🔴 ‘There’s No Money In Politics If You’re Straight’: How Farage’s Words Are Coming Back To Haunt Him The Reform UK leader once claimed that only the corrupt could make money in politics. Now questions about his own multi-million pound fortune threaten to bring him down

“Football must never become a playground for political power” - too late, FIFA is an utter disgrace. #Balogun

Labour Chair Anna Turley has praised the "radical change Labour has delivered" since PM Starmer's Labour Govt entered office, exactly two years ago on Sunday (5th) Labour says the PM "brought an end to 14 long years in opposition & saw the Tories kicked out of office after over a decade of failure"

Got to say. Hats off to whoever it was at the BBC, for their choice of photo to go along with this headline...

I wonder how #BorisJohnson is these days. Very quiet isn’t he 👀 #Crypto #UndeclaredDonors #ChristopherHarborne #QinetiQ #Tether #GeorgeCottrell #NigelFarage #Brexit #Russia #FollowTheMoney #JustSaying

Absolutely this ⬇️. Ask yourself WHY NOW? This information has been there in the background. It’s now unravelling thanks to investigative journalism that hasn’t just appeared… When Murdoch & Co do an about face one should always be cynical and ask why…

Oh dear, all of those chickens are coming home to roost. But is anyone really surprised? 🙄 The man is a grifting con artist only in politics for himself. The real question though is - when will he be kicked out? It’s not before time.

“Don’t go on Bluesky, dear readers, because people point out facts over there when we try to give them lies and propaganda”

Money aside (bad enough), are we now saying he hasn’t declared more assets/income? If the Standards Commissioner doesn’t suspend him for >10 days triggering a recall petition, we all need to take to the streets to protest at the state of our parliamentary system. The police should be informed too.

When an MP can pocket more in a couple of hours of “work” than a nurse earns in an entire year - as Nigel Farage has done - something is deeply broken in our politics. This has to stop. It’s time to ban ALL MPs’ second jobs. From my speech in Parliament today.

Given Farage has done sweet FA for Clacton they’d have to be bloody stupid not to want him out. But there will be some idiots. You can’t help or tell some people. But the importance is he knows he’s on borrowed time now. Without a seat in HoC how much use will he then be to his ‘gift givers’. 😏

Anyone else seeing the rumours that David Miliband is allegedly going to come back to be part of Burnham’s squad? He earns a literal fortune in NY (like over £900k equiv pa package) so I just can’t see it.

Farage is totally corruptible He must be sacked as MP to never return in any form !!!

Both gold & crypto provide an outlet for the rich to use to also avoid paying tax and dare I say, keep their activities private. No wonder they appeal to the grifting conman Farage.

Glad this is finally being aired in the chamber. The walls are closing in on Farage. His greed is going to get the better of him and it’s not before time.

John Major has definitely gone up in my estimation in the last few years… who would have thought it. But here we are!

🤔🤔🤔 www.channel4.com/news/the-ban...

PM Starmer today on the Defence Investment Plan He's announced a £15bn increase in def spending on top of existing plans, taking it to almost £300bn over next 4 years Annual defence spending rising from £54bn (two years ago) to almost £80bn by 2029, a 27% real-terms rise 3% of GDP next Parliament

Here’s a funny thing. I’ve just found a tweet from Jan 2020 asking what quid pro quo was for these peerages? In Part 2 of our series #HarborneReceipts Rupert Lowe alleges Tories offered them to Farage as part of a deal. Farage said he turned the deal down. But did he?

🚨 NEW: Resident doctors have voted to accept the Government’s offer on pay and jobs after three years of strikes

Exactly this, start a battle based on N/S divide & suddenly you begin alienating & causing even more division. I’m a northerner, NE born but have lived around U.K. The NE has felt like the poor relation since Thatcher. However, looking at AB’s plans, it seems nothing much might change for us 🙄.

And another one… dear god. Next he’ll be walking on water or splitting five loaves and two fish to feed the 5,000… Is anyone actually sense-checking this stuff before he opens his mouth? The fear of foreboding is very real…

If you aren’t already following and supporting @thenerve.news, you need to!

NEW: Boris Johnson failed to declare to parliament a gift of private jet flights from the same cryptobillionaire, Christopher Harborne who gave £5m to Nigel Farage, leaked documents reveal. New #HarborneReceipts investigation from @thenerve.news. 🔗 below 1/

This is utter b*llocks, think what you want about Bridget Philipson, but her mother buying her council house 33 years ago and selling it today really isn’t the story. The story is the Tories sold off social housing stock and never bothered to replace it. And that’s BP’s fault how? 🙄 #Grasping

Give me strength. Times headline today 👇🏻. Did I blink and King Burnham was crowned?

Let's keep signing and sharing! Signatures have increased 4.6% this morning! Can we get a 10% increase today overall?

30p hypocrisy is off the scale… they really are getting worse.

What would happen if Putin attacked the Baltics or Poland and the US - as seems likely - didn’t step in?

The sums involved in the MPs expenses scandal were chicken feed compared to the Farage £5m. HIs reaction - mind your own business - suggests he may not be cut out for this democracy thing app.prospectmagazine.co.uk/story/73952/...

Join the dots… they lead to Farage & Reform (and Johnson….) #FromRussiaWithLove

How the fuck can anyone experience yet another summer of increasing temperatures, causing hundreds of deaths, and not recognise the reality of climate change? But sure. Let's forget about net zero and drill up more oil. www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Yesterday I was asked by Sky News to do their PMQs show again. I was also asked about how I felt as I’d backed the Prime Minister- and I say what he said to a grumpy me on Monday…. Here’s a short clip from the show. I mention @holdthelinepac.bsky.social #PMQs #KeirStarmer #SKS #PrimeMinister

I can’t even begin to say how angry this makes me. No wonder conmen like Farage get away with so much dodgy sh*t. FCA claim it’s not within their remit… so they’re considering what they CAN do. Thanks to @13sarahmurphy.bsky.social for the post. Beyond a joke that he just gets away with this!

This is utterly horrific. No care whatsoever. Her poor family…

🚨Good on @annaturley.bsky.social - who has written to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), asking it to investigate whether #CryptoNige public pronouncements about Tether & other cryptocurrencies may have been intended to benefit his donor. The net is closing in 👏 nation.cymru/news/watchdo...

Just 25% of Brits now have a favourable view of Farage - his greatest trick has been convincing the world that he’s the voice of the people when polling has long shown the reverse.

Monday, LBC reported that team Burnham were "threatening" Starmer that if he didn't resign immediately they'd be ministerial resignations. Wednesday, same briefers, Starmer's bad for not hanging around until our coup manipulations and bargaining is complete.

#CryptoNigel Farage is in trouble isn’t he. It’s finally coming for him… I just wish they’d get on with it.

#CryptoNige dodgy dealings. He lobbied the BoE Governor over crypto in a private meeting. He got paid for Brexit by a crypto billionaire - what did Brexit do? It unshackled us from EU bitcoin regs & controls. Exactly what a crypto billionaire wants… www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I don’t give one what he spends it on. That’s the wrong focus. The concern is what he got it for, and the thing that is going to skewer him is that he DIDN’T follow required procedure and DECLARE it when he should have! Still, it’s nice to see questions are still being asked!

Lib Dem Leader Ed Davey has unveiled a billboard campaign across the UK to mark the 10th anniversary of the Brexit referendum today. The billboards call out Reform leader Nigel Farage’s £5 million "reward for campaigning for Brexit, whilst people across the country feel the pinch."

10 years on… 60% of our young want to rejoin the EU. Meanwhile, our potential new PM says “I am not proposing rejoining the EU”… That’s going well then… www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

#DarrenJones is keen to pour cold water on the rumour he is going to run… Sky News just now. Looks like ‘King’ AB will get his coronation… finally. Three time’s a charm, eh Andy 😒

What could possibly go wrong… I despair.

Rather than a General Election, I think I'd favour a full investigation into Nigel Farage's finances.

“They won’t get another chance” a warning I’m hearing repeated over and over. Let’s hope Burnham really is the second coming of the messiah that some believe… 👀

7 PMs in 10 years is utterly unacceptable. 🙄

Any new bets on who might stand? Someone decent needs to go up against Burnham.
