This is where we are at. For what? For nothing. For stupidity. For ego. For an old, demented malignant narcissist who expects the world to jump at his every whim. Well, when you follow international news you can see that the world has pretty much had enough of his bullshit.

Minnesota is more than what you see on TV.
We’re a state that believes in the dignity of all people. We feed our kids and take care of our neighbors.
I’m proud of the ways Minnesotans are meeting the moment with decency and generosity - as we always do.

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?

We as the UK have been fruitlessly chasing the mythical US-UK Trade Deal for what feels like decades now, and even cut ourselves off from our biggest trading partner, the EU, to do so.

Key question for Farage. There’s nothing new, reforming or anti-establishment about Reform.
Exactly the same people, corruption, uselessness and racism just sidling over to the Reform/Tory recycling bin. And he’ll never fix the mess the Tories made because they made it for Farage. He is the mess.

Sky's Rob Powell asks Nigel Farage that, given Robert Jenrick is the 7th person to have served in Boris Johnson's government to defect to Reform, how can his party be "a new, reforming force" when it is "bringing in so many people who caused the mess that you're trying to clean up"
