Who will argue for them? I won’t.

I’ve argued until I’m blue in the face with ‘they’re punishing us’ Brexiters. Now I just think, ‘suffer you twats’.

I met him on a plane once. Very genuine and nice guy. Also nice to all the staff on plane.

Exactly. The BBC is building its own coffin and handing Farage the nails.

@privateeyenews.bsky.social have covered this BS extensively

EuropeanPowell @europeanpowell.bsky.social · 1d

Teesside’s freeport, initiated in 2021 under Rishi Sunak, has cost £560 million far exceeding the standard £25 million allocation (22 times the standard £25m).
90% profits go to the private sector.
This clearly shows the UK model of State aid post-Brexit is utterly corrupt.

Care to follow any if this up @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social ? If you don’t there might not be a Newsnight in a few years. In case you don’t know Farage and friends aren’t big fans.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

[Excerpt:] Tech billionaire Peter Thiel recently warned that Swedish activist Greta Thunberg & critics of tech or AI are “legionnaires of the Antichrist” in private lectures on Christianity that linked government oversight of Silicon Valley to an apocalyptic future.

Our Lips Are Sealed - Fun Boy Three.

As I promised two days ago, one of the greatest songs ever. An extraordinary view from the inside of a doomed love affair.

RIP Terry, thanks for everything. 🙏

Dear @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social . Don’t expect the left or right to defend you from defunding unless you can get back on a path to balanced journalism.

Tom Hunter @onelifestand87.bsky.social · 1d

It is embarassing not to see the BBC pulling up Reform leaders claiming that Nathan Gill was just some fan who got photos taken with Farage - he was an MEP for them & their leader in Wales while taking cash from Russia to act against the UK! Literally the very basics of your job to point this out

Rob Stewart @robstewartwriterq.bsky.social · 1d

Farage is a POS. A sham half baked snake oil salesman. If he gets to be PM it will be as bad as Trump.

I occasionally watch old episodes. Historically important TV series that kept me fed.

Tesla has the best battery systems. I’d still rather tape a few duracell bunnies together and wire it to a car.

See also killing Venezuelans in international waters. Just another crime to add.
