Even a broken clock... Inexcusably, even Nato countries have not cut off much Russian energy and Russian energy products ... They’re funding the war against themselves. Who the hell ever heard of that one? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Lib Dems at conference have called for Channel crossings to be referred to as "Brexit boats" in political debate.

Farage: "No one voted to let migrants in, so we will put our people first" Just because Brexiters didn't have a clue what they were voting for, doesn't mean it wasn't your fault. YOU increased boat-peeps from 1,835 a year pre-Brexit to 45,755 after. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Some European leaders believe Trump's aides are pressing for regime change in Europe. They see the US aiming to replace govts of the center-left & center-right with coalitions of the far right that align with their ideas of nation, religion, gender and cultural values www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/w...

“I will make sure The Independent does not get to attend a single one of our events or get a single interview again... You don’t want to ruin relations with a party leading the polls.” Revealing piece on how free speech advocates Reform deal with media. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

This breathless headline and article sums up what’s gone so badly wrong with the BBC’s treatment of Reform. Of course they should be covered, but where is the scrutiny here? Where is policy interrogated? Why no mention of their one dismal “achievement”, Brexit? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The Lib Dems are right. I know for a fact that a lot of Russian interference isn’t publicised. The Government needs to start calling it out every time it happens so that the public understands we’re at war,

Irony bypass?

An actual quote from the Secretary of State for Business and Trade Too often people go to university to ‘explore research and knowledge’ Look forward to Wes S saying 'too often people go to hospital to have operations' or Heidi Alexander saying 'too often people go to the station to catch a train'

Access to swimming is a huge gap between the richest and the poorest. With 30% from the poorest communities having access compared to 80%. Everyone, including nature, should have clean, healthy rivers. My report at the London Assembly: www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Next time a journalist gets next to Farage (I'm looking at you BBC). How about asking his opinion of this racist march. That will put the cat amongst the pigeons. UK faces ‘fight of our times’ against toxic division shown in far-right rally, says Starmer www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

Getting lost in statistics about numbers and semantics about ideology misses real issue: This is no "grassroots" movement. It is externally funded and organised. Its network ALL have X blue ticks and Musk beamed in to incite violence. Stop the dark money and astroturfing. The rest will soon wither.

How can the UK, with a defence budget of over £60bn, still be so unprepared for war? www.independent.co.uk/independentp...

The far-right mob in London paled into insignificance compared to our Remain marches. Especially the one in 2018. Between 700,000 and a million people turned out. The Labour front bench stayed away. They also ignored its message. But the voters who took part in it haven't disappeared. #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

Prisons across England and Wales are set to slash frontline spending on education courses by up to 50%, despite promises from Keir Starmer to improve “access to learning” in last year’s general election manifesto. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice

"Keir Starmer needs to be assassinated, someone needs to shoot Keir Starmer." I think this might be incitement to violence rather than Free Speech.

Tommy Robinson march calling for the assassination of the current Prime Minister..... "Someone needs to shoot Kier Starmer". There will be NOT A WORD said by the media current mourning Charlie Kirk. Not one call for calm.

Twitter is a lost cause. The owner of the app champions Tommy Robinson and overturning British democracy. Whatever progressive purpose or argument you are trying to advance is futile because you are playing against the house. The app is rigged against you. Just leave and start again.

Just a reminder that Labour told us we couldn't revisit the Brexit question because it would "strengthen and embolden" the far-right. Well, I don't know about you, but they look pretty strengthened and emboldened to me right now anyway, so what do we have to lose? #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

but when the Trump-era money dried up in 2020, Tommy Robinson went to the arms of Russia and has been a useful tool ever since

"We will outline serious cuts to the welfare budget" says Nigel Farage. So big tax cuts for the wealthiest and welfare cuts for everyone else

And if you believe that I've got a war for you to end on day one Reform UK leader vows to ‘stop the boats’ within two weeks if elected www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Angela Rayner resigns after accidentally paying the wrong amount of stamp duty. Farage deliberately avoids stamp duty by putting his constituency home in his partner's name. Also avoids full tax on his GBNews earnings... www.theguardian.com/politics/202... Result: nothing to see here, move on...

Nigel Farage is using a private company to reduce his tax bill on his GB News media appearances & other outside employment. He diverts money from his prime-time TV show into his company, which means that he paid only 25% corporation tax on profits, instead of 40% income tax.

At what point will the gammons begin to notice that, having destroyed the Conservative Party brand, the Tories basically exited then returned two minutes later wearing a Groucho Marx glasses-nose-moustache combo, saying: "Hello! We are Reform. Let's smash the elites!" www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
