Imagine spending 12 hours in a car in 30+ degree heat. Brexit is the curse that keeps getting worse.

It's incredible how Farage gets given every advantage, every media interview, every bit of kid-gloves regulation and is still SO WHINY ALL THE TIME

If Reform ever get anywhere near power, it will be solely down to the failure of the UK political system to root out and ban dodgy donations

Ah yes, a very normal financial arrangement that any ordinary person can understand

NEW @gabrielpogrund.bsky.social reveals tonight that the Met Police have been investigating donations to Reform UK from fraudster George Cottrell's mother. The investigation has been ongoing since last year and two people have been interviewed by police.

Britain is European. We don't want you having guns, Rupert. Or any of your fashy followers either.

This diagram is very relevant to Farage

The mystery of Farage's supposed 'debanking' is finally solved: "The £5m gift to Nigel Farage by a cryptocurrency billionaire was reported to the National Crime Agency by bankers who were concerned it may have been laundered money, the Guardian can reveal."

Calling a by-election over the sovereign right of every MP to take secret gifts from a convicted criminal. What a time to be alive.

Farage has crucially confused "making money" with "being handed money by shady billionaires"

If only there had been some clues

It's always sad to see job cuts in journalism. Fortunately, GB News is yet to produce any journalism. www.thetimes.com/article/c1dd...

The irony is that the UK is anyway trying to join the various "extra" EU initiatives outlined in this article. So the main effect on the rejoin debate should be... that it's easier to be part of them if we rejoin! (It becomes the default instead of needing a price of entry each time.)

Farage having a total “establishment stitch-up” wettie about being scrutinised for his corrupt links and handouts from a convicted fraudster while Jenrick insists Farage “will be Britain’s next prime minister.” No. You don’t get to tantrum your way to power. app.independent.co.uk/2026/07/05/3...

You see this most often in UK politicians' assertions that the EU has somehow "had enough" of negotiating with the UK. The EU is the world's biggest negotiation machine. It negotiates for breakfast, lunch and dinner. *Membership* brings more stability – but still negotiation.

"Labour MPs are proposing a cap on UK-based donations to political parties" A clue: as well as declared donations, you also need to go after the shadowy Russian cash, the "personal gifts", the politicians paid fortunes to be "TV presenters", "columnists" and "after-dinner speakers"...

Nigel Farage? Who? Oh, you mean £5 Million Farage

Remember when he made a huge fuss about being "debanked"? Was that really the overreach it was made out to be, or did the bank flag something?

As with Trump, we keep seeing the crypto connection – dark money swirling around these far right figures

🧵1/ I've spent more than a decade working on anti-bribery and corruption. I know a red flag when I see one. That's why I’ve reported Nigel Farage to Parliament’s Standards Commissioner. (H/T @rowenamason.bsky.social and @tomburgis.bsky.social).

People say reversing Brexit is hard. Some even say it's impossible. But reversing Brexit is a lot easier than continuing with it. Both are active choices. It isn't "do a hard thing" vs "do nothing" – it's climbing out of a hole vs digging it deeper.

A Times investigation reveals Farage and his partner own *at least* five homes across Surrey, Kent and Essex, all but one bought with cash since 2000. In 2017 he said he was “skint”.

Reform politicians increasingly just post up photos of black people and get angry. Not for some crime or scandal. Just for them existing. For all their pretense at being a normal political party, we know what Reform are and why they behave this way. The same old hate in new clothing.

Bring on the byelection! inews.co.uk/news/politic...

Not content with that £5m donation, Farage trousers £270,000 to sell gold to the gullible www.lbc.co.uk/article/fara...

Coming soon to a Farage near you

If it was possible to make Brexit a success, surely someone would have figured it out by now? Maybe one of the six prime ministers who have tried? But here are some nonentities discussing the impossible.

Worth remembering. Burnham named Brexit as one of the four horsemen that broke Britain. Will he do anything about it?

I don’t understand how Farage can think “everyone cares” about EU bureacrats (he made a mint of that), and “everyone cares” about migrants earning a meagre living to survive, and yet “no one cares” about a £5m bung and £1m a year from GBNews to him. Does he think we’re that stupid?

Just 11 of 632 constituencies would vote to stay out of the EU in second referendum www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

The economic impact of Brexit has been crystal clear since the EU referendum was just a gleam in David Cameron's eye www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This chart was supposed to show that many leave voters have died, but you can see that plenty of remain voters have too. (It looks about 60/40?) The more important point: look at that "too young to vote" bar. Look at how it all goes to rejoin except a tiny slither to "stay out". That's the story.

Ceíra Casey Sergeant, founder of National Rejoin March Youth, speaking at the March for Rejoin in parliament square, "10 years after the referendum, young people's voices need to be represented" "I believe in the European Union because it signifies what humanity should be striving towards"

Sometimes people on here despair that the British people are somehow in thrall to Farage. They're not. His popularity is sinking, and it can go much lower. Keep pushing.

“Ten Years On From the Brexit Referendum, It’s Time for a Breturn to the EU” On the 10th anniversary of the referendum, I make the case for Britain rejoining the EU, and look back on a decade of lies and political and economic chaos. Me, for Zeteo UK:

Farage was in the European Parliament for 20 years and had a similarly very low participation rate. Taxpayers and donors fund his lifestyle and he doesn't even put in the basic work – just swans around spreading hate.

Nigel Farage is running the bizarre line again on Today that he "wasn't in politics" when he stuffed £5 million down his trousers from a crypto-billionaire. He literally owned a political party.

The Brexit vote brought down a prime minister. On the tenth anniversary, Brexit has just brought down another one. Each government's unpopularity has been driven by the economic disaster that is Brexit – sometimes also known as the "UK cost of living crisis". There's no end until we rejoin.

Under-28s go for Rejoin by 80%+: "When filtering the results to focus solely on those likely to cast a ballot in a hypothetical second referendum, the margin becomes a landslide, with the Rejoin camp capturing 81% of the vote against just 19% for remaining outside."

The 'ten years' bit is a clue.

Yes. It's a hard lesson in what happens if you pander to Reform voters: they still hate you, and no one else likes it.

Neil Kinnock has a message for our next Prime Minister, "We after 10 years after loss and cost and decline, must make the argument, incessantly and continually, to rejoin the European Union" "It. Is. Our. Imperative."

Some journalists are annoyed about Steve Bray and his amp supposedly drowning out "national moments". But Brexit is what has ultimately caused the downfall of Starmer – his refusal to tackle it kept the economy stagnant and the cost of living spiralling. It's good for them to be reminded of that.

A lot of people coming out with their "why Starmer failed" takes today. But if you look at the big picture, there's only really one answer: Brexit. Every prime minister since the EU referendum has had a short term and then fallen. It wasn't at all like that before! The reason is Brexit.

Fantastic Day yesterday Thank you #Rejoinmarch Peter Corr and Team and everyone who came, plus all the wonderful speakers #Rejoin

At yesterday’s National Rejoin March, Edith Berryman was one of many excellent speakers. To paraphrase, she said “People’s 2016 *beliefs* about Brexit cannot continue to take precedence over the overwhelming 2026 *evidence* of the effects of Brexit”. She is 20. She has never had a say. #RejoinEU

Many Scots joined the throngs at the #RejoinMarch in London yesterday @leedseurope.bsky.social @bremaininspain.com @bremaininspain.com @ne4eu.bsky.social @walesforeurope.bsky.social @terryreintke.bsky.social @lancasterforeu.bsky.social

You think the EU "won't have us back"? Europeans support the UK rejoining.
