Remarkably. That poll puts the Conservatives as SIXTH largest Party in seats.
If you put it in electoral calculas it gives 373 seats for reform, labour down 344 seats to 68, lib dem 54 and conservatives 33
If you think that will be the result I am sure you will get excellent odds
And 52 Green. 44 SNP. I never said I believed it would be the result. However, it does just show how precarious the positions of Labour and the Tories are. And just how low Reform can go and still win a majority if no one else breaks free of the pack.
And if there is no anti Reform tactical voting but there likely will be. Nonetheless overall a good Opinium poll for Farage, even if 1% down still enough on its own for a Reform majority and Starmer as Labour break free of the pack and squeeze the Tories and LDs a little and remain well ahead of the Greens with Starmer's keeping out of US and Israeli offensive strikes on Iran
Whats that about Starmer keeping out of US offensive strikes on Iran with 4 B1 bombers each with a payload of 24 cruise missiles is readying to fly and attack Iran from Fairford ?
They are not allowed to strike Tehran buildings only missile launchers
You cannot be so naive to believe that surely
Starmer has made clear US bombers can only use UK bases for defensive operations not offensive operations

The nightmare for Starmer is if Trump ignores him and tells US bombers flying from UK bases to bomb Tehran buildings anyway. What would SKS then do? Send some jets to try and stop US bombers landing at UK bases? He can't shoot the US bombers down otherwise Trump would see that as a near declaration of war by the UK on the USA. I suppose Starmer could try and stop the bombers being filled with fuel on the ground?
By the time the world cup comes around, Iran will likely to be a total disaster, Cuba might have been attacked, and God only knows what will be next. Trump is off his rocker, and essentially nobody in the US has the courage to do anything to stop him.
Andy, BigG - what about if you put your head in the mind of an Iranian nationalist, what they are doing makes perfect sense then, doesn’t it?
My wife's hairdresser said her Iranian friend had cancelled her 6 year old daughter's birthday party yesterday because they were worried sick about their family in Iran but support the US action
And by the way once the US and Israel took their action, they involved all their allies in the arena and Iran's indiscriminate firing of drones and missiles towards our bases means we are legally entitled to eliminate the location of those sites
We did not start this war, but we are in it now and it is unacceptable to expect US to act on our behalf when we have the capability to defend ourselves
Apparently 4 x BI aircraft with upto 24 cruise missiles each are about to leave Fairford to attack Iran and B52s are said to be joining them
We are very much part of these operations now
“ We are very much part of these operations now”
We started the day asking if you are on message with Kemi Big G, I’m still asking you, are you sure you are?
Yes - read all her speech and she is right
Too slow and too political by Starmer justifies her position
We don't want to fight But by jingo if we do We've got no ships, we've got no men And money's a bit tight too.

He wont do anything. He will just look impotent with a fence still up his arse
I simply cannot see Charles going to the US and can see boycotts of the World cup
I'm not sure cancelling does much good, but it will be a degrading, excruciating experience as Trump uses every opportunity uses every opportunity to slag off the UK, then will give some cloying diplomatic speech at dinner pretending he has anything other than contempt for the country. It's a power thing, he likes that most of the time nations do not respond in turn to his insults, and have to come kiss the ring anyway.

Blair was the greatest PM we’ve had since Churchill.
However, on the Iran war him being for it is just another reason to oppose the UK ever getting involved.
Blair is largely the one responsible for the shit show of 4th rate non-entities we have as MPs today. He promoted image above competance and party above principle. He had no interest in either public service nor political beliefs. His whole philosophy of politics was transactional and based upon the pursuit and maintenance of power. He was, to my mind, one of the worst Prime Ministers of the post war era and we live in the political aftermath of his failings.

Starting to sound like the opposite of the 'longest suicide note in history'.
Reparations from China for covid virus lab leak must be in the manifesto though.
Trump calls the UK a “once great ally” and says they’re “finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East.”
“That's OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don't need them any longer — But we will remember. We don't need people that join Wars after we've already won!”
He's making a difficult thing (splitting from the US) seem a tad easier.
This is a good non-technical video by the influential internet economic commentator Patrick Boyle, who I think is an Irishman living in the UK (well he's definitely an Irishman, but I THINK he lives here), about what's wrong with our stagnant economy.
I don't agree with all of it - in particular I think he overestimates the part played by leaving the EU, doesn't blame high taxes, as opposed to a flawed tax system enough, and barely touches on overregulation, except in our disastrous housebuilding industry, and the video doesn't exactly break new ground.
But it's a decent summary of the issues, especially how high taxes price people out of work and regulation out of housing.

He was, to my mind, one of the worst Prime Ministers of the post war era and we live in the political aftermath of his failings.
To be fair Blair was never really a Labour Party man either, he was basically a globalist free market liberal who used the Labour Party to win and get power.
Though it was the voters themselves who voted for the telegenic Blair and Cameron and their images over the more heavyweight Hague, Howard and Brown. I would argue Blair and Cameron were reasonably competent though even if both largely ideology and philosophy free certainly compared to the PMs we have had since and indeed Gordon Brown

Now ask yourself if you can see Starmer and Reeves addressing any of them, as opposed to making them notably worse.
And then look out for airborne bacon.
I watch Patrick Boyle a lot, he's frequently hilarious (and definitely worked here for a long time, whether he does now I don't know). Not some whinging lefty or raving rightist.

Unfortunately that is something that would please him, but in this case that cannot be helped. When faced with naked hostility and contempt from 'allies' changing course is the only rational option, especially as there's at least a 50/50 chance that approach continues long term given his grip on the party is unlikely to end even when he does go - his endorsement will still make and break every GOP rep.
His video on Neom in Saudia Arabia was a masterclass in dry sarcasm, it should be required viewing.
I stayed in the Holiday Inn at Basingstoke last night.
There are several reasons I will be complaining, the most egregious error was GeeBeebies was being broadcast on the TV in the breakfast room. No one could enjoy their rubber eggs with that filth playing.
Are you serious that GB news was playing in the public area
I've noticed in this quite a few public places. Airports, pubs, etc
They play GB News. It is becoming the default news channel in parts of the UK
"£0.00 to play" things often do - even when "£0.01" things which might be better are available. Bean counters everywhere.
Yup
I am old enough to remember when people said GB News would swiftly die
We underestimated the determination of wealthy right wingers to fund a UK propaganda channel.

Yes, his videos about the Epstein imbroglio have been absolutely excellent, even though they're not what he usually does.
He gives good non-techinical explanations of technical economic matters. As I have spent much of my career doing the same I can appreciate when someone else does it well, even if I don't agree with all of his conclusions.

I've not watched it, though it seems reasonably popular. If they can figure out a way to do it without being too American in style I'm sure there's a market for it - the extended rants from 'news' figures, the shoutyness, the overblown presentation, I think it is still a little much for a UK audience, which needs it to be a little more understated.

Remarkably. That poll puts the Conservatives as SIXTH largest Party in seats.
If you put it in electoral calculas it gives 373 seats for reform, labour down 344 seats to 68, lib dem 54 and conservatives 33
If you think that will be the result I am sure you will get excellent odds
And 52 Green. 44 SNP. I never said I believed it would be the result. However, it does just show how precarious the positions of Labour and the Tories are. And just how low Reform can go and still win a majority if no one else breaks free of the pack.
And if there is no anti Reform tactical voting but there likely will be. Nonetheless overall a good Opinium poll for Farage, even if 1% down still enough on its own for a Reform majority and Starmer as Labour break free of the pack and squeeze the Tories and LDs a little and remain well ahead of the Greens with Starmer's keeping out of US and Israeli offensive strikes on Iran
Whats that about Starmer keeping out of US offensive strikes on Iran with 4 B1 bombers each with a payload of 24 cruise missiles is readying to fly and attack Iran from Fairford ?
They are not allowed to strike Tehran buildings only missile launchers
Trail hunting B1s
The nightmare for Starmer is if Trump ignores him and tells US bombers flying from UK bases to bomb Tehran buildings anyway. What would SKS then do? Send some jets to try and stop US bombers landing at UK bases? He can't shoot the US bombers down otherwise Trump would see that as a near declaration of war by the UK on the USA. I suppose Starmer could try and stop the bombers being filled with fuel on the ground?
The US bases in the UK are legally RAF bases. If Starmer gave the order the army could turn up and park a couple of Warrior IFVs on the runway. Not a damn thing the USAF could do about it.
Trump would go ape-shit, which is why it won't happen.

If you put it in electoral calculas it gives 373 seats for reform, labour down 344 seats to 68, lib dem 54 and conservatives 33
If you think that will be the result I am sure you will get excellent odds
And 52 Green. 44 SNP. I never said I believed it would be the result. However, it does just show how precarious the positions of Labour and the Tories are. And just how low Reform can go and still win a majority if no one else breaks free of the pack.
And if there is no anti Reform tactical voting but there likely will be. Nonetheless overall a good Opinium poll for Farage, even if 1% down still enough on its own for a Reform majority and Starmer as Labour break free of the pack and squeeze the Tories and LDs a little and remain well ahead of the Greens with Starmer's keeping out of US and Israeli offensive strikes on Iran
Whats that about Starmer keeping out of US offensive strikes on Iran with 4 B1 bombers each with a payload of 24 cruise missiles is readying to fly and attack Iran from Fairford ?
They are not allowed to strike Tehran buildings only missile launchers
Trail hunting B1s
The nightmare for Starmer is if Trump ignores him and tells US bombers flying from UK bases to bomb Tehran buildings anyway. What would SKS then do? Send some jets to try and stop US bombers landing at UK bases? He can't shoot the US bombers down otherwise Trump would see that as a near declaration of war by the UK on the USA. I suppose Starmer could try and stop the bombers being filled with fuel on the ground?
The US bases in the UK are legally RAF bases. If Starmer gave the order the army could turn up and park a couple of Warrior IFVs on the runway. Not a damn thing the USAF could do about it.
Trump would go ape-shit, which is why it won't happen.
I think that'd be the one thing that would unite the entire American political scene in going ape-shit. One side might understand the technical reason for such an action, but would go just as mad about it.
I stayed in the Holiday Inn at Basingstoke last night.
There are several reasons I will be complaining, the most egregious error was GeeBeebies was being broadcast on the TV in the breakfast room. No one could enjoy their rubber eggs with that filth playing.
Are you serious that GB news was playing in the public area
I've noticed in this quite a few public places. Airports, pubs, etc
They play GB News. It is becoming the default news channel in parts of the UK
"£0.00 to play" things often do - even when "£0.01" things which might be better are available. Bean counters everywhere.
Yup
I am old enough to remember when people said GB News would swiftly die
We underestimated the determination of wealthy right wingers to fund a UK propaganda channel.
I've not watched it, though it seems reasonably popular. If they can figure out a way to do it without being too American in style I'm sure there's a market for it - the extended rants from 'news' figures, the shoutyness, the overblown presentation, I think it is still a little much for a UK audience, which needs it to be a little more understated.
There's an audience for it. Just not a large enough one to make it "a market".
Skyr has, as is his wont, chosen the very worst of all political options. He has grovelled to Trump, humiliaitingly, and yet when it came to policy - letting the Americans use our bases to take out a vile fascist regime - he has said No, at leasr for a few days, because Ed Mliband doesn't like it and we have to honour the views of Mauritius and China
This is Starmer in a nutshelll. A weird toxic terrible mix of bad emotional instincts and even worse political judgement
He should either have kept his distance from Trump, refusing to grovel., and then disallowed use of the bases; or he shoulda gone all in and been a loyal ally, and made the obeisance, and said "Diego Garcia of course, my liege"
So now he is publicly treated like dog shit, despite the grovelling, and gets nothing in return, at all
He is uniquely unsuited to be prime minister, yet he is prime minister. He shames the country
If I do stand for London mayor, I naturally hope all the PB metropolitans will support me
I intend to make the tagging of graffiti and chucking of litter quite serious offences, punished by flogging: with the caning done in public, on top of Primrose Hill, on Sunday afternoons

This will attract tourists charmed by quirky Briitish traditions, and reinforce royalism amongat pub staff
Chapel Royal is quite a long way from the Savoy. Did you mean the Ritz? Your manifesto is already falling apart.

There are several "chapels-royal" - one is right by the Savoy Hotel and is indeed known as the Savoy Chapel
Andy, BigG - what about if you put your head in the mind of an Iranian nationalist, what they are doing makes perfect sense then, doesn’t it?
My wife's hairdresser said her Iranian friend had cancelled her 6 year old daughter's birthday party yesterday because they were worried sick about their family in Iran but support the US action
And by the way once the US and Israel took their action, they involved all their allies in the arena and Iran's indiscriminate firing of drones and missiles towards our bases means we are legally entitled to eliminate the location of those sites
We did not start this war, but we are in it now and it is unacceptable to expect US to act on our behalf when we have the capability to defend ourselves
Apparently 4 x BI aircraft with upto 24 cruise missiles each are about to leave Fairford to attack Iran and B52s are said to be joining them
We are very much part of these operations now
“ We are very much part of these operations now”
We started the day asking if you are on message with Kemi Big G, I’m still asking you, are you sure you are?

I think we can be assured that Winston, being not massively autistic, dimwitted and awkward, and personally clever, witty and astute, would have handled the odious Trump a lot better than the fucking retard that is our prime minister

He is uniquely unsuited to be prime minister, yet he is prime minister. He shames the country
Or, he's a decent honourable man making decisions in terrible circumstances who for obvious political reasons has to take his cabinet with him.

My dad and his wife watch a couple of channels I don't remember the names of, and firstly it was apparent they must not get enough advertising money because they'd repeat the same ads multiple times within the same ad break, but you could tell the subtle difference in estimated demographic for the two channels.
One was advertising things like stairlifts and walk in baths, with a few more 'normal' products sprinkled in.
The other was advertising things funeral care, and suggestions for charity will donations.
Ultimately..... He's not doing enough for those who support deeper involvement He's doing too much for those against this war He's upset those very keen on the special relationship He will not do or say anything re Trump to cheer those who hate the SR He's stuck with the bases in the UK and our intelligence sharing He's not got enough leverage to change the alliance in any meaningful way
No matter the rights or wrongs this fallout with Trump and Starmer is not what is needed right now
I hope behind the scenes diplomacy is in overdrive

You referred to "the" chapel (sic) royal (sic) not "a", and Londoners of a traditional bent (i.e. ignorant of twenty-first century paperwork) naturally think of the one next to Clarence House where Charles used to thank his lucky stars when he was in town for the weekend. But you are literally correct. London deserves you. At least you'd be better than Khan, who according to legend isn't strong on chapels of any description.

While it is tempting to let the outbursts of the toddler in the White House influence our foreign policy, and retaliation is superficially tempting, we are probably better off ignoring it and wait for something new and shiny to distract him.
His outbursts are just a symptom of the wider problem that at least 50% of America is no longer interested in even pretending alliance is a two way street. Even if the situation gets better once he is distracted or ultimately is replaced by someone more diplomatically minded, the UK has to be better prepared for a world where the USA might turn suddenly vindictive and hostile - at present there's nothign we can do but eat shit when it happens, and we need to be in a position where we have some options.

Diplomacy is impossible. You can't make any meaningful deal or agreement with Trump, he changes his mind in the same sentence at times. He's lashing out because Starmer rightly didn't join a war for which the US administration has so far offered 10 different reasons. No country run by rational people is backing Trump, the whole damn world knows that emperor has no clothes, even most of the people who serve Trump know it. He's started a war his own defence and intelligence people warned against.
Farage keeping pretty quiet again? As much as Starmer is very unpopular Trump is so over the top with everything, that Nigel usually ducks down a little, but it's such a big issue he presumably has come out and says he agrees with Trump on this issue? It's not like he would come out and say he disagrees with how harsh he is being on Starmer.
Paul Mason @paulmasonnews · 26m Trump tweets this, disparaging the Royal Navy , our elected government and our nation ... after Nigel Farage brown-nosed him in Mar-a-Lago. Reform are a threat to national security. They're on the other side.

May was fatally weak due to being unable to deal with the Brexit issue, but apart from that rather big thing she wasn't generally awful was she? It's hard to rememember now.
Seems @DefenceHQ realized it’s big video “reveal” showing British engineers at a workshop repairing vehicles inside Ukraine was quite a flub, as it revealed identifiable features and featured @LukePollard going so far as to describe the surroundings, making it likely to be geolocated and targeted by Russia. The post has been taken down but the damage is done. https://x.com/ChristopherJM/status/2030276494036222120?s=20

The most comical part is the idea the US has already won.
At this rate I expect oil prices to be above $100 per barrel on Monday. I'm not sure that qualifies as winning, however many things and people you have blown up.

Well, some definition of winning can always be found, even if it requires shifting what the stated objectives were going to be, so I'm sure they have and will achieve matters of susbtance, but the grandiosity of the rhetoric and talk of unconditional surrender will likely not be matched, given the difficulties of dominating and controlling a nation of 90m people.
No matter the rights or wrongs this fallout with Trump and Starmer is not what is needed right now
I hope behind the scenes diplomacy is in overdrive
Diplomacy is impossible. You can't make any meaningful deal or agreement with Trump, he changes his mind in the same sentence at times. He's lashing out because Starmer rightly didn't join a war for which the US administration has so far offered 10 different reasons. No country run by rational people is backing Trump, the whole damn world knows that emperor has no clothes, even most of the people who serve Trump know it. He's started a war his own defence and intelligence people warned against.
Diplomacy will only return when the political heads of Trump, Farage and increasingly Badenoch are chopped off.

Skyr has, as is his wont, chosen the very worst of all political options. He has grovelled to Trump, humiliaitingly, and yet when it came to policy - letting the Americans use our bases to take out a vile fascist regime - he has said No, at leasr for a few days, because Ed Mliband doesn't like it and we have to honour the views of Mauritius and China
This is Starmer in a nutshelll. A weird toxic terrible mix of bad emotional instincts and even worse political judgement
He should either have kept his distance from Trump, refusing to grovel., and then disallowed use of the bases; or he shoulda gone all in and been a loyal ally, and made the obeisance, and said "Diego Garcia of course, my liege"
So now he is publicly treated like dog shit, despite the grovelling, and gets nothing in return, at all
He is uniquely unsuited to be prime minister, yet he is prime minister. He shames the country
Or, he's a decent honourable man making decisions in terrible circumstances who for obvious political reasons has to take his cabinet with him.
No, he's not decent, he's venal and greedy, and he's not honourable, he's a hypocritical liar. We all know the plentiful evidence for this, it doesn't need rehearsing on here
I am weary of this lame "Starmer is a pathetic wanker but, still, he means well" discourse. Yes, he is a pathetic wanker but he doesn't even mean well. See his entire career as PM, passim
He's neither pathetic, nor venal, nor a hypocritical liar.
He's certainly the best PM we've had since 2016,albeit a very low bar
May was fatally weak due to being unable to deal with the Brexit issue, but apart from that rather big thing she wasn't generally awful was she? It's hard to rememember now.
Very hard to PM with a minority. Under tbe circumstances, she did ok. Arguably the fact she didn't have a majority was her own fault. But some credit to her for trying to solve adult social care, even it wasn't the answer her elderly viters wanted to hear.

It was the last time someone tried, we've been can kicking ever since.
Remarkably. That poll puts the Conservatives as SIXTH largest Party in seats.
If you put it in electoral calculas it gives 373 seats for reform, labour down 344 seats to 68, lib dem 54 and conservatives 33
If you think that will be the result I am sure you will get excellent odds
And 52 Green. 44 SNP. I never said I believed it would be the result. However, it does just show how precarious the positions of Labour and the Tories are. And just how low Reform can go and still win a majority if no one else breaks free of the pack.
And if there is no anti Reform tactical voting but there likely will be. Nonetheless overall a good Opinium poll for Farage, even if 1% down still enough on its own for a Reform majority and Starmer as Labour break free of the pack and squeeze the Tories and LDs a little and remain well ahead of the Greens with Starmer's keeping out of US and Israeli offensive strikes on Iran
Whats that about Starmer keeping out of US offensive strikes on Iran with 4 B1 bombers each with a payload of 24 cruise missiles is readying to fly and attack Iran from Fairford ?
They are not allowed to strike Tehran buildings only missile launchers
Trail hunting B1s
The nightmare for Starmer is if Trump ignores him and tells US bombers flying from UK bases to bomb Tehran buildings anyway. What would SKS then do? Send some jets to try and stop US bombers landing at UK bases? He can't shoot the US bombers down otherwise Trump would see that as a near declaration of war by the UK on the USA. I suppose Starmer could try and stop the bombers being filled with fuel on the ground?
The US bases in the UK are legally RAF bases. If Starmer gave the order the army could turn up and park a couple of Warrior IFVs on the runway. Not a damn thing the USAF could do about it.
Trump would go ape-shit, which is why it won't happen.
I think that'd be the one thing that would unite the entire American political scene in going ape-shit. One side might understand the technical reason for such an action, but would go just as mad about it.
The general public should turn up and sit on the tarmac.
If I do stand for London mayor, I naturally hope all the PB metropolitans will support me
I intend to make the tagging of graffiti and chucking of litter quite serious offences, punished by flogging: with the caning done in public, on top of Primrose Hill, on Sunday afternoons
So far that's my only policy, but I reckon it's a winner. I may make it my only policy. Also I'd get rid of telephone kiosks that now look like badly run urinals
Compulsory drinking from the moment the sun is over of the yard arm?
Vintage 18th century glass sales to be available in every supermarket?
All rooms to be repainted in dark ominous colours?
Everyone to accept that aliens walk amongst us but are outsmarted by AI that will wipe us all out before the end of the six nations?
I will extend pub opening hours so they are 24/7,. except that all pubs must close at 8pm for 37 minutes, as this is when the King traditionally has an extended wank in the chapel royal by the Savoy Hotel, and it has long been deemed unseemly for his subjects to imbibe intoxicants even as the monarch is "knocking one out"
This will attract tourists charmed by quirky Briitish traditions, and reinforce royalism amongat pub staff
Chapel Royal is quite a long way from the Savoy. Did you mean the Ritz? Your manifesto is already falling apart.
FAIL
My manifesto is meticulously proof-tested and focus-grouped
There are several "chapels-royal" - one is right by the Savoy Hotel and is indeed known as the Savoy Chapel
Stretching a point, I'd say. But the King's Chapel is certainly better for privacy.
It is literally a "chapel royal"
"The chapel has been Crown property for centuries as part of the Savoy Hospital estate, and remains under the aegis of the monarch as part of the Duchy of Lancaster and thereby is a Royal Peculiar. It was inaugurated as a Chapel Royal in November 2016.["
You referred to "the" chapel (sic) royal (sic) not "a", and Londoners of a traditional bent (i.e. ignorant of twenty-first century paperwork) naturally think of the one next to Clarence House where Charles used to thank his lucky stars when he was in town for the weekend. But you are literally correct. London deserves you. At least you'd be better than Khan, who according to legend isn't strong on chapels of any description.

And money's a bit tight too.
Starting to sound like the opposite of the 'longest suicide note in history'.
Reparations from China for covid virus lab leak must be in the manifesto though.
I don't agree with all of it - in particular I think he overestimates the part played by leaving the EU, doesn't blame high taxes, as opposed to a flawed tax system enough, and barely touches on overregulation, except in our disastrous housebuilding industry, and the video doesn't exactly break new ground.
But it's a decent summary of the issues, especially how high taxes price people out of work and regulation out of housing.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3neJOdknqc
Now ask yourself if you can see Starmer and Reeves addressing any of them, as opposed to making them notably worse.
And then look out for airborne bacon.
Though it was the voters themselves who voted for the telegenic Blair and Cameron and their images over the more heavyweight Hague, Howard and Brown. I would argue Blair and Cameron were reasonably competent though even if both largely ideology and philosophy free certainly compared to the PMs we have had since and indeed Gordon Brown
His video on Neom in Saudia Arabia was a masterclass in dry sarcasm, it should be required viewing.
He gives good non-techinical explanations of technical economic matters. As I have spent much of my career doing the same I can appreciate when someone else does it well, even if I don't agree with all of his conclusions.

The other was advertising things funeral care, and suggestions for charity will donations.
He's not doing enough for those who support deeper involvement
He's doing too much for those against this war
He's upset those very keen on the special relationship
He will not do or say anything re Trump to cheer those who hate the SR
He's stuck with the bases in the UK and our intelligence sharing
He's not got enough leverage to change the alliance in any meaningful way
