A UK presenter shouldn’t crow about an audience’s ignorance of Nathan Gill who took bribes from Kremlin agents & was a close ally of Farage . It shows they have failed to do their job . What next , telling us that Watergate was one of the lowest points in investigative journalism 🥺 ?

The Nathan Gill scandal should be huge news so why has the British media been mainly silent about it? (I think we know 🤔)
Here's Fiona Bruce shutting down any mention & acting like the audience aren't interested.

Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia.

Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?

You mean Bezos is making a fortune from people who hate all he stands for.

I had my Covid booster in the summer and can have my flu jab next week. Which I shall, because I’ve got family coming from England for half-term

Used to take a French exchange to St Etienne by train. Getting them and their luggage across Paris must have put years on me.

Totally amoral and self-centred narcissist. We ought to have psychological vetting before candidates put themselves up for positions of power.

My car is one of the less-known models to be in the guilty group.
When the scandal broke, my garage offered to correct the fault, free.
But it’s a Renault and I live in France

The UK Media is very interesting, Angela Rayner who tried to avoid tax was on the TV and in Media every day of the week.

But Reform UK's ex-Welsh Leader pleads guilty to Bribery Charges.

And we need to forget about it instantly.

Can't be having bad PR for Reform.
