The CDC literally fired its own disease experts by accident—including measles and Ebola teams—and is now scrambling to rehire them. This regime runs the government like it’s pressing CTRL+Z on humanity.

These 2 speeches, which, as Nick points out, on the same day, precede what Gill has pled guilty to by 4 years, are more damning for Farage as they also precede Brexit.

All European secret services would have been alarmed by this & would/should have been investigating.

I'm sure BBC investigative documentary strand Panorama is even now working on an incisive exposé of Reform's financial links to Russia and it's just that they haven't announced it publicly yet

By WB Yeats

“Things fall apart; the center cannot hold; / Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, / The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere / The ceremony of innocence is drowned; / The best lack all conviction, while the worst / Are full of passionate intensity."

Robert Jenrick, the Conservatives' Farage; a racist who ordered cartoon murals to be painted over at a children’s asylum centre - because they looked ‘too welcoming’ & helped a billionaire donor avoid paying £40m in property tax. Indecent, racist, corrupt - definitely a potential Tory leader.
