Reform’s mission statement:

“Conservatives have failed and Labour will fail too…
We are ruled by an out of touch political class who have turned their backs on our country.
Reform is the alternative”

Where ‘alternative’ = exactly the same stitch-up and failure inflicted by the same wealthy elite.
FT Exclusive: The Reform UK leader told donors he expects a deal or merger between his party and the Conservatives ahead of the next general election, suggesting he does not believe he can sweep to power alone. on.ft.com/44xlHi0

It's all bad but hadn't seen the bit where Farage says:

"The European Union is the prototype for the New World Order."

That is a seriously, deeply problematic term that taps into Illuminati and antisemitic conspiracy theories.

How the fuck did this man direct the course of our politics?
We kept the receipts. These comments, taken together, paint a picture of the man he is today.

Len Pennie is such an astute, powerful and often funny young Scottish voice. Her poetry is marvellous and her Scots Word of the Day a wonderful window into our rich language.
It was an absolute pleasure talking to Lisa on the Braw & the Brave podcast about abuse, poetry, and snatching joy from the jaws of pedantry. Yous can listen here 👇

It’s time that Michelle Obama file malicious defamation charges against lunatic Felon Grandpa.
He’s reposting & quoting serial harasser Alex Jones, who lost his defamation appeal to the Supreme Court.
Trump, Guiliani & Alex Jones owe victims for defamation & should have weekly wages garnished.

When Farage claims to be a man of the people, he is correct.
Except those "people" live in Moscow.

Our media has become the story. What they decide is newsworthy, what they scream about, who they accuse, who they excuse, who they blame…

They have an agenda entirely of their own. Not one rooted in public interest or national responsibility. But one that is deeply rightwing and undemocratic.
I must have missed the wall-to-wall coverage of demands for an investigation into Nigel Farage's lies about being a racist

Or about whether he knew Nathan Gill

Or about who bought his house in Frinton

Remember 6 weeks ago when Admiral Alvin Holsey, head of the U.S. military’s southern command, abruptly decided to retire?
Makes me think at least one top-ranking officer knows what a war crime is.

Alvin Holsey just took over the US southern command late last year for a position that normally lasts three years

You know, apropos of nothing in particular, and although I haven't researched it yet, I strongly suspect that a president starting a foreign war to distract from his extensive ties with child sex traffickers is probably a high crime or misdemeanor under the Constitution's impeachment clauses.

“It sounded as if he was suggesting that songs about gassing Jews, Asians and Black people amount to no more than “banter”. That’s not schoolboy Farage talking, but the Farage of 2025.”

Yes. Same racism. Now weaponised by the wealth and power of the far right.
