Centrist. London. Pro EU. Rejoiner. Democracy is under threat, not only from the dictators & authoritarians that occupy the planet, but also from within existing democracies. Private power + wealth is being used to overturn & threaten our democracy.

Absolutely superb effort by all those who voted for this, many of whom are now dead.

There is no penalty for lying in politics. The news media will not call those out, whom they support, (Reform/Tories). A large proportion of the voting public is morally corrupt & don't see any problem. A reflection on their own low standards. Trump/MAGA are the perfect example of its corruption.

Makes you wonder how he ran up such massive debts. Now, living in Dubai, along with Tice and Oakeshott.

True. It's like a disease, with no antidote found, yet.

No time soon, with the new BBC News boss.

The one's that speak perfect Latvian, are the FSB and GRU agents.

Richard Tice - "Please welcome to the stage... Nathan Gill"

So much for Tice's claim to have never met Nathan Gill.

I thought it was about 'bone spurs', that con that kept him out of the military.?

The thing I'm "stunned" about is why this isn't the biggest domestic news item on every flipping platform

'Stunned?' Farage's Admission He Knew Nathan Gill but Not His Kremlin Associates Does Not Stand Up to Scrutiny

Insiders have told Byline Times it is 'inconceivable' the Reform Leader did not know about his close aide's pro Russian statements

It's just more evidence of the continuing promotion of Farage/Reform in the news media, especially where they can attack Labour, in any context.

No surprise the BBC is digging up a non-story to smear Blair. The point is, so what?. But, BBC News is run by the guy who use to be the boss of GB News.

A tough time indeed. Time is a great healer though and you've got company too. 😸🙂

The ex head of GB News, who is now Director of BBC news, has delivered what such a career a move would do. Promotion of Reform & never ending anti Starmer/Labour Govt., tailored 'news'. This one slipped through, as the editors seeing what seemed a good smear, couldn't resist it, without checking.

They have to park that, '747 gift' to Trump.

MrMirth @mrmirth.bsky.social · 15h

How strange. You would think, it would be against those who do not support the war.

Bolton, a man of the ideological right for many decades. Trump was the end result and a far-right GOP/MAGA. Now, it has come for him. - 'All revolutions devour their own children', Ernst Rohm. - It is the turn of Bolton.
