It's all bad but hadn't seen the bit where Farage says:
"The European Union is the prototype for the New World Order."
That is a seriously, deeply problematic term that taps into Illuminati and antisemitic conspiracy theories.
How the fuck did this man direct the course of our politics?

Pleased to discover that slightly misnaming the national chess championship you won as a school child is a much more serious offence than repeatedly racially abusing your fellow pupils and telling them they should go to the gas chamber

Is Farage still facing scrutiny over his partner’s £885k Frinton home.
Is it aggressive tax avoidance? Has he misled voters? Where’s the transparency? What’s happening?
Just asking questions.

Let silly hacks go and work on their next bit of Westminster gossip. THIS is the main news from that conference. The clearest indication yet, right from the top.
👏🏽"We must all now confront the reality that the Brexit deal significantly hurt our economy. We have to keep reducing frictions. We have to keep moving towards a closer relationship with the EU. And we have to be grown up about it. To accept that it will require trade-offs."👏🏽

"There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad."
This story is starting to make me feel I’m going slightly mad - maybe RR overdid the gloom, but the tax rises are paying for a) the welfare U-turns b) the £10bn-plus increase in headroom c) scrapping the two child limit d) bits of other spending eg higher local gov costs 🤷🏻♀️

Yes, the NHS budget will always increase, just as the price of a loaf of bread I buy will always increase.
The key question is: Has the NHS budget kept up with rising demand due to increasing population, people living longer, people being sick for longer, etc.
The answer is a categorical: no.

One thing they keep banging on about is Historically High tax income.
Surely inflation means it should be historically high, like most people's wages, utility bills etc.
The NHS budget is historically high but everyone knows it has had several real term cuts.

🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.
A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it:
A 6–8% hit to GDP
That's £180bn-£240bn a year
It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything.
