Trump's bootlicker in chief strikes again. Farage is no patriot, he's just a stooge for the White House.

My brother fought in the infantry and lost soldiers in Afghanistan. The press used to report deaths before families had been told and I would check my phone over and over, scared it would ring. I went to the inquest of one of his killed men. I saw his red-eyed parents, girlfriend and baby daughter.

The Chagos Islands deal: a mini explainer The Chagos deal isn’t a giveaway but a long-overdue reckoning with colonial crimes, legal reality, and the price of military legitimacy westenglandbylines.co.uk/politics/the...

There you have it, the Board of Peace is nothing more than a corrupt real estate deal dressed up as diplomacy with the sole purpose of enriching Trump and his favoured cronies.

New in PN: American embarrassment. Global pariah. "Donald Trump sounded like a fascist dictator suffering from a brain bleed during his speech yesterday at Davos. It was a national embarrassment even by the lowly standards of modern American politics."

🚨WOW! Now closing on 88,000 signatures! The Petition calling for by-elections to be called automatically when MPs defect to another party is getting so close to the 100,000 needed. Let’s keep going! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

Nigel Farage failed to declare 17 payments on time, UK inquiry finds reut.rs/3LLdSz8

Just wondering if Nigel Farage would take “I don’t do computers” as an excuse from another politician? https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/jan/21/nigel-farage-apologises-breaches-mp-code-conduct

… including payments for promoting gold, presenting on GB News and from his friend George Cottrell, within 28 days. Reform UK leader apologised for what he described as administrative errors by his team.

This makes no sense… An MP can wake up one morning, ditch the party you elected them for, & sign up to a completely different manifesto… No thanks If they defect to a different party, we should get a vote Sign the petition & help make that law. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

President Trump imposes tariffs on UK & others because they oppose the US taking over Greenland 👇

The Nobel Foundation makes yet another statement:

🔴 Who Funds the Free Speech Union? Toby Young’s outfit has gone to court to stop publication of a list of its donors So we decided to take a dive into its funders Watch video with me and @writesbright.bsky.social 😀 youtu.be/oP0OGYhYyaA?...

SCOOP: Trump quietly pardoned several people this week, including: ▶️A Venezuelan-Italian banker implicated in a bribery scheme whose daughter donated $3.5M to Trump's PAC. ▶️A California woman who was freed from prison by a Trump commutation in 2021 & was then convicted in an unrelated case in 2024.

This has been the plan all along. - Foment violence and chaos in the streets of MN - Implement the Insurrection Act - Declare Martial Law - Suspend elections

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

Amazingly, Zahawi only got round to deleting the below after the press conference announcing his defection to Reform.

“Donald Trump is a man who represents all the things we teach our children not to be. He’s a liar. He’s a thief. He’s a molester. He has no remorse, no shame, no empathy. He has no loyalty to the law, to the Constitution. This man is the lowest character of all.”

BREAKING: Massive Crowds of Anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis, Minnesota as we speak. The tide is turning. America is Fed Up. Americans should be fighting back against what is happening in this country. Having masked, secret police shooting people, breaking into homes and cars, is NOT normal.

You lying piece of shit. I chaired the Minnesota DFL for all three of your runs here. I watched you lose. Three times. Minnesota never bought your con. And now, as Chair of the DNC, I’m looking forward to ending Trumpism for good in 2028 — not with lies, but with votes. Again.

Renee Good tells ICE, "That's fine dude, I'm not mad at you" - then ICE agent shoots her and says "f*cking b*tch" America, how can you be ok with this?

Elon Musk's Grok faces global scrutiny for sexualised AI photos reut.rs/45KtDgi

If a new app was produced which had, as its core features, the generation of sexual deep fake images of children and calls for a violent global far-right revolution, then not only would it be swiftly banned, but you wouldn't have a single mainstream politician willing to associate themselves with it

I’ve heard from multiple friends today about daycares being raided and parents being ripped out of cars (in one case with a child left behind in the backseat). Grim times here.

Republicans doubling down, threatening to kill more Americans

Just seen Grok putting the body of the victim of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis into a bikini. Digital corpse desecration now available to the public.

“'The guy, I’m telling him like, "Please step off the school grounds," and this dude comes up and bumps into me and then tells me that I pushed him, and he knocked me down,' an official at Roosevelt High School said. 'They don’t care. They’re just animals. I’ve never seen people behave like this.'"

Attention World: Boycott the World Cup, USA, 2026

This was an execution by ICE in Minneapolis this afternoon. An agent lunges at the female driver’s door and another shoots her at point blank range when she tries to drive away. Call this what it is. Murder. (🎥 Max Nesterak)

This is a fantasy stitched together from ego, exaggeration, and outright falsehoods.

Garcia says "I just want to be very clear that the vast majority of those Somali Minnesota are citizens and Somali-Americans have as much right to access those services as members of Congress," then uses the rest of his questioning time to highlight how Trump is pardoning convicting fraudsters

This is how Trump “runs” Venezuela.

If the UK government had a Culture Secretary, that person would be in a position to take a view about whether child porn on demand was a good thing, or a bad thing. thecritic.co.uk/brin...

Trump: “I am pleased to announce that the Interim Authorities in Venezuela will be turning over between 30 and 50 MILLION Barrels of High Quality, Sanctioned Oil, to the United States of America. This Oil will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, as President”

Today marks 5 years since Trump incited the deadly attack on our Capitol. Ever since, Trump has tried to downplay January 6, pardoning the rioters who assaulted brave law enforcement officers. We must continue to defend our democracy and never let this history be erased.

"Hernández boasted that he would 'stuff the drugs up the gringos’ noses' while trafficking more than 500 tons of cocaine into the US. "Trump freed him, saying, 'If somebody sells drugs in that country, that doesn’t mean you arrest the president and put him in jail'..." www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

🔴Reform Chairman Who Boasts of Expertise in Business ‘Compliance’ Had Ten Firms Struck off for Breaking Company Law Exclusive: Paul Donaghy established at least 10 firms struck off by Companies House, according to official records bylinetimes.com/2026/01/05/r...

But he also owns interests in property. “In 2022, he bought a farm in New Brancepeth, a village in Co Durham, for £745,000, which he now lets as a holiday home. In 2024, his wife, through a company, bought a property in Meadowfield, another nearby village, for £71,000.” Odd that.

Andrew Husband, (aka Andrew Tennant) Durham Reform council leader behind a “Doge”-style war on public spending is the owner of two companies which have been placed into administration owing £1.5 million, including more than £500,000 in tax, government-backed Covid loans, and staff pay. Well.

What does it mean when your doctors keep insisting you redo the cognitive exam

This does seem just a little bit bad! Idk the sort of thing you’d think politicians might distance themselves from or something!

Trump’s latest fundraising email asks supporters to check a box to “SUPPORT MAGA in this DO-OR-DIE battle.” The fine print: checking it auto-adds an extra $3,300 donation on 12/31.
