Let me get this right. A known con man is saying he's going to build hospitals that will keep people alive forever, but he's not going to let them be purely for the elite. Out of the goodness of his heart, anyone (with enough money) will be able to use them.

Ever heard of “med beds”? A conspiracy claims secret, futuristic healing pods, based on alien technology, that cure any disease and even reverse aging. Allegedly suppressed by global elites, but soon to be delivered to the masses by Donald J Trump, according to a fake Fox News video he posted.

This is good (for once). Farage has to stay front & centre for almost 4 more years & I don’t see how he can without edging ever closer to the National Front credo that’s always animated him. For now, Starmer must wait until he’s *blatantly* racist before using the term. Otherwise it loses power 1/2
