NEW There's no overstating how significant the Nathan Gill case is. On Friday, the close associate of Nigel Farage was jailed for over 10 years for taking bribes ultimately from a friend of Putin.

@raskin.house.gov has certainly got Farage’s number. A truly incisive and well-informed deconstruction of his malevolent chicanery.
