I wonder whether he’ll also boycott LBC if/when I ask exactly the same question about him…
Nigel Farage has gone to war with the BBC after a radio presenter suggested he had “a relationship when he was younger with Hitler,” vowing he would not speak to the national broadcaster until it apologized for its own past “racist” content.

It's pretty extraordinary timing in a case that has been running since 2020 & publication of Russia Report.
@carolinelucas.bsky.social @benbradshaw.bsky.social @alynsmith.bsky.social have persevered even tho they've now left parliament.
Why - even now - is UK govt refusing to investigate???

If a radio host is fired or suspended, but has no listeners, then did it actually happen?

These are dark days. But for Starmer, the collapse of the old order is a moment of political promise. He can use it to remake his premiership and the continent: new political space has unfolded before him in every direction.
Will he seize it? New writing from me.

I hear Nigel Farage is declining interview requests. First time for everything, I suppose. I suspect he’ll eventually speak to whoever is least likely to challenge him properly.
