Faced with the usual hostile, loaded questions about Brexit and their policy on Non Doms, Farage and Jenrick knocked it out of the park in their responses.
Nigel Farage says, "the opportunities of Brexit have not been delivered."
Sky's @serenabarksing questions the Reform UK leader on the impacts of Brexit.

There is nothing socialist about a system of free movement that is used by multi-nationals to undermine wages. WATCH my Brexit speech today.

🚨NEW: The Adam Smith Institute (ASI) has endorsed Reform UK's "alternative budget" released today, claiming their analysis shows it would "finally get Britain's economy growing again"
Stephen Reader retweeted
They can't just break in to other people's countries
Who do they think they are?
Boat migrants?
I have been detained by Israeli security forces all day. Along with with MPs @labourlewis, @larabirdsnp, MSP Kate Nevans, former MP @SamTarry and campaigners from across the world, we were turned back because they don’t want anyone seeing their ethnic cleansing.

Today on #bbcpoliticslive they tried to shame & guilt trip @GHWTowler for being racist when he was 13 year old boy, back in 1982.
What's crazy is if we'd had been more racist as a country, all those white girls wouldn't have been groomed like they had been.
Labour let it slide.

"Reform's alternative budget released today includes many proposals that will finally get Britain's economy growing again.
Abolishing the Energy Profits Levy will play a crucial role in ensuring the country's energy security, which a recent ASI index ranked below Romania and Ukraine. Windfall taxes undermine the incentive on firms to be ready to drill when prices are high: without them, the UK's domestic energy supply will be far more secure, and the country will be less vulnerable to price hikes and energy crises. It will also lower electricity costs at a time of eye-wateringly high energy prices, which will cost the average family an extra £206 in the coming year.
The alternative budget's proposals will also give a desperately needed boost to housebuilding. Leaving the Aarhus convention, which paralyses planning reviews and raises costs for developers, will make it easier and faster to build new homes. Repealing Biodiversity Net Gain rules will also reduce costs and delays for housebuilders, 94% of which have been hit by delays due to the rule.
Taken together, these changes will mean more houses are built faster and for a lower cost - which will go a long way to solving Britain's housing crisis. If done right, planning deregulation like those proposed by this alternative budget could single-handedly raise long-run GDP by 7.05% - a rise of almost £3,000 per person."

Another car crash interview from Labour.
“That’s £190,000 per person…we could buy them all a house.”
This Labour govt are out of their depth. This is scarily incompetent. It’s no wonder Labour are bankrupting us and taxes are going up to pay for it.

Anyone believing that the Conservatives will go into the next election representing the right hasn’t gone to working class areas and spoke to people on the street, the pubs, and building sites etc
Zero chance.

What Shabana isn't telling you is that this review will take 5 months.
This is totally unacceptable. The authorities are hoping we will all just forget about this horrific murder.
Henry Nowak was just 18 years old, with his whole life ahead of him. His murder was a horrific and senseless crime, and my thoughts remain with his family and friends, who have endured unimaginable loss and heartbreak.
The Nowak family have shown extraordinary courage and dignity in their pursuit of answers. Henry’s case has raised serious and legitimate questions about whether more could have been done to prevent this tragedy, and about the response of public authorities in its aftermath.
An independent review will seek those answers.
I am grateful to Alex Chalk for agreeing to lead this important work. He brings considerable experience and expertise, and I know he will conduct the review with the rigour, independence and seriousness that Henry’s case demands.

The Tory's have moved above Reform Party in the polls. Unbelievable, when you consider the damage that Party did to our country over 14 long years. Have British people got so short a memory, as just 2 years after throwing them out, they are inviting them back in again! Lunacy....

Astounding Sunday Times investigation reveals new scandal in SNP’s Socialist Scotland:
800 NHS, central government, council and quango workers whose jobs no longer exist but remain on the public payroll because of the SNP’s ‘no public-sector redundancy’ policy.
Estimated cost of paying people to do nothing: £27m a year.
One NHS Highland worker has been receiving a full salary and benefits for 17 years despite not having a specific job.
The health board refused to say what the worker had been doing for almost two decades and how much they had been paid.
Likely cost to the taxpayer is expected to be far higher with several public bodies refusing to disclose salaries for hundreds of the workers awaiting redeployment.
