Israel is expelling 37 aid groups – a likely death sentence for 100,000s of Palestinians. But the Times speaks only of 'new rules' in Gaza, and 'suspensions' for those who 'resist registration'.

Chatted to my great uncle yesterday – a northern, working-class guy, not that political. I told him my job involved exposing Farage.

His first question was: “who funds him?”

Investigations into Farage’s donors can have a major impact on Reform’s support – as this research has already shown 👇

Hunting is completely impractical, causes immense damage to farming, benefits nobody and is very cruel indeed.

No wonder Britain's leading Brexiter backs it.
It’s the Boxing Day Hunt, Nigel Farage thinks packs of hounds should chase a fox and tear it to shreds.

So Starmer thinks that more pandering to the right by restricting human rights laws will … er… curb the right? What fresh madness is this???

Fond as I am of Norfolk, I can’t help thinking that for those of us around in the 70s and early 80s this branding hits a particularly bum note 😳

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.

🔴 Nigel Farage’s Reform is more reliant on super-rich backers than any major party in modern British political history

75% of *all* Reform donations *ever* have come from just three rich men

Is this what democracy looks like?

Our government tried to let racist, genocidal Israeli football hooligans rampage on Birmingham's streets.

They smeared those opposed to this as being driven by hatred of Jewish people.

Now listen to what the West Midlands Chief Constable told MPs.

What a scandal.

Should Gibb be sacked? yes, obviously. He's an abomination of basic journalistic standards. His GB News channel spreads conspiracy theory & disinformation. His Jewish Chronicle newspaper spreads invented stories. He is plainly trying to undermine the BBC so it's as bad as everything else he touches.

The senseless & wreckless Supreme Court judgement followed by EHRC's opportunistic segregation 'guidance' gave cover to some of the most horrendous transphobes who took their chance to oppress a marginalised group. They will never be forgotten. An injury to one, is an injury to all.
