The tide is turning. Even the Telegraph is now admitting the damage the Brexit deal has done to the economy.

The COPs in a nutshell

With all the Russia stuff with Farage it got me thinking of this again. www.theguardian.com/politics/201...

Bovine tuberculosis; badgers finally in the clear!

Starmer’s Labour Government is criminalising ordinary, decent people because a foreign government demands it.

Why wouldn’t you want to know? What have you got to fear? Losing your precious Brexit? Being revealed as a traitor and a liar? Surely, anyone decent and honest who genuinely cares about our country and our democracy has nothing to lose from this. So, sign up. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

Hard-hitting truth-telling from UCL Prof Anthony Costello…. “The Covid Public Inquiry is a devastating critique of medical advisers, civil servants and politicians who led the UK to the worst public health disaster in a century. More than 230,000 deaths.” www.bylinesupplement.com/p/230000-dea...

Zia Yusuf has released a video saying "we need to talk about Zack Polanski." It's one way of distracting from talking about Nathan Gill. We also need to talk about Arron Banks. Here he is with Gill & Farage.

When Rishi Sunak made the Vaccine deal with Moderna as Chancellor, he had up to £530m invested in Moderna. Now Michelle Mone is desperately bringing it up. Like if you want Mone on trial. RT if you want them both facing the music.

BREAKING: Police instantly start arresting protestors for silently holding signs which say they oppose genocide and the Palestine Action ban. Today's protest is happening in Tavistock Square, London — known as the peace gardens with anti-war memorials. Lift the ban.

Makes as much sense as this goofy peace plan!

Lots of reaction coming in to the COP30 deal. Most of it nuanced, but almost all featuring disappointment that the agreement is significantly weaker than had been hoped. www.businessgreen.com/analysis/452...

Farage can now be easily boxed in to a corner where his only ‘defence’ becomes: “Yes I spouted Kremlin propaganda & Putin worship but, unlike Nathan Gill, I didn’t need bribes to do it.” It is, once again, a question of whether interviewers have the temerity to shut down his whining obfuscations.

Reform UK in Leicestershire Council are paying consultants Newton £1.4m to do the job they claimed DOGE would do. Thats £4.72 per Council Tax paying household. It could rise to £30m they are paying Newton. Thats £101 per household in Leicestershire.

With over 20 million article reads under our belt, we’re very serious about building a grassroots citizen journalism alternative to the billionaire-owned mainstream media. And we can do it on an absolute shoestring too. That’s the revolutionary beauty of it. See 👉 chuffed.org/project/byli...

open.substack.com/pub/heatherc... “Not only does this agreement sell out Ukraine and Europe for the benefit of Russia—which attacked Ukraine—it explicitly separates the U.S. from NATO, a long-time goal of Russia’s president Vladimir Putin.” This is a complete capitulation to Russia - it’s treachery

‘America is British’. Heaven is ‘a socialist state’. David Attenborough is ‘anti-human’ – the startling theories of Reform MP Danny Kruger

More powerful evidence of the disaster of #Brexit from @jonathanfreedland.bsky.social. If we’re to avoid yet more austerity, we need to start by rejoining the customs union & single market. Brexit was a reckless waste of money we simply can’t afford @europeanmovement.co.uk

Having Johnson & Cummings in Downing Street when Covid struck was, just like Brexit, an entirely avoidable disaster caused largely by utterly appalling journalism. And now exactly the same clowns, arses & bigots with bylines are rolling out the red carpet for Farage. www.thetimes.com/article/1b15...

Eat out to Help Out was killing people, but they “kept it out of the news”.

We have called for heat pump subsidies to be gradually reduced over time (crucially, in conjunction with action to make electricity cheaper, which does not seem to be happening). But just knee-jerk abolishing the subsidy at the Budget would be up there with the great climate policy disasters

We sold our water to foreign billionaires. Now we’re handing them our health data.

“Dyson benefitted from preferential treatment” because Michael Gove, issued “an instruction” to place an order for 10,000 ventilators from Dyson in March 2020. According to the Government Chief Commercial Officer, Mr Gove was “insistent that an order be placed”. Russell Scott, Byline Times

Why on earth would we be shovelling even more money in their direction?

Sorry @theipaper.com but WHY is this guy talking to us about what will make the UK poorer? He was happy to grenade our economy twice… Brexit and then his batshit budget with Truss. He should be in political oblivion for the mess he made and the price we all have to pay for his party’s failures.

Trump is clearly insane. No decent, sane, individual (let alone a 'president') with any dignity would post a video of himself on social media to be seen around the world shitting on his own citizens! There is no way of passing this off, he's fucking demented and the whole world sees it!

Such a pity no-one told Israeli Defence Forces there is a ceasefire ... "Israel has violated ceasefire 47 times and killed 38 Palestinians, says Gaza media office" www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

In full view of its complicit allies, Israel continues to slaughter entire Palestinian families in Gaza.

🔴NEW🔴 Thread 🧵 @bylinetimes.bsky.social can now reveal that, during the crucial period when convicted Reform leader Nathan Gill was most active, working directly with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s most senior ally in Ukraine, he was also one of Nigel Farage’s closest confidantes 1/12

Free Greta Thunberg

Leaving the ECHR will now be Tory policy.... due to issue of dealing with migrants. But would we be throwing the baby out with the bath water & open door to a world of fewer freedoms?

Let’s share this to get the polling more fair.

When Reform's Nathan Gill is sentenced for bribery, he will be the third of Nigel Farage's former MEPs to be jailed for being corrupt, after Tom Wise (expenses fraud) and Ashley Mote (falsely claiming benefits). What is it about Farage that attracts crooks?

Nigel Farage & Alex Phillips have been awfully quiet about Nathan Gill pleading guilty to eight counts of bribery relating to pro-Russia statements made in European parliament and articles. Just wanted to refresh their memories about how they were all a team through that period.

All of this data consolidated with your #DigitalID. If you upset the billionaire fascists they can just flip a switch and you cant access anything.
