Elon Musk's businesses can once again be held accountable to the rule of law as a result of Trump no longer corruptly shielding his interests.
Given Musk's use of X to destabilise democracies, action should be urgently taken.
Great to discuss on Sky News.

You know the West is in trouble when the US President cares more about Netflix taking over Warner Bros than Russia taking over a European country.
Q: Should Netflix be allowed to buy Warner Brothers?
TRUMP: That's a question. They have a very big market share. I'll be involved in that decision

One coercive aspect of communications under Conservative rule was using Civil Service accounts for political purposes.
It’s hugely disappointing to see Labour do the same.
It’s completely inappropriate in a liberal democracy where there should be a strict separation of party from state.

Farage attempts to campaign in Scotland:
"I've got a friend of mine, by the way, who's got a Scottish mum."
Even the Reform UK audience couldn't help laughing at his desperation.

I like Ed Miliband.
But my head explodes at the thought of him issuing another apology if he loses the next election after snatching Starmer's massive majority - having already led Labour to s crushing defeat in 2015 after refusing to step down despite dire personal polling for years.

Reform UK have accepted £9 million from foreign-based businessman Christopher Harborne.

"He doesn't live here. He doesn't pay taxes here. What right has he got to interfere with our democracy?"

This is an entirely preventable attack on our democracy.
A £9m donation from a man based on the other side of the world is illegitimate interference that will distort and unbalance our political system.
I'm deeply disturbed by Labour's failure to insulate UK democracy.

Anyone looking to Your Party as a vehicle to advance genuine political change should think again.
These are manifestly unserious people doing their darnedest to confirm beyond any doubt the cliche of the hard left being chronically consumed by ego wars to the point of total paralysis and impotency.

The antisemitism allegations against Farage should alarm the entire British electorate - but most of all Jews.
British Jews should reject Farage's phony support. We should not permit the far-right to exploit us as pawns to attack fellow ethnic and religious minorities.
Good to discuss on i24 News.
