Farage, who was paid £189,000 in January to promote gold bullion in his spare time, is currently wanging on about how out of touch the Labour frontbench is. Ok

As Farage is about to set out his economic vision, let’s recall that Kent County Council was due to be Reform’s “flag ship” demonstrating they are ready to Govern

KCC is increasing council tax, despite pledging to cut it, and has now had to ask the opposition to help them try and find savings❗️🤦🏼‍♂️

Farage: "I now understand more than I did the role of the state in strategic industries. This is why Richard and I went to Scunthorpe. If we hadn't gone to Scunthorpe, there would be no primary steel made in Britain today."

Does he genuinely think his bandwagon photo-op saved steel? NURSE! 😂 ~AA

Word is Rachel Reeves is considering a 20% "settling-up charge" on the business assets of the ultra rich who decide to flee the UK for tax havens.

The "exit tax", to reduce revenue dodging, is already used by most other G7 nations, so it can't be claimed as "anti-business".

It could raise £20bn.

If this Labour government had even the scintilla of any political nous it would now be showing pictures of some of those the Conservatives and Reform claim they'll deport. From the famous sports players to the people who keep public services running.

Cool, I look forward to Witkoff pressing his boss to hand over the predominantly English-speaking region of Georgia to the UK.
🥴🤡Trump envoy Witkoff pressed the Ukrainian delegation on handing over Donetsk region to Russia during a meeting on Friday, - WP.

He used the Kremlin's key argument that the region is predominantly Russian-speaking.

Farage is doing a big media push to deny he has any links with Putin and Russia.

It’s obviously starting to hurt.

Imagine all Americans had constitutional rights to bear arms against a government that was out of control and acting in a non-constitutional way against them!

Also imagine those "rights" had been used to justify the killing of innocent children.

Just imagine what those people could achieve...
