The worst thing he could say is that Reform aren’t standing anymore, but I think they’ve not had the influence he thought he’d have yet, so his ego might not be ready to admit defeat yet.

No way he'd do that unless he's struck some sort of mad deal with Sunak, which I can't see.

they are going to regret letting Badenoch out aren't they? She couldn't clearly read what was in a bag of crisps in a way you would understand she was talking about a bag of crisps

I watched that this morning agast at how the presenters let her come on and get away without asking her about the things that are really important to us , the labour guy was non stop corbyn whatever he tried to say . I think gmtv are tory leaning
 
Just seen the details of my area and for first time in years labour is second to the. tories instead of lib dem and very close , an upset might be on the cards for once ! If the oldies dont vote that is

Dont forget to get your id done in time

Depends on what he wants for the country vs what he wants for himself.

Hopefully he’ll love being the kingmaker in giving Labour the biggest majority win of all time.

He's joining the Conservatives and abandoning Reform
The same avoidance deal he did last time
He's standing against Diane Abbott (no, obviously he won't, it would require work and be embarrassing at the count)
He's standing against a notable Conservative (Sunak?! or where one has stepped down - Dover maybe).
He's declaring war on France.
Announcement of a new grift.

Not that any of these justify the use of the term 'Emergency'.

He might be in a dinghy setting off for France!

Who knows. Tice hasn’t said anything about it, which may or may not mean something!

He has now apparently: Richard Tice has confirmed the 4pm presser is definitely not about standing down candidates and will not deny Farage is standing for Westminster.

It has to be that he's standing. Farage is pompous, vain and self-important, and being accused of bottling standing is probably uncomfortable.

I don't see any reason for Farage to make a pact, as it's still likely to be backing the losers. It also risks his own supporters disdain, as Reform voters have a much more negative view of the Tories than Brexit voters ever did.

The Tories are absolutely desperate and don't have many options, but as has been said elsewhere would it make sense for Farage/Reform?

If they do let Labour in with a massive majority then they have to wait 5 years before they have any influence again so they may well do a deal.

More importantly his US grift Donald could be banged up come election time so there will be no money for him there so he may as well chance his arm here
