Labour MP Zarah Sultana has been having a bit of a to-do with Reform UK on Twitter. Here’s what the MP had to say after its leader announced a Reform UK rally in Birmingham in March.

It was presumably spotted by Reform UK chief whip – chief whip! – Lee Anderson, who responded with a picture of all of the party’s five MPs along with the message, ‘Meet the future’.
Note to @zarahsultana
Meet the future

And it prompted no end of funny and totally on-point responses …
What, Reform will still have just 5 MPs in the future?

The future is, five MPs?
Not quite the zinger you think it is, Lee.
I thought Nige was on the diversity hire trail but I guess it failed quickly.
What’s your ideas for the Ukraine/TrumPutin crisis?

A bunch of crinkly, mediocre, pale, male and stale ham people. If that’s the future, then god help us all.

Never seen a picture lacking so much political ability, policy or vison— dave lawrence (@dave43law) February 19, 2025

The future? It looks like the cast of Cocoon. https://t.co/1Gj66mIsyb
