If the subject of the Β£5m donation scandal was a member of the Cabinet, a senior SNP, Plaid or Green politician, he or she would be getting doorstepped an monstered everywhere they went. The double standards are sickening

This is a brilliant investigative piece on Farage, the dark millions behind him and the double standards of so much British journalism. Read and retweet! Nigel Farage pocketing Β£5m from a donor shows he’s unfit for power app.prospectmagazine.co.uk/s…

If you think your vote doesn’t count… Our local ward has a population of ~6.5k, polling data predicts that Reform UK may win with a 3.4pp margin - that’s about 220 votes - however with turnout at only ~33%, there could be less than 80 votes in it. Remember to vote.

Ladies and gentlemen, meet Seema Kennedy * Former MP for South Ribble, * Former Private Secretary to PM Theresa May. * Former Minister for Public Health. * Former Minister for Immigration. In 2020 was appointed to the board of Ofwat water industry regulator for a term of 4 years but actually left in May 2025. In 2021 was also appointed consultant (senior adviser) to Peter Mandelson's firm Global Counsel who was lobbying govt on behalf of the water industry at exactly the same time govt was trying to pass the Water (Special Measures) Act in 2024. Now there's a happy little coincidence.

If Russia is banned because it contradicted Eurovision’s mission of peace and cultural unity… Then why isn’t Israel?

It’s really simple… - Cap all political donations - Ban foreign donations - Strict conflict‑of‑interest & anti‑corruption laws with penalties - No titles, honours or peerages for donors - No govt contracts for donors - Publish every donation/lobby meeting …that’ll do it

Because successive governments have slashed Sure Start, youth services, mental-health provision, and family support. Poverty has doubled since 2010. Domestic violence, addiction, and despair have been left to fester. When society abandons families, the State steps in late, expensively, and usually traumatically, then hands the bill to private providers who cream off millions. This is not market failure. This is the market working exactly as designed: turning human misery into dividends.

Blue light in London is from a laser at a trade fair in Islington. Thought they were coming for me. But was just a company showing off. Beautiful colour too. #islington #bluelight #bluelaser #bluelaserinlondon

Truthful and unbiased. Did they pay you to make such a ridiculous statement? How does a channel full of Reform MPs and advocates not have an agenda? It just happens to be the one you agree with so it’s ok.

1) People only qualify for Motability if they meet the enhanced rate of the mobility component of PIP. 2) People do not get Motability cars for acne, tennis elbow, ADHD or any other specific condition. 3) Motability cars are not free. 4) Quit spewing lies and hate. πŸ™„β™ΏπŸ‘Ž

Boris Johnson appears before the Covid Inquiry for the second time today. It should be headline news but as usual @BBCNews and the rest of the rotten media suppress its significance. #bbcbreakfast #skynews #gmb

Policing football matches in the UK costs Β£30m a year. The billionaire Premier League pays just Β£7.4m of that. Isn't it time they pay for policing before giving their players Β£500,000 a week?

Farage fails to pay Β£400,000 VAT. It's an oversight. Rayner failed to pay Β£40,000 stamp duty. It's fraud. Two tier or what? #FarageMustResign

Nathan Gill. Nathan Gill. Nathan Gill. Nathan Gill. Nathan Gill. Nathan Gill. A politician of any kind who takes bribes from Russia, but especially a friend and colleague of the man we keep being told will be next PM, should be as well known to this generation as Philby was to mine. Thanks to a media blackout to help Nige Nathan can walk down any street in the land unrecognised and unbothered by journalists. What weird times we live in
