Michelle Mone must now repay the Β£122m she stole from the NHS. But she remains an unelected lawmaker for life.

β€œI would gently point out to Nigel Farage that before we left the EU we had a returns agreement with every country in the EU. He told the country it would make no difference if we left. He was wrong about that. These are Farage boats in many senses coming across the channel” πŸ‘

An image with a dark blue background features a single glowing orange jellyfish in the centre. Around it is simple, dashed-line drawings of various marine animals, including a shark, different types of fish, and small schools of fish. In the top half of the image, white text reads, β€œAbout 91% of ocean species are yet to be discovered.” Below, more white text says, β€œ60 countries have just made history to protect their future.” In the bottom right corner, there is a logo of the European Commission.

The tide has turned for our oceans.

60 countries have ratified the High Seas Treaty, entering into force in early 2026.

So, Sunday Times runs with latest poll showing Farage winning if there was an election now. But makes NO mention of Reform’s collusion with Russia. And this is how democracy gets beaten to death in the dark. Voters are not being told the truth. Reform is given the stage but is NEVER held to account.

Sewage was dumped into the Mersey 1,900 times in 2024. Since leaving the EU, the UK has slipped on water and air standards while Europe pushes ahead with tougher protections.

The Farage β€˜mirage’: how the media is warping our politics It is time that the media fulfils its role to critically examine politician’s statements and call them out when they stray from the truth

On the blatant double standards the media - BBC included - deploys while showcasing Nigel Farage. He is constantly given a free pass not granted to other politicians. bylines.scot/news/the-far...

Via The Independent: Donald Trump’s false claim that London β€˜wants to go to Sharia law’ has been described as β€˜appalling and bigoted’ by Mayor Sadiq Khan.

The Muslim Council of Britain responded: β€œWe pray for Mr Trump's health and wellbeing as his hallucinations seem to be getting worse by the day”

For 56 minutes Sky News and BBC News interrupted everything else and carried a Reform UK feed live, uninterrupted, unchallenged. The stream spluttered, froze, pixelated - dozens of times - still they stuck with it. FOR ONE HOUR.

This is an editorial choice. No other party gets this coverage. ~AA

Unless you are in Gaza, you can never know the horror. But just imagine…

No air raid sirens.
No air raid shelters.
No places of safety.
Hardly any food or clean water.
If you survive, you can never think β€œI’ve survived. I’m going to be OK.”

People live from day to day like zombies in a hellscape.
