If Biden's plan goes to plan, the Democrats will replace the candidate most likely to lose to Trump, with the candidate second-most-likely to lose to Trump.

@BBCNews It is not Rosenior who should have been sacked. It is the people who appointed him who should be sacked.

‘It’s going to follow him around like a bad smell.’ @HenryRiley1 believes Starmer will struggle to fully recover from the Peter Mandelson saga.

@Mendelpol For years past, London has hosted massed parades, of thousands of people spewing out hatred of Jews, whilst Mayor Khan't has stood & watched. He is now reaping what has been sown.

“The Prime Minister lied. It’s now in the national interest he goes.” Keir Starmer’s words…not ours. We’re only holding him to the standards he set himself.

@TheGriftReport Given the way the judiciary acts these days, it is little short of miraculous that he got jail-time at all, rather than a suspended sentence.

Eritrean migrant Thomas Mesai Siyoum, who had only just arrived in the UK, stabbed a man in the leg in a frenzied attack in Oxford. He accused the victim of talking about him behind his back, then plunged a knife into his right inner thigh. The victim’s life was saved only because a passer-by used a T-shirt as a tourniquet. Siyoum pleaded guilty to unlawful wounding and possessing a knife in public. Jailed for three years and one month. THREE YEARS ?!?!?! WHAT AN ABSOLUTE JOKE!!

Reform Defector Rosindell Loses High Court Bid to Retake Constituency Office order-order.com/2026/03/30/ref… via @guidofawkes I am very surprised that this made it to Court. Conservative Party premises are for the use of Conservative MPs, not Reform ones. A poor use of £23k @SkyNews

@SandyofSuffolk It sounds as if she is one of that endangered species, a Green who is actually green, not red. Welcome to the Watermelon Party - green on the outside, red on the inside.

The Green Party. I have a friend who's a councillor for the Green Party. She's a wonderful hard working woman. She helped householders whose houses were flooded a couple of years ago, stayed up all night helping them pump their houses out and move furniture; helped volunteers clear the river of debris; got all new planters and bins for the village square; attends all village events; opposes all development applications on farmland and green belt; gives immediate attention to any problems people are having; got new road signage. I could go on and on. She'd actually make a great MP. She cares about her village, her people and the environment. Unfortunately, she's not standing for re-election because her party, she says, has been infiltrated by lunatics and anti-Semites. Isn't that sad. ☹️

One in five university students in Britain say they wouldn’t share a house with a Jewish student - and yet many voice their support for an Iranian regime whose soldiers gang-raped two nurses so violently they had to have their internal organs removed. How have we arrived at this point?

@LordAshcroft @NAM_London @VC_and_GC_Assoc Very good news. Lord Ashcroft has shown why he has been a successful entrepreneur, bringing this attribute to his philanthropic activities, as well as his commercial ones. When one door is shut in your face, find another one.

STARMER’S JURY TRIAL AXE BOMBSHELL U-TURN DEMANDED AFTER HIS OWN 1992 REPORT ADMITTED JUDGE-ONLY TRIALS CAUSED WRONGFUL CONVICTIONS! Keir Starmer faces fresh fury over Labour’s Courts Bill: jury trials scrapped for all cases likely under 3 years (single judge decides), magistrates’ powers hiked to 18 months. But the PM co-wrote a Haldane Society report slamming Northern Ireland’s Diplock courts for exactly this, “failing to secure reliable convictions”, reduced cross-examination, and “enabling wrongful convictions without procedural error”. Labour MP Karl Turner: “Keir knows full well this is unjust, unworkable and unnecessary.” Tory MP Nick Timothy: “Read your own report and stop the attack on 800-year-old jury rights!” Backlog excuse or rights betrayal? Revolt growing!

Nigel Farage on why he has 2 ministers of the failed Tory govt in his top team: "These were two people who were ministers but frankly weren't ministers for very long." But also: "We've got an awful lot to learn; these guys can help us"

I’m blown away by this quote from the U.K. judge who just decided Palestine Action is not a terrorist group: “The nature and scale of Palestine Action’s activities falling within the definition of terrorism had not yet reached the level, scale and persistence to warrant proscription.” So far, Palestine Action’s chants hate slogans that incite violence against Jews, destroys property, and attacked a woman with a sledgehammer. But it’s not YET at the right scale? Why do we have to wait for a problem to get even worse before solving it?

@NickFerrariLBC @LBC Much sense from Zahawi, right up to the part where he says his political future plan is - what Nigel Farage says it is. From a success self-made man, this is quite incredible.

Nigel Farage wants energy-rich Scotland to become poorer by taking away vital support like free prescriptions and free tuition. And he's openly discussed privatising our NHS. Declare your support for Scotland's right to decide today: yes.scot/decide
