Our democracy is a target, that's why I have called this emergency broadcast to tell the people of Rochdale to have another go next Thursday and see if you can do it right this time.

Evil prospers when good men do nothing; so we will now see if the actions that follow are as good as his word.

I think there is a bit more to this than meets the eye. There are certain gov depts that I work with that have upped their security. Sunak making this announcement was definitely not normal and has never happened before that I can recall, all I can say is that it was very interesting why he did and said what he did today, Hope I'm wrong in what I think may be a possibility.

And Sunak is a good man? Twitter has plenty of contributors remarking on the irony of our unelected PM banging on about protecting democracy - classic gaslighting.

He's not unelected. He is the new leader in the party that won the last general election. Same as Gordon Brown. Same across western Europe.

Perhaps he was referring to you when he made the point about people making false equivalences between the UK and other countries.

In this case claiming we have some kind of leader with no democratic mandate which you know yourself is absolute BS Bob

John Crace. A truly vile individual. His various social media platforms are awash with foul-mouthed rants at anything and everything that doesn't fit with his Islington, Ex Etonian politics.

He is Prime Minister because 202 MPs from his own party voted for him to be. That's not democracy in action and you whatabouting regarding Gordon Brown doesn't change that. -

I have never seen his social media posts but when it comes to sketch writing he usually gets it right. In this case it's a bulls eye!

Of course there is more to it than meets the eye.

Have you seen the opinion polls?

Have you seen the performance of the Tories (and Labour) at Rochdale.

It is 'painting by numbers' deflection. He can't declare war on Argentina so he has gone for the other staple 'the enemy within'.

Join up the dots, Gluey!
