I'm really pleased that the accusations against Farage are quite rightly not going away. He appears very, very rattled and deservedly so.
This is very long overdue.

The Russian Federation has The Ludvig Nobel Prize - the Concordski to the original premium product.
I'll give you a shiny rosette if you can tell me who one of the first winners was.

True. We all know this.
Reminder:
Most Kremlin-Musk-CCP trolls know exactly what Moscow really wants:
All of Ukraine on the way to restore the control the Kremlin had in Europe in 1989.

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.

It’s essential to seal raw MDF edges when painting doors/cabinet doors/media units because failing to do so will result in the finish feeling like sandpaper. The paint will continue to be sucked into the raw edge. Here I’m using Prestonette filler. It spreads like butter & sands down with ease.

45 years ago I made a pitch for the Director-General job. Didn’t get it – mind you, I was only 13. But I did get a reply from Ian Trethowan, who was DG at the time. All these years later I’m proud to work for the BBC.

“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?”
You can have those for nothing, lads.
