Ex-Reform leader Nathan Gill has just been jailed for 10.5 years for taking money to push Moscow’s line in the European parliament.
So when Nigel Farage echoes Kremlin narratives… is it sponsorship or sincerity, and which is worse?

As UK imposes radical asylum rules, how do the numbers really compare to Europe?
Home secretary Shabana Mahmood is carrying out one of the largest reforms to the asylum system the UK has ever seen. But is the overhaul really proportionate to the numbers arriving on UK shores? Alex...

There are some truly unhinged bits in the piece about Glasman, as to be expected when dealing with Glasman, but seriously what the actual? That's...one hell of a conflation of terminology.

Even though the crowd was very large, police made protesters take the underground passageway to get to the front of the parliament.

Huge amounts of the focus on misinformation/disinformation goes on the idea of things like “Russian bots” and “Russian influence ops”.
That’s the 1% bit of the iceberg. The 99% is people doing it to turn a profit, because it’s easy money. And the platforms largely ignore it because they get a cut.

13k comments on one tweet is a massive payout. All of the tweets follow a certain formula, so the content is likely automated using AI technology (e.g., AI generated images and text). Basically running it as a money printing machine. But for those in the US, it translates to low simmering rage.

Please don't judge me just because I was friends with the traitor Nathan Gill. Instead you can judge me because I described a man charged with rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm as "an important voice for young men".

NEW There's no overstating how significant the Nathan Gill case is. On Friday, the close associate of Nigel Farage was jailed for over 10 years for taking bribes ultimately from a friend of Putin. It's a complex, detail-heavy story that raises questions about Farage’s claim Gill was ‘one bad apple’🧵

I have the misfortune of living with a Reform led council here in Kent. They are completely out of their depth and spend most of the time fighting each other. They are draining reserve funds and will still have to up tax by 5%.
Hopefully their voters notice getting less for more money.

It’s a sign of how insane the news cycle is these days that this historic failure of government policy got just one day of news coverage this week.
Not saying that’s right or wrong, but it’s astonishing how quickly the agenda moves on these days.
