In the West Yorkshire borough of Kirklees, only the Green Party‘s group leader or Reform’s are in a position to lead the council. But Conservative councillors’ refusal to pick a side has been blocking progress, with two votes already failing to produce a winner. Ahead of another vote on 15 July, local Green leader Andrew Cooper told the Canary that Tory councillors should either “pick a side” or just “stay at home”. Green experience vs Reform incompetence In May’s local elections, Kirklees voters totally wiped out the Labour Party, whose previous administration had been incredibly controversial. On one side, this led…

Starmer was even more dangerous for disabled people than the Tories

Well, that’s it, Starmer has finally shuffled off. From behind his sad beige podium, the sad beige prime minister announced he would be resigning. Speaking outside Downing Street, Starmer boasted about ending austerity and working to improve Britain for all. However, for disabled people, Starmer’s short reign was even more dangerous than the Tories. When Labour got in, it was a small glimmer of hope; surely they couldn’t be as cruel as the Tories? But Starmer heard that and went ‘hold my beer’. Starmer’s Labour far crueller than the Tories From the outset, Starmer’s government has been focused on change for…

Speaking to Laura Kuenssberg, Jacob Rees-Mogg has argued that the Tories should step down for Reform UK in the Makerfield by-election. The problem with his argument is that Reform seemingly wants to replace the Tories, and so any attempt to work with them will just benefit Farage: Jacob Rees Mogg says the right needs to work together, and a vote for Restore in Makerfield will lead to Burnham winning (who he describes as a hard left semi-Corbynista!) pic.twitter.com/SctCXo1iRA — Saul Staniforth (@SaulStaniforth) June 7, 2026 Reform, Restore, replace In the clip above, Kuenssberg puts the following to Rees-Mogg: Nigel Farage had…

In a new video, leader of the Tories Kemi Badenoch has unveiled her latest desperate push to remain relevant. The problem is her new plan is to oppose something which enjoys almost universal support from the public: Starmer, Burnham, Farage, Polanski…These men have one thing in common. They all want nationalisation. That will mean companies run by politicians but paid for with YOUR money. There’s only one party that stands against their failed ideas and that’s the Conservatives. pic.twitter.com/vjQmRQ4V7n — Kemi Badenoch (@KemiBadenoch) May 24, 2026 Enjoy obscurity, Tories! In her tweet, Badenoch says: Starmer, Burnham, Farage, Polanski…These men have one…

Tory-Reform turncoat, MP Suella Braverman, is angry that Brits are leaving Britain. Falling immigration has not yet filled the void that exists in place of her soul. “The brightest and the best are leaving the UK,” Suella Braverman wrote in response to a Telegraph report featuring immigration stats from the Office for National Statistics (ONS). She noted that the position was untenable. The Telegraph reported that in 2025, 75,000 more Britons aged 16–34 left the UK — the highest number on record since the ONS changed its methodology in 2021. The brightest and the best are leaving the UK. This can’t…
