Nigel Farage’s legacy.

Reforms Flagship Kent County Council has been so inefficient with money (despite much publicised DOGE visit) they have had to ask the opposition to help them find savings🤦🏼‍♂️ Plus they will put Council Tax up and cut services.. So Reforms claim they saved £331 million is complete & utter bollox❗️🙄😡

⚡️ Europe vows to stand by Ukraine. Costa says Kyiv will keep getting diplomatic, military and economic support. 🔗 united24media.com/latest-news/...

Good for Greater Manchester ICB!😊 I personally want Palantir removed from all public service data contracts. Let’s keep things in our country & controlled by our own government departments!🤔🤞

I implore someone, anyone, in the media… Do your job And the next time you have Farage on, please ask him directly: …what were the motivations behind this?

This petition for a public inquiry into Russian interference is now at 25.1k and growing fast. We have to break through the establishment's wall of silence about Russian interference in British politics. Please share the petition as widely as possible. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

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...

The richest 1 percent own more wealth than 95 percent of humanity. And the solution is not taxing them.

Sir Robbie Gibb says he has ‘no intention of resigning’ Then the the public who pay the BBC honcho responsible for ‘impartiality’, having been an early founder of GB News, owner of the Jewish Chronicle when its standards evaporated, should make sure he’s sacked. What a rip off

Father David’s asks a blunt question: what does Putin have on Trump? He warns that something must be done soon, before Trump completely sells America out. Listen to his words! Well worth the watch! 👀👀 #PutinsPuppet #USDemocracy #Pinks youtube.com/shorts/8sZD5...

Gibb; “ I had no editorial role whatsoever at the Jewish Chronicle”. Lee Harpin, reporter at the paper; “RG made a habit of calling into the office on print days to check up on what stories were topping the news list, and offering a view’”

In Sumy, the enemy deliberately targeted rescuers. Today, Russia launched yet another strike on Sumy. Emergency crews rushed to the site and immediately began extinguishing the fire. And at that very moment, while the firefighters units were working, the enemy carried out a second drone attack.

Trump reposted on Truth Social multiple accounts from X this weekend who have been identified as foreigners posing as American MAGA supporters. meidasnews.com/news/trump-a...

You might say #Reform have adopted the Trump school of accounting here, except Vote Leave were ahead of that particular game in 2016 with the offer of “£350m a week” for the NHS written on the side of a bus…

This is one of the big accounts boosting Tommy Robinson, Farage and Reform and ‘English Patriots’. It’s Russian.

How many times have we heard a bully say: “It was just a joke!”…

umm

"While elite journos and businessmen kiss the ring of Trump, people in jammies and slippers confront ICE in the street. The courage of ordinary people has been stunning compared to the elite." On the pod @amandamarcotte.bsky.social is good on Trump's downward spiral: newrepublic.com/article/2035...

Great story. Raising native tree seedlings for #reforestation in #Thailand

"One of the terrible ironies is that Reform’s leader, Nigel Farage, is now capitalising on the unpopularity of a government whose laudable aims have been frustrated by the economic damage caused by a Brexit behind which he was the prime mover." ~AA observer.co.uk/news/busines...

As Epstein questions linger, Trump falls back into familiar habit: lashing out at female reporters

How is this not the top story on every news bulletin? This has been happening for years and instead of doing anything to protect children successive governments have made the situation worse. This isn't just on councils. It is part of failings on a State level. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

People wonder why the U.K. seems to be following America. Because of American Christian groups donating to far-right groups. Been happening for years now. Revealed: US anti-LGBT ‘hate group’ dramatically increases UK spending www.opendemocracy.net/en/5050/reve...

Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances. A new decade-long Brexit study explains it: a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else. Brexit made Britain poorer. Much poorer.

Ahem

Truly incredible event taking place on X as MAGA discovers many high profile pro-Trump accounts are actually foreigners performing as American conservatives

Republican Senator Mike Rounds said Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in a call to senators, confirmed the so-called 28-point “peace plan” was actually a Russian wishlist and is “not the administration’s position”. Nor is there any threat to cut off weapons or intelligence to Ukraine.

This article is from 2019. I wonder whether Farage and Bannon are still in touch? I find Bannon a revoltingly fascinating person. He doesn't appear to be influential within the MAGA movement any more, but is still honking. Just the chap to be a Farage confederate.

Hope HMRC are investigating whether Gill evaded tax on the bribes he received. (Bribes are absolutely taxable income, but people tend not to declare them to HMRC...)

Lumping them together as “AI” gives readers the impression that a single class of tool is discerning novel protein structures, teasing subtle patterns out of mountains of LHC data, writing a student’s History 101 paper, and arguing a ketamine-addled billionaire could post up Shaq in his prime. No.

Clues he was like this, there were sadly none.

Powerful piece by @drrachelclarke.com on the COVID inquiry. Those who say it’s easy to be wise in hindsight are being utterly disingenuous. Many of us spoke out at the time, and it’s in the public record. @independentsage.bsky.social observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

The UK is a strongly pro-choice country with 86% of Britons wanting abortion to be legal in all or most cases. But the US anti-choice movement has been investing heavily into campaigns in Britain, and Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party seems to be support the interference.

So the line is that he wasn't getting paid for any of this

It’s so important to understand- as Arthur explains here - that the so called peace plan is not only a disaster for Ukraine but a threat to all of Europe

We now have leaders of allied nations unable to trust a word the US tells them. We are witnessing one of the greatest diplomatic and foreign relations blunders of our lifetimes.

It's January 31st, 2020, and Nathan Gill is celebrating our imminent departure from the EU.... and that terrible idea of a European Army. Hmm, now I wonder who else would have been delighted about that.

Extraordinary, when you think about it, that anyone could look at former *head of communications for Theresa May* Robbie Gibb & think ‘now that’s exactly the skillset we need a slice of’. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n...

If you want to understand Ukraine and Ukrainians, remember this: During the liberation of Kherson, one man said, “Now, we have no electricity in the city, no water, no central supply heating, no mobile connection, no internet connection, but we have no RUSSIANS” 1/2

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.
