My new piece about Nathan Gill and Nigel Farage for @thenerve_news in which we ask:

Why, even now, is no-one asking questions?

Letter sent to Nigel Farage by Patrick Sargent
Former Reform UK regional Chairman

He is surprised to find out that the limited company he joined:

• Has no democratic structure
• Is not a meritocracy
• Is a Farage vanity project
• Has no policies
• Is not a professional outfit

Plus they will NEVER talk about Farage’s role in this for failed Brexit or how he financially benefitted

BBC News explain that because of Brexit, Brits will be photographed and have their fingerprints taken when going into the EU, as the UK now is a third country

BBC News forget to explain that the UK helped create these rules when we were part of the EU because we wanted stronger border control

Dear Laura Kuenssberg

Don't you think it time you gave PROPER coverage to the issue of Reform, Nigel Farage, Nathan Gill & Russian bribery?

You seem reluctant. Just as Fiona Bruce seemed desperate to shut it down when Zack Polanski brought it up on #BBCQT

WHY?

This would be a headline leading scandal for a Labour or Tory politician, rightly⬇️

The BBC, esp #BBCLauraK & #BBCQT, give #ReformUK the platform of a major party but NOT the scrutiny. Why?

Will Laura K even raise it with Nadine Dorries?

Farage has given up the pretence that he barely knew Nathan Gill. He can't do otherwise, given the flood of evidence to the contrary.

Here is Gill saying he's just come from having lunch with Farage on the day that Farage resigned as UKIP leader 4 July 2016?

Reform, Farage and Tice: it’s all about the money

The leaders of the hard right party are raking it in. Do any of them have any time left over for the boring stuff in life – like representing their constituents?

Promise to reduce workers's rights
Inflict spending cuts - hit the poor, old, sick, disabled

Vast profits exported, Britons stare at sewage in rivers.

If the government wants economic growth it must bring essential industries into public ownership

Successive governments clobber households and small businesses by hiking interest rates to manage inflation, but don’t inconvenience corporations.

The next time this individual appears on the media can someone ask her to justify why she wants to splash £74k on new offices . There is an ongoing cost of living crisis happening and yet Jenkyns thinks it is appropriate to waste money on new offices. So much for Reform promising to save money !

And we should know how much money he got from Russia Today TV.

Can he release that info?

Farage says he’s stunned that ex Reform Wales leader Nathan Gill took bribes from Russia.. I bet he is

He no doubt thought he was the only one Putin was wedging up, his ego wouldn’t entertain anyone else getting a piece of the action❗️

Here's Farage & Gill in European Parliament around the time of the first known Russian bribe.

Farage calls the EU 'arrogant & vulgar' then compares them to the Soviet Union while confirmed Russian asset Gill laughs behind him. Unreal.

Anabel Denham was is consistent poster girl for the 1%. Keen supporter of Liz Truss/ Tufton street/ Heritage foundation. Never knowingly empathetic or solution focussed.

Labour need to shouting this from the roof tops.

They need to be challenging Farage over his multiple jobs.
They need to be challenging Reform over their tex exile donor base.
They need to be challenging Reform policies at every opportunity.
