Welcome news, but as with London, large, multicultural cities don’t often elect fascists… Long may it continue

“He told a court he entered the world of chemsex parties to help inform government policy.”
Perfectly reasonable.
I think I’ll try the same investigative line on Mrs MWS.
:Darling, I’m going elbow-deep into chemsex parties to understand what they’re all about — purely so we can better educate the kids.
Do bear in mind there may be crystal meth about the house, and my dealer might, at some point, accuse me of rape."
Sound good?

The recently appointed leader of Reform in Scotland has come in for some criticism about a homophobic joke he told when speaking eight years ago at his rugby club Burns Night dinner.
To be fair to him, he has always come across as a massive cunt so this sort of thing is not unexpected.
100 % a fucking hun.

Agreed.
Talking of which, some good news. Douglas Ross has thrown in the towel and will not be standing in the forthcoming Scottish election.

He’ll pop up like an unflushable turd as a reform cunt no doubt.

I lived in his constituency for a couple of years. Useful idiot for the toffs but hard to convey how much he is hated by local people. There’s a lot of southern incomers and ex-forces in the area who vote for anything in blue, sadly.

I did wonder how such a deeply unpleasant man devoid of any redeeming features kept winning elections.
No need. It’s not just the locals who loathe him, it’s a national pastime.
The Westminster votes were all very close and he only ever got into Holyrood on the regional list.
He went to school in Forres where he is still despised because of his bullying of girls, he really is deeply unpleasant. As well as being a Tory cunt.
FFS. What a creep.

I live in a strongly Labour area, but if the number of local election leaflets is anything to judge by, they’re running scared (presumably of the Greens). I think we’re up to four now, compared with everyone else’s one.
Nothing from Reform. And the Tories were like “CAR CAR CAR” which might be a strategic mistake where the majority don’t drive 
Reform have pretty much given up campaigning round here. Not because they don’t have a chance, quite the opposite. The council is a massive tory majority with rumors they are going to defect to Reform soon.
My MP is Cruella Racistwoman who is viewed as the messiah for racists, bigots and flagshaggers. She defected to Reform back in Jan.
I live in a pretty strong Labour constituency, our MP is Lisa Nandy. Reform came a fairly strong second in the GE, about 10k behind, everyone else was annihilated.
We had a council by election in a fairly deprived ward last year and Reform absolutely monstered it.
A lot of the people I speak to are pretty much all voting Reform in the council elections.Even some of the clever ones.
There been some very bad press about Wigan council lately, some pretty dodgy planning decisions ( https://www.instagram.com/astleywarehouseaction?igsh=eXhuMXFhN3l4dmdu ) and the usual allegations of local authority snouts in troughs (not unconnected).
Pretty sure I’ll be living under a Reform council in a month or so.
Hopefully reform win many councils so the public can see how shit they are before a general election.

They’ll blame their poor local delivery on being hamstrung by central government. Nothing will ever be their fault. Nothing. Ever.

The blame game in politics is a strong driver in people switching off. Hopes were high for Labour. The reality is they inherited a mess, but most people don’t want to get into that. They’ve got their own struggles and simply want less of them.

Apparently spotted somewhere on Shetland before/during the MP for Clacton’s visit
Anything to do with you, @pmac?
