The Times has done a great deal to shove Farage in our faces, peddle his Brexit, ignore his lies, downplay his racism and misogyny… But it doesn’t seem willing to have him behaving like a total spoilt brat crybaby when asked to come clean about his money. Better late than never. He can never be PM.

SUVs are higher at the front and three times more likely to kill a child when they hit them. SUV drivers drag the child under their vehicle, and then they crush the child to death. It's incredible that SUVs don't have higher tax, and why not lower speed limits. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

#EU makes itself a laughing stock amongst both #security and #climate specialists. Methan-emitting livestock #farming is a clear and present threat to national and collective security as it undermines climate security directly, thus jeopardising the basis of comprehensive EU security.

There are some crimes that happen all at once, with smoke and sirens. Then there are the quiet ones. The kind committed with a pen. The Trump administration’s decision to open endangered species’ habitats to development won’t make the evening news the way a hurricane or wildfire does.

They say sadomasochism is a niche subculture but here we all are watching England play.

Another 30 minutes of this. Great.

Nigel Farage rents a Studio that he owns from HIMSELF for £10,000, this means he doesn't have to declare it in Parliament, doesn't have to pay corporation tax on that £10,000, and because he is paid in rent doesn't have to pay NI tax either. Close these tax dodging loopholes.

3/ Irony number two. I was told for years that climate change is a hoax and British summers aren't getting hotter. Now the same voices demand to know why Britain never installed AC. You cannot have it both ways. The case for cooling IS the case that the climate is changing.

I wonder how many "you can't say anything these days" types are losing their minds over the comedy gold instigated by Fromage.

Heatwaves will continue to worsen until we stop burning fossil fuels and reach net zero.

Horrifying!

This is correct. Count Binface is not funny. But Nigel Farage having to stand against him/it as his main rival categorically is.

London is boiling these days But no matter how hot it gets The priority for the left, liberals and right wing is economic growth that is killing life on this planet BBC newsnight panel were virtually screaming growth growth growth and were not talking about growth of nature

Will be funny when Farage loses by like 6 votes to Count Binface after losing 43 votes to Lozza Fox

Nigel Farage has put corruption on the ballot in Clacton Now we need to make sure that the by-election is fought on a single issue: cleaning up the rot in British politics New by me on Democracy for Sale: democracyforsale.substack.com/p/farage-cor...

BBC Necromancy

One is a joke candidate. Someone who if elected has no interest in doing the job. A candidate who is only in it for media hits, to raise their profile, and stroke their ego. A candidate who just lives to enrich themselves and cares nothing about us humans The other is @countbinface.bsky.social

In politics, we’re torn between ideals and practicalities, aspirations and realities, the world as we want it, and as we find it But one day a manifesto comes along that reconciles both in every pledge. A rare moment of clarity and hope

There must be a Yorkshireman in Clacton who is getting ready to approach Nigel Farage with the question "Hey Nigel, where's tha bin?" It's only a matter of time.

When the previous ocean record for June was set in 2023, scientists described the trends as “worrying”, “terrifying” and “bonkers”. This year, temperatures are even higher.

On my way, Clacton.

Any Clacton residents who want to nominate your friendly neighbourhood intergalactic space warrior, ping me a line!

Just imagining a scenario where England won the world cup and Count Binface won the Clacton by election...

4D chess, Matt Goodwin called it

A by-election designed to prove his strength could instead make him look needy, rattled and exposed.

So Farage will roam the streets of Clacton (he'll need a map, he has no local knowledge) talking to random strangers and sycophants and shaking his fist at the clouds for the next few weeks while everyone else ignores him. Enjoy!

It's going to be an interesting by-election campaign!

🚨 BREAKING: Labour says it won't stand against Nigel Farage in the Clacton by-election As it stands, only Count Binface will run against Farage

"The establishment fears me so much they don’t dare face me in a by-election that will define the future of THE PEOPLE.”

I so much wanted Egypt to win. Bugger!

The seven ages of a grifter: NewAge; NearAge; FarAge; VerbiAge; WastAge; TrumpAge; OldAge. We're now in TrumpAge.

Farage will actually have to go to Clacton now

That one's for the Donald; the next will be for the Infanta.

Director of a Gaza Hospital, Dr Hussain Abu Safiya is in horrific danger to his life. The Foreign Secretary must demand Israel provides urgent treatment and releases him. He's been detained by Israel without charge since 2024 and reported to have new life threatening injuries.

Nottingham is the only Russell Group university that will have no modern language provision at all. The East Midlands is becoming a language cold spot. It's not too late to reverse the cuts and closures. @uonucu.bsky.social has a fully-costed plan to save our university.

Whew and Woo Hoo!

How's Rorke's Drift doing?

And gentlemen in England now a-bed Shall think themselves accursed they were not here

I have never seen a game this crazy!

Well - let's just make this a little bit trickier, shall we?

We're 2-1 up and I'm terrified!
