@ElSpeedicut @ElectionMapsUK @techneUK But they’ve had the entire media parroting them ad nauseam for the past few years. That’s not remarkable at all

@ElectionMapsUK @techneUK I suspect this will be the peak for Restore. Our electoral system is notoriously difficult for new parties to break into which makes Reform's success all the more remarkable.

Westminster Voting Intention: RFM: 26% (-1) CON: 18% (-) LAB: 17% (-) GRN: 16% (-1) LDM: 13% (-1) RES: 3% (New) SNP: 3% (-) Via @techneUK, 22nd - 24th Apr, Changes w/ 10-12 Mar.

@LexiBeaChorlton Sorry are you joking ?!

This man is a hero Fought for our nation for decades Such strength of character to face down the establishment,.media and bad actors Just the guy for Number 10 Everyone loves him 🩵🩵🩵🩵

@GrnElects This is misleading .. not every seat is a reform/green battle and you know it

🚨 NEW: The Greens hold second place in today's Find Out Now poll, keeping the small gap with Reform UK. 💚💪 It's all to play for.

@ZackPolanski We don’t live in a binary Zack. Why should it be just you two? Last I looked there were at least 6 parties in the uk

Nigel Farage asked on BBC news this morning if he'd debate with me. Says he's too busy with the local elections & it will just be a "big row." I've been asking him for months. Someone's running scared? Vote Green.

@classic_shows The wonderful Christopher Straulli recently turned 80!

Watching this gem never gets old 😁 Only When I Laugh is a British television sitcom made by Yorkshire Television for ITV. It aired between 29 October 1979 and 16 December 1982 and is set in the ward of an NHS hospital. The title is in response to the question, "Does it hurt?".

@Heccles94 Neither

Who should be our Next PM? Reply with ‘Zack’ or ‘Farage’

@ZiaYusufUK Heaven help us all

🚨Reform opens a walloping 10 point lead in the latest YouGov poll. Westminster Voting Intention: ➡️ REF: 27% (+3) 🌳 CON: 17% (-2) 🟢 GRN: 17% (-1) 🌹 LAB: 16% (-1) 🔶️ LDEM: 14% (+1) With just over 2 weeks to go before the big May 7 elections 🚀🇬🇧

@drdavidbull Yeah but no services!

Reform UK-led councils have delivered the lowest council tax rises of any party. 👇 Vote Reform UK on May 7th. ✅

@FurkanGozukara You’re more interested in opinion polls and voting trends than the issues. You love the world of self fulfilling prophecies

Sky News confirms a catastrophic collapse for the Labour Party. Their vote share in London has plummeted from 48 percent to a staggering 25 percent. Prominent MPs are terrified for their seats, and Keir Starmer's entire political future is now in severe jeopardy.

@Azazel9996 @ElectionMapsUK How do you know 7% went direct? Were you asking them at the booth? It doesn’t work like that

@ElectionMapsUK How did 7% of REFORM gp to Greens? They're completely opposite

Cliftonville (Kent) Council By-Election Result: 🌍 GRN: 38.8% (+26.7) ➡️ RFM: 33.1% (-7.0) 🌳 CON: 15.2% (-4.5) 🌹 LAB: 10.4% (-11.6) 🙋 Ind: 1.3% (New) 🔶 LDM: 1.2% (-1.9) No Ind (-3.0) as previous. Green GAIN from Reform UK. Changes w/ 2025.

@ElectionMapsUK @YouGov Watch libdem vote start to sneak up during election period. Suddenly people are told they exist.

@RetroNewsNow @bredrew2 All American. Do you not cover British tv?

📺Top 15 Primetime Shows (TV Guide, April 6, 1985):

@YesterdaysBrit1 Listen to our interview with the original cast. distinctnostalgia.buzzsprout.com/650596/episode…

Who remembers this TV series?

@SamCoatesSky Well it depends how much you talk them up .. like you do reform constantly. LibDems have 72 seats yet you never talk them up ? Reason ???? Is it because they don’t fit your cosy left/right binary narrative? A disgrace ..

The Greens are now the number 1 pick for all voting age groups under 50, in today’s YouGov poll

@SamCoatesSky @BarryStill2 Well it depends how much you talk them up .. like you reform constantly. LibDems have 72 seats yet you never talk them up ? Reason ????

YouGov / Sky News / Times voting intention *Greens leapfrog Labour into second place* RefUK 23% (-1) GRN 21% (+4) LAB 16%(-2) CON 16%(-2) LDEM 14%(nc), Pollster note: This is the highest we've had the Greens, the first time we've had them in second. It is also the lowest we have had Labour. In terms of how meaningful this is, it is obviously likely driven to a significant extent by the publicity from the Denton & Gorton by-election, as well as any impact it has from the Greens appearing a more viable option and less of a wasted vote. It remains to be seen to what extent it sticks, or whether it fades again as the immediate publicity boost recedes. Sunday/Monday

Television turns 100 this week. Little mention in the UK media of this big global milestone created right here in Britain by Scotsman John Logie Baird. Have we stopped looking back at the 1920s? - a hugely significant decade which still impacts on the world today. Bizarre!

@LadyMistyMoo @EdwardJDavey You really goanna dismiss such a miscarriage of justice with a "are you 14" quip? You sick little gimp

@TilghmanWill @concreteworld1 @EdwardJDavey That’s not the point. The insult is the point.

@concreteworld1 @EdwardJDavey I highly doubt it.

457 British troops lost their lives in Afghanistan. Trump avoided military service 5 times. How dare he question their sacrifice. Farage and all the others still fawning over Trump should be ashamed.

@Inadvertantview @EdwardJDavey What are you talking about ?

@EdwardJDavey That’s when the UK was a proper ally. We thank those British soldiers with all our hearts. Now, however, the UK government, not so much.

@QcWynter US conglomerates have far too much power. We need British alternatives

If Starmer does ban X in the UK, that will be the moment that I finally make the decision to enter politics, a decision at which I baulked in the late 1980s in order to focus on furthering my legal career. I don't think he will do it; he only wants to look tough, but we'll see.
