Farage's protégés, colleagues & close friends.
Not sure shouting "Bernard Manning" like a closing time drunk will help much here.
Three more British MEPs in Nigel Farage’s bloc now alleged to have “followed the script” given to Nathan Gill by an alleged Russian asset, according to prosecutors.

At least eight UKIP and Brexit Party MPs were focus of efforts by Nathan Gill

Trump supporters are demanding he throw us in prison for our reporting. If they think those kind of threats scare us, they don’t know who they’re dealing with. Our message. 👇

All John Bolton has to do is announce that his name is in the Epstein Files; and Trump will protect him forever.
Washington Post v. Democracy Docket on today's Bolton news.

I cannot express how dangerous it is that legacy media is normalizing Trump's targeting of his political opponents. I don't like Bolton. But what is happening here is dangerous and wrong.

Today, the Pink Protest gathered outside Downing Street, claiming immigrants are a threat to women.

We talked to counter-protesters from Stand Up to Racism, they told us:
“We are terrified that women’s safety is being used to justify hatred.”

🚨NEW: After last year’s general election, Nigel Farage promised that “‘bad apples’ that have crept in will be gone” from Reform UK.

But our team has exposed yet another so-called “bad apple” who has worked for the party since the election. 👇

This happened in full view of Sky News cameras and a bunch of police just standing there. Why is THIS not on the news all day? Why don't we show people what these thugs are turning the country into? I could only find it on the far right TikTok page that proudly boasted about the incident. SHARE!

UK 30 year gilt yield, down from the breathlessly reported 5.75%, is now 5.51%.

Not that you will hear this from all the journalist accounts who were gunning for Reeves all week.

Russia released video of themselves targeting and murdering Danish humanitarian volunteers working to remove unexploded ordnances from Ukraine.

A few hours later Trump invited Putin to the FIFA world cup because “he’s been very respectful of me and of our country…”

He’s always so shit in the face of decent questioning. Absolutely amazing how rarely it happens.
Democrat @raskin.house.gov excoriates Nigel Farage for banning journalists from Reform UK events:

"I'm asking you a direct question. Why do you ban journalists who oppose your views from coming to your events? Why did you tell local government not to do interviews with your local newspaper?"

You did it. The neo-Nazi gig planned for Great Yarmouth has been CANCELLED. ❗

Over 34,000 of you emailed the Home Office and spread the word. Local press, councils and police took notice, and under pressure, we have just received the news that the venue has pulled the plug.

Dragon House in York was defaced with racist graffiti last week, targeting a family who’ve been part of their community for over ten years.

One window cleaner from Crystal Clean Services stepped up to clear the abuse.
