The CURRENT sitting MP for Clacton earns £511,000 as a presenter for GB News and took £281,000 as a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion.
So maybe sit this one out, you rancid herring.

RefUKuenssberg gave, yet again, a platform to an unelected millionaire, Mo, representing a party with just 5 MPs, to talk shit about things he hasn’t got a clue about. #ukpolitics

🤯 Only 63 of Labour's 401 MPs voted against Farage's bill to leave the ECHR. Why?

Political interference in the operational independence of the police is a serious concern in a democracy, because it undermines police impartiality, & public trust & confidence. Starmer is well aware of this, so one would be justified in being v. suspicious of the government’s motives.

No Scottish parties support leaving the ECHR.
The parties that do are all based in England, but stand candidates for election in Scotland. Then promote the spin HQ developed to appeal to voters in England.

Labour is telling you VERY LOUDLY who to vote for if you value human rights. And it's definitely NOT LABOUR.
Woah! So Labour's position really is, 'telling us off for breaching human rights undermines the case for human rights'? Proper Trumpian stuff from Labour's answer to Suella Braverman.

Let’s not forget when the Tories were last in office - according to international Human Rights Watch - the UK was on course to make the list of countries that abuse rather than protect human rights

Javier Milei had to beg a bail-out and already needs another. Argentina's economy is in a tailspin. Gov't bonds and peso in freefall. People starving, throwing rocks at him.
Farage last year: "He's amazing. It's Thatcherism on steroids. Cutting and slashing expenditure. That's leadership."
