Donald Trump is a racist. He has always been a racist. He will always be a racist. When someone shows you who they are believe them the first time.

“Getting rid of Morgan is our only way back..." why many Labour MPs now think McSweeney's exit is the only way to save Starmer's leadership and why some think it will just bring the Prime Minister down too bylinetimes.com/2026/02/05/p...

NEW Nerve investigation reveals extent of Palantir's enmeshment in UK state operations Peter Thiel's surveillance company has deals with government bodies amounting to at least £670m – inc. £15m contract with nuclear weapons agency By @carolecadwalla.bsky.social Charlie Young & Max Colbert 🔗⏬

UK govt accused of ignoring £2bn car finance tax loophole. Banks can't treat compensation as tax deductible expense. But motor finance divisions are registered as “non-bank entities". So they sidestep the rules, dodge tax. Govt can change the law. Will it upset its corporate backers?

Board of Peace - Season 1

To Jon Sopel, Trump's Davos speech was like a "Mafia gangster boss making his demands" – to Emily Maitlis he sounded "bored and not sure what he was on about." They estimate he stayed on script for ten minutes before veering off into threats and nonsense www.thenewsagents.co.uk/article/trum...

Thank goodness I'm not Angela Raynor, otherwise the press would have hounded me out of office.

Well worth a listen from Canadian PM Mark Carney at Davos summit.

NEW: NEW: Standards commissioner finds Nigel Farage committed seventeen breaches of MPs code of conduct. He failed to declare £333,000 in outside interests (more than 3x MPs annual salary)…

This speech by Trump surely marks the end of the transatlantic alliance. An American president itching to incinerate NATO, conquer Greenland, and get far-right parties elected to government across Europe.

Ball’s in your court, Prime Minister.

Trump says US will 'run' Venezuela until 'safe transition can take place'. He will install a puppet regime. US Oil companies moving in to boost profits. Free/fair elections are not possible under the US jackboots. People can have any govt as long as it serves Trump. Shameful chapter in US history

🚨 “Can I tell you how many times in the last 45 years the European Court of Human Rights has ruled against the UK when it comes to deporting people from this country - only 13 times - in 45 years” Please remember this in 2026 when Nigel Farage tells you we must leave the ECHR to control our borders

Happy New Year! In 2026, we keep building the citizen-based alternative to the top-down mainstream media. Join us! ✊

'Honest' Bob Jenrick will surely be furious when he finds out that the last Tory Govt lobbied hard for this (dual) British citizen to be freed from Egyptian jail - and if anyone tells him he was Immigration Minister and thus a part of that Tory Govt, he might even completely implode...

2025: Liz Truss criticising Keir Starmer over the release of Alaa Abd El-Fattah 2022: Liz Truss as Foreign Secretary trying to secure the release of Alaa Abd El-Fattah

My wife Bunty & I had the privilege of visiting Nigel Farage in his campaign office during the last election. He was so lovely & allowed Bunters to take a photo of him (shown below). There was absolutely no hint of him exceeding electoral expenses & being involved in fraud. 😊

I've said for years that the customs union idea will just confuse things. 1. People are mixing up "a" customs union with "The" Customs Union. 2. Neither is the Single Market. 3. Neither solves the major problems. 4. Neither includes Freedom of Movement. 5. Neither can be explained on the doorstep.

The budget didn't bother the powerful. No windfall tax on banks. Govt subsidy of £23bn+ continues. No windfall tax on energy companies, £125bn profit since 2020. Corporate profiteering and subsidies continue. No curbs on corporate welfare. 85,500 have wealth of £2.8 trillion, hardly touched.

👏🏽"We must all now confront the reality that the Brexit deal significantly hurt our economy. We have to keep reducing frictions. We have to keep moving towards a closer relationship with the EU. And we have to be grown up about it. To accept that it will require trade-offs."👏🏽 Music to my ears. ~AA

Oops sorry we ruined the country and everything we voted for was a lie. Our total bad. Anyway, how about those bloody migrants eh??

Fairly certain Kemi Badenoch is hoping that nobody has noticed this. Pretty brazen...

Can’t remember budget ‘case studies’ ever being quite so funny. Especially in newspapers that recently anointed Liz Truss a fiscal genius.

Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement. Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph Because this does NOT add up! No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies… 🧵1/9

The sheer scale of media outrage this week about plans to lift hundreds of thousands children out of poverty, by taxing millionaire homeowners, tells you everything you need to know about the real priorities of the British press www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/the-real-b...

“Speaking outside his chateau in France…” I kid you not. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is how the Mail has covered a 70% fall in net migration. The Government should stop kidding itself it will ever get credit for being anti-migration. They could cut numbers to zero and there would still be front pages blasting them for making the UK a socialist wasteland no one wants to come to

The UK government’s budget is simply managing decline. The budget does little to improve living standards or facilitate sustained economic growth. Can't grow economy by hiking taxes on low/middle income families. Whatever happened to taxing the rich?

Many newspapers and politicians have been calling yesterday's fiscal statement a 'Budget for Benefits Street'. Here's three reasons why that is not accurate 🧵

70% of the additional spending from removing the two-child limit will go to families who are in work. This is targeting support for low-income working households who are being priced out of a decent standard of living despite doing everything asked of them.

If you receive legal threats from Nigel Farage for your reporting of Reform, please get in touch. We have employed a defamation lawyer specifically for this purpose and would love to help (and we do so on non-commercial terms). www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Peter Etedgui, a Jewish former classmate of Nigel Farage, says he is angered by Reform leader claiming his recollection of racist bullying is untrue. Two former classmates bsck Etedgui's challenge to Farage's (partial) denial among 20 who recalled Farage's conduct then www.bbc.com/news/article...

BBC Chair Samir Shah and Robbie Gibb asked to explain why they drew up a plan, as revealed by Byline Times, to win back the "trust" of Reform voters, but haven't made similar plans for voters of any other party. Gibb says Reform voters least likely to trust the BBC bylinetimes.com/2025/06/09/b...

Nigel Farage has addressed the recollections of twenty contemporaries about his use of racism + antisemitism at school, saying it was "banter in a playground" many decades ago, but did not in his view amount to "direct unpleasant genuine abuse" www.itv.com/news/2025-11...

Brexit and support for Farage's narrative have destroyed the Tory Party, reducing it to just 14 seats at the next election! The same will happen to Labour if they continue doing the same. #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

BBC News cover claims of Nigel Farage's racism "One Jewish pupil said he was targeted by Mr Farage, who would tell him: Hitler was right and gassed them" "Another public who was non-white was told to go back to where he came from"

Keir Starmer has called for an investigation into Reform's ties with Russia. @mrjamesob.bsky.social is 'surprised' about who he’s called upon to lead it.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

“Brexit was a waste of money that, now more than ever, we simply cannot afford.” The political refusal to admit how badly they screwed us over with Brexit keeps us trapped in inevitable, snowballing failure. We can’t let them dodge this reality forever. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.

This is how Rachel Reeves could deliver a progressive budget. Billions available without increasing the rate of income tax, National Insurance or corporation tax. Just end some of the perks for a select few, anomalies and abuses. Redistribute to alleviate poverty, better infrastructure.

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...
