The UK broke an energy record on November 11, 2025, with 22.7 GW of installed capacity and over 50% of its electricity generated by offshore wind turbines. Better with Labour ?

SURPRISE!

NEW: This is worth your time. @thenerve_news has the receipts. A comprehensive timeline of Nathan Gill & Nigel Farage’s pro-Kremlin influencing activities & 2 other MEPs, David Cobourn & Jonathan Arnott. Please read & share.

Boris Johnson didn't apologise to Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, even when she told him in person the lasting impact his comments about her had on her detention in Iran, her husband tells the BBC

Powerful piece by @drrachelclarke.com on the COVID inquiry. Those who say it’s easy to be wise in hindsight are being utterly disingenuous. Many of us spoke out at the time, and it’s in the public record. @independentsage.bsky.social observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

They were 2 of the very first dogs I ever saved. Britney and King Whacker were as good as dead. To see them meet up this week in Scotland brought a little tear to my eye. Look at their little jackets for the cold!

Turns out the media & most of Parliament is as out of touch with reality as Twitter. Dear England.

If you need a smile today this is it. Stormzy wanted to show you something he’s been working on ❤️

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.

This is really good news! People across UK are to benefit from easier access to local services as councils get digital boost through a new government unit, GDS Local. It has launched to help councils make everyday services easier, faster, & more accessible. GDS = Government Digital Service. 1/3

The PM getting on with the job, despite the media faux-outrage. £400m worth of deals being unlocked for UK businesses to build & maintain trains, planes & submarines for other countries, as the PM heads to South Africa for the G20 Summit. www.gov.uk/government/n...

Stephen Kinnock, "On food, let's get a better Brexit deal so we can reduce food costs because so much of the inflation in food cost is from the totally botched Brexit deal which ended up with massive import prices" Fiona Bruce, "Forgive me for interrupting"

So as Nigel Farage has a good buddy & a long time prominent member of his Reform party jailed for taking Russian bribes, the BBCs Chris Mason thinks it is Keir Starmer who needs to be questioned over his leadership credentials. Stop the gossip journalism & seek out a real story… Farage & Russia.

Farage once again absent from the @houseofcommons.parliament.uk duing a debate on immigration! He prefers performative politics over real debate! #Reform #Grifters #WherIsClacton #Performative #Politics www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Richard Tice, March 2025: "I have never met Nathan Gill, and he has never had anything to do with Reform,"

Rachel Johnson defending her brother on @lbc.co.uk currently just blamed the "statest establishment" for the failures. "He's getting all the blame and none of the credit" and "he did his best." Really Rachel? Well his best was appalling. This wasn't a gold club tombola. It was a pandemic.

Extraordinary, when you think about it, that anyone could look at former *head of communications for Theresa May* Robbie Gibb & think ‘now that’s exactly the skillset we need a slice of’. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n...

"He's got plenty of things to say about plenty of things, apart from showing some leadership when it comes to racism."

Scrapped something I had spent the last week on because I woke up this morning and felt the need to tell this story instead. Me on Boris Johnson and the Tragedy (for us all) of the Covid Jester King for @noosphere.app www.noosphere.app/boris-johnso...

Ex-leader of Reform UK in Wales Nathan Gill is sentenced to 10 & a half years in jail for taking bribes as part of a pro-Russia influence campaign Gill was paid thousands of pounds to give TV interviews in favour of a key Putin ally and to make speeches in European Parliament, where he was an MEP

Gill’s sentence sets a clear legal benchmark – leaving the way clear for Parliament to finally hold a much-needed inquiry into Kremlin meddling in domestic affairs… This inquiry cannot help but look at events surrounding the EU Referendum bylinetimes.com/2025/11/21/n...

Bribery is a "malignancy" at the heart of British public life, says judge. The law responds with "stern punishment"

Nathan Gill has just been sentenced to 10.5 years in prison ...

Word of the day is ‘quockerwodger’ (19th century): a puppet politician whose strings are pulled entirely by someone else.

Ten years for Gill . Has Farage gone into hiding ?

Gill-ty as charged. I wonder if Nigel Farage will be giving a press conference on this one?

This is the key moment: Gill hosted this event for a spurious Ukrainian peace plan for Medvedchuk - who then flew the next day to boast to Putin about the support of MEPs

'You honestly think I can't get the eye test past these peasants?' @mrjamesob.bsky.social imagines the meeting between Dominic Cummings and his colleagues before his infamous Rose Garden apology during Covid.

Well, that's aged like rancid Surströmming wrapped in a durian nappy and shoved down a festival toilet in a gastroenteritis outbreak.

There are those who complain Starmer has no pzazz. See what pzazz did ?

Boris Johnson’s lack of leadership over the seriousness of Covid led to the first lockdown being introduced too late, which contributed to the loss of 23,000 lives, the official inquiry into his handling of the pandemic has concluded inews.co.uk/news/politic...

BREAKING: UK’s response to Covid was “too little too late”. Acting faster could have saved 23,000 lives in England according to the public inquiry. Boris Johnson presided over a “toxic, sexist, chaotic culture” in No10, where rule-breaking seriously undermined public confidence.

Baroness Heather Hallett, "Had the lockdown been imposed one week earlier than the 23rd of March, the evidence suggests the number of deaths in England alone in the first wave, would have been reduced by 48%, that's 23,000 fewer deaths"

Boris Johnson What he said: 20,000 more police What he did: 23,000 fewer people

So reading about Johnson’s incompetence today makes me super pleased we have Starmer. He might not make sexy headlines for the media. Or be a laugh a minute. But you’d never see him hiding in a fridge or not understanding what the country needs in a crisis.

Incredible. The Chancellor rents out her house without council permission and there’s an enormous fuss and people saying she should resign. Reform members talk openly about genocide on Muslims - and, well - relative silence. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I don't think i'll ever lose my anger towards Johnson, Hancock, Cummings, the whole fucking shitshower, over the handling of the pandemic. As a nurse, redeployed to the frontline, it was one of the most terrifying, exhausting times of my life and my experience was nothing to some of my colleagues.

If this were business, it would be called corporate manslaughter, so let's not have anybody try to justify what happened #CovidDeaths #BorisJohnson #LivesLost www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

A very personal story of Covid tragedy and Dominic Cummings, which I wrote early in the pandemic in 2020. bylinetimes.com/2020/05/27/c...

If, like me, you lost a loved one in the UK’s deadly second COVID wave, this WhatsApp chat will confirm that the then government has blood on its hands.

UK Covid inquiry: Chairwoman of the inquiry, former judge Baroness Hallett, said the UK's response could be summarised as "too little, too late" Lockdown could have been avoided - but action came too late 'Chaotic' government with key figures criticised including Dominic Cummings & Boris Johnson

My thoughts are with all who lost loved ones or still struggle with effects of #Covid. Tho we knew it at the time, confirmation of the “toxic & chaotic culture” at heart of Govt; that they did “too little, too late” & that faster action could have saved over 20K lives is still horrifying

Next stop, half a million!

TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE. For shame, Mr Johnson and the team you pretended to lead. Preventable deaths on your hands. They will not return to us. You live on, rich and vainglorious. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

‘Too little, too late’: damning report condemns UK’s Covid response Report on handling of pandemic contains stinging criticism of ‘toxic and chaotic’ culture inside Boris Johnson’s No 10 www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Yeah but Carrie wanted her baby shower ...

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...
