WATCH: Nigel Farage and Robert Jenrick change fuel prices in Buxton at a Reform UK petrol station They have pledged to reinstate the 5p fuel duty cut in their first Budget

Farage and Jenrick pull a stunt in Buxton in protest at the fuel prices which are going up - on account of a war they both back - started by a man Farage flew thousands of miles to "have dinner with" only for said man to decide he was busy.

So much dignity going on.

Grasping little nobodies, who think they have a god given right to literally lord it over us in perpetuity, because some ancestor bought a peerage or was the illegitimate child of a royal or won some battle in a long forgotten colonial war or lent money to some tosser who lived beyond their means.

Genuine questions: could these people be in the pay of the regime? And would that, to use language some of them favour, make them both ‘economic migrants’ *and* ‘welfare scroungers’?

Turns out all the Brexiters shilling for Trump really hate British sovereignty.

How lessons from Iraq are shaping Starmer’s Iran response Operation Epic Fury is a US military operation. It will not be possible for the UK to exert any significant influence in planning.

This is superlative.

UK must stockpile food in readiness for climate shocks or war, expert warns Prof Tim Lang says country produces far less food than it needs to feed population and is particularly vulnerable

Meanwhile, Irish agriculture system entirely incapable of meeting fundamental food needs of our population, with its export-based model predicated on massive fertiliser, animal feed imports.

We are shockingly vulnerable yet nobody is even talking about it.

It's going to be "but helmets are good!" all day from people who don't cycle and won't read anything about it, isn't it?
People who'll tell you the Dutch and the Danes etc got it all wrong and they should listen to the guy who is thinking about it today for the first time

Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.

Dublin Corporation bulldozed a site with a thousand year history to build offices that they’re abandoned after less than 50 years, never having answered the question, during the controversy in the 70s and 80s, why the offices couldn’t be built elsewhere. Sickening dénouement to a tale of shame.

I’ve always loved it. Not the acres of car park that cover most of the footprint, but yes the glass bit and its iron railings and marble floors and huge clock. Even Roger Mallalieu and Angela Brady acknowledged that the interior was a splendid space, if freed of the clutter on the ground.
