“Speaking outside his chateau in France, former Brexit Party and UKIP MEP Coburn answered "no" when a BBC journalist asked him whether he’d ever been paid to give a speech to promote pro-Russian campaigners”

Just FFS investigate the whole dodgy traitorous lot of them.

Holy shit! Trump has no decency or compassion.

A reporter asked if he planned to attend the funeral of Sarah Beckstrom, the National Guard member who just died.

Instead of offering condolences, he said he would “consider it” and pivoted to bragging about his margin of victory in West Virginia.

Black Friday is the name usually given to refer to the Friday after Thanksgiving, a day when retailers in the US have traditionally kicked off the holiday shopping season with heavily discounted goods.

As Black Friday has become established here in the UK, it has been exploited by scammers.

Who’s funding Reform – and why?

Reform has received almost £5m from wealthy donors since 2023, including those with links to fossil fuels, the financial services industry and tax havens, openDemocracy can reveal.

Nigel Farage has spent £1m taking out adverts in the papers to distract from the Nathan Gill Russian bribe scandal.

We can't let him buy himself out of this. We need an investigation into Russian influence in our politics.

Headline on The World at One just now:

"Sir Keir Starmer has denied putting the Labour Party before the country by ending the two-child benefit cap".

Can we please go back to reporting the actual news, not someone's partisan take on it?

Resolution Foundation analysis of the Chancellor's Budget:

Typical families gain approximately £230 from energy bill support, fuel duty & rail fare measures.

Scrapping two-child benefit limit helps over half a million families by an average of £5,000.

The Budget is progressive overall, RF finds.

The predictable crushing uniformity of the coverage of this Budget tells you an awful lot about the priorities of those papers, and also why there's actually quite a lot to praise in it bylinetimes.com/2025/11/26/t...

If telling the troops not to follow illegal orders is “sedition,” what do we call colluding with the Kremlin to manipulate the U.S. President into advancing Russian interests over America’s?
