‘The threat couldn’t be more urgent and imminent. Yet here we are, still putting our head in the sand.’
@carolecadwalla.bsky.social says it’s ‘peculiar’ that the case of Farage ally Nathan Gill admitting to making pro-Russia speeches for cash isn’t being followed more closely.

🧵 Finally, the Government are putting an end to their 'mum's the word' approach to the economic disasterclass that is Brexit.
The botched Brexit deal - dreamt up by Farage and delivered by the Conservatives - has delivered nothing but extra red tape, extra costs, and crushed opportunity. [1/3]

China is not a friend. On the other hand, it hasn't launched the biggest land war in Europe for 80 years with well over a million casualties so far

No Nigel Farage, this does not "finally put this nonsense to bed".
It does not explain why you trotted out the same Putin propaganda points as your bribe-taking mate Nathan Gill, for years.
Or why your sugar-daddy Arron Banks lied about his many meetings with Russian agents.
