At every step of the way Farage has parroted Russian strategy.

The left joins with right against the middle takes on the Trump/Mamdani meeting are way off. There is nothing substantive here. There will be no policy breakthroughs. That’s not what this is about. It’s about a young smart guy who knew how to play an old fool who worships stars.

As a long term environmental activist it may not a seem natural part of the territory to be talking about defence and demanding greater strategic independence from the USA, but actually it all fits - climate change, justice, democracy, COP, Ukraine, Putin-Trump-Gaza-Saudi Arabia etc.

*Gasp* I can't believe Russia has been flooding the internet with far-right propaganda bots pretending to be Americans.
X has changed their policy and now you can see where the accounts are based.

Excellent thread. Ukraine gets little out of these 28 points except the possibility of EU membership (still subject to Hungarian veto?); Putin gets plenty, inc a favourable starting point for next assault on Ukraine & return of all but $100 billion of immobilised Russian assets, plus US investment.
Here is Trump's full 28 point plan for Ukraine. It would destroy Ukraine as a sovereign state and leave it helpless to face a Russian attack in the future. It would also give Putin full vindication and immunity from prosecution.

Trump is pressuring Zelenskyy to sign the so-called peace treaty negotiated by the US and Russia by Nov 27. It basically gives Russia everything it wants and Ukraine nothing, and bases it on Russian non-aggression guarantees which are worthless.

There are so many things the government could be hammering Reform with, but they are not, and I genuinely think most of their supporters have no idea what most of their policies are, or their connections with Trump and Putin.

Essential reading on Trump’s capitulation to Putin, and his disdain for freedom and democracy. Europe needs to rally behind Ukraine and stand free of the US.
Just sent out this free piece. There was a weird and widely spread attempt in the media yesterday to create a fiction, that Trump's peace plan for Ukraine and Russia was a rogue operation by Steve Witkoff. That finally fell apart--and it’s important that it did. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

I do wonder if the advent of personally curated news makes it almost impossible for governments to be popular - at best they’ll be tolerated - because as people tune in to what they care about it only takes one issue to turn them into disliking a gov - even if they may still grudgingly vote for them
Keir Starmer's net favourability rating falls to its lowest level to date (-54, 16-17 November), within the margin of error of Jeremy Corbyn (-55) and Boris Johnson's (-53) lowest ratings
