Some of the people in this article have shared their recollections with me before - but on condition of anonymity. Coming forward now is an act of patriotism. Farage’s claim that it never happened is the opposite.

The most disgusting thing about the Epstein files is the FBI and DOJ have had them for years, known what the content in them was and done nothing about it.

Starmer’s anti-asylum policies show how utterly clueless he is about the right-wing media’s role in politics.
He’s trying to fix a “problem” contrived by Farage, GB News and The Telegraph. He’ll never win, because ultimately he’s fighting a ghost – he’s fighting something that doesn’t really exist

Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.
When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.
The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

“Reform UK offers a narrative of rebellion – a way to vocalise frustration, even if its targets are misplaced.”
That frustration is real.
But people are rebelling against a system that doesn’t listen, not each other.
Change the system and the anger fades, leaving space to fix what really matters.
