The BBC is not just any other institution. It's a core part of this country's identity. It's ours to criticise, ours to get cross with, ours to love and ours to the end.

By attacking it Trump may actually be doing us all a favour as we are obliged to remember that.

Boris Johnson was paid £2,291 an hour by the offshore Farageist owners of the Telegraph. He delivered the Brexit they craved. Who had he been working for, them or the British people? Big money payments to parties and politicians must be made illegal. Politics must not be a billionaires' plaything.

A Thailand based billionaire is giving the Farageists £9m.

Big money political donations subvert democracy and are a gateway to corruption.

They must be made serious criminal offences. The super-rich must not be allowed to buy political power.

Farage keeps on switching his story about whether he engaged in racist abuse as a teenager.

What is little known is that in 1999, just before became a public figure he was using vile racist language, as can be seen in the Guardian screenshots below.

Please repost, more people need to know this.
