We're pleased that the loathsome comments carried by GB News, which equated being LGBT+ with being a paedophile, have been found in breach of the Ofcom code, following 71,000 complaints collected by @goodlawproject.bsky.social. pressgazette.co.uk/the-wire/new...

Answers on a postcard. Farage - who is currently in line to be the next Prime Minister of the UK - won't explain this mounting ties to a hostile foreign power. We need more investigation and public inquiry before its too late 12/12

And then there's this intriguing Tweet from Koloshyn's wife @NadinSassy who fled Ukraine along with him to Belarus just before Russia's full-scale invasion. It was taken in 2018 and posted in April this year. What does it mean? 11/12

Something significant people might have missed on Nathan Gill’s indictment for bribery… “conspired with Oleg Voloshyn, and with others”

Maybe sentencing in November will make this clearer

Insiders say it is "inconceivable" that Farage wouldn't have known of Gill's foreign trips because he "micromanaged" them. So Byline Times have asked him about this and what he knows of Voloshyn, Medvedchuk, and Manafort. We haven't heard back 10/12

The Cambridge Analytica element is key. Senate reports conclude its targeting for swing states made it through to Russian military intelligence in 2016. The GRU were the Petersburg Troll Factory's main backers
