Reform's former Leader in Wales, Nathan Gill, a 10.5 year jail term for taking bribes from the Kremlin.

Cosied up to authoritarian powers & traded principles for payoffs. Reform's leadership laughably claimed they barely knew Gill.

Will all this be on tomorrow's front pages?

I am very pleased to announce that Phil King/@junkshopper's 'Lush: A Far From Home Movie', is now on YouTube for all to see.
I very much enjoyed appearing with Phil last year at various events, at home abroad, discussing the film with him and the audience.

Every personal attack.

Every attempt to distract or to divide.

It energises, strengthens and empowers our movement.

That’s a ridiculous decision. Had no impact on the ball and keeper wasn’t getting there anyway. And I’m not a Liverpool fan.

Spare some love today for Collingwood. The other Admiral at Trafalgar.

Proud northerner. Hater of flogging. Legit brilliant commander and Nelson's trusted right hand. First into battle on Royal Sovereign. Took charge after Nelson was sniped and saved the British Fleet.

Here's HIS Trafalgar... /1 🧵
