The blunt truth is that if Karen Pierce had been a man, then she would still be US ambassador now and Keir Starmer's government would not be on the brink of death.

Not only was Manafort Trump’s former campaign chair, jailed for financial crimes after investigations into his Kremlin-aligned influence operations – to lobby the president on Bitcoin policy, but he also acted for the Russian backed candidate in the Ukraine Presidentials prior to Zelensky
"It also links Farage to one of the most controversial figures in modern American politics"
If we want to start highlighting dodgy links and shady practices, lets start with Farage and Manafort. Our MSM stays silent as usual when Farage is involved.

Nigel Farage tells GB News that Keir Starmer's decision to appoint Peter Mandelson as US ambassador shows his judgement is "seriously wrong" and he should stand down as Prime Minister.

Here's what Farage said when Mandelson was appointed

I am a Ukrainian Nobel Peace Prize Laureate. I have a question.

Why has Trump's year of negotiations been the deadliest for civilians in Ukraine since the full-scale invasion? The number of deaths and injuries has increased by 31 percent compared to the previous year.

It is worth recalling that the position of U.K. Ambassador to the US was not vacant at the time the Prime Minister chose to appoint Peter Mandelson to the role. A highly competent and respected woman was replaced.

This ought to have been the main UK news story from the DoJ’s latest Jeffrey Epstein data dump.

Peter Mandelson told Epstein he was “trying hard” to change government policy on bankers’ bonuses at his request, months after Epstein paid thousands of pounds to the then Business Secretary’s husband.

Reminder that Russia’s war on Ukraine is not some locked conflict, with soldiers taking occasional pot-shots across wire-topped fences.

It’s Russia systematically murdering Ukrainians every day.

Questions for Farage:

How many people applied?

How were those applications processed and by whom?

How many interviews were held?

If applications closed on Sunday then how was it possible to interview them and select Goodwin in such a short space of time?

Did Goodwin pay his £125?

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem.

I don't know how many times we will be told by the legacy media that Trump is moderating or backing off only to then see he is worse than ever. He is an authoritarian. He enjoys the cruelty. And the first thing he had Pam Bondi do after the shooting was to try to leverage it to get the voter files.
