The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

Farage cited Enoch Powell as his political hero in an interview in Total Politics magazine in 2008.

In 2014 he cited Vladimir Putin as the world leader he most admired.

You want this guy as your next prime minister???

When I asked Nigel Farage's spokesman last week, he flatly denied that his boss had ever racially abused anyone.

Now Farage is only saying he never did so in a "hurtful way".

Does he think there's a non-hurtful way to racially abuse someone?

The great thing about this is the fearless interviewer. Imagine if all journalists were fearless seekers of truth instead of folding in the face of Farage's prickly blustering.

We are not yet a year into Trump’s second term and already DOGE has been mothballed, MTG has bailed from Congress, the administration tried and failed to present a Russian plan to end the war, and the ‘Secretary of War’ is trying to court-martial a US Senator. Time for a reminder of this I think…

This man is basically just a posh lout. His school reports indicated this; his membership of the Bullingdon Club indicated this; his previous political record indicated this; his mass media appearances indicated this. How on earth did he ever get to be PM?

Please don't judge me just because I was friends with the traitor Nathan Gill. Instead you can judge me because I described a man charged with rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm as "an important voice for young men".

'America is British'.

It turns out Danny Kruger is peak 'Americans are the same as us'.

Until this mindset – conscious and subconscious – is defeated in Britain, we'll never see ourselves as properly European.

The last few hours have proven 2 terrible things. First, the US and Russian governments are so close that the US government takes large parts of Russian proposals and passes them off as their own, and second that some people are so desperate to exonerate Trump that they act like this a good thing.

Amongst everything else in #irevrsa game & I as a neutral I thought the referee was awful, that 1st half with the constant #TMO stuff lasted over an hour for a supposed 40 minute half, at this rate an 80 minute game is gonna run well over 2 hours, it’s ridiculous

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.

Waiting for the axe to drop on Gill insulates the government from any Faragist crap about being unfairly targeted. Although he’ll probably try it anyway. I don’t think this story is over.

And here’s another example of journalistic drivel. Where is their self respect. I used to think of journalism as a noble profession, eg war reporting, investigative journalism. Now, with a few honorable exceptions, it’s descending into shallow mediocrity. We are all dragged down and soiled by it.
It’s unbelievably embarrassing that a newspaper with some lingering pretensions to be serious would run with this kind of drivel.
