I trust that Warren A Stephens, US Ambassador to the Court of St James will be on the Foreign Office carpet tomorrow as demand Trump withdraws his slur on the London, the mayor and the UK in general. How dare he.

Absolutely huge!!!! We're only just getting started. Join.greenparty.org.uk

I generally rate Chris Mason but it would make things easier for all if Robbie Gibb - Brexiter & Theresa May’s director of comms at Number 10 - were not still a non-executive director of the BBC. Everything he touches turns to shit. Including, at the moment, a lot of the Beeb’s political journalism.

The far from left wing Prof Tim Wilson succinctly in his own inimitable way exposing the purpose and ridiculousness behind Farage's immigration policy. Check it out on youtu.be/5nwNp7DV1M0?...

Does Nigel Farage have OCD? Just asking. He certainly seems obsessed by foreigners and immigrants. He also appears compelled to talk about them at every opportunity. On, and on, and ever droning on. He should seek help, maybe some kind of aversion therapy.

Yesterdays man, Mel Stride, proving yet again how out of step the Tories are with history when he says the recognition of a Palestine State is just gesture politics.

Just signed the demand that Farage produces his tax returns. If he gets them out now, he could top the Xmas top fiction best sellers list. chng.it/rhYJn8Szqz

This is a disgrace they need to fire the person at the BBC who is charge of the News, they are clearly biased.

I resigned from the Labour party where I have been an activist since 1995 because of Starmer's Island of Strangers speech. Tonight I joined the Green Party because I am a socialist.

Nigel Farage is now threatening to sue people who talk about his Stamp Duty avoidance via his girlfriend suddenly finding £885,000 down the sofa to buy a house that definately isn't for him. So don't talk about it, you wouldn't want to make Nigel Farage mad, would you?

Farage has resorted to threatening to sue people who talk about his Stamp Duty avoidance via his girlfriend suddenly finding £885,000 out of thin air to buy a house. Let’s keep talking about it, he can’t get away with his corruption & threats will not work! #NigelFarage

Keep wondering when Lord Glasman will defect to Reform, but actually wonder if he'd go all the way to the furthest right. He is certainly an ongoing embarrassment to any idea of a progressive Labour Party.

Just signed the petition for Kruger to face a by-election, a principle that should already be enshrined in law. Here is the link: chng.it/9v7sMbjnkC

Stephen Colbert, a truly lovely man leading the fight against Trump and MAGA. If anyone should be dining with the King today, it is him. Everything Trump can never be.

Proud to British Even Prouder to be a Bristolian But on two main streets in Bedminster and Ashton Gate - Luckwell Road and Duckmoor Road and nearby West Street, the flags sparked some controversy, with some local residents living on those streets saying they didn’t want them there.

Now the far right faux patriots have despoiled our national flag is it perhaps time for a new design; one not based on religions, but one that incorporates Wales and acknowledges that Ireland is a sovereign nation in its own right.

I was once a boy scout. I marched in St Georges Day celebrations. I carried the flag. What I got from those days was respect for the flag. It was never to be allowed to touch the ground. To wear it as underwear, mini dresses or draping it around your neck like a cloak is the ultimate disrespect

Danny Kruger finally where he belongs: in Fascist party. I have often thought how well he would fill out an SS uniform.

Reform, with 0.6% of all MPs, featured in 25% of BBC's recent 10pm news bulletins flip.it/okxIhl

I don't think Peter Mandelson is PM's biggest problem. The biggest problem is not standing up to the literal violent racism on our streets, supercharged by the richest man in the world, and threatening the very fabric of our society. If he and so many commentators can't see this, we're truly lost.

Everyone wanting to leave the ECHR should watch this: youtu.be/ptfmAY6M6aA?...

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said that Canada's old relationship with the United States, "based on deepening integration of our economies and tight security and military cooperation, is over". We need to be cosying up to Canada

Lets throw another conspiracy theory into the mix. Why the anti vax, anti healthcare brigade are banging their drum. Those programs mostly protect the young and the old, the 2 demographics most dependent on benefits. Reduce their number and you can cut benefits. Simples.

BBC coverage of Reform is becoming increasingly problematic. And goes beyond the usual white noise. Continuous soft balling is not balance, it is a fundamental abdication of duty. Farage's tax issues, cranks given platforms at their conference, climate change denial. All need coverage. Most haven't.

🎺🎺We are proud to announce that the new @greenparty.org.uk leader, @zackpolanski.bsky.social will be joining our protest against Donald Trump on September 17😎😎

As Farage and Co stir up hatred and anger with lies and falsehoods, I am reminded of the words of Steve Biko: The most powerful weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the minds of the oppressed.

Every time I hear talk of the next general election I remember there's three sets of local elections, a slate of devolved elections, men's and women's football World Cups, a summer and winter Olympics, a US Presidential election and thirteen Sinner v Alcaraz grand slam finals before then

Nigel Farage, millionaire 'man of the people', so far this weekend... "I 'misspoke' about buying a house in Clacton". "I lied about stopping small boats in two weeks". "I use private companies to evade taxation". "No, of course you can't see my tax returns". Links below ⬇️

“Nigel Farage says….” has been the headline of the decade. Look at what he does, ffs. Look at his tax affairs. Look at his grifting. Look at his lies. Look at his prejudice. Look at his allies. Look at his manifesto. Look at his Brexit. He is the embodiment of personal greed and national failure.

Last November Farage told Sky News: “I’ve just exchanged contracts on the house that I’ll be living there in – is that good enough?… *I’ve bought a house in Clacton* What more do you want me to do?” Oh, I dunno Nigel. Tell the truth? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Nigel Farage is the biggest charlatan in British political history. And here's what his constitutents in Clacton really think:

On the same day in the Telegraph:

"We are the patriotic party" says Nigel Farage, who just spent the past few days slagging off his own country to a foreign superpower, while encouraging them to impose sanctions on our economy if we don't do what they say

Who will the right-wing media lynch mob target next? Not since David Mellor can I recall the wolf pack baying so loudly for blood or chase down their prey so determinedly.

Your periodical reminder that the Daily Mail funnels its profits up to Bemuda so *it* can avoid tax while its owner, Lord Rothermere, is widely reported to be a non-dom.

😂😂😂 the “patriotic” moron who organized the flag campaign against illegal migrants was previously jailed for organizing a plot to smuggle illegal immigrants in. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

This is terrifying

This is a huge story. Don't let him get away with it. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Listening to James O'Brien on LBC and I am sure I heard the announcer say "An Essex advisor is about to give their verdict on Angela Rayner's stamp duty fiasco. If that is right, she is toast.

The Tories cannot hope to reclaim their place as the country's second largest party until they do a reality check and admit that their 14 years of incompetence is the reason the country is in such dire straits. Then an apology followed by a show of contrition might allow us to forgive them

Reform welcoming Nadine Dorries to their ranks is comparable to a country opening its arms to greet the plague. I am so happy for them.

Jamie Raskin is a super hero. His summation of Farage should be recorded and played at maximum volume on every audio device in Britain.

Congratulations @zackpolanski.bsky.social 👏

Daily Mail headline today apparently asking: "WHEN DID BRITAIN BECOME NORTH KOREA?" Answer: Britain has not become North Korea because the Daily Mail is still available, free to print its bilge without fear of retribution.

2 new reality (surely an oxymoron) TV shows coming up that will plumb the depths of tawdry banality. "Stranded on Honeymoon Island" (BBC) and "The Inheritance" (C4). Are TV companies turning us into voyeuristic peeping Toms? Are peoples' lives so devoid of interest that they need this stuff?

The fact that Reform were trying to run a person who had been dead for six months as their Croydon Mayoral candidate is proof if it were needed that they are not a serious party. It demonstrates abject incompetence and no vetting as well as utter contempt for the electorate.

The bit fartage will never tell you
