Not the greatest PR for the chicken shop he opened yesterday morning 😳🤢
Farage is apparently 'under the weather' today and unable to talk about the US threats to the UK and Europe over Greenland.
Which is unfortunate.

We talk about what security guarantees we can give to Ukraine - it's Ukraine currently guaranteeing the security of free Europe, when literally no one else is.
And all they ask is the necessary support to be successful in that objective.

The British press poses a genuine and profound threat to our democracy and our shared prosperity. They howl out their right wing, wealth-protecting agenda and want Farage as PM. We will all pay a very high price for their selfish greed and their utter indifference to social inequality.

Hope HMRC are investigating whether Gill evaded tax on the bribes he received.
