Before calling someone a “dirtbag,” the Senator should have had his facts straight. An apology is in order. Glad one of us knew the difference between the Atlanta Hawks and the Iowa Hawkeyes!

England is a made up thing. It has no basis in the ineluctable laws of nature. Its extent is defined by Edward II getting his arse handed to him. Athelstan conquering York. The Welsh of Cumbria were incorporated, the Welsh of Gwynedd were not. It is a political idea, an aspiration - not taxonomy.

Lucky enough to get an advance copy of this - Gary Kemp and Simon Halfon’s book that tells the story of everyone in Brian Epstein’s 1967 address book. One of my favourite Beatles books of the year - takes you into Brian’s world - beautifully written, really well designed - officially recommended.

Not this c*nt again... After getting the Brexit he pushed for, he shifted chunks of his UK businesses over to the EU - plus himself to low tax Monaco. If everyone damaged the UK like that faketriot, we really would be f*cked. Surprised he's not relocated Man U to Europe yet.

So the ‘negotiation’ involves blowing smoke up Putin’s arse, asking him what he wants then attacking Ukraine for refusing to concede it. Never forget the huge swathe of UK media & political figures who celebrated Trump’s ascent while claiming to care about Ukraine. Absolute heels, the lot of them.

So, a criminally convicted billionaire money launderer bought himself a pardon from a criminally convicted fraudster president for $10m. Now he thinks he can buy the oldest democracy in the world for £36m. If the UK's democracy is to survive we need a public inquiry into party funding NOW

Jon Stewart hit the nail on the head. For decades, politicians used 9/11 heroes as photo-ops, only to turn their backs when those same first responders needed healthcare for toxins that destroyed their bodies. Basic human decency shouldn't require a public shaming campaign!

In light of these new allegations about illegal funding, it is my opinion that Nigel Farage should step down as MP for Clacton. He should then stand again in the by-election and let the people of Clacton decide if he’s guilty or not of breaking electoral law. 😉

With all respect to the BBC, the reason this story "matters" is not about whether it distracts from Reform's conference. It "matters" because it is important our leaders are not conspiring to break the law.
