🚑 Ambulances reached patients faster in December than any time since Covid.

Response times for serious emergencies, like heart attack and strokes, were 15 minutes faster in December than last winter.

Farage’s trip to Davos this week was hosted & paid for by the $10bn family trust of an Iranian-born billionaire!

Ghandehari, who invited Farage, is the son of the late Iranian-Kazakh billionaire Hourieh Peramaa, who once owned one of London’s most expensive £50m properties.

This is David Marsh. He went to my old school.

He is one of the small number of European troops who went to Afghanistan and never did much nor went to the front line according to Donald Trump.

He died in 2008 aged 23 in Afghanistan when the patrol car he was in was blown up in Helmand Province.

Farage always has to find some way to suck up to Trump. He's a treasonous frog-faced tool.

So easy for Farage to overlook a mere £333,000 when he is coining it at the rate he is.
Maybe he left the paperwork in his Clacton constituency office as he is never there
Or didn't have the time to get to Clacton between visits to Washington and Davos to see The Orange One.
NEW: NEW: Standards commissioner finds Nigel Farage committed seventeen breaches of MPs code of conduct.

He failed to declare £333,000 in outside interests (more than 3x MPs annual salary)…

Good recovery from being too ill to go on TV Sunday morning.

Funny that!
For well over a decade, Nigel Farage criticised Davos and just two years ago criticised Starmer for going and calling him a

"full-on globalist, hanging out with his mates at the World Economic Forum."

So, question. Where do you think Nigel Farage is going today?
