Is there anyone out there who doesn’t think Nigel Farage is most likely a racist and a fascist?

donnie dotard gives the worst people possible political props!
he gets played like a fiddle by North Korea and Russia, while they get to look like his superiors.
Xi looks like a master of dotard manipulation.
instead of looking strong, he looks like a straw man next to anybody.

"This is the exact kind of hatred that allowed the Nazis to exterminate 6 million Jews and other ‘unacceptable’ minorities." - we often say it, but I don't think people realize how dangerously close we are
The wife of a Tory MP. No one posts something like that by mistake. Strip away the constraints of what’s societally acceptable, and you see what’s really underneath. This is the exact kind of hatred that allowed the Nazis to exterminate 6 million Jews and other ‘unacceptable’ minorities.

The whistleblower of that public interest investigation, @shahmirsanni.bsky.social was viciously smeared by figures around Gove including those in government.

He lost his job. He was outed as gay.

See this thread here for a compilation of our reporting & why it matters.

We are still seeing the press & politicians minimising the importance of this case even while a police investigation is ongoing & there are so many qs outstanding.

NEW There's no overstating how significant the Nathan Gill case is. On Friday, the close associate of Nigel Farage was jailed for over 10 years for taking bribes ultimately from a friend of Putin. It's a complex, detail-heavy story that raises questions about Farage’s claim Gill was ‘one bad apple’🧵

Well, this is pretty terrifying. The Daily Mail is buying the Telegraph.

One massive consolidated right-wing media empire controlled by off-shore interests at a critical moment in global politics.

Anyone got an answer?
This is outrageous from Keir Starmer.

‘Russian links to Reform need investigating’, he says. So why is his government still fighting case now in Grand Chamber of Strasbourg court refusing to have such an investigation into Russian interference ??

Starmer demands investigation into Reform-Russia links after party's ex-Wales leader jailed
The former leader of Reform in Wales, Nathan Gill, has been jailed for 10-and-a-half years after being paid £40,000 to make pro-Russian statements in the European Parliament.

Hypothesis: Starmer is obligated to Peter Mandelson. Why else did he give him plum Washington job?

He’s been sacked over his Epstein links. But he & Epstein had other common interests & contacts. Mandelson was friends with key Putin allies for years.

I wonder if any of those who vote reform are starting to realise who Reform are and whose interests they truly represent (their own and those of a certain Mr Putin)?

@underdog1967: I wonder if he pled guilty to avoid further scrutiny of others in his party, such as a certain Nigel Farage.❓🤔
BREAKING: Nathan Gill is sentenced to 10 & half years in prison after pleading guilty to eight charges of bribery from a Russian agent.

The "ultimate source" of the funds came from "a close friend of Vladimir Putin.

Are the media still going to pretend that Nigel Farage had no idea?
