For the first time, the British government has acknowledged that Russia interfered in the 2016 Brexit referendum. So who did BBC Newsnight invite on to discuss what happened? Sergei Markov, Putin’s former spokesman. Par for the course, says Nerve co-founder @carolecadwalla.bsky.social 1/

The total weaponisation of the poppy over the last ten years by the right is undoubtedly one of the more unpleasant and depressing elements in our national pantomime. It's become a de facto nationalist symbol.

CEO pay is up 1,316% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 28%. CEOs are now paid 325 TIMES as much as the typical worker in their industry, according to @epi.org Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Farage being deliberately misleading by pretending the Govt have only announced that the donations cap will be retrospective as a response to Refuk's recent £76m. In reality, Govt made clear in March that the cap would apply from then. Perhaps if Farage sat in the House more he would have known...

The Observer announced another share issue today for an additional £10m funding as print circulation drops from 114k to 90k. It’s notable that in the same time period I have built a circulation of 124k for my personal Substack..having set it up amid fears I would lose my job (as I in fact did).

Farage should attend a park run, a game of football, a Primary School in Clacton, a Prom concert before he goes all "Broken Britain" The country is NOT broken. It's millions of people, born without Farage's privilege, trying cheerfully trying their best for their families and communities.

Three senior Reform figures were involved in those Channel 4 revelations we saw last night. Two have been kicked out. The third is Nigel Farage. Farage should be suspended while this matter is investigated. He has very serious questions to answer.

Maybe the rules are just dandy Nige... maybe the problem lies with someone else
Farage says Reform UK's bank
account has suspended several
times, claiming this shows money
laundering rules too strict
Nigel Farage, the Reform UK leader, has
revealed that his party's bank account has
been frozen several times.


In an interview with the BBC's political
editor, Chris Mason, Farage said this was
evidence Britain has become a
"complainant society' where too much
time is spent in investigating unfounded
allegations.


Farage was responding to a question
about why - as the Sunday Times revealed
in July - Reform UK had its bank account
frozen for two weeks ahead of the 2024
general election over concerns about
potentially illegal donations.

The Tories f**cked Britain with austerity and Brexit then made it a whole lot worse by putting Truss in power to test out the batshit ideas of Tufton Street think tanks... They are not only a spent force but proven architects of decline who are in no position to lecture Burnham on anything ...
