This map shows the radioactive cloud moving through Europe after the 1986 Chernobyl disaster. This was super scary and set off a strong anti-nuclear sentiment. To this day the Green political movement is linked to its anti-nuclear roots. Source: buff.ly/30L9Qu9

Farage can now be easily boxed in to a corner where his only ‘defence’ becomes: “Yes I spouted Kremlin propaganda & Putin worship but, unlike Nathan Gill, I didn’t need bribes to do it.”

does our government have the guts to release it ?????
The right wing elite are ruthless in protecting their own and getting what they want.
They wanted Johnson. (And what a disaster that was for us).
Now they want Farage. (Would be an off the scale catastrophe for the country).
Time we woke up to the betrayal.
