The thing is, most of us knew the essence of the stories about Farage many years ago - but the media still had a complete love-in with him, and the BBC built him up relentlessly.

THIS DAY in 2019, leading up the Election, Boris Johnson, avoiding all public scrutiny, refused to be interviewed by the BBC's Andrew Neill, despite EVERY other Party Leader having already done so. The memes were pretty good.

Lots of news coverage this morning about £28 billion investment approved to upgrade the UK's energy network.

BUT: The majority of the spending – £17.8 billion - announced today is to maintain Britain’s gas networks rather than build new transmission lines.

Bank of England waking up?

BOE to stress test private equity and private credit industries, can't compel firms to participate.

Some will volunteer, only to impose their will on the outcomes.

Industry is estimated to have assets of £8.23 trillion.

Govt pushing for deregulation.

She’s not a ‘tragic figure’ any more than Johnson, Trump, Farage, Johnson, Jenrick, Michael Gove, Michelle Mone etc are. They are deeply cynical chancers, parasites who care nothing for the damage they cause. Here’s another. Sick, yes, tragic no!

“In 2017 there was not a single asylum seeker who arrived on a boat. Today we have 46,000 a year and do you know why? It was because of the botched Brexit deal pushed through by Boris Johnson and championed by Nigel Farage. Nigel Farage should be here apologising”

Farage had to come out hiding early because Tice tried to defend him earlier & libelled the target of Farage’s vicious anti-semitism. Rarely have two people deserved each other more.

Nigel Farage.

The man who's spent 20 years attacking the politically correct "woke" BBC now attacking it for... checks notes ... "showing the Black and White Minstrel Show in the 1970s".

Always good to be consistent Nigel.

Reform accepted £9 million from a former Boris Johnson backer & crypto-multimillionaire.

Today, Nigel Farage postures as a righteous defender of the same democracy he actively undermines.

Democracy should never be for sale. It's time for a cap on political donations.

Well, seems that's the end of Eurovision as we know it.
Just because the EBU has no balls & no morals.
Well done to the countries who've withdrawn.
Will the UK do the right thing? Probably not.

So tell me again how Nigel Farage, who just took the largest ever political donation, from a Tory mega-donor, and another donation from the Viscountess wife of the non-dom owner of the Daily Mail, is planning to "take on the establishment"

Zia Yusuf is busy patting Reform’s grassroots on the head, insisting there’s no need to panic about Tory MPs parachuting in — they’ll still get first dibs on the candidate list, honest.
The only thing is, the soothing bedtime story is being told by a former Tory. 🤨👇
