Trump spoke last night at the luxurious annual Al Smith memorial dinner in New York. It rasies money for Catholic charities supporting children…
The candidate, who’s now the bookies’ favourite again, took some time to dig at Harris’ latest campaign effort: winning the white male vote.
“There’s a group called ‘White Dudes for Harris’ have you seen this? White Dudes for Harris… I’m not worried about them at all. Because their wives and their wives lovers are all voting for me every one of those people in.“
It’s tradition that most candidates turn up. Kamala couldn’t find the time…
After just 14 months in post the SNP’s chief executive Murray Foote has resigned this morning. Foote says that amid the party’s “substantial process of internal re-organisation and renewal” he can’t “make the necessary personal commitment to leading the delivery of these changes into 2026 and beyond.” He’s had one Foote out of the door for a while…
Foote, former Daily Record editor and SNP comms chief who resigned after miselading journalists over the party’s membership figures, is also known for such embarrassing takes as: I will bet money on there being no charges in Operation Branchform. We saw how that one turned out…
The SNP’s terminal decline continues as trust in its ability to govern hits a new low. Trust in its ability to achieve independence died a while ago…
BBC Question Time host Fiona Bruce made yet another major slip-up on last night’s show. In an embarrassing attempt to defend Labour, Bruce wrongly claimed that their manifesto didn’t use the phrase “working people” in reference to national insurance. Has she managed to miss all the headlines this week?
The blunder was broadcast live on iPlayer at 8pm, and soon after, the official BBCQT account rushed to clean up the mess, scrubbing the part where Bruce tried to justify Labour’s expected tax rise. In a post on X, they sheepishly admitted:
On the live iPlayer version of Question Time tonight, we said that in their 2024 General Election manifesto, Labour didn’t mention the phrase ‘working people’ in relation to raising National Insurance. We are happy to clarify that they did and accordingly we have taken it out of…

The ‘fact-checker’ getting fact-checked – and not for the first time…
US Republicans were outraged yesterday over the co-ordination of Labour Party activists to campaign for Kamala Harris on American soil. Labour’s Head of Operations Sofia Patel advertised on LinkedIn that almost 100 party staff would be heading to battleground states and that their housing would be “sorted.” Republican senator Tom Cotton said it’s “yet another reason to vote for president Trump” and Marjorie Taylor Greene asked Labour to “please go back to the UK and fix your own mass immigration problems that are ruining your country.” Former Trump staffer Sebastian Gorka pointed out:“What would Starmer think if president Trump sent a team to campaign against him in the UK?”
Guido understands the Democrats are paying for all this, not Labour, and that party staff are going on their own time. As long as they remain unpaid the campaigning is of course legal. Having the Labour’s DOO organise pro-Harris intereference isn’t the best look for a government insistent on keeping neutral – especially considering Trump’s upgraded chances of victory…
The post is now gone from LinkedIn after scrutiny. Labour must have been hoping for this project to have gone under the radar…

Former leader of the SNP in Westminster Ian Blackford told Times Radio why he believes Nicola Sturgeon’s claim that she spent no time in the kitchen and therefore didn’t see any of her husband’s purchases:
“She doesn’t have a passion for cooking.”
