The true English patriot reducing British international influence - never!
Plans by Reform UK to cut the aid budget by 90% would not cover existing contributions to global bodies such as the UN and World Bank, shredding Britain’s international influence and risking its standing within those organisations.
Reform plan to cap aid at £1bn would damage UK’s international influence, critics warn

In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services.

Now the UK owns nothing and has £3tn of debt.

While Norway still owns everything and has the equivalent of £10tn.

That's how privatisation 'works'.

Given his party's association with Putin, it's an insult to those British politicians who serve their constituents without foreign interference to be accused simply because of the colour of their skin. No doubt the denial that he is racist will come 🥱
This Reform mayoral candidate just can’t stop questioning minority ethnic politicians’ loyalty to the UK. He’s done it over and over again. Nigel Farage should have sacked him two weeks ago. He must sack him now.

Badenoch can recruit the 10,000 extra officers, but for some women the cases of Carrick and Couzens will not be easily removed from memory by this extra capacity.
Kemi works in Westminster where sexual abuse and misconduct are completely endemic. In the last parliament, 2 MPs were convinced and jailed (Elphicke and Imran Khan), Hill lost an Employment Tribunal case and Donaldson was charged. In this parliament, there are 2 pending cases (Norris and Spencer).

'For years the Labour party has been under pressure to take the issues of foreign interference, and dark money in our politics, more seriously. However, a nervousness inside Downing Street about being seen to question the Brexit result...has meant that little so far has been done.'

Absolutely.
The idea of “imported” violence against women and girls is a deeply comforting fiction - one that allows people to avoid looking at where it actually happens: within our homes and behind closed doors.
The Violence Isn’t Imported. It’s Domestic.
Kemi Badenoch’s attempt to blame violence against women on migrants doesn’t just collapse under scrutiny - it actively distracts us from where the harm really happens, and who is actually responsible.

Farage can hardly sanction one of his Party's candidates when he is evading accountability for the very same allegation. Of course, he may also agree with every single offensive word Parry has uttered therefore, no sanction necessary.
Nigel Farage has been slammed for failing to sanction a senior Reform candidate for a string of "racist and abhorrent" attacks on politicians.

Shout out to @yorksfella59.bsky.social for highlighting this important development that I would have otherwise missed. Troubling if this is where people get their "news" from.
Dear God... Where are we going, what are we doing?

Somehow calling it GBeebies doesn't seem funny anymore. It's not the teletubbies, it's a far-right propaganda channel.
