Something I noticed this week was Keir Starmer is in the most unfortunate position any PM has been politically… well I’d argue ever.

Sure there have been other PMs facing bigger crises… Johnson with Covid, Brown with financial crash, Major with Black Monday etc etc

But let me explain

This is the man the BBC elevated & is refusing to investigate despite @carolecadwalla.bsky.social l & @bylinetimes.bsky.social
having done all the work for them .
Do we have a precedent for a this ? A national broadcaster ignoring possible treason , isn’t that in itself sort of treasonous 🥴 ?
Seems @Nigel_Farage is trying damage limitation on the Reform Russian Bribes scandal.

He’s known Nathan Gill for 20 years, and claims he knew nothing.

No one believes you, Nigel.

Keep the story moving. Questions must be answered.

My colleagues & I have taken a huge gamble to set up @thenerve.news We’re trying to build a new independent publication from the ground up. Social media is our only distribution for now.

Sharing this article in your networks would make a huge difference. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
NEW: The British politician, his Russian intelligence handler & a Kremlin plot against the US & Ukraine.

My new piece about Nathan Gill and Nigel Farage for @thenerve_news in which we ask:

Why, even now, is no-one asking questions?

Ming Campbell was a dedicated public servant and a true Liberal giant.

His principled leadership opposing the Iraq War was a mark of his morality, courage and wisdom.

But more than that, he was an incredibly warm and caring friend and colleague.

We will miss him terribly.

Even this mythical BS figure of £234bn is £234bn over 50 years.

So yeah, in reality its nothing, and his plan will cost a fortune.

More like -£234bn.

They're obviously terrified of THIS photo of Donald with the world’s most notorious paedophile making headlines while Trump visits the King.

So whatever you do - DO NOT SHARE THIS VIDEO
