Reform accepted £9 million from a former Boris Johnson backer & crypto-multimillionaire.
Today, Nigel Farage postures as a righteous defender of the same democracy he actively undermines.
Democracy should never be for sale. It's time for a cap on political donations.

It's Farage at his absolute weakest - thin-skinned, easy to offend, and nurturing a persecution complex.
He’s a vile man, no intellectual ability, just attacks anyone who disagrees with him.
A Trumpian drip.

Not to be overly obvious here, but many people seeking asylum need phones to keep in touch with loved ones, access crucial information etc. Having a phone isn't a "luxury item" anymore. It is a necessity for many people. Taking it away has serious implications.

If you're concerned about the erosion of anti racist norms and the rise of the far right, you have to factor in two solid years of bipartisan British complicity in this genocide. What do you think our government's role in this racist bloodbath tells us about the state of our political culture?
Analysts told me that they agree with @amnesty.org in that Israel's genocide in Gaza is not over.
The mass killing has slowed but the conditions for life & society have been destroyed and are not being allowed to be rebuilt.

It makes me so angry that WS is treading the path of so many Tory health secretaries before him - peddling the lie that poor mental health and rises in cases of neuro-diversity is about 'over-patholigising' when really he's looking to win points by reducing the welfare bill.
We see you Wes!

Wes Streeting claims there are too many diagnoses of anxiety, autism, and ADHD. But when people are oppressed by neoliberalism, and others cannot comply with its demand for uniformity, he is really seeking to destroy evidence of dissent for his toxic worldview. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/12...

The health secretary, Wes Streeting, has ordered a clinical review of the diagnosis of mental health conditions, according to reports.
