Nigel Farage must be the world's unluckiest man.

A magnet for “bad apples” — corrupt traitors, the violent, and racists — who somehow, inexplicably, keep ending up in his orbit to taint his flawless image.

Every day is a good day to point out that 92% of Reform's donations were found to come from figures and groups linked to the fossil fuel industry. @desmog.com

Reform UK has received more than £2.3 million from oil and gas interests, highly polluting industries, and climate science deniers since December 2019, amounting to 92 percent of the party’s donations...

Sick of people shouting Farage is our saviour, Well, time they heard it from the horse's mouth, this liar is not to be trusted.
Looking at some of them, they look like they're never away from a doctor, and no deep pockets to pay.
REFORM VOTERS, WAKEN UP!

How are we supposed to take this legislation seriously when you can find yourself in legal trouble because of suspected terrorism but then walk out after a three month stretch? He might not even do time if he’s guilty; if that’s the case, he’s literally paying a terrorism tax. Ridiculous.

Can’t they be sued and forced to take the word “news” out of their name (like Fox in the US) - lies are never news

Depends how things pan out in the US and by extension here (UK).

Hmm, were they not frustrated to have been specifically prohibited (by the Tories) to investigate Russia’s known involvement in Brexit?

I don’t recall them issuing any statements then.

Nigel Farage claimed that Warwickshire County Council had blocked Reform’s inquiries into their financial accounts.

The truth? Reform never made any inquiries.
