Reform may have the most coherent political vision since Blair – and the most radical since Thatcher

I haven't been listening to Today for the past few days
Coming back I was shocked by the hectoring tone used with Darren Jones
Of course it hasn't been a good week for Labour, but denigrating democratic politicians as a class does nothing but serve the rise of fascism in this country

Last November Farage told Sky News:
“I’ve just exchanged contracts on the house that I’ll be living there in – is that good enough?… *I’ve bought a house in Clacton* What more do you want me to do?”
Oh, I dunno Nigel.

This is for those of you who think not getting vaccinated against anything is a good idea I suggest you look up "Iron Lung" and see if that's what you want for your children. We got vaccinated for polio when we were small. And you know nobody said "NO" to that. Common sense, people.

The parliamentary register of interests shows that Farage has made nearly £400,000 from GB News since August 2024, for c190 hours’ work. This suggests he is being paid more than £2,000 an hour by the news channel. All paid to Thorn In The Side Ltd owned solely by Farage

If this is the case then Trump would be a hero after it’s all released in the Epstein Files.

Just spoke with my CDC sources.
They said RFK Jr. has ordered officials to hide tuberculosis cases, even as three active TB cases were just reported in Maine. He’s also suppressing bird flu reports.
Pandemics don’t start with viruses they start with secrecy.
RFK Jr. must resign now!

You should pay close attention to what is happening in the USA, Nigel Farage will do exactly the same in the UK.
It is very easy to destroy things like the NHS and Elections for good, and that is exactly what he will do.

UPDATE: This just got worse. Donald Trump apparently cut a secret side deal for MILLIONS in pro-Trump ads.
That would mean Paramount and its soon-to-be owner are shelling out $30 MILLION+ to support Trump—all while trying to get his approval on their merger.
Is this bribery?
