In the latest episode of the Weekly Sceptic, the talking points are Nigel Farage's election surprise, Trump's absurd show trial and a bumper week for the 'Far Right' smear
Wielding her newfound omniscience, Joanna Gray reveals five game-changing messages that would guarantee victory in the General Election for any party that adopts them, starting with 'Women cannot have penises'.
In the latest episode of the Weekly Sceptic, the talking points are Rishi's poor campaigning skills, boring boring Keir Starmer and Nigel Farage's controversial comments about British Muslims.
New polling reveals just how hard Rishi Sunak's task is. The thought of the Tories staying in power is even less appealing to voters than the prospect of Jeremy Corbyn entering Downing Street was five years ago.
Rishi Sunak's proposal to introduce National Service has been met with widespread ridicule. But the Prime Minister is sticking to his guns.
Rishi Sunak's big new policy is "If you can vote, you should fight”, whereas Keir Starmer's is "If you can fight, you should vote". But is either what the country needs? asks James Alexander.
In a landgrab for Reform voters, the Prime Minister has announced that if re-elected the Conservatives would bring back National Service – although the policy isn’t as bold as it seems at first glance.
As Rishi Sunak fires the starting pistol on the 2024 General Election, voters are starting to look at where the parties stand on the issues. While manifestoes are yet to appear, here's what we know so far.
Rishi Sunak declared "now is the moment for Britain to choose its future" as he announced the General Election will be held on July 4th. Nigel Farage said Sunak has "chosen suicide over total obliteration".
In the latest episode of the Weekly Sceptic, the talking points are Sadiq Khan’s 3rd term, the take over of the Greens by Islamists – where are you, Hope Not Hate? – and whether Rishi’s right to predict a hung parliament.
