Actually, it's far worse even than this. He has more power than most nations and can hold elected governments to ransom - or destroy them. This is no benefactor to humankind. This is a real-life Bond villain.

The world's longest and loudest belch began in April 1964 and has been continuing ever since. It reached a crescendo around 2016 but experts believe the supply of hot air is now running out and will soon be exhausted. #HotAir #WorldRecord
Nigel Farage with his hand raised and his mouth open wide like a frog, proclaiming like the twat he is.

If you find a frog out in the open - especially in this hot weather - please return it to water as soon as possible. Do not dress it in a suit and elect it as MP for Clacton.

What I would like to see on 9 May is for Ukraine to make the boldest strategic move of the entire war so far. Something that absolutely demands Putin's attention – at the precise moment he is stood watching his Victory Day Parade.

This week, I will be buying a bottle of good champagne and putting it in the fridge so it's ready to celebrate the fall of Trump. There will be better times ahead for my friends in the US. And the UK too – because Trump's fall will trigger Farage's fall. Maybe two bottles, then.

Still gutted over the death of this man. In so many ways, that was the fork in the road.

Is this real? If it is, it’s the most disgusting utterance to have come from any politician in a long time - and, given our current circumstances, that’s really saying something.

UKIP and Reform - screwing the economy since 2016! PS: Brexit also made the small boats situation worse, not better. It's weird isn't it? Almost as if Nigel doesn't really have the UK's best interests at heart at all.

Why is it that when Farage talks of too many people entering the UK, he only ever seems to refer to black or brown people? He should acknowledge his true successes. Brexit reduced the number of EU workers and students so radically there is negative immigration of this economically valuable group.

It symbolises his suffering and is a common feature in art history, but absolutely ubiquitous in modern depictions. This is not an accident. 100% the prompt stated ‘Jesus’.

Translation: “I don’t want to help the UK by paying tax”. I am really growing very tired of hearing advice from super-wealthy people who so obviously put themselves first but pretend otherwise.

It has honestly been quite a strange experience, alternating between images of dozens - hundreds - of rockets raining down on cities and just one heading out into space, carrying not a warhead, but people.

MAGAs parrot the same myths. Some facts: London is safer than every major US city - 3-4 times safer than NY, LA and Chicago. You are 7 times more likely to get stabbed in the US than the UK. 700 times more likely to get shot. ‘Sharia Law’ has no legal power whatsoever in the UK. We have UK law.
