Majority of voters think Farage was wrong over undeclared gifts

As we’ve extensively reported, Nigel Farage is facing criticism over the various gifts and donations he’s failed to declare. He’s also facing multiple investigations into the same cases. Unsuprisingly, the public is largely unimpressed with this state of affairs. Farage spent years complaining the establishment ignored “the will of the people”. Now 60% of voters – AND half of Reform voters – think he behaved incorrectly over gifts and donations. Funny how quickly “the people” become “the establishment” when they stop believing Nigel… pic.twitter.com/3AVuhYD0dd — Liz Webster (@LizWebsterSBF) July 13, 2026 Nigel Farage vs the public Farage has multiple ongoing scandals…

Reform accepted a £50,000 lobbying trip to Israel whilst telling voters they’re the party of change

Reform accepted a £50,000 lobbying trip to Israel whilst telling voters they’re the party of change

The Israeli government spent over £50,000 trying to launder its image through Reform UK officials during a private tour last November. A senior party member quietly toured occupied Syrian territory and visited extremists’ police headquarters with a sanctioned far-right minister — a newly leaked financial trails reveal. This disgusting state-funded delegation completely shatters the party’s anti-establishment myth before it’s even gotten off the ground. Spinning a lobbying web This pricey trip is not an isolated incident. The Israeli state is hedging its bets and aggressively courting Reform UK as it surges in public opinion polls. Leaked data bills the trip to…

Faiza Shaheen tells Burnham: abandon Israel to win back voters

Former Labour candidate Faiza Shaheen has told Andy Burnham what he needs to do if he’s to win back the voters Keir Starmer drove away: #politicslondon asks, how can Labour win back lost voters?@faizashaheen: Build council houses.

Makerfield: Here’s what really motivated voters

The medium-sized town of Ashton-in-Makerfield, its ~70,000 voters and its historic by-election will forever be remembered in British political history for ridding us of Keir Starmer. And a good riddance it is! Who comes to replace him may be marginally better, more of the same, or far worse. It seems unimaginable at this point that Andy ‘U-Turn’em’ Burnham will be a significant break from the Labour mold. (See: trans existence, hostile immigration policy, water nationalisation, electoral reform or Gaza’s genocide.) Regardless of what Canary reporters make of Burnham, we find ourselves naturally sympathetic with the 55% of voters who backed him…

Burnham proposes land value tax as progressive voters sour on him

Speaking to Andrew Marr, Andy Burnham has suggested he wants to introduce wealth taxes in the UK: I'm no fan of Andy, but a land value tax is fucking based. https://t.co/AxK7i70YSt — Curtis Daly (@CurtisDaly_) June 20, 2026 If he delivers on this, it would be a more progressive direction for Labour than what we got under Keir Starmer. And there’s reason for Andy Burnham to talk up such policies, because the signs are that progressive voters are already losing patience with him.

Climate action could sway half of young voters in the UK

Half of young people under 34 in the UK say they would be more likely to vote for a government that upholds the UK’s climate commitments. This is a finding of new research by Kantar for the Fairtrade Foundation. Fairtrade is warning that climate change is putting everyday staples under growing pressure and threatening the livelihoods of the next generation of farmers. Ahead of London Climate Action Week, the charity is launching Fair on the Planet, the second moment in its 2026 Do It Fair campaign. It’ll highlight how farmers growing products such as coffee, tea, cocoa and bananas are already facing…

53% of left-wing ex-Labour voters ditched party over genocide

The Labour right and their friends in the media are constantly urging the party to become more regressive to appeal to Reform voters. As we’ve reported in the past, though, Labour actually lost four times as many voters to parties on its left. And now, we have a clearer picture of what pushed them in that direction.   EXCLUSIVE: More than half of former Labour voters who intent to back a centre or leftwing party in the next general election have cited the government's record on Gaza as a reason for abandoning Labour, new polling shows. — Harriet Williamson (@harriepw) June…
