I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear.

This man sows hate, lies and division.

He is a grifter and a conman.

He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.

Repost if you agree

P.s. multiculturalism is great.

Growth has disappeared – so what is Rachel Reeves going to do now ? youtu.be/cmgqyeR3OZs?... The latest figures for the UK’s GDP suggest that growth is flatlining, and the problem with that for Labour is that everything they said they’d do was based on growth happening. So, what now, Rachel Reeves?

To clarify

These are rich people protesting at being told to pay a tax that already exists for all the other rich people, but at half the rate that all the other rich people pay and they want support from the 95% who would never ever be rich enough to pay the same tax.

Have I got that right....?

NHS funding per patient is now more than 6% lower than in 2010.

The NHS does not have 'more money than ever' as is constantly repeated.

This is a lie, RP so everyone knows.

I talk about this endlessly in my book....how our current electoral system is NOT fit for purpose

@petergeoghegan.bsky.social explains more re donations

Jeez Labour...tighten up these horrors....
NEW 🚨 Britain's electoral laws are broken - but successive governments have done nothing

Musk's proposed $100million donation to Nigel Farage shows we are on the cusp of a real crisis for British democracy

But it can be fixed. Here's how, by me

Musk’s $100m to Farage will break our democracy
Keir Starmer needs to fix Britain’s broken electoral laws now - if he doesn’t, we will all suffer the consequences

The wealthy think they’re different youtu.be/LS_a5orP4Rg?... The wealthy think they’re different to us. The recent farmers’ protests proved that. Despite their wealth, farmers claimed impoverishment and demanded subsidies from the state. It’s time we stopped putting up with their bleating.
