The BBC is already giving Nigel Farage coverage for a speech he hasn’t even delivered. Report on what he says tomorrow, by all means. But previewing it now gives him free publicity and lets him set the agenda before anyone can scrutinise his words.

The idea that rejoining the EU would take the UK a decade is a myth. Finland went from application to full membership in less time than it took us to negotiate and sign a trade deal with India. bestforbritain.org/uk-rejoin-eu-sin…

Ofcom rules are clear: broadcasters cannot use politicians as newsreaders, interviewers or reporters in any news programmes. So why is Farage allowed to have his own show on GB News? Add your name to demand that Ofcom takes immediate action.

She was on the intersection of arrogant, dogmatic and wilfully ignorant. I used to think she was evil but am now inclined to stupid; she seemed to genuinely believe corporate ownership would make things better. What an arsehole.

We are currently generating 100% of our electricity demand from net-zero sources, with a further 10% being exported (plus 10% more from legacy gas). At a cost of just £8.27/MWh. Yet the Tories and Refuk want to take us backwards to more fossil fuel pollution and higher prices... grid.iamkate.com

Being in the EU isn’t a magic solution to our problems, because it is the elected UK gov that decides domestic policy. But being back in the EU would mean more tax revenue to invest in public services, and help ease the cost-of-living crisis. #RejoinEU

22 California billionaires have spent a combined $150 million so far to defeat Prop 40. By spending their fortunes trying to stop California from taxing billionaires, they're making the argument for a billionaire wealth tax more clearly and articulately than anyone else possibly could.
