Farage hopes he can breeze into power without scrutiny. But his racism, corrupt donations, shady links to Russia and MAGA… make it harder for him to hide. And his tantrum reactions to being challenged reveal him for the nasty inadequate he really is. #NeverPM www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/the-wheels...

Never have I seen such a perfect example of Schrödinger's Migrant. Zia Yusuf, asked whose PIP Reform would cut, talks about "foreign nationals". Less than a minute later, same "foreign nationals" are taking all the jobs and damning British youth to life on PIP. 🤡 Utter clownshow. ~AA

Farage: "I now understand more than I did the role of the state in strategic industries. This is why Richard and I went to Scunthorpe. If we hadn't gone to Scunthorpe, there would be no primary steel made in Britain today." Does he genuinely think his bandwagon photo-op saved steel? NURSE! 😂 ~AA

So, Sunday Times runs with latest poll showing Farage winning if there was an election now. But makes NO mention of Reform’s collusion with Russia. And this is how democracy gets beaten to death in the dark. Voters are not being told the truth. Reform is given the stage but is NEVER held to account.

For there to be no comment from the government on Musk's call for violence, let alone action against X, is unconscionable. An utter dereliction of its responsibility for national security and an affront to every member of an ethnic minority, who is being put at risk by this rhetoric.

"What's wrong with putting a flag up?" they ask. Like saying, what's wrong with planting a geranium? Nothing wrong with it. But if you're bankrolled to go out, in groups, at night, planting *thousands* on public land and other people's front gardens, it becomes something other than horticulture.

My primary impression of Rayner's arrangements regarding her child was what an amazing example of a "good divorce" this was and how dedicated both her and her ex husband obviously are to their co-parenting responsibilities and their children's welfare. I have not seen this mentioned anywhere once.

Farage dodged parliament, went to the US, slagged off the UK, lied to Congress, grifted for donations and hoped to persuade the US to punish us for the Online Safety Act. And got his arse handed back to him. You’d think our ‘patriotic’ media would go nuts. But no. Some quiet mumbling. Beyond feeble.
