You started well but then descended into a defence of the ECHR.

Just repeal the enabling legislation and the ECHR has no effect in English law. End of. Just ignore.

There's something highly amusing about listening to a Nigerian woman lecturing us all on what it means to be British. I couldn't help but laugh my head off.

All that said the Tory Party is irreconcilable, the two factions are so far apart not even the prospect of power is going to force some sort of internal armistice.

Many of us are waiting for the moment Reform either implodes or Nige pulls his usual stroke and decides to flat pack them. They won't get to 2029 in one piece, absolutely no chance.

We’re 4 years out from the next General Election. Enough time for people who have now jumped to Reform to consider jumping again to what the TV news will tell them is a proper party.

If the Tories want to win back votes from Reform, they will have to identify the chief weakness of Refom.

I have identified the key weakness. See:

Can the Tories wake up and beat Reform?

Tories have blundered for 14 years. Can they apologise, and reverse their errors?
