If you have a few minutes this weekend, do check out my new article in 'Nigel's Notebook'. It's partly about the many benefits of Brexit, so it's quite short. parodypm.substack.com/p/brexit-epi...

I'm furious about the two Iranians who came across as part of the surge in small boats created by my Brexit and under a Home Office run by my MPs Suella Braverman and Robert Jenrick.

A man builds an IED. He sets it off in a busy public street. Shrapnel flies about hitting cars, homes and a child's bedroom. It's a miracle nobody is injured. And Reform MP Sarah Pochin calls his imprisonment "disproportionate" and "two tier justice."
It does raise this point of two-tiered
justice..


Reform's Sarah Pochin believes the
sentence handed to the 64-year-old who
blew up a ULEZ camera was
disproportionate'.

No matter what side of the aisle you’re on, this argument should be chilling. Trying to limit freedom of the press under the guise of national security is what tinpot dictators do. That’s not how a functioning democracy works.

So, £72million from crypto billionaires to get Reform “ready for government”. Absolutely no chance. They have over 300 candidates to find and this is their track record… They attract total liabilities and Reform is too racist, corrupt and idiotic to recruit anything better.

This is why the media in this country needs regulating. I can guarantee there isn’t an iota of truth to anything that’s being said here. Their only intention is to keep this nonsense on top of the news agenda.

Half of Russia’s six largest diesel-producing refineries are now either shut down or operating at sharply reduced capacity after Ukrainian drone strikes. That’s not just an inconvenience. It’s a direct blow to the fuel supply that keeps Russia’s war machine moving.

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.”

Just Trump allying America with one of the most egregious dictators on the planet against one of the USAs closest allies in Asia. When is enough enough?
Based on my very good relationship with
Kim Jong Un, of North Korea, I am not happy
with the fact that the United States has, long
ago, agreed to participate in Joint Military
Exercises with South Korea. These exercises
are not only costly, with much of these costs
paid for by the United States of America (as
usual!), but send a signal that is totally
inappropriate and hostile, to a Country that,
as long as Donald J. Trump has been
President, has been unthreatening and
respectful. Therefore, and based on the fact
that it is too late to cancel, I have instructed
Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to
substantially reduce the Joint Military
Exercises! While somewhat unrelated (?), I
recently asked the President of South Korea
if they would like to join us in the


Denuclearization of the Islamic Republic of
Iran, and they said, "No thanks!" Thank you
for your attention to this matter. President
DONALD J. TRUMP
