Farage hopes he can breeze into power without scrutiny. But his racism, corrupt donations, shady links to Russia and MAGA… make it harder for him to hide. And his tantrum reactions to being challenged reveal him for the nasty inadequate he really is.

The Wheels Are Falling off the Nigel Farage Project
The Reform leader's increasingly rattled public appearances betray a growing sense that the opportunity of a lifetime could be about to slip from his fingers

Farage's former right hand man in Wales, Nathan Gill, has been sentenced to 10.5 years in prison.

He was taking bribes to spread pro Russian propaganda.

Betraying Britain in support of a foreign power is the opposite of patriotism.

YOUNG PEOPLE. LISTEN UP.

Today Nigel Farage said the government should cut the minimum wage for young people

...to “raise aspiration” and “boost business"

It's £10ph FFS!

Lower your pay so you’ll dream bigger

“I would gently point out to Nigel Farage that before we left the EU we had a returns agreement with every country in the EU. He told the country it would make no difference if we left. He was wrong about that. These are Farage boats in many senses coming across the channel” 👏

It is very nearly the tenth anniversary of that brief moment when, for 2 or 3 days, British newspapers remembered refugees are desperate human beings who need our help, rather than scum that it's okay to threaten with violence.

£4.8 billion, the increased annual trade with India

£140 billion, the lost annual trade outside the EU

Why is the UK poorer? Because the Conservatives took us outside the EU Single Market with Brexit, and Labour are keeping us outside the EU Single Market with their 'make Brexit work'

We will never forget the support, the arms, the excuses, the empowerment, the cowardice, the cover-ups and the media bias that led to this.

Alcohol free beer has transformed my visits to open mic nights (which are usually too far to walk).
Although I doubt that anyone else notices, swigging a big glass of Vimto is a bit of a vibe-killer for me, and the facsimile of a couple of pints of beer is almost as relaxing as the real thing.

Company execs collect up to 575 times median worker pay. Workers get crumbs.

2016 -2023: 3m workers denied minimum wage. No prosecution.

P&O Ferries illegally sacked 800 workers. No prosecution.

Companies secretly blacklisted trade unionists.

Democratise corporations or become corporate slaves.
Taming corporations is the key issue of our times
To appease corporations, people may raze mountains, divert rivers, clear forests, cover countryside in tarmac and shower subsidies upon them, but they have no loyalty to any place, people or product.

Is it wrong to expect my gay friends to be tolerant of naturism?
I know that there are some qualitative differences, but to accept people for what they are should be a two way street, right?

His decision was heavily influenced by pressure from the organised left & socialist coalition.
