My favourite musical, and still as powerful today as it was 50 years ago.

I’m sure Indian billionaire, Sunny Varkey, wants to give Farage a ton of cash to improve the lives of the people of Clacton.
And definitely not to lobby for crypto or fossil fuels or to have first dibs on the firesale of British assets (eg the NHS) that Farage is bartering for power.

I just finished reading and it is so much worse than I even imagined. Palantir effectively controls some of our most sensitive data - from nukes to the NHS - and Palantir is loyal to the US.
NEW: Our investigation for @thenerve_news reveals not only that Peter Thiel’s Palantir is completely enmeshed in our critical national infrastructure.
It’s also the ‘cloud support’ for our nuclear weapons system 🤯

“Air pollution fell substantially as Paris restricted car traffic and made way for parks, people-streets and bike-lanes.”
Better for the climate, better for health, better for livability and quality of life.

Farage’s Brexit was peddled as “taking back control”. It’s been a shitshow. And not because we didn’t leave the ECHR. But because flouncing out of our cooperative arrangements backfires.
Prejudice makes for easy slogans but ruinous policy.
We should be very wary of this simplistic bullshit by now.

Not a statesman. Not strong. Not patriotic. Not principled.
Farage is a traitorous little shit who is too compromised and too desperate to please Trump, to serve the best interests of our country. He will only ever betray us because he has to see Brexit through to the bitter, broken end.
