Week by week - Laura Kuenssberg is interviewing the party leaders.

When I agreed to come on the show, I was told Nigel Farage was also doing it.

He's now pulled out - and they've sent the deputy instead.

The same Nigel Farage who's refusing to debate me.

A pattern emerging...

The people writing this stuff for the Telegraph are truly unhinged 🤯
These so-called "patriotic" 🇬🇧newspapers who brought you Brexit were never really patriotic at all.

They are driven by a disdain for Britain's European neighbours, and a fawning obsession with America.

They do not really want 🇬🇧 to be sovereign. They're content being a 🇺🇸vassal.

Particularly now this ‘pro-British’ President is attempting to blackmail the UK et al over Greenland 🤨
This is pretty much the only post anyone should need to understand that Farage is a traitor, a conman and a populist simpleton who must *never* be given power.

More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland.

They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

Donald Trump threatens to impose tariffs on countries that do not “go along” with his plan to annex Greenland.

His envoy says a deal to take over the island “should and will be made”

He wants to sanction NATO countries.

When will Europe recognize that US is no longer an ally?

Next time Reform UK or Nigel Farage talks about 14 years of Conservative government, remind them:

Danny Kruger (Conservative Minister)
Robert Jenrick (Conservative Minister)
Malcolm Offord (Conservative Minister)
Nadhim Zahawi (Conservative Minister)
Andrea Jenkyns (Conservative Minister)

Reminder that in the UK an incoming radical, populist government would have immediate access to immense, unchecked executive power.

And the current government is doing nothing to protect us from that.
NEW

The UK constitution is even more vulnerable than the US constitution

In the face of an illiberal radical assault, what has happened politically in America could easily happen in the UK

Machado presenting Trump with her Nobel has to be the stupidest thing a peace laureate can do. She literally is supporting a violent dictator and helping him whitewash his crimes. Completely against everything the Prize stands for. The Nobel committee should rescind her prize.

As there is always a tweet, it’s worth keeping this receipt too…
Of course, as Reform morphs into the failed, corrupt, nasty and useless Tory party, Farage won’t need to do a deal at all.
Voters will look from Tory to Reform and Reform to Tory; but it will be impossible to say which is which.

Germany has seen this movie before.

They played the bad guys then.

They want a different role in the sequel.

📌At his core, Donald Trump is nothing but a weak, fragile baby who was never loved, and has spent his entire life making that everybody else's problem.
Taking a secondhand Nobel Peace Prize and calling it his own, has to be the single-most pathetic thing I have ever seen.

The Reform pitch is increasingly “the last government was terrible, so we’ve hired everyone who was in it”.

Trump’s plan has been clear: terrorize Americans, attack them, shoot them in the face, and create as much chaos as possible — whatever it takes. Then use the chaos he manufactured to invoke the Insurrection Act.

Thousands left without water in the middle of winter in the UK. And those same people are now facing a massive bill hike.

Privatised water is a scam.

I've written to the Prime Minister asking why he won't end this rip off and bring failing South East Water into public hands.

This should alarm everyone. The FBI searched a journalist’s home and seized her work devices, despite no criminal charges. This is a direct threat to press freedom.
