories that would have ended any other politician's career. But not our Nige. The donors, the undeclared expenses, the £5M 'bribe', an actual Russian asset, the racism, the Epstein links, the tax affairs, the transformation into the Tories 2.0. I could go on, but you see what I'm getting at. Nothing touches Nigel Farage. Whatever we turn up, it only emboldens his fan base further; they love the fact that he's a crook and just keeps getting away with it. Why? Because they don't have any interest in politics. All they care about is the cult of personality. So perhaps we're going about this all wrong. Whenever we find more shady goings-on, more corruption, we're met with the same repeated mantra: “Don't care, still voting Reform”. [I added the punctuation. That doesn't usually feature.] Nigel Farage is just Boris Johnson with fewer children — a bloviating, manufactured, owned, puppet in a suit. There is very little substance to either man, save for the desire to enrich their own lives. Both men making hay from the wreckage of Brexit, and both entirely uninterested in actually governing a country. So perhaps that's our angle; if we keep pointing out that these two politicians share identical traits, it could dwindle support for the current delegate. Johnson, like a grotesque version of the picture of Dorian Gray, looming across Farage's political future. Maybe not … but I'm of the opinion now that, short of a prison sentence, there is no scandal Farage cannot style out — with the aid of his bought and paid for media chums, of course. He accepted an undeclared £5M 'gift' from his sugar daddy and then told the BBC 'nothing to see here'. The BBC just nodded politely and forgot to look any further. So let's change the narrative. The comparisons are there, and the Reform UK base do not like it one bit.

I’m not a woman who minds being called love in a well meant context at all but when it’s done to demean & belittle as happens here, you can fuck right off. This is how men who come up against women of superior intellect behave. If Starmer did this, we’d never hear the end of it.

BREAKING: The White House melts down and attacks music legend Jack White after he insults Donald Trump's "disgusting" and "vulgar" redecoration of the White House — prompting White to unleash a scathing takedown for the ages. MAGA should have just left well enough alone... “Jack White is a washed-up, has-been loser posting drivel on social media because he clearly has ample time on his hands due to his stalled career,” claimed White House spokesman Steven Cheung. In truth, White is still enormously popular and successful, far more so than any of the actually washed up musicians and "celebrities" that MAGA likes to trot out as Trump supporters. “It’s apparent [White]’s been masquerading as a real artist, because he fails to appreciate, and quite frankly disrespects, the splendor and significance of the Oval Office inside of ‘The People’s House,'” Cheung added. The idea that agreeing with Trump's infamously tacky interior design sensibilities is a prerequisite for being a "real artist" is laughable. Donald Trump has always had awful taste in aesthetics. Cheung's remarks led to White posting a lengthy screed on Instagram, in which he listed off Trump's staggering number of failures and scandals— "Listen, I’m an artist and not a politician so I’m in no need to give my answer or opinion on anything if I’m not inspired or compelled, but how funny that it wasn’t me calling out trump’s blatant fascist manipulation of government, his gestapo ICE tactics, his racist remarks about Latinos, Native Americans, etc. his ridiculous 'wall' construction, his attacks on the disabled, his attempted coup and mob insurrection and destruction of the sacred halls of congress, his disparaging sexist and pedophilic remarks about women, his obvious attempts at distraction about being a close personal friend of Jeffrey Epstein and his inclusion in the Epstein files, his ignorance of the dying children in Sudan, Gaza, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, his lack of empathy for military veterans and those struggling with poverty, his attempts to dismantle healthcare, his obvious wimpy and pathetic kowtowing to the dictators Putin and Kim Jong Un, his nazi like rallies, his attempts to sell merchandise and products like Goya beans through the office of the President, his fake 'gunshot to the ear' that he showed no medical records or photographs of, his constant, constant, constant lying to the American people, etc. etc. etc." White wrote. "No, it wasn’t me calling out any of that, it was the f*cking DECOR OF THE OVAL OFFICE remarks I made that got them to respond with insults," he continued. "How petty and pathetic and thin skinned could this administration get? 'Masquerading as a real artist'? Thank you for giving me my tombstone engraving! Well here’s my opinion, trump is masquerading as a human being." "He’s masquerading as a christian, as a leader, as a person with actual empathy," he wrote. "He’s been masquerading as a businessman for decades as nothing he’s involved in has prospered except by using other people’s money to find loophole after loophole and grift after grift." "His staff of professional liar toadies like Steven Cheung and Karoline Leavitt have been covering up and masking his fascism as patriotism and fomenting hatred and division in this country on a daily basis," White went on. "And I have 'ample time on (my) hands'? That orange grifter has spent more tax payer money cheating at golf than helping ANYONE in the country. Improve. Anything. There is no progress with him, only smoke and mirrors and tax breaks for the ultra wealthy." "So maga folk, enjoy your concrete paving over of the rose garden, your 200 million dollar ballroom in the White House, and your gaudy ass gold spray painted trinkets from Home Depot, cause he ain’t spending any money on helping YOU unless you fit into his white supremacist country club rich idiot agenda," he continued." "Wow, he hates who you hate....good for you, be proud of yourselves, how christian of you all," White went on. "The only way you can support this conman is because you are a victim of the 2 party system and you 'defend your guy no matter what he does.'" he wrote. "No intelligent person can defend this low life fascist. This bankruptor of casinos. This failed seller of trump steaks, trump vodka, trump water, etc." "This man and his goon squad have failed upwards for decades and have fleeced the American people over and over," wrote White. "This professional golf cheat, this grifter who has hundreds of thousands of deaths from his inaction of the pandemic on his hands, this man that the majority of the country somehow were fooled into supporting and voting into office (through the flawed electoral college) and their love of reality television stars." "Being insulted by the actual White House that this particular conman leads is a badge of honor to me, because anyone who trump supports and likes is a villain who gives nothing to their fellow man, only takes what can benefit themselves," he continued. "And no I’m not a Democrat either, I’m a human being raised in Detroit, I’m an artist who’s owned his own businesses like his own upholstery shop and recording label since he was 21 years old who has enough street sense to know when a 3 card monte dealer is a cheap grifter and a thief," he concluded before signing his name. In his Instagram post, White also shared a photo of Trump hawking his ugly golden sneakers, one of Trump selling MAGA merchandise at the White House, and memes about Trump scandals. He also wrote a caption— "I was raised to believe that we defeated fascism in World War II and that we would never allow it again in the world. I don't always state publicly my political opinions, and like anyone I don't always know all of the facts, but when it comes to this man and this administration I'm not going to be like one of the silent minority of 1930's Germany. This man is a danger to not just America but the entire world and that's not an exaggeration, he's dismantling democracy and endangering the planet on a daily basis, and we. all. know. it. -JW III... 'To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.' - Theodore Roosevelt" By just about any metric, this is one of most brutal, comprehensive takedowns of Donald Trump to date. Let's hope that the White House hits back again, so that Jack White has an excuse to tear into him even more. Please retweet and ❤️ to thank Jack White for speaking the truth!

Words to live by: “The true measure of a leader is not based on who you beat down but on who you lift up.”
Kamala Harris@KamalaHarris

The true measure of a leader is not based on who you beat down but on who you lift up. For over 24 hours, my friend @CoryBooker stood on the floor of the Senate and lifted up the voices of the American people harmed by the current administration. We must continue to fight for the best of who we are as Americans. Thank you, Cory, for your leadership.

@SimoninSuffolk I’m Portsmouth born - my father was in the navy; my mum was a midwife in Gosport. As a child I watched the Mary Rose raised & RN ships sail to fight in Falklands. The history of the city is indeed in the sea. Lovely photos x

Before @wesstreeting and @GwynneMP finalise the NHS priorities for 2025, we’d be grateful if they spend 5 mins reading this article. If we start the FLS rollout in 2025, we’ll free up 300,000 bed days by the next election and 60,000 extra surgeries. But if we delay a year, the benefits will be pushed out and even more lives will be lost to broken hips.
