It’s clear to anyone paying attention that Farage won’t investigate the Russian infiltration of Reform.
The Prime Minister must step up and launch a national investigation.

The Russian involvement in Brexit needs to be fully exposed to the public.
An act of treason, pushed by Farage & many far right Tories, enabled by Cameron, Johnson & Gove.

Putin's biggest strategic objectives were to break up the EU and to disconnect the USA from Europe's defence. Brexit and Trump delivered him both objectives. European leaders now need to fight back. Putin has overreached himself and if Trump's big push on his side fails, Putin's regime will fall.

Robbie Gibb was appointed to the BBC Board by Boris Johnson, was an editorial advisor for GB News, and worked as Theresa May's Director of Comms.
He is not impartial or neutral. The government should remove him from the Board immediately to protect the BBC's independence.

If we're talking about bias, why do BBC politics programmes, from Politics Live to the Laura Kuennsberg Show, still always begin with a look at the newspaper front pages, which are overwhelmingly biased in one direction. Helps frame the entire news agenda and debate in their favour

So long as Labour hold firm on Brexit, all their bleating about having been dealt an atrocious hand by the Tories is so much hot air.
Support for "Make Brexit Works" holes that argument below the waterline.
It is ludicrous to be contemplating tax rises, but not trying to undo Brexit.

What an incredible act of self harm Brexit was.
New Brexit economic impact report. It’s even worse than was predicted
A 6-8% reduction in GDP
Investment reduced 12-18%
Employment and productivity down 3-4%

Headline from a serious and long working paper on the economic impact of Brexit. Possible that this has been feeding into OBR and HMT discussions?
