Sorcery in Caerphilly:
@johnsweeneyroar.bsky.social visits the Welsh valleys on the trail of a Russian spy, his wife, a Reform politician taking bribes, party leader Nigel Farage and a vanishing by-election candidate.

I’m a fan (and supporter of) ByLine Times but think some credit is also needed for the investigative work of #CaroleCadwallader (formerly of #TheGuardian and now at #TheNerve) that she did from 2015 onwards and at significant personal cost after she was also sued by those backed by #RussianMoney

Not on that place any longer! But I will definitely keep an eye out for TheNerve and Carol, thank you…

Carole was right. Someone who has thenerve.

NEW: The British politician, his Russian intelligence handler & a Kremlin plot against the US & Ukraine.

My new piece about Nathan Gill and Nigel Farage for @thenerve_news in which we ask:

Why, even now, is no-one asking questions?

I am just going to say that this is all about good & wholesome stuff. Yes, you can disagree, but I know my mind. Sisters quite frankly doing it for themselves. Arethra Franklin would be proud!

Support independent journalism everywhere. Now more than ever, we need journalists who are free to talk truth to power, hold political leaders to account, & protect democracy -

Congratulations. Thank to everyone involved in setting up the nerve @thenerve-news.bsky.social. We need this and I wish you all the luck and success I know you will earn and deserve. You have my favourite and most respected journalist in the English language, so I have a new favourite news provider.
September 26, 2025 at 6:55 PM
You are very welcome, @thenerve-news.bsky.social.
I am now a subscriber to The Nerve, maybe even a founding member, but I don't know if I am one of the first 200?

If I am not, then many congratulations on a superbly successful first day.

will be preaching to the converted on a tiny scale, just like byline times. I wish them well but their impact will be very limited.

#Toto talking about ‘respect for competition’ after the 2021 season is hilarious. #Mercedes basically stated that competition deserved to crash and went partying whilst they were in hospital. #TheNerve #F1

Out of all the lifestyle/jvlog community I really only miss Mimei's content. I know she's doing well, being a Mom and buying her daughter's first PreCure merch with PDR so that's good.
I just miss her style of filming and the humor.
If I ever got to visit Tokyo and saw them I would not have thenerve
