Wow, the dam has really broken on allegations about Farage’s racism when he was at school. There was nothing like this intensity during Brexit - I think it says a lot about how much more dangerous he is now perceived to be. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

It appears that our Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood, has been inspired by Kirsti Noem - and finds her to have an “under appreciated intellect and eye for detail” and is now following her lead.
Isn’t that just utterly horrifying.
Of all Starmer’s picks for cabinet, she has to be the worst.

Lawyers in the US are apparently lining up to defend the Beeb pro Bono (for free) because to go to court would mean a public examination of King Donald the Mad's conduct before and after the riot.
Not to mention the programme wasn’t shown in US and he won the election anyway.

Bias is often in the eye of the beholder
So let’s stick to measurable facts
During 10 yrs of debate about Brexit, BBC QuestionTime had Britain’s Members of the European Parliament on the show 50 times
Every single one was from the pro Brexit minority
47 were from UKIP/BP
23 times Farage

Wow👇🏼👇🏼😱 It’s saying something when Epstein said Trump is the worst person he’d ever met, “not one decent cell in his body.. so yes dangerous”
You watch how fast Farage pivots from vigorous defence of his good “friend” Trump to righteous condemnation if it becomes clear he’s toast❗️

only in the small print of this article do they make clear that the pensioners paying an extra £2,500 of tax would have to have
“earnings over £125,140”
I know many pensioners are asset rich but how many have income at that level?

Govt recovers £74m from asylum hotel firms, of tax money the Tories let slip through their greasy hands to profiteers
But it’s not long before the reporter disses the achievement highlighting any negative they can, ignoring the fact that the previous Govt recovered zero❗️
