I think this is more accurate than a lot of people on this website admit, but I also think taking it for granted is the surest way to alienate just enough people that it's not enough

Samir Zitouni and Stephen Crean are heroes who saved lives. They showed the best of Britain: putting themselves in harm's way to protect others.

They both deserve the George Cross in recognition of their incredible bravery.

Nigel Farage never did answer why he met the Russian Ambassador.

All he did was call the interviewer a nutcase.

This interview is a real insight in to how little Nigel Farage likes being asked about his ties to Russia.

Rupert Lowe on Nathan Gill, former Reform leader in Wales, who has pleaded guilty to taking bribes from pro-Russian proxies:

"I had absolutely no idea. I was new to the European Parliament, Nathan had been there for years alongside Farage - they were very close."

Nigel Farage should tell the people of #Caerphilly about how he wants to abolish the Senedd.

Actually, no need, we have a video of him saying it.

(Also about how Fox Hunting turns him on).
