Nigel Farage, who has so far registered a total of £280,500 for four hours a month as a "brand ambassador" for a company selling gold bars, thinks a £10 an hour minimum wage for young people is too high bylinetimes.com/2025/11/03/nigel-farage-minimum-wage-cut-for-young-people-reform-uk/

A woman is killed by a man every 3 days in the UK... 78% are murdered by a partner/ex Yet not once have I heard Reform talk about this Not once have I heard them back measures to protect women’s safety In fact, they voted against them...

This week Nigel Farage said 'Never trust a Tory' Just for the record: Nigel Farage was a Tory Lee Anderson was a Tory Nadine Dorris was a Tory Danny Kruger was a Tory Zia Yussef was a Tory Andrea Jenkins was a Tory Sarah Atherton was a Tory Jake Berry was a Tory Ann Widdecombe was a Tory

Where would Brentford be without air quality Brentford. Well, I suppose still between Ealing and the Thames but a lot less pleasant 😊

This will really help those who rent their homes, especially if they have dodgy landlords! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Brentford market getting set up. Lots of lovely stalls lots of lovely people. Starts at 11 don't miss it - you'll regret it 😱

☝️ agree….

Nigel Farage so dedicated to his constituency he had to rush away to Clacton. Sorry I mean GB News HQ. Or Washington. Well done Caerphilly news.sky.com/story/caerph...

The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast' 10/10 response, no notes

Reform councils are at least consistent. They are all awful. By the way, I don't think Nigel Farage has ever met Linden KemKaren. If people say they have met it is false news. www.kentonline.co.uk/kent/news/re...

The tally of wins in Local Government by-elections this week was Liberal Democrats 7, Conservative, Reform and an Independent 1 each. GB News headlined this outcome as: "Reform secures historic first in Super Thursday by-election" Thank god we have reliable non-MSM reporting 🤣🤣

Guy's first coffee morning experiment for Brentford residents tomorrow Saturday 18th, 11am to 1 pm in the Spire Cafe. Anyone from Brentford will be welcome to chat about the town, the council, and the price of fish. And quantum mechanics if that's your bag. Don't leave uour councillor lonely 😯

I see the Blessed Nigel clocked up >£120,000 in May and June from making speeches. I'm not sure they were all in Clacton. Or the UK for that matter. Not declared in his register of interests until 3 October where he should have done so by 28th July at the latest. Nice work if you can hide it.

Here's the crime wave that shows theft of posh watches, handbags and jewellery are actually sharply down. Phone thefts are up, though but only 7 thefts in Hounslow borough last year www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

In Hounslow the discount you get if you use the Right to Buy bribe is more than twice what you have paid in rent over 10 years. The demand for council homes is partly driven by people who have alternatives but are motivayed to collect the bribe.

I just sent a few quid to support this team gofund.me/183a5e9a5

Government Gateway is absolutely pants. I have about half a dozen numbers and was told to use one of them. Then had to go through security involving photos of my passport and of my face. Tried to sign in to HMRC. They said that is not valid use a different one. That didn't work so I was shut out 😡

Reform UK’s Councillor Rowland O’Connor, St. Columb Major, has resigned from the party. A conspiracy theorist who claimed 17m people have died from the COVID vaccine, among many other claims.

"If you have always voted Tory, then flirted with UKIP, was taken in by the Brexit Party, voted Brexit, then listened to Boris Johnson and voted Tory (Again) to"Get Brexit Done" and now you support/voted Reform, the state the country is in is because of you!"

Michael Heseltine, always one of the decent Tories, has a entirely justifed pop at both Farage and the Tory leadership. It would be refreshing to see some current senior Tories (and Labour people) following his example. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Farage's hero (almost as revered as Putin) is making Liz Truss look like Solomon. I am still convinced that British voters are not as misguided as the polls suggest www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Lovely guy, Putin and his pal Farage agree. I'm surprised if Farage is after a pay rise. Perhaps he is. Or obviously not paid by the Russians, that would be treason

Who wants to see a video of Nigel Farage calling Nathan Gill a “decent, honourable man”?

It always amazes me how all the people waiting will actually fit on the smallish plane to Bari. But I guess they will....

I always look to follow the money, particularly if Trump is involved. Does a competitor give him money?

To transform the country and take on the populist right, Labour must heed the voices of its radical realists - and build a principled, practical, popular left alternative. Even expelled Labour renegades like me can join! www.mainstreamlabour.org/get-involved

Another reason why I like Sadiq Khan: "I think I’ve got squatter's rights for the amount of time I’ve spent in Donald Trump’s head. I’m just hoping he doesn’t send me an invoice for all the time I’ve spent there.”

The only independent at the event to thank our great volunteer heroes(Ines). From Brentford West our eminent historian Janet McNamara and the team from Brentford Voice represented by Dr Bob. And the team from St Paul's eco church. Brentford West is small but perfectly formed, like it's councillor

Aside from the overall potential impact on London if the IFS proposal for fair funding for councils ifs.org.uk/publications... is implemented, this analysis clearly shows that Hounslow is drastically underfunded compared to richer areas (EG neighbours like Richmond and Hammersmith!)

Farage says he's a patriot. A true patriot wouldn't - say they most admire Putin - appear 17 times on state Russian tv - blame NATO for Putin attacking Ukraine - say hand Afghan nationals to Taliban - Say UK has become N Korea - Slag off UK to US senate - Say Truss budget the best since Thatcher

"Once you stop learning, you start dying”-Albert Einstein. "Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever." — Mahatma Gandhi "Learning does not tire the mind" - Leonardo da Vinci An excellent mantra. I try to live my life that way, but sometimes fail.

All happening in Brentford right now at the marketplace. Don't miss it!

I've heard that one of the Reform councillors elected to Kent CC in May has defected to UKIP. A rare example of a rat joining the sinking ship perhaps.

Reform UK Councillor, Sam Journet has been arrested for stalking, harassment and public disorder in the council offices of Basildon DC Bet he jas lots of flags. though

Batters (what I used to call batsmen) can cope with a ball approaching them at 90mph, varying in bounce and swinging and seaming in unpredictable directions. Do they really need an umpire's assistance to determine where to place their bat within an inch or two. Blasphemy I suppose

But the real worry is that a lot of people have not yet seen through these phoneys. If you saw them in the street you'd cross t the other side.

Farage pretends to be patriotic. He is in Washington because there is more TV time for him than doing the job he was elected to do. He goes to Washington to slag off the UK with anti-British propaganda. Then he makes an idiot of himself 🤣🤣

Moskowitz: Do you think the Epstein list should come out? Farage: I have no opinion on it. Raskin: It’s been reported that he’s called for it to be released Moskowitz: I have it here. Do you agree with yourself?

Amid all the stuff about ‘dangerous London’ and ‘broken Britain’, the homicide rate in London is at a 10-year low. Down by 26% over the last year, from 78 to 58. 0.58 per 100K pop down from 0.78 last year. Cf St Louis (69.4 per 100K) Americans (and Farage) are worried about our lawless country

I've just made a will (no, you are not a beneficiary) Apparently the government will store it for you for £23 a one-off cost. Cool idea and it's on the web - wow, modern. You send it through the post with a cheque or a Postal Order. Wow, modern paying system. www.gov.uk/government/p...

Farage Anywhere But Clacton World Tour 2024 Aug: Arizona Sept: Chicago Sept: Kuala Lumpur Nov: Pennsylvania Dec: NYC Dec: Washington 2025 Jan: Washington Feb: Washington May: Florida May: France Sept: Washington Beats turning up at Parliament or in his constinuuency but £££££

Patriots, Reformorons, and most importantly, idiots.

I'm worried the New Forest ponies have been drinking too much Thames Water

Ambulant is Japanese today

Sky have apologised to Nottingham Forest for "any offence caused". Of course it caused offence otherwise there would be no complaint! I hate that expression usually used when a cancelled flight or roadworks had messed up a trip. That expression proves insincerity in the 'apology"

Reform choose the most impressive people to help the electors. But you have to question that they are politicians to help themselves. bylinetimes.com/2025/08/12/b...
