If we are going to talk about deportations, then let's deport Farage to Russia, the country he has loyally served for some twenty years. Please repost if you agree.

😂

I’m shocked!

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

Been a while since I had this much fun in the studio. Apart from during Mystery Hour, of course. Not sure they made this cut but there at least two occasions when I nearly lost it completely.

Just a thought. Has America just had its “Reichstag burning down” moment?

Sadiq Khan has said a record number of Americans have applied for British citizenship following the election of Trump. “It’s also our liberal values that make us stand out – celebrating our diversity in London as a strength, not as a threat to society.” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Call me a conspiracy theorist from across the pond, but given the huge polarisation in USA politics and the fact that the place is awash with guns, wouldn’t it be in the interests of hostile foreign powers (eg Russia) to murder a high profile and controversial political figure?

At the risk of sounding like a government spokesperson, I wonder if we're too gloomy. NHS waiting times are falling, as are net migration numbers. Growth hasn't been fast, but it's improved. Real wages are growing. Inflation is a bit sticky, but much reduced.

Reform UK Councillor Jim O’Neill has deleted this post, but we think it’s important to share as it’s pretty spot on. Tories 2.0 (but only their rejects).

Angela Rayner accidentally pays less tax than she should have, resigns, and the media gives her hell. Nigel Farage deliberately pays less tax than he should have, and the media gives him a free pass. That, right there, is the problem.

“We will police the streets and not the tweets and change all that damaging legislation,” says Nigel Farage on stage at Reform – just after welcoming the minister responsible for passing the Online Safety Act onto the stage with him, and into his party.

The papers and BBC are all over this, right?

@mrjamesob.bsky.social one for your show I think

Now why won’t Starmer say that?

Let’s settle this, is Nigel Farage a racist? Like if he is. RT if he is a traitor.

The 14 warning signs of fascism. The U.K. is sliding down these certainly number one is very evident, number two is being toyed with, number three has been evident for years, number 6 is there (but not controlled by the government - yet), seven and 12 are there but lower down. The USA has all?

Well this is a good opportunity to wheel out Jonathan Gullis's Desecration of War Memorials bill. www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwal...

I turn on my TV and a TV presenter is asking a Govt minister why they are talking about rolling out free childcare when the big issue is asylum hotels. This is objectively insane.

Pleased with that Wordle 1,531 3/6 ⬜🟨⬜⬜⬜ 🟩🟨⬜🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Almost four years out from an election & paying *the actual fucking Taliban* to torture & murder people who risked their lives to escape them is getting the full ‘both sides’ treatment in Brexit Britain.

Shout out to all the other political prisoners who openly called for the burning of human beings, entered a guilty plea, got released after doing 40% of their sentence, and were immediately free to go on supportive media channels to criticise the government that locked them up.

Good on the Mirror for having the bravery to strike out against this bullshit

US political coverage vs political coverage in the rest of the world.

Here's a fact for you all. Prior to 2017 there was not a single documented case of any individual travelling by small boats across the English Channel to caim asylum in the UK. Not ONE. This current 'boats' crisis has been largely caused by Brexit. But for some reason NOBODY is saying that.

What Zelenskyy wanted to post...

Brexit was an attempted counter-revolution against many of the changes this country has gone through since 1945. It has turned out to be a failure with elements of farce. This has driven many people on the Right completely mad.

Private Eye bang on as usual. I love the fact they’ve used a picture from Shrewsbury (where I live) to illustrate the point. If anyone is interested the statue is Robert Clive (of India).

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts. The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative. Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

Farage should never be interviewed without being forced to answer for failures of Brexit. That the man whose lies fuelled Brexit vote which has cost UK Billions & who said Liz Truss budget was “best Tory budget since 1986” could be trusted on *anything* is mind-boggling #bbclaura
