Disgraceful...
I’m a past winner of the Orwell Prize & won partly because I exposed Vote Leave’s unlawful activities.

Michael Gove was its co-convener & refused to answer a single q. He’s now a judge of the prize & our world is truly one that Orwell would recognise

@lukepollard.bsky.social : I think this has been done already.

Check out the Intelligence and Security Committee: Russia Report and publish it.

Thank you
This whole grubby saga with Nathan Gill shows how Russia-friendly Reform are, and that they should be nowhere near our national security.

That famous left-wing bias again
I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Note to media
Note to police

A "high-speed e-bike" IS NOT AN EBIKE!

Thank you.

This police chief is begging kids not to ride e-bikes after 2 scary N.J. crashes
A 15-year-old just broke both his wrists in an e-bike crash, cops said. His helmet was found 75 feet away.
