Neil Coyle MP has written a brutal takedown letter to Nigel Farage for his breach of parliamentary protocol, because Farage visited Coyle's London constituency without notifying him. 10/10 no notes.

I'm old enough to remember when Gordon Brown was forced to apologise to a woman for calling her a bigot.
The very least we should expect is that Nigel Farage apologises for being one.

Somehow this got missed off the "Benefit Street" front pages today
70% of the additional spending from removing the two-child limit will go to families who are in work. This is targeting support for low-income working households who are being priced out of a decent standard of living despite doing everything asked of them.

Nigel Farage went to Dulwich college which charges £55,155 a year.
He then went on to be a Stock Trader like Rishi Sunak, he has never worked a day in his life.

“Did Nathan Gill ever say anything you disagree with in return for his bribes from a Kremlin stooge?”
“Did you, in your roles as his boss, friend, mentor & party leader, ever question his full-throated support for an enemy of the UK and if not, why not?”
