It's pretty bonkers that the British press would bring up Jeremy Corbyn appearing on Russia Today a couple of times in the early 2000s at every opportunity, yet the Welsh leader of Reform literally pled guilty to taking money directly from the Kremlin and... Farage gets to shrug it away.

I despised the woman, but she must be spinning in her grave at what Cameron and his successors have done to the tory party. Hardly anything to celebrate.

Gill Tate @gillyhx.bsky.social · 12h

Tories seem to have forgotten who first did business with China and which party has wrecked the economy through Brexit and mismanagement to the point where the UK is so dependent on foreign investment.
Still, Starmer has made a massive mistake here.

Gill Tate @gillyhx.bsky.social · 12h

If true, this is a massive mistake by Starmer.
But the tories have no right to criticise. It was Cameron and Osborne who courted China in the first place. It was tory policies that indebted us to China and tories wrecking of the economy that has put the UK in need of further foreign investment.

To wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark, lamentable catalogue of human crime.

That is our policy.

Be clear

Farage/Reform want to remove rights for women

1. Its manifesto states ‘to repeal the equalities act’

2. Remove us from the european convention on human rights which protects women

3. Remove us from the UN charter for human rights which protects women.

NO WOMAN should support them‼️

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.

How much of a role did Jonathan Powell play in the company being allowed to build the factory.

Mr Powell is a senior advisor to Sir Keir Starmer but has been involved in a row over Chinese spying and has been criticised for his links to China.

He's not escaping UK tax, he is avoiding paying his fair share of UK tax. He made his fortune from the UK & is not prepared to help fund the society that helped him make his fortune. It's shameful behaviour.
