@LeonMorris @joshsimonsmp You’d think a screenshot would have looked more legitimate, I’m sure it can be verified and isn’t a desperate ploy to look like Reform isn’t going to pull Andy’s pants down.

@baanrun @joshsimonsmp "From a constituent on a Reform page" i.e. written down and copy-n-pasteable

For Westminster, this is a good summary of what people are saying on the doors in Makerfield. From a constituent of mine on a Reform page:
"I'll probably get slated for this especially in this forum but hear me out.
I've spent my whole adult life wishing that someone like me, from a working class background and from the North was leading our country. All I've seen in my lifetime is public school boys telling me how things are and to be honest, coming from a family of little to no wealth, it makes my blood boil.
To have the chance of a prime minister who is born and bred in my neck of the woods. Understands the environment I grew up in if nothing else. And, more so, has a chance to take that top job and maybe, just maybe, make decisions that make a difference to people like me.
That's what @AndyBurnhamGM represents for me. This feels like a one time in a generation chance to get someone in who isn't part of the establishment and may do things differently than has been done before.
If people vote Reform, it won't put them in power. If they won it would merely be something to brag about but wouldn't make any fundamental difference to mine or your way of life.
Alteratively, if Andy wins, it's likely he'll become our new prime minister and maybe, just maybe, we'll feel the difference. If not, vote Reform in the next general election and I'll join you.
Peace out 📷"

He’s absolutely right. Brexit didn’t work. I voted Remain and have zero regrets. Everyone knows it and finally politicians are starting to say it out loud

"Britain's future lies with Europe - and one day, back in the European Union." Former health secretary Wes Streeting says the UK needs a new special relationship with Europe, as he calls Brexit a 'catastrophic mistake'. trib.al/zxwWsWg 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602

@TheChiefNerd This guy is stuck on telling people they’re going to be out of work soon rather than what benefits these text prediction models can bring.

@BethRigby @DanielHewittITV He will be advocating for it if he wins that seat though. I imagine if he wins, rejoining will be part of his acceptance speech.

Andy Burnham has also told @DanielHewittITV there a case to rejoin EU in future. Says he’s not advocating it in this by-election (Makerfield is a pro-leave seat) but says in the long term there is a case for it > This a departure from PM who just wouldn’t go there whenever he was asked.
Tells Dan: “I've said in the long-term there is a case for that, but I'm not advocating that in this by-election
“In fact, what I am saying is focus now domestically, Britain has got to focus very much on the here and now and the issues that are affecting people. And actually there is a degree of public control that we've got that we need to start using properly…And I think, you know, these are the things we need to focus on rather than getting trapped in a debate about the EU.
“We've got to focus domestically, sort out Britain and that has got to be the first priority”

Streeting uses 1st speech since resigning to call for UK to rejoin EU. PM was pressed by some to be this radical as part of his effort to signal 'change', but stopped short of breaking manifesto pledges. Didn't want to freedom of movement back on table & that fight w Reform

Reform UK told the BBC that he paid in cash for his £1.4m house in Surrey with his “I’m a Celebrity” fee from ITV and not with the £5m gift from crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne - which Farage says was to provide him with security (physical, not financial). But the ITV “Celeb” fee was £1.5m, which would be £825,000 after tax, for a top-rate taxpayer like Farage. That’s £575,000 less than the price of the house.
And even if the fee was paid into his “Thorn in the side” media company rather than directly to him, it would still be taxable, one way or another

@PolitlcsUK @BethRigby For the Americans? I’m not sure they know who he is.

@BurnsideWasTosh This will be the end of the left wing of Labour so every cloud.

@IsabelOakeshott @AndyBurnhamGM @reformparty_uk Has Starmer being playing 6D chess and waited to release the NEC once Andy picked a seat that he was certain to win but bound to lose?
English

Based on the mood in Makerfield today, I think @AndyBurnhamGM has made a massive miscalculation. Just got a feeling that @reformparty_uk is going to win, by a significant margin

Am I the only one getting vibe coding fatigue?
Building landing pages in 30 seconds was fun, but maintaining a complex codebase where half the logic was “vibed” into existence is an absolute headache.
Feels like we traded 1 hour of typing for 5 hours of architectural debugging later. I’ve started manually writing core logic again so I actually know where the technical debt is hiding.
Is anyone successfully managing large production projects with AI agents, or are we all just building disposable software?
