The core argument here is unanswerable. For liberal democratic countries, buying American weapons is a security risk. It must be avoided at all costs.

I mean... holy shit.
From Rasmus Jarlow, Danish politician: "I don't know if there is a kill switch in the F35's or not. We obviously can not take your word for it. As one of the decision makers behind Denmark's purchase of F35's, I regret it. The USA can certainly disable the planes by simple stopping the supply of spare parts. They want to strengthen Russia and weaken Europa and are showing that they are willing to do tremendous damage to peaceful and loyal allies like Canada just because they insist on existing as a country. I can easily imagine a situation where the USA will demand Greenland from Denmark and will threaten to deactivate our weapons and let Russia attack us when we refuse (which we will even in that situation). Therefore, buying American weapons is a security risk that we can not run. We will make enormous investments in air defence, fighter jets, artillery and other weapons in the coming years, and we must avoid American weapons if at all possible. I encourage our allies and friends to do the same."

There's a rumour that Nigel Farage is keeping his head down because he's off to a Trump cheerleading conference over the weekend.

I’m afraid I’m being proved right- Farage is far more interested in Trump's success than British security. He is a bootlicker and a plastic patriot.

Ukraine represents truth. Russia represents lies. Every time we speak the truth, we support the war effort. Every time we reject lies, we help defeat the enemy.

The lies are the point
The Ukraine war has never been entirely military, or even territorial. It is epistemic.

If you don’t want history to be re-written please share this video widely - because the only way to stop that happening is to constantly call this boll**** out with the actual facts

If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it

We cannot allow them to rewrite history.

If you agree share this FACT CHECK widely

70k signatures to rejoin the EU. Big petition, timely too - polling shows the public is in favour. Let’s get it to 100k and push Labour to debate rejoining. It’s the glaringly obvious solution our economic problems and the rise of the far right.

Even the BBC admits there are no Brexit benefits.
Nigel Farage & Boris Johnson are useless liars and charlatans.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

So Nigel Farage has replaced Boris Johnson as the MP trousering the most money from other jobs.

Farage has pocketed over £570,000 in outside income in just six months.

I brought a Bill to ban all MPs' Second Jobs.

I'll keep pushing to end this racket once and for all.
