Why is every newspaper in the land not on the case of the £850,000 funding for Farage’s Clacton gaffe?

Imagine the carnage if he was a female Labour MP?

Has #Farage or #Reform answered- or been asked - any questions yet about Nigel's No 2's treachery? #BBC? #ITV? #Channel4? Or any recent news of #ArronBanks 'charming' Russian wife?

Farage can now be easily boxed in to a corner where his only ‘defence’ becomes: “Yes I spouted Kremlin propaganda & Putin worship but, unlike Nathan Gill, I didn’t need bribes to do it.”
It is, once again, a question of whether interviewers have the temerity to shut down his whining obfuscations.

Petrol stations should be legally required to display the price per 50 litres on their big signs, not price per litre. I want to know whether it'll cost me £60 or £75 to fill my tank there, not how many pence a juice carton of it would be.

The idea of some Battle Royale between UK PM Keir Starmer and [checks notes, incredulously] Health Secretary Wes Streeting would be funny if it wasn't so tragic. Get on with the job, not the theatre, ffs!

Bike Rack Design 101:

Staple racks are a great form, but the material shape is key. Hollow round tubes can be silently and quickly cut with a simple pipe cutter.
​Square tubing or thick flat steel makes this type of theft much more difficult.
Bericht aan alle #wegbeheerders: fietsnietjes met (holle) ronde buizen zijn gemakkelijk te saboteren! ✂️🚲

Daarom mijn advies om enkel fietsnietjes te installeren die gemaakt zijn van van dikker platstaal. Zoals we doen bij #Maintain!
