This is embarrassing. It's the only broadcast interview Kenyon has done all campaign (weird) and @GBNEWS choose to not ask about his attacks on women, self-declared sexism or equating abortion with murder. Softball, pro-Reform propaganda.
'They've been taken for granted that they're just going to vote for Labour. That tide is changing now.' Reform UK candidate in the Makerfield by-election Robert Kenyon, says residents have been 'ignored for the last 40 years'. 📺 Freeview 236, Sky 512, Virgin 604

A truly insane twist in the Salt Path story. Raynor Winn seemingly wrote a confession letter admitting to stealing tens of thousands of pounds from her own mother and her in-laws. It left them struggling to pay their rent. Winn said she was 'addicted' to theft.
Don't look for the money, I've taken it all' @chloehadj on Raynor Winn's alleged confession that she stole from her family. Watch more revelations in The Salt Path Scandal on @skytv, Monday 9pm, and read the full story on our website: bit.ly/4rWQ0IX

Did Keir Starmer give land to his parents via a trust, guaranteeing their estate, of which he was beneficiary, would never pay inheritance tax on its eventual value? Legal experts say yes.  Curiously No10 will not answer - despite having a list of straightforward questions for weeks and Starmer retaining a leading tax KC following our original approach. @DanNeidle, @manumidolo, @venetiamenzies and I have done our detective work regardless. Read the Sunday Times and Tax Policy Associates tomorrow to find out more!

NEW: Morgan McSweeney received a £50k donation for Labour Together on the *same day* he was warned he had a legal duty to declare his funding. He never declared it and years later the think tank later claimed it was an ‘admin error’ mol.im/a/15135739

Confession. I publicly opposed @ObserverUK leaving the Guardian stable. I now think I was wrong. It’s done really well. Today I have especially enjoyed Rachel Sylvester on ECHR and @kenanmalik on violence weaponised in the culture wars. And more to come.

Incredible @SamCoatesSky scoop. To appoint Mandelson, Starmer ignored: - 2 previous resignations for financial impropriety - A well-publicised friendship with the world's most notorious paedophile - AND warnings from his own security services

76% of extremist-related killings in the last decade have been committed by right-wingers. 4% by leftists. Trump, Musk and co are trying to paint political violence as just a left issue. It's not even close to true.
