Working hard? Nigel Farage registered ‘absent’ from the last 77 votes in Parliament. UK MP basic salary is £98,599 plus expenses, including second home. Since becoming MP Farage has collected £2m from other jobs. There are questions about his undeclared gifts.

Nigel Farage’s latest grift - plugging high risk crypto investments - has been lifted directly from Donald Trump’s venal presidency. If Reform UK’s leader is left unchecked his behaviour will prove nothing short of a threat to democracy. I explain in my column for @thenerve_news 👇🏽

Sadiq Khan tells me Keir Starmer was wrong to brand the Green Party as extremists and says the Prime Minister needs to do much more to win back voters from Zack Polanski's party, as Labour faces heavy defeats in next month's local elections bylinetimes.com/2026/04/24/i...

Google’s former Europe boss close to becoming next head of BBC, sources say

David Starkey just can’t help himself: now he’s talking about black people ‘dipped in chocolate’ The once-respected historian has descended into public racism again on his podcast. The even bigger problem is, he’s now an adviser to the hard right @sangitamyska.bsky.social 's Nerve debut 🔗⏬

The IDF have bulldozed part of a Gaza cemetery containing the war graves of British soldiers from WWI and WWII

Thank you for all the support and solidarity in 2025. Onward and upward in 2026! xx

No idea who Laurent Brindeau is, but isn’t this caricature of @zackpolanski.bsky.social in today’s @dailymailpolitics.bsky.social ragingly antisemitic?

Erika Kirk hosted a $10,000-a-plate black-tie gala at Mar-a-Lago this past weekend. Like every grieving widow.

“UK journalists go to Gaza, but still cover up Israel’s genocide” writes Palestinan reporter Hamza Yousef url:https://www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/even-gazas-ruins-uk-journalists-are-still-sanitising-genocide

If BBC News was a hotbed of left-wing wokery producing *systemically* biased coverage Jeremy Corbyn may well have been elected Prime Minister in 2019. It’s not. He wasn’t. And we got Boris Johnson instead.

Should Gibb be sacked? yes, obviously. He's an abomination of basic journalistic standards. His GB News channel spreads conspiracy theory & disinformation. His Jewish Chronicle newspaper spreads invented stories. He is plainly trying to undermine the BBC so it's as bad as everything else he touches.

💥NEW: Across the UK, vigilante groups are on the rise, patrolling UK streets in the name of “public safety”. In reality, many of these self styled "guardians" are little more than bullies with violent pasts. hopenothate.org.uk/2025/11/04/p...

Anyway, we need some joy, so here's the Egyptian foreign minister being given a Lego Pyramid by the Danish foreign minister.

When #Lbc James O'Brien pretends to oppose the spreading racism, do you ever hear him ask why its spreading? We live a country now, where there is literally an Orwellian 2 minutes hate, Immigrant immigrant, immigrant, hate hate hate, pushed by radio stations, like #LbcNews, ever 30 minutes!

Things that are simultaneously true: Antisemitism exists in U.K. & must end Maccabi fanbase incl a hardcore racist hooligan faction U.K. policing has been substantially under-resourced for years PMs & Home Secs should stay out of operational decisions made by police forces

I’m at the #NBPAConference asking tough questions in front of a great audience. It promises to be fascinating: BBC Panorama has chosen today to release its investigation into alleged racism, misogyny & abuse of power within the Metropolitan Police

When I hosted a show at LBC many of you wrote to me asking me to watch The Labour Files and to interview Martin Forde KC. In heavily biased legacy media environments doing that was a risk. But as journalists it’s our job to platform perspectives the public should hear without fear or favour.

If you see this, please share it. Then listen to the media to see if you hear them mention it.

Jimmy Kimmel’s show has been axed by ABC who claim the decision is down to falling ratings instead of his repeated criticism of powerful political forces and prevailing right wing narratives. Gosh, we’re so lucky that we live in a country where private media companies would never do that..

“What happened to me is part of a broader purge of Black voices from academia, business, government, and media — a historical pattern as dangerous as it is shameful — and tragic.”

Sangita @sangitamyska.bsky.social, with @novaramedia.com using her journalistic expertise as a voice on the ground at Robinson's racist march.

'The bravest people in the world' - huge thanks to @sangitamyska.bsky.social for a moving speech at last week's vigil. “A Palestinian journalist being killed is not just the death of one person -- it is the death of journalism.” #StopKillingJournalists See the full speech here:

⚡️The Trump administration has just sanctioned 3 leading Palestinian human rights organizations- Al Haq, Al Mezan, and PCHR. This type of action is normally reserved for terrorists & drug traffickers. The move will severely damage the orgs ability to advocate for and protect Palestinian Human Rights

It’s been an unexpected and unpredictable journey. Thank you for always being there. Happy Anniversary, Mr M x

I was honoured to speak at the vigil for Palestinian journalists killed during Israel’s assault on Gaza, organised by the London Freelance chapel of @NUJofficial. It was a shame a far right activist tried to disrupted the event. It matters not; hundreds of us turned out in solidarity.

If you have Indian (& especially Maharashtrian) heritage, today is a day of celebration. We honour Ganesha - the god who symbolises the removal of obstacles, wisdom & good fortune. So, to those who believe & those that don’t - I’m sending you good wishes. Happy Ganesh Chaturthi!

You couldn’t make it up…

Israel double tap strike. It murders journalists then sends a drone in to kill the paramedics trying to retrieve their bodies. A war crime, broadcast live and sponsored by the US and Europe. 🚨Boycott EVERY news channel that doesn’t show this footage today🚨

Murdering journalists is a war crime.

Lucy Connolly was not a hero, nor was she a political prisoner. She is, however, a case study in the psychological disorder of fake victimhood created and manipulated by politicians with a far right agenda. This is what she tweeted:

This is an urgent and important question from @adambienkov.bsky.social Again this summer, British citizens are being terrorised by the organised far right and the silence of mainstream media and our political leaders is astounding and dangerous bylinetimes.com/2025/08/20/w...

Do you know how insane and infuriating it is to live in a country where one party claims, with media and public support, the mantle of being the ‘tough on crime’ party while its leader openly calls for convicted criminals to be released from prison ‘or else’?

SNP members will use their party’s national conference to push the Scottish Government not to enforce the Palestine Action terrorism proscription north of the border, The National can reveal

Last year LBC ended my show after my interview with an Israeli official went viral. I’ve had lots of interview requests since then but I wanted to wait for the right outlet. Meet ‘Turn Left’: a volunteer led, independent, media org, who focus on reporting important news stories & political issues.

The Israeli Govt appears to be paying Google to place propaganda accusing UN for “deliberate sabotage” of humanitarian efforts in Gaza by failing to distribute aid. It does not mention the 766 people shot dead at US-Israel backed GHF aid distribution sites. Seen today on YouTube.

Nothing will embolden antisemites more than deals like this. One foreign country getting favored and special treatment, as well as protection from criticism, on college campuses at the insistence of the United States government.

One reaps what one sows.

“The court has found that punishing someone for sharing facts is illegal; I was punished for my political opinion”. Journalist Antoinette Lattouf wins her Australian employment tribunal against ABC News. She was unlawfully fired, after she posted a Human Rights Watch report about Gaza.

Sending thoughts and prayers tonight to Matt Yglesias, Jonathan Chait, Ritchie Torres, Charlie Kirk, Libs of TikTok, and many more.

“restoring stability in a region in tension” Ursula Von der Leyen’s latest statement remains as disconnected from reality as usual. #Iran #Israel #UnitedStates #Trump
