Nigel Farage has spent £1m taking out adverts in the papers to distract from the Nathan Gill Russian bribe scandal.
We can't let him buy himself out of this. We need an investigation into Russian influence in our politics.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.

I don't get Starmer/Labour; if I were party leader and was presented with the Nathan Gill thing, I'd put Reform to the sword. I'd be doing Channel 4, BBC, ITV - all the outlets on rotation

We live in an age where there's a glut of information and scarcity of attention, mediated through platforms that prioritise engagement over accuracy, and emotion captures attention more readily than reason.
This chart (which applies even more to social media than it did to TV) lives in my head rent free.
Social media enveloping traditional media means everything and everyone is now competing in the entertainment market. Boring stuff like policy that affects millions of lives doesn’t stand a chance.

Call it a Surrender Plan so we at least stop some of the pretending
This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.
