Reform probably will do very well in elections this year, beyond that who knows, but don't rule them out, especially with what is going on in US.

It baffles me that people think they are on ‘their side’ but I guess that’s where we are following years of lives being made worse with no glimmer of hope?

About time this website allowed bluesky posts to be embedded and not twitter.

Jenrick is an appalling racist c**t, just hoping to stay relevant in the hope he gets another go.

@eFestivals any updates on this ? I believe Glastonbury in the latest announcement didnt post anything on twitter ... so this would be very useful going forward

I can mostly answer this.

A month ago Bluesky hadn't released an API for embedding content. I don't know if it's become available yet (do you see them on any other sites?), but Iggy is hoping to be able to integrate bluesky content on a lag from when such features become available.

 

Also worth noting that even if Bluesky release it, on the forum side that might involve waiting for the forums software to upgrade to include it, then for eFestivals to perform the upgrade and tweak the settings to set that forum upgrade live.

 

So it is a feature in the to-do-list, but a month ago it wasn't possible.

jeez wtf.

That is hilarious after what Farage said this morning. But Musk must know that Reform are nothing without Farage...unless he's been in cahoots with Anderson or Rupert Lowe or even Jenrick.

Elonigel’s honeymoon is over: 

 

 

All the replies to this on the cesspit of X seen to want Mr Holly Valance in charge.

 

[steviewevie]

Wonder how long before he turns on Trump.

[Crazyfool01]

just absolutely bonkers ... Reform are screwed without Farage ... popcorn out though the infighting has been brewing for a bit . Backing of Yaxley Lennon isnt gonna win anything luckily as I dont think the UK is that extreme yet although Musk is working on it 

[steviewevie]

Actually could work out well for Farage, distance himself from Musk/Robinson and go after more moderate Right vote...which is bad news for Tories.

The longer the 4 years go on, the more likely it is it'll implode. The midterms at the end of next year is my latest guess.

The thing is I don’t think Jenrick really believes it and is just throwing red meat which in many ways is worse.

whatever he believes, he should be sacked for that.

[steviewevie]

Musk along with his alt/far right twatter friends are bigging up Rupert Lowe to take over Reform, seeming to not realise Reform is just a company mostly owned by Farage.

He is also doubling down on the whole Starmer and rape of girls thing, utterly appalling loony conspiracy bullshit. Just ban twitter, f**k'em.

[steviewevie]

Badenoch desperate for Musk support.

[steviewevie]

Starmer does a speech on NHS waiting time plans, and all anyone asks about is Elon Musk and grooming gangs and that's how it works.
