Simon Heffer’s final pars in his review of Liz Truss’ new book.
Of all the best examples of the Westminster unreality machine, where parts of the illiberal metropolitan elite and press build someone up clearly beyond their abilities, she was by far the worst. Zero accountability, of course.

🚨🗣️ ANDREW ROBERTSON ON WHAT HE TOLD JORDAN HENDERSON AFTER THEIR MATCH TODAY:
“It's always special sharing the pitch with Hendo. We spent so many years together at Liverpool, winning trophies, fighting for each other and creating memories that will stay with us forever.
“After the match, we had a little conversation. I told him it was great to see him again, and we spoke about football and how things have changed since our days together at Liverpool.
“Jordan was an incredible captain and a massive part of everything we achieved. The respect I have for him will never change, regardless of which teams we play for now. Some relationships in football go beyond club football, and ours is one of them.”
❤️🔴 Once teammates, forever brothers. Liverpool memories never fade.

There seems to be a direct correlation between how badly Trump is doing and how often he abuses a reporter (invariably a woman) for asking a perfectly legitimate question.
And it feels he’s losing his shit more and more often, which suggests things are getting worse and worse
🚨NEW: Donald Trump lashes out at NBC reporter:
Q: Do the sexual allegations mean nothing to you?
Trump: “QUIET! Isn’t she a fresh person? You’re a horrible little reporter.”
(The reporter who press Trump on the sexual allegations was @albamonica)

Yet another ugly attack on yet another female reporter asking entirely legitimate questions. Second time this week. Lost count of number of times overall. Reporters need to defend their colleagues and then walk away. Trump yearns for the cameras. Take then away from him.

Barack Obama decided to hit Pete Hegseth with the elbow from the top rope. Absolutely brutal takedown.

Here’s a good, brave letter (NYT?) which deserves recycling. I wonder if trump’s got the FBI to raid the author’s house yet ?

The wrong man in the wrong place: my SKETCH of Farage in Plymouth. Or, as he calls it, Portsmouth. thecritic.co.uk/farage-lands…
ALT “There is a big fishing fleet here in Portsmouth!” Nigel Farage announced. It was a line that would have gone over better had he not, at the time, been addressing a rally in Plymouth. Some in the crowd actually booed. It may be a mistake to let him do these things after lunch. For all the big cash donations, Reform is going through a tricky period at the moment. It’s increasingly clear that half the people working for the party are actually undercover reporters, assembling evidence that will force the other half to resign. So it’s no wonder that its leader is avoiding the tedious work of being a minor party leader in Parliament in favour of splashy feelgood events in locations that, in future, he’ll write on the back of his hand before he goes on stage.

I’ve just watched A Year In Reform. It was like watching Harry Enfield & Chums. Farage has united every misfit, malcontent and knob in Britain. Well done ITV & god help us if the useless Farage & his collection of morons ever get anywhere near government.
Different levels of grimness in this mornings news
- very, very, very grim Australian MP loses both legs after car attack
- very, very grim Care Homes woefully neglected during COVID
- very grim, inflation spikes in the UK
- grim, drilling gets go ahead in North Sea

The shocking thing about the @ITV Reform exposé is that I wasn't shocked at all, it showed the root & branch Reform members to be exactly as I thought them to be, vile, racist, xenophobic, misogynistic bigots. The actual shocking thing will be that people will still support them

Genuinely feel sorry for this young married couple.
Apparently their suitcase containing the lubricating gel, whips, little blue tablets, open crotch tracksuit trousers, flap moisturiser and anal fungus spray has been lost by British Airways.
Their honeymoon is ruined. 😔

After watching that ReformUK expose on ITV last night I feel sick in the stomach that people who walk amongst us would actually vote for Farage and his racist cohorts.
Absolutely disgusting political organisation.
Toxic leaders of our generation who just have to go for the world to be a better place:
Trump
Putin
Farage
Infantino
These are just the easy ones. Other suggestions?

Party to celebrate Ian Hislop's 40 years as editor of Private Eye & 65 years at the magazine. Has anyone currently in public life held the same job for longer? The Eye is the greatest journalistic institution of my lifetime. Long may Ian and the Eye reign.
Really, just how customer centric is your organisation? tim53e.substack.com/p/mind-t…

This is quite the about-turn.
Trump threatens to sue the BBC for $10B -> the BBC calls his bluff -> Trump panics -> the BBC are now pursuing Trump.
Outstanding.
This shows that when you stand up to the big bully, he'll almost always back down.
