So @newcastleunited.com have cancelled the school from Dundee’s tickets for the Barcelona game blaming rogue season tickets holders, 45 of which JUST happened to be “grouped close by” enough for a school party. Riiiiiight! Pull the other one!

Nigel seems a bit triggered here.
Lying about your second home in the constituency you were elected to serve? Didn't pay any stamp duty whatsoever.
Definitely not dodgy...

“Farage claimed last year to have “bought a house” in his constituency but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home – given he already owns other properties”

Here’s some hard facts for a right wing media desperately trying to create a false narrative - Ecotricity has never had subsidies (fact one). The various industry schemes that get cited as subsidies - are not subsidies, they involve no public money (fact two).

Genuinely one of the best debuts I’ve seen in black and white. A great value signing by Rafa at a time when you-know-who counted literally every penny. A fantastic shot stopper and a seemingly decent bloke. Best of luck.

Ordinary people "feel like mugs" for paying when others feel they can get away without doing so, says Robert Jenrick, who was found to have falsely claimed £122 in travel expenses, and used his own office to help a Conservative donor avoid paying £45m in tax www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/robert-jen...
Robert Jenrick's Honesty-Dodging
That someone as dishonest and hypocritical as the Shadow Justice Secretary was not long ago shamed out of public life is a damning indictment of the state of politics and media in the UK

Farage: "Lucy Connolly should not be in prison... Understand, there were millions of mothers at that moment in time after Southport feeling exactly the same way.

Connolly was imprisoned because she posted:

“Set fire to all the fucking hotels full of the bastards… if that makes me racist so be it.”

I’m one of those dodgy immigrants who came here on a spouse visa and got indefinite leave to remain after 12 months.

The incalculable harm I have done to the UK includes dedicating my life to public service, educating thousands of British young people, and paying more tax than I’ll ever get back.

On his own social media platform, and without providing any evidence to back up his claims, Elon Musk indicates the skies over America are deeply dangerous for air travelers. And, of course, that his company - quite by chance, you understand - will be filling the breach.
