Is Farage still facing scrutiny over his partner’s £885k Frinton home.
Is it aggressive tax avoidance? Has he misled voters? Where’s the transparency? What’s happening?
Just asking questions.

Mason declares that in his judgement we have been misled by Rachel Reeves.
It feels unprecedented that the BBC has made a "call" on a story, and is something that was absent throughout the terms of notorious liars such as Johnson.
There were certainly no "calls" about Brexit lies.

What we're seeing is exactly what we saw in the late 1940s, the late 1960s and the mid- to late 1970s: a concerted and hysterical campaign to delegitimise a Labour government, and indeed the very idea of Labour governments at all.

Why are people suddenly pearl clutching over income tax thresholds?
Where have you been for the last 4.5yrs?
The freeze has been in place since Apr 2021, when Chancellor Sunak froze them from 2021 to Mar 2026!
Then Chancellor Hunt froze them further in Autumn 2022 to Mar 2028!

🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.
A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it:
A 6–8% hit to GDP
That's £180bn-£240bn a year
It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything.
Brexit made Britain MUCH poorer.

It really matters because Farage relies on both a veneer of public ‘respectability’ *and* an undercoat of racism to further his bid for power. He won’t get there without both. So, it’s very important that the ‘respectability’ element is justifiably stripped away.
