Today I learned that stalking a 17 year old girl, writing up a 400 page 'dossier' about her, falsely reporting her to the police and smashing her phone does not constitute 'harassment'.

One wonders what *would*.

Hopefully he will be bombarded with questions about his and his party's links to Putin and Russia.
Farage is speaking at Venue Cymru tonight.

Last revamped in 2018 with £1.8 million of EU development money and another £1 million in business development cash.

Original development also received significant EU funding.

Farage, by contrast, will give Llandudno nothing but hot air and lies.

Scammers are posing as immigration attorneys or government officials and demanding large upfront payments and in some cases, it’s hard to tell whether they’re scammers or untrained ICE personnel. Once they get the money, they disappear, leaving families without real help and with even fewer options.

Proper journalism and facts (remember them?) about the far-right infiltration of the BBC.

Byline Times is the only news source I "trust".

The leaked ‘BBC Bias’ memo Trump used to attack the BBC was authored by Michael Prescott — a Hanover lobbyist paid by US tech/media giants tied to Trump. Full story: bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/b... 1/12

Maar kijk wat hier gebeurt: een machtige lobbyist van Oracle zit achter de aanval van Trump op de bbc. Door media te ondermijnen of kapot te maken komt er meer ruimte voor ongebreideld kapitalisme. Democratie en ongebreideld kapitalisme gaan niet samen, vandaar de huidige aanval op de democratie.

What you’re witnessing is a populist assault on the BBC.

This is not an institutional scandal in any meaningful sense of the word. It is an attack on public service broadcasting.

Panorama made a stupid editing mistake. But compare this to the deliberate and systemic attempt, sustained across years, to ensure that BBC output aligns ever more closely to the demands of economic power. Against your straw of bias, I raise you a haystack.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

Why do I hear from a US member of Congress that Farage admires Putin the most as a leader?
