WHY isn’t Farage being charged with treason?
@labouruk.bsky.social ?
Surely what he’s done goes way past treason?
Does he get away with it because he’s rich?
It never stops.
The grubby donations. The profiteering. The lobbying. The lies.
“In 2019-20, as the UK was leaving the EU, Harborne gave £10m to Nigel Farage’s Brexit party, since renamed Reform UK.”
They make damn sure they get what they want.
We get screwed.

Instead of obsesing about what we DON'T want, pumping up NF into the bargain, why not focus on our own ground?

Send this to MPs and influencers to begin a national conversation about a better Britain in a better Europe for a better World.

I made this meme in March 2020 - Baroness Hallett validated "Too Little, Too Late" today. Johnson was so obsessed with "getting Brexit done" that he ignored experts. The impact of this was to kill a minimum of 23 000 Citizens. Shame on them.

Again. Labour will never be cruel enough for the hard right, the right wing media shills, or the majority of Reform voters yet they continue to damage themselves by trying to do so

It’s quite incredible
VERY funny that Labour are being pointlessly cruel and haemorrhaging support from their base and yet none of what they're offering is ever going to be enough for the people whose approval they're seeking, WHO could have predicted it

For me the SPS deal is another "make brexit work" bonkerism folly for the english. It's not unlike using an elastplast on a broken limb.

That said, this is one of the better summary & comment pieces I've seen on recent talks.

The notion you can attack Farage without attacking the very idea of Brexit has been shown to be a false one. Brexit and all its damage stand as Farage's track record. The other parties had ten years to relentlessly attack it. But they didn't do that. They ignored the issue. And now Farage is ahead.

Jacob Rees-Mogg like Rishi Sunak has registered all his assets in tax havens, because they don't 'belong' to him in the UK they aren't taxed here.

So his tax bill is negligible, he doesn't need to leave to dodge tax.

This con needs to be stopped.
