Sky news just showed a clip of Ruth Davidson saying "Im glad the Queen isn't alive to see this, it would have broken her heart"

Everyone should proceed on the assumption that Donald J. Trump is proven to be a child rapist in the Epstein files.

If that assumption were incorrect, Trump would have released all the files by now to prove his innocence.

Heartbreaking from @yasminalibhaibrown.bsky.social on the very real damage Farage and Reform are doing to our country and shared future.

“Brexit was the first, deep cut into that optimistic, multiracial Britain. What has followed was entirely predictable.”

Reform’s white nationalism will extinguish everything good about Britain
If they gain power people will realise – but far too late

Hordern was never going to benefit from leaving the EU. It is one of the absurd things that the areas that benefited most from EU funds had the highest vote for Brexit. #bbcpm

Look at that ridiculous man.

The crown prince of entitlement.

Nigel Farage lashes out at a FT journalist and refuses to answer the question.

Is this how Reform UK would ignore media questions if they got into government?

Could we have an international sporting body that isn’t a corrupt and loathsome moral vacuum please?
⚡️ The International Paralympic Committee will allow Russian and Belarusian athletes to compete under their own national flags at the 2026 Games.

The IPC has granted 10 athletes from Russia and Belarus invitations for the upcoming Winter Games in Italy from March 6-15.

The only question worth asking at these incredibly flash Reform press conferences that take place every week now, is who is paying for all of this and what do they want in return bsky.app/profile/pete...
I’m in Westminster where Nigel Farage is about to unveil his ‘shadow cabinet’ and the decor is slightly bonkers. Looks like he’s going to launch a Simon Cowell-era boyband instead.

Hillary Clinton:

"The Trump administration's position towards Ukraine is disgraceful... The effort that Putin and Trump are making to profit off the misery and death of the Ukrainian people is a historic error and corrupt to the nth degree... He has betrayed the West. He has betrayed human values."

This is now literally the lead story on BBC News Scotland. The employment situation of a private individual harassed via lawfare is deemed the main headline for national news. This is genuinely sickening. The media is a cancer upon this country.

Huge applause as Starmer declares Britain has moved beyond the Brexit years. One of the strongest EU speeches by a PM in decades - yet barely covered by the BBC or MSM. While serious leadership is ignored, airtime still goes to Farage and recycled outrage. Kuenssberg, Zeffman, Mason, Gibb - out.

Today’s #Huddersfield Daily Examiner letter argues that optimistic pro-Brexit language has vanished - replaced by blame, negativity and what the author calls “Red Flag Bingo.”

What would you add to the bingo card?

There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.

Jim Ratcliffe has my full support. Anyone who lies about population figures, claims £120m in public money for his own company after paying no UK tax at all, while immigrants pay at least £15bn is my kind of guy!

Asked if Ratcliffe was right to apologise for his racist statement about Britain having been “colonised” by immigrants, Farage replies,
'It’s probably in the dictionary definition correct, but perhaps people aren't quite ready for it’

No. It’s not, Nigel. It’s just racist. And wrong. Much like you.

We don’t have a functioning democracy when the people who lied to our faces to ‘get Brexit done’ are never held to account for the damage they’ve caused… and, worse still, are rewarded for life, for cynically or moronically selling our country out.

They deserve nothing but our contempt. Forever.
