Dear Bluesky,
www.thenerve.news is still tiny. We launched it with no dirty money (no money at all, lol!). But we're proving what's possible with a small expert team & no billionaire owners.
We knew the UK press wouldn't understand or properly cover this story, so we did. Thank you for the support!

Seems @Nigel_Farage is trying damage limitation on the Reform Russian Bribes scandal.
He’s known Nathan Gill for 20 years, and claims he knew nothing.
No one believes you, Nigel.
Keep the story moving. Questions must be answered.
