There's a Russian spy ship sitting at the edge of British waters. Today Nathan Gill (former leader of Reform UK Wales) was sentenced to 10.5 years in jail for taking bribes and delivering Russia supporting speeches in the European parliament. Nigel Farage is a bit quiet. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Key points: Met police say investigation into other politicians is ongoing. Gill sought to recruit multiple MEPs including 4 British ones.

The judge gave strongest possible quotes about the gravity of the crime and the damage done to public trust.

Incredible. The Chancellor rents out her house without council permission and there’s an enormous fuss and people saying she should resign. Reform members talk openly about genocide on Muslims - and, well - relative silence.
