The truth: Russia’s fingerprints are all over Brexit and Reform UK.

Farage’s spin machine keeps selling “sovereignty”… while his top lieutenants were literally on Moscow’s payroll.

But only the NYT is telling the full story.

Why is 🇬🇧 press so quiet on this?

I was on Indefinite Leave To Remain before I became a citizen. Did everything legally and have since paid taxes and Nat’l Insurance. Kind of like every other person who has ILR. This man would ruin your economy to get elected. Not his, tho, he’s rich.

Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @london.gov.uk · 16d

Thousands of Londoners have indefinite leave to remain.

They have legal rights and are our friends, neighbours and colleagues, contributing hugely to our city.

Threatening to deport people living and working here legally is unacceptable.

Farage vows to scrap indefinite leave to remain, placing thousands at risk of deportation

Reform UK plans to force non-citizens to apply for visas with high salary thresholds and no access to NHS services

Anyone else in the UK deeply uncomfortable this morning with the government bedding further in with Peter Thiel, and how we’re supposed to be celebrating these US deals? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A good book 'n a brew 📚 ☕ @natterblog.bsky.social · Sep 1

I read this quite a while ago, still remember it though. A fab book, funny, but gets quite emotional too further along. A five star read for me. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Pernille Hughes @pernillehughes.bsky.social · Sep 1

I (26F) have lost my BFF. She was his (27M) fiancée. She’s asked us to complete her bucket list. I think he’s an arse, he thinks I’m a nightmare. We reckon by confining it to a task a year we can endure each other’s company.
How wrong can this go?

Ten Years is 99p for September on Amazon #Booksky
