I agree with you. I also think Diane is one of those front
runners who are only fully appreciated by later generations.. I
was pleased Angela spoke up for Diane, and I think she is
potentially a future leader of the party. Both are conviction
politicians not careerists.

Yes. He was on Question Time last week and it was mentioned.
I can see him campaigning in Jaywick-on-Sea.

Good. The more votes Reform gets, the better, provided they
don't get any MPs, because they take votes mainly from the
Tories.
Reform is hard-right, but I wouldn't call it far-right - that
usually refers to neo-Nazi and neo-fascist groups like the BNP.

Will the first televised debate between Sunak and Starmer look
something like this?

Thanks, Val. I'm still confined to a wheelchair or more usually
getting around the house with this kind of Zimmer frame:
