For 56 minutes Sky News and BBC News interrupted everything else and carried a Reform UK feed live, uninterrupted, unchallenged. The stream spluttered, froze, pixelated - dozens of times - still they stuck with it. FOR ONE HOUR.

This is an editorial choice. No other party gets this coverage. ~AA

Well done Judge Nichols!

But can one brave judge prevail for long against a lawless despot, and an uncontrollable billionaire beyond the reach of reason or decency?

He can only try. And for that, thank you Sir!

Judge slams Ofwat and govt for not attending Thames Water hearing.

No one representing people/customers as lenders carve the company.

Thames has £19bn debt, wants to borrow another £3bn, only £1bn will be useable, customer bills will rocket, won't resolve the crisis.

Nationalise.

Farage truly is Trump writ small. Like his master, he lies. Easily. Naturally. Automatically.

To both of them, lying comes as easy as breathing. It's part of them. It's what they do...

We must NEVER allow this to feel normal, or it will become normal. They should be called out, every time! 👍
If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it

We cannot allow them to rewrite history.

If you agree share this FACT CHECK widely
