this is on brand for the BBC who has never accepted that Britain was so weak institutionally that Putin bought the #Brexit vote

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.

Reform doesn’t have many policies. But it has one :

to cut public spending by £274bn.

That’s more than five times Liz Truss's unfunded tax measures.

So rather than ask @eddavey.libdems.org.uk heading a 72 MP Party what he thinks about Blair governing Gaza

Sky asks Farage who has a total of (checks notes as the number keeps changing).. currently just 5 MPs what he thinks

Yet another example of not MSM promoting the toxic turd over others❗️😡
Nigel Farage says Tony Blair 'not my choice' to help govern Gaza but understands Donald Trump's logic
Donald Trump has said former Labour prime minister Sir Tony Blair would head up a "Board of Peace" in Gaza.

“The £1m man: why did #LiarJohnson take his donor to Ukraine?” Yet another oligarch buying our democracy. Harbourne bankrolled #Brexit & gave £10m to the fascist tapeworm’s company - Reform.
When they run out of things to buy these people buy democracies

I sometimes worry I exaggerate the collective madness of our media but the people who cheered Brexit, Boris Johnson & Liz Truss's mini-budget are now applauding Kemi Badenoch's speech. 'Parallell universe' doesn't come close. I suppose her not falling over is a win of sorts for them at the moment.

I really don't know what to do about a situation where a plurality of the group that (rightly!) takes up most government spending thinks that it is unrepresented in politics.

Law versus politics

Both the UK and the US face a choice between unchecked executive power or a balanced constitution

By me at @prospectmagazine.co.uk

www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/law/th...
This is the crucial choice facing those both in the United Kingdom and the United States. What is to be the relationship between those with political power and the force of law?  

In the United States it would seem that, at a federal level, both Congress and the Supreme Court are content to nod along with excessive use of presidential power. It is only the individual states themselves and the lower courts that are seeking to hold that executive power to account. 

While in the United Kingdom there are louder political demands for the government to be free from the constraints placed by international law and supposedly activist judges. The implicit call is that ministers and officials should be able to do as they like to the rest of us without any possibility of a court ever saying otherwise. 

What will happen in this contest between executive power and legal restraint cannot be predicted. The happy assumption of the Whig interpretation of history may not be well-grounded. From a liberal perspective things are not only getting worse, but could get a lot worse. The illiberals know what they are doing and they are doing it well.

Nigel Farage - "I've never met the Russian ambassador."

I remember the furore about 'spin' during the Blair years. Brexit politicians replaced spin with blatant lies, and they've carried on ever since. It's another element of fascism that has entered our politics.

Scrapping stamp duty will cost £11.6bn a year. But it won't house a single one of Britain's 240,000 homeless.

UAE has no democratically elected institutions, no free speech and an appalling human rights record.

Its economy functions on completely different metrics to the ours & ranks well below us for GDP

No serious person would ever think that we should emulate it.

But here's Tice calling us decadent
