Apparently, they don’t hand out a Nobel Peace Prize to those who negotiated a ceasefire they had sabotaged a year ago just to get elected.

It’s time that Russia’s malign influence on British politics was properly investigated.

Agree? Add your name 👇🏻

It’s time for a REAL Russia report

Putin’s fingerprints are all over our politics. It’s time to prove it.

This tweet has been doing the rounds on Twitter now that Nathan Gill has pleaded guilty.

If only someone had tried to investigate UKIP & Russian interference 🧐

There’s another timeline where the Guardian supported me, doubled down on the investigation & I look 5 years younger ..

Who was president in 2020? There appears to be a concerted effort to get you to forget

‘Who was president in 2020?’ Trump and GOP want you to think it was Biden | CNN Politics

If you asked people what the worst one-year period in recent American history was, it’s a good bet that many would choose roughly between January 2020 and January 2021.

So it now appears the woman Farage and Gill were so close to has a direct link not only to Putin’s “Man in Ukraine” Medvedchuk, but his predecessor as President, Medvedev

These are top Russian agents.
