Having watched The Hack, you're clearly doing well as the millionaire media moguls are rattled.

A Free Press, Not a Free Pass – It's Time for Fair Regulation

Meanwhile…

The left may have fought for women's suffrage; for healthcare for all; for collective bargaining; for minimum wage; for paid leave and sick leave; for pensions; for the 5 day week; for all of our rights; for literally every single thing that makes the day-to-day lives of everyday Brits considerably better now than they were in Victorian Times.

Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia.

Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?
