Orbán’s pay cheques: Reform candidate fuelled by profits from Russian oil
The Reform candidate at this month’s byelection claims he wants to put Britain first, but is he still on the payroll of Viktor Orbán’s far-right propaganda unit?

Reform policies crumble when faced with a fact check and challenging questions. A shame that the majority of the so called journalists are unable to do this.

A really good summary of the issues around Diego Garcia from Ben Judah - and shows why the UK right, who are deliberately using foreign powers to destroy the deal, are betraying the national interest.
There is a very good reason both the Tories and Labour backed this deal in power.

Over the last 50 years, it's Tory Govts that have presided over the big falls in the military - and for the entirety of their 2010-24 reign of error defence spending fell below 2 1/2% of GDP.
Yet another issue they left Labour to sort out.
Not that one would realise that from the right wing media.

👀 👀 Look how much Reform funding has come from Tory donors!
Nerve investigation finds:
🟡 Donors giving to both parties at once
🟡 Tory donors switching to Reform, jacking up amounts
🟡 Reform donors giving to specific Tory MPs… who then defect to Reform

“The full unreleased files shows Donald Trump raping children”.
Does this help explain why the adjudicated rapist, and the man who says you can grab them by the pussy and do whatever you want when you’re a star, is prohibiting his justice department from releasing the files?

If only all journalists were like this with Reform (i.e. highlighting the truth, holding them to account, pointing out their hypocrisy and attempts at gaslighting the voters)...then they would be back down in single figures in the polls.
