Sounds familiar… On the one hand, I was told, I was close to losing the whip due to being too collaborative. I was later told that I wasn’t a team player either.
Reform reduced to 16 MSPs in Holyrood with resignation of Amanda Bland (she’s now an independent), which makes Scottish Labour the largest opposition party on 17. Reform sources say she “wasn’t a team player” & had lost 2 staff members since May. She’s yet to make a statement.

🚨 WATCH: Andy Burnham jokes about introducing "Tube Tunes" where people can play music on trains after certain times "After 7pm on Thursday, Friday, Saturday - you can do it and we all join in"

What a waste of Senedd members, literally just there to campaign for the next Westminster election, Reform are not interested in Welsh issues.
Vote Reform to stop the boats within 100 days.

🚨Within two minutes of appearing on @GMB, people were already posting abuse about my looks. Misogyny had reared its ugly head as I spoke the truth. Clearly my experience isn't unique within Reform. Sarah Pochin has even said it herself!

Exclusive @theipaper: David Blunkett has warned @andyburnham to be “extremely careful” what he wishes for with electoral reform. Blunkett - whom the PM has called a mentor - said PR could lead to Israeli-style politics where small parties with “outlandish views” call the shots.

Just witnessed a couple breaking up over a flat white in Gail’s Richmond on a Sunday morning, can we get some polling on likely VI’s @LukeTryl?

We have been told in response to the ITV sting "there is no place for racists or racism inside Reform". So why is Raheem Kassam still a member of Nigel Farage's inner-circle whilst he's directing racial slurs against Kemi Badenich. dailymail.com/news/article-1…

EXC: Labour divided over Andy Burnham’s plan for electoral reform Cabinet figures including Louise Haigh, Angela Rayner and John Healey sceptical of reform Several Labour MPs tell me they do not support a proportional voting system One MP says the prospect of relying on the Greens to govern makes them ‘physically sick’ w/ @matilda__martin politicshome.com/news/articl…

'Do we not wonder why online disinformation drops off a cliff when a Russian data centre is bombed?' Should government be given tools to fight online disinformation?

There are still people on the right who venerate this lunatic.
Donald Trump is threatening to cripple Ukraine in its survival—and to expose Europe to Russian aggression—seemingly for the pitiful prize of minimising his losses in next month’s midterm elections economist.com/leaders/2026/1…

Another day, another Reform politician facing a police investigation. Given Sarah Pochin’s comments in the ITV investigation about Reform having a ‘male issue’, I wonder what she makes of the cyberflashing allegations against Luke Campbell?
“They are so f*****g chauvinistic” A dire warning to any women thinking of becoming a Reform candidate.

Is the Reform project unravelling? Nigel Farage set out to build a mainstream, professional party. A continual drip-feed of scandals and mismanagement is dragging it back to the fringe Weekend long-read for @Politics_co_uk: politics.co.uk/2026/10/is-th…

The implosion of Reform hasn’t just occurred overnight. It’s been happening for the best part of a year now. But rather than put in place a strategy for addressing it, Farage and his lieutenants simply stuck their heads in the sand, and pretended nothing was wrong.

This is dull. Regardless of how you feel about X and Musk in general... its still a platform to communicate with the public. The SNP should know as well as the rest of us that any opportunity to shape opinion around the British media is hugely important.
🚨 NEW: The Scottish Government will quit X after the SNP voted to remove the party and public bodies from the platform
