Putin’s parrot

In 2018, when Sergei and Yulia Skripal were poisoned and Dawn Sturgess was killed, Nigel Farage said that Britain had “jumped the gun” in saying that Russia was behind the attack. This week, an independent inquiry has found that the evidence the Russian state was behind the…



Is the blob a cabbage?

'Nothing will change!' Former Prime Minister @TrussLiz says that even if Reform UK win the next election, ‘nothing will change’ unless they ‘take on the blob’ to ensure their policies can actually be delivered.

Time to offer young people more hope. They want to work. They want to learn. That's why we are bringing forward our Youth Guarantee offering more training and more jobs, backed by £820m of Government funding. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…


Discredited because you’ve been on it so often? (And btw it’s licence fee.)

BBC Question Time is an utterly discredited programme. No wonder half a million people refuse to pay the license fee every year.

"He doesn't live here…. what right has he got to interfere with our democracy?" Richard Tice talking about the Thailand based crypto billionaire Chakrit Sakunkrit, who has just donated £9m to reform. Sorry… my mistake! He was talking about George Soros.


What hypocrisy. Unless of course @CamillaTominey believes that is not for her, or @GBNEWS or @Telegraph to decide whether Farage is fit for office. Which would obviously require them all to be impartial on the subject and subject him to normal scrutiny.

🚩🚩🚩🔥 A UK inquiry finds Putin authorised the chemical weapons attack on British soil in Salisbury in 2018. Just a few day’s earlier, a senior Reform/Brexit Party figure pleads guilty to taking Russian 🇷🇺 bribes. This is no longer a story about ‘bad actors’. It looks like…


Hilarious. So Reform want the chap who was actually Tory home office minister and presided over the complete fiasco on our borders to be their latest recruit. Reform are just failed Tories.

BREAKING Nigel Farage says he "would be more than happy to talk to" Robert Jenrick about the shadow Justice secretary joining Reform UK. He admits people in Reform UK want the pair to enter talks. More on @GBNEWS.

Holocaust survivors urge Nigel Farage to apologise for alleged racist abuse at school itv.com/news/2025-12-0…


Yet again Farage parrots Russian talking points. Just as he did over the Salisbury attack.

Hidden in a very eventful press conference, this answer by Nigel Farage about Ukraine does feel significant The criticism of Zelensky/Ukraine will surely be used as an attack line by Labour

👏 @libdemdaisy absolutely flattened @ZiaYusufUK on Question Time. “In 2017 not a single asylum seeker arrived on a boat 👉Durham Uni proved it.” Yousef: “How many since then?” Daisy: “46,000/year” And then the killer blow: “Because of the botched Brexit deal pushed through by…

Farage has been dismissing evidence of Russian ties to the Salisbury Novichok attack since 2018 🧐

Labour source: “First he didn’t say anything antisemitic, then it was a witch hunt, then no one could remember because it was 50 years ago and now he essentially admits he did say offensive things, but without malice. He should apologise to the Jewish community.”

'I'm sick to death of hypocrisy from the BBC.' Watch the extraordinary moment Reform UK Leader Nigel Farage confronts the BBC over its coverage of racism allegations, telling a journalist he’s ‘done’ with him while demanding an apology from the broadcaster.



This doesn’t pass the sniff test

What first attracted a cryptocurrency investor to donate £9,000,000 to a party calling for cryptocurrency deregulation? mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

New: Liz Truss will tomorrow premiere the first episode of The Liz Truss Show. Billed as "A bold new programme in a media landscape dominated by groupthink and timid consensus". Truss: "The Deep State tried to destroy me but now I'm back and excited to launch this show."

📢 We did it! 🍼 After a year of campaigning to make infant formula more affordable, the PM has confirmed the Government will act. Clearer guidance + allowing loyalty points & vouchers could save families up to £500. This is what our 107,000-strong petition fought for. @MetroUK

In light of criticism Rachel Reeves has received for not telling us all in advance of the Budget about improved tax receipts, here is a salutary reminder of how Chancellor George Osborne handled his big surprise announcement in the November 2015 Spending Review. #Budget25 1/7
