In Sabah politics, the conflict is fundamental: 🩵 local parties fight for MA63 rights and state autonomy against 💜 federalist coalitions whose priorities often align with Peninsular interests rather than Sabahan sovereignty.

Labour Doorstep, Mount Pleasant Ward, Chepstow

Today, I was out doing #labourdoorstep with Marg and Vanessa from Chepstow Labour Party Branch in a nice area where people were happy to engage and the general feeling was one for a change in government at the next #generalelection It is always fun going out with Vanessa as she is from South Africa and we always have banter over the rugby as I am a big All Blacks supporter, being half-kiwi and a New Zealand national.

You cannot trust a thing Watford’s Liberal Democrats say in their leaflets. They literally lied about the #GeneralElection result. If they can’t even tell the truth about that then what else are they lying to us about? Don’t believe Lib Dem leaflets! https://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/news/25621655.lib-dem-graph-lies-watford-vote-blamed-typo/

With all the #votes now counted in the #Netherlands’ Oct 29 #GeneralElection, the far-right #FreedomParty led by Mr Geert #Wilders – a politician who gained notoriety with his hate-filled speeches against #immigrants and #Islam – has suffered a shock electoral reversal, holding only 26 seats in the country’s 150-seat #Parliament.

The next Dutch government is now almost certain to be formed by the Democrats 66 (#D66) party.

The Great Upset: Nigel Farage just passed Keir Starmer - for the first time EVER - in the PM IPSOS preference poll, 33% to 30%!
-> Westminster is in panic mode. Is this the end of the two-party system?

As the #Tories crumble, and support for Labour declines, a growing number of political commentators are now seriously considering the possibility the next #GeneralElection could be between #ReformUK and the #GreenParty!?
