Farage has been using intermediaries for years — remember Darren Grimes?

This guy is just the latest wanker-stool-pigeon in a long, long list.

He’ll be managing Durham Council tomorrow…

🇨🇦 PM Mark Carney put it well in his book Values: society has confused “value” (market price) with “values” (social, moral and ethical principles).

The EU is a values-based system: rule of law, democracy and human rights, checks on power...

Align wisely, UK.

Opposition to European cooperation has only ever favoured Putin, and latterly, Trump.

Farage and the tabloids oppose it because they thrive in chaos — civilised, rules-based society is their #1 enemy.

They want war.

The majority of staff, who will not be able to use the free parking facilities available to their senior colleagues, will still be expected to pay to park every day

On the anniversary of the UK leaving the EU, it is worth hearing once again the many benefits of Brexit, clearly articulated by those who voted for it.

Judging by tomorrow’s Express, it has become beyond pathetic.

Who remembers when Reform UK candidate in Gorton & Denton, Matt Goodwin tried to defend Sarah Pochin saying "It makes me mad seeing adverts full of black and Asian people"?

Matt Goodwin used to write academic papers about countering the Far Right.

Now he has his own show on GB News.

This is who Matt is. So he has zero room to falsely accuse people on television of being disingenuous.

Hi Gorton & Denton, if you have anxiety, know that the Reform UK candidate, Matt Goodwin, thinks you have a mild mental health issue.

He doesn’t think you should be supported.

Conservatism is a toxic political cult with roots in the Confederacy that has turned the US into a dictatorship ruled by pedophiles who are depriving our right to free speech, taking bribes, committing treason, and perpetrating crimes against humanity.

What's happen to small boat crossing in January?

The data shows we've seen the lowest number of crossing for a January since 2021.

Plus, we've seen a lot of 'firsts' across the month where plans to tackle dangerous crossing announced last year have come into force, or been used for the first time.

Now that January 2026 is over, we have the first full month of data from this year on small boat crossings in the English Channel.

Our important work at Kent Council to spend £600k on a car park to provide free parking for Reform councillors while staff have to pay, is all part of our 'We don't give a shit about anyone but ourselves' policy.

Here's Matt Goodwin with Steve Bannon.

Bannon and Epstein exchanged thousands of texts between 2018 and 2019, proving Bannon saw nothing wrong with repeatedly linking up with a convicted pedophile.

Farage thanked Bannon for his help in winning the Brexit referendum.

Farage is a charlatan who has filled his Reform company with a bunch of like-minded, mendacious con-men, many Tory failures who already spent years in Government imposing austerity on ordinary folk & wrecking public services.
