It is interesting that Jeremy Corbyn has been an MP for 42 years and led the opposition for 5 years.

He's been on Question Time once.

Nigel Farage, 44 times.

Our Media is corrupt, corrupt to the core.

Boris Johnson was paid £2,291 an hour by the offshore Farageist owners of the Telegraph. He delivered the Brexit they craved. Who had he been working for, them or the British people? Big money payments to parties and politicians must be made illegal. Politics must not be a billionaires' plaything.

🔴 Nigel Farage’s Reform is more reliant on super-rich backers than any major party in modern British political history
