It never stops being important that, no matter what the subject, politicians like Farage, Trump & Rubio are entirely untethered from the most basic requirements of honest discourse. They might turn out to be telling the truth sometimes but only ever in the spirit of stopped clocks.

Liar. Small boat crossings peaked under Johnson in 2022 reaching 46,000 in 2022. In current year they are 18,565 and falling. Also prior to Boris Johnson's Brexit there were none.

It's a disaster, and it can all be traced to
Labour ideology. Burnham has no mandate
from the people. He has no real ideas, and
no plan,

So now we get to hear from Trump that he doesn’t believe US intelligence that China is helping Iran with targeting and weapons because his good friend Xi told him they weren’t.

It may have seemed quiet due to Western media focusing on other areas, but the Houthi / Saudi war in Yemen is still raging. This was in the last hour. Missiles headed for Saudi Arabia intercepted. The Bab al'Mandeb Strait is still closed to Saudi-aligned traffic and controlled by the Houthis.

Listening to @mrjamesob.bsky.social and remember 11th Sept 2001. Was working in a factory shop in Scotland. My husband was in RAF air traffic control. He called me, as they'd seen it on Sky News at work. I was later telling American customers how sorry I was, and they seemed totally undisturbed.

Chris Mason (BBC) reports on his “interview” with Nigel Farage. It’s not an interview. It’s an idiotic, moany rant from Farage about how he’s being picked on cos he reckons he’s a threat to the establishment. And Mason just folds like a wet cardboard box in the face of this delusional bollox.

Farage pictured with his innocent face on… (it’s hideous - my opinion)

Nigel Farage insists he's 'broken no rules'

He added: "The point is, we live in a complainants' society. If you complain about me, automatically that triggers an investigation."
He said that political parties were "constantly writing to all the authorities", meaning Reform was "under investigation every day for virtually everything we do".
"There's a big picture here. The old two-party system that has dominated since the end of the First World War feels for the first time it faces an existential threat.
"There is a whole ecosystem with a century of development around this. And we come along from virtually nowhere and threaten the whole thing.”
