Democratic Wins Media

In defiance of Vladimir Putin and Viktor Orban, protestors in Hungary stormed the streets to voice their opposition to authoritarianism. This is being almost entirely ignored by mainstream media. Let’s make it go viral.

Why is the Reform Party's Russian links not a major news story?
Given how much the China spy case has dominated headlines, it really does beg the question: why is our political-media class so uninterested in Nathan Gill, his Russian bribes, his once close associate Nigel Farage, and Reform UK?

🇺🇦 “This was truly a unique operation. And now I can say: the ‘office’ for this op inside Russia was located right next to an FSB headquarters.

117 drones were used, striking 34% of Russia’s strategic cruise missile carriers at key airbases. Our teams were safely extracted in advance."

100% agree - Andy Burnham, Manchester Mayor

“Let me say something about this situation. The biggest rupture in all of that [Nigel Farage and Reform gaining votes] – is Brexit. I think partly, what Labour now needs to do, is talk more about Brexit, and how it has damaged this country’s prospects”
'Labour must start speaking about extent of Brexit damage' - Andy Burnham
At a time when Labour needs more straight-talkers and clearer messaging, Andy Burnham has popped something in the suggestion box.

From Carole Cadwalladr:

Trump & Brexit are not 2 different things.
They are the same thing.
Same companies.
Same data.
Same Facebook.
Same Russians.
Same Cambridge Analytica.
Same Robert Mercer.
Same Steve Bannon.
Same Breitbart.
Same Alexander Nix.
Same Donald Trump.
Same Nigel Farage.
