By rights, Farage’s shilling for Putin should have disqualified him from UK politics. He knows it, and is now trying to spin what he has said previously.

Fortunately, @sturdyalex.bsky.social has kept the receipts. Please do listen and, importantly, share.

I see Nigel Farage is back to claiming he "predicted" the war between Russia and Ukraine in the EU Parliament, when in fact he spoke AFTER the annexation of Crimea, to defend Russia and claim it was all the EU's fault.

I did a full fact-check, with clips, here:

I’d love to be able to but it won’t be possible this time. ’ll keep it in mind for the future. It’s just really tricky to organise.

Just finished @nevfountain.bsky.social's "Lies and Dolls". Absolute genius. Very very funny with more than one fiendishly clever reveal at the end. Next Kit & Binface mystery when please?

Nev Fountain wants you to buy his book please. @nevfountain.bsky.social · Aug 12

So buy it as a birthday present to me! Sales do matter. They make the difference between this being the last book in the series or just the second of many. Order it from your local bookshop if you can. It encourages them to stock it.
This ends this public service announcement…

Brilliant idea. Excellently executed. Funny and clever. Reading in public spaces can make you bothersome. #laughoutloud. 🤣👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Nev Fountain wants you to buy his book please. @nevfountain.bsky.social · Aug 12

In 2024 I took another shot at the idea, this time with a different detective and this time it fitted perfectly. I reworked it as a more direct homage to Agatha Christie’s ‘And Then There Were None’, with a number of misfits inside a large house, waiting for the next murder.
