I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

NOTHING will prepare you for this 45-second story arc. From "I'm just doing this because I love the flag, it's totally grassroots, and I'm not part of anything political"... to who actually gave him the flags the night before.
Anyone who believes it is an innocent movement needs to see this.

Just so we’re clear, he wants us to pay more for goods we get from Brazil because he wants to save a foreign political crony on trial for corruption.

They told me if I voted for Kamala the market would crash, and then we’d probably have a recession. They were right.

Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency.

“It was Starmer who changed the rules to make more prosecutions possible. That happened and there was a huge increase in convictions.”
He also told @TheNewsAgents: "These girls are being exploited all over again. Politicians jumping on the bandwagon after years of silence is shameful".

Here is the key section of that train wreck of an interview by Robert Jenrick on #r4today.
Robinson: Did you raise it when you were Home Office minister?
Jenrick: We talked about it... I wasn't... My portfolio... But we talked about it.

Pretending Farage doesn't exist is not the answer. Neither is platforming him in a way not merited, 'fun' or disproportionate. He has had a big impact on UK politics, whether this is liked or not.

● Jaguar Land Rover adds £10bn annually to the UK economy
