Farage is going to Washington to badmouth his own country and invite an alien power to help him more aggressively to become its PM - there's no other way of looking at it. #r4today

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations
When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

Hey British media,
It’s no surprise that if you give Farage the run of the place, he’ll start winning.
Time to do your actual jobs and start interrogating him on his Brexit shitshow, his funding, his Trumpiness, his idiotic manifesto, his real plans for the NHS… instead of drumrolling him into No.10

This is shameful. Via today's Observer:
In just one year, the UK exported nearly 8,500 tonnes of pesticides banned on our farms.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Ukraine gave up nuclear arms (Belarus, Kazakhstan, South Africa too) in 1996.
Received security guarantees from US, Russia, UK, France, China.
Russia attacked it, US wants its wealth, China is silent, UK/France can't defend it.
What are security guarantees worth?
More countries will go nuclear.
