‘What is now emerging about Nigel Farage is not a single stupid comment or one heated moment…
…when someone tells you who they are, over and over again, it is wise to listen. So look at his politics. Look at his rhetoric. Look at the company he keeps and the division he trades in.’
Brilliant piece by @labourlewis.bsky.social on why the Nigel Farage racism allegations matter.

If we end up rewarding a politics based on the instincts of a racist schoolyard bully, we should't be surprised at what follows bylinetimes.com/2025/12/10/n...

Welcome to Britain, a country so short of dentists that an MP's 87-year-old mum pulled her teeth out with pliers. Also a country with thousands of foreign-qualified dentists who can’t work until they pass an exam so oversubscribed it’s like trying to book Glasto tickets. www.ft.com/content/f4e5...

The extractive economic model is responsible for Welsh poverty.

Community ownership and the circular economy can change that.
