Feels like the UK is headed for its sixth prime minister in seven years. This isn't just about flawed personalities, it's about a flawed country.

We now go live to Downing Street

@margothefriend polling on 5% i’ve heard

🚨BREAKING🚨 My Westminster sources are telling me that Glenn Gibbins has started his own breakaway party, Resurface UK. He is quoted as saying: "Britain's roads are broken. Britain needs Resurface."

@JakeRWeston @RequestABet Would be a popular one in Bermondsey.

Can you price up a Reform to win the next GE & Milwall to get promoted double? @RequestABet

There’s nothing more divisive than treating your own people like second-class citizens. This is why Reform is surging. The fact the establishment can’t see it speaks volumes.

I beg your pardon

Democracy is working. A new force is supplanting the failed parties, and is now the only truly national party in Britain. Voters see that @Nigel_Farage and @reformparty_uk offer the only hope for the change they demanded in 2016, 2019, 2024: a government that's on their side.

@margothefriend @WTMAtkinson When aren’t you?

at the club getting absolutely wankered on nigel negronis

@AllisonPearson couldn't agree more.

This isn’t just about loathing Starmer although he is certainly loathsome. This is the working people rejecting an entire political class that has forced values down their throats they despise. That has mismanaged their country and made affording a very ordinary life hard. That has allowed mass immigration to ruin parts of their beloved country. That has called them far right and racist when they object to the ruin of that country. Well, they are the Masters now. @reformparty_uk

Top tier entertainment, nothing beats an election night. 🍿

@_ConnieShaw @Glinner Two Heroes.

The man the myth the legend. An innocent man @Glinner So wonderful to be able to celebrate with the chap who has sacrificed so much and without whom I wouldn’t have a career myself fighting the crazies.

@elliehodges62 Nail on the head as usual from Morrissey

Tragedy after tragedy. I always come back to this song. Have been listening to it a lot tonight. And the silly people sing: "Don't Look Back in Anger" And the morons sing and sway: "Don't Look Back in Anger" I can assure you I will look back in anger 'till the day I die - Morrisey

It’s all too clear that a country in which Jews are attacked on the streets simply because they are Jewish, synagogues need to employ security, & anti-Semitic slogans & images are paraded through city centres or exhibited in art galleries is exactly what we’ve become.

I hear that Danny Kruger and Matt Goodwin beat the Conservatives to win the support of a Spectator audience tonight. I think @MichaelGove should listen to his readers more!

The @spectator event: Fight for the Right at the Emmanuel Centre.

Hi @GNev2 This is the culprit who stabbed two Jewish people in Golders Green today. He doesn’t look like a middle-aged white man who is waving a Union flag.

@joshxhowie Horrifying.

Dropped wife at work, a few helicopters in the sky from when two Jewish men got stabbed earlier. Off to pick up kids from school that was scoped out most likely by a terrorist last week. On the way I’ll drive past two synagogues that have been firebombed. This is being a Jew in the UK in 2026.

@RachelReevesMP You and your poisonous government will continue to do nothing and just wait for the inevitable next attack.

I am horrified by the events in Golders Green today. The poison of antisemitism has no place in our country. Those responsible will be brought to justice. My thanks to Shomrim, Hatzola and our emergency services who put their safety on the line to help others.

@joshxhowie @guardian What a great message to send to young Journalists!

Mazel Tov to Jonathan Liew for winning best antisemite who doesn’t know what a woman is! Especially in such a crowded field of other @guardian journalists.
