okay I can see this is coming from the replies so: to be clear I'm not saying Farage having been racist at school doesn't matter, what I'm saying is that I find it weird that the media is going soooo big on this when they'd mostly remained quiet on the many, many dogwhistles of current day Farage

I do think the racism probe is important, but equally I do wish journalists would become equally concerned about potential links between Putin and Reform and given the conviction of his sidekick as well as massive donations from mysterious billionaires nobody has heard of who live overseas.
Nigel Farage has gone to war with the BBC after a radio presenter suggested he had “a relationship when he was younger with Hitler,” vowing he would not speak to the national broadcaster until it apologized for its own past “racist” content.

5️⃣ EU diplomats explicitly say UK is disqualifying itself from closer alignment
“If UK chooses U.S.-style pharmaceutical rules, it is clearly not aligning with the European model.”
“This will make regulatory cooperation much harder.”
“You cannot build a single market relationship on US standards.”

We all know trickle down economics doesn’t work. Is there an example of “trickle up” in the real world that works? I want a killer analogy for my next argument. I’m always arguing.

It's a pity we can't harness the energy created by so much confected outrage. I'm no fan of Reeves but our overwhelmingly right wing press is descending even deeper than normal into the political mud without actually shedding light on the budget detail.

Ah, a quick google search reveals her as a rentagob for GB ‘news.’
I know which one is qualified to chair the budget debate.

Not convinced Starmer asking Farage to launch an inquiry into his own party is going to work. Of course, Farage will look guilty if he doesn't, but it's too easy for him to say "Yep, done it. Nothing to see."
Starmer should be asking MI6 to investigate, then make the results public.
