That Farage is an untrustworthy self-serving liar is not exactly news. That our state broadcaster regard him and his business Reform UK as a political force that must be respected is the real story, why are they so scared of challenging him?

Religious hate crimes continue to rise as a result of Farage, Jenrick and Robinson’s evil, racist rhetoric that clearly aims to divide racially integrated communities.

Once upon a time, the glut of Reform scandals would have sunk them. But we live in a post-truth, Trumpian era, where lies, corruption, fraud and incompetence are just water off a duck's back. Deny and deflect - their supporters don't care.

I'm not clever enough but someone should merge this with a picture of Zia Yusuf speaking to another interviewer denying that anyone in Reform knew Gill, and make it look like they're standing next to each other.

Greg Bagwell on X: "Nathan Gill was convicted on 26 Sept. On 29 Sept Zia Yusuf denied anyone in the Reform leadership knew him. Finally, 11 days later, Nigel Farage admits to knowing him for over 20 years and says he is stunned. So stunned that he stayed completely silent for 2 whole weeks…. https://t.co/ai1AG8j22M" / X

This is so saddening. A child, for goodness sake. Any attack is shocking, there’s no details, does she have dementia? No excuse in any case. I am so sad, Farage, Jenryk and their ilk whipping up such hatred. They are the real criminals.

Farage, now socialist, is pretending to back left-wing policies - the same man who spent years whipping up hate, demonising migrants, and torching the welfare state. Don’t be fooled. This isn’t a change of heart - it’s a desperate grifter sniffing votes wherever he can. #ukpolitics
