- When we asked Reform if they used NationBuilder, Richard Tice, Reform’s deputy leader, denied it. That denial was signed with a ‘statement of truth’. But we can now reveal that in July 2025, Tice and Reform had to make an embarrassing admission – Tice was wrong and Reform does use NationBuilder.

- The optimist vs pessimist divide in #climate debates isn’t usually about the data. It’s about how the same graphs are read, what people emphasise, what they discount, and how they interpret pace and stakes. Here’s what I mean 🧵👇

- NEW ANALYSIS: UK household electricity bills have risen over the last 5 years. BUT: Despite frequent claims that net zero is to blame: 2/3 of the increase is because of high gas prices shows new @ukerc.bsky.social report. Arguably without renewable energy the UK would see even higher bills today.

- this is totally unfair, they also don't work in the heat
- I understand Labour faces a largely hostile media environment, but its inability to make a big splash with genuinely positive news remains unfathomable. Like the Warm Homes Plan last week, this will make a big difference to the finances and lives of hundreds of thousands of people.

- I know I keep writing about this,but the level of delusion is staggering. How do so many people think Reform will 'save the country' when it’s led by defected Tories from the worst cabinet in UK history?It’s not change, just same failures,new logo,and people cheering like it’s a revival,not a rerun.

- It tells you everything you need to know that Reform are parachuting in a rent-an-extremist - this isn't about representing the people of Gorton and Denton, it's about using this place as a platform for their careers. Manchester will show him the door.
