Nigel Farage has spent £1m taking out adverts in the papers to distract from the Nathan Gill Russian bribe scandal.

We can't let him buy himself out of this. We need an investigation into Russian influence in our politics.

Your Food is too expensive.
Your Energy is too expensive.

The people to blame?

The billionaires who own it all.

The country wants a wealth tax on assets.

They're panicking because "won't the rich just leave" has been utterly debunked.

They've got no actual argument.

Thanks for all the kind words on my Radio 4 interview tonight on the economy!

Vital to ask about this idea of "radicalism" - radical is actually what this Labour Government are doing.

Protecting the interests of the super rich over people and nature.

If inflation comes up at the dinner table, don’t forget to draw attention to a deeper structural driver of high prices: corporate power.

Much of the food industry is dominated by a few corporate giants with the power to keep prices high because they face little competition.

Wow the right-wing papers are really on a three line whip today
The predictable crushing uniformity of the coverage of this Budget tells you an awful lot about the priorities of those papers, and also why there's actually quite a lot to praise in it bylinetimes.com/2025/11/26/t...

First Past the Post keeps promising stability and delivering chaos.

Governments are elected on a minority of the vote. They impose their agenda without listening to or negotiating with anyone.

They fail and collapse. Rinse and repeat.

There is a better way. It's time for PR.

“Around 200 people protested peacefully outside during the opening of the challenge - with scores of them silently holding up signs saying ‘I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action.’ Several sign-holders were then arrested by police.”

We must challenge these attacks on free speech and protest.

I just have this feeling that support for Reform and Nigel Farage is about to start decreasing. There are so many more questions about Nigel Farage's association with Russia and his past racism that have not been in the media or news until now. He is at last being scrutinised by our press and media.
