Farage says govt only listens to big business

I have absolutely zero doubt that Reform UK's plan for small business will basically consist of "supply-side reforms" that end up deregulating employees into having lower pay and fewer rights. That's a guarantee.

Trust in news sources underlines why the right attack the BBC The above is a YouGov poll from June 2025, graphic The Guardian. YouGov now are a relatively reliable polling source. They do a lot of commercial polling as well as political polling and business d…

Why the BBC Is Facing Its Gravest Crisis in Decades

The BBC’s core problem is that, like the NHS, it models the benefits and virtues of a not-for-profit public service in a world of rapacious corporate greed and unstinting right-wing hostility to the idea of the public good www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/w...

Nigel Farage accused of 'disaster' plan that would 'drown' small businesses Nigel Farage gave a press conference to owners of small firms where he claimed Reform UK is the party of small business - catch up on updates below

Farage: "I can tell you, a decade on almost from the referendum, that in every single industry, from financial services to fisheries, the burden of regulation, the threat of the regulator is worse now than it was then."

And who's fault is that?

Probably correct and very chilling

The utter preposterousness of this interview. A media figure talking about BBC bias while describing the president as his "friend". A child could see trough it.

The BBC needs to tell the delusional orange psychopath to fuck off.
And the Government need to support our national broadcaster

The BBC is in crisis in the same way that GB News would be if you put Owen Jones on the board armed with a veto and plenty of coffee.

NHS staff who visit patients at home say St George’s flags can mean ‘no-go zones’ Black and Asian staff left feeling ‘deliberately intimidated’, according to chief executive of one NHS trust

Oh look. There really are "no go areas" in England.

And they're marked by St George's flags

I agree
And why is it the so called “patriots” on the right seem intent on destroying our most revered and “British” institutions.

The British government and the BBC need to tell trump to just fuck off
And those traitors on the right who want to get rid of the BBC (yes Farage and Badenoch) should just go and live in Dubai as that seems to be their ideal state

Nowhere in the hysterical pile-on against the BBC in the British press has anyone mentioned that BBC News now has 77 million viewers & listeners in the US and has established itself as the second most trusted news source there.

Nigel Farage says Reform UK could cut minimum wage for young people - and defends U-turn on tax pledges Mr Farage gave a wide-ranging news conference setting out Reform UK's economic plans, and defending claims of U-turning on 2024 election manifesto pledges.

Farage has been consistent for 15+ years.

Opposing decent pay and conditions for ordinary hard-working young people and expectant parents.

Meanwhile, he makes a mint hawking bullion, presenting tv shows and flying to the USA to big up his interests - instead of serving his constituents.

Nigel Farage’s supporters don’t like it when you point out that he’s talking about cutting the minimum wage for young workers.

Or that he’s pocketed over £1 MILLION from outside "work” since the election.

Because it exposes the truth about this self-styled “man of the people”.

Get in there

Is right

How could the referee give a free kick
Then check for a pen by var then give a drop ball
If it wasn’t a free kick or a pen then it was a corner

Get into these Reds
Should have had a pen there

FFS

Absolutely bloody brilliant

I hope the BBC will challenge Nigel Farage today over the economic damage caused by the Brexit he championed.

He needs to be held to account for the damage he's done instead of always being given an easy ride.

The barefaced irony of Nigel Farage - a man famed for his long boozy lunches - delivering a speech today in which he complained about UK “productivity”

Having stopped young people from living or working in EU countries, Farage now wants to cut their wages because £10 an hour is too fucking much.
Nigel Farage clearly doesn’t like young people.

Would love to know what the people of Jaywick, the most deprived part of the UK and that neighbours Clacton have to say about Farage thinking people on minimum wage get paid too much.

Nigel Farage currently railing against Parliament being full of "professional politicians".

He founded UKIP in 1993 and was first elected as an MEP in 1999, twenty-six years ago. Less than 5% of current MPs (31 to be precise) have a longer career in politics than Farage. ~AA

Never have I seen such a perfect example of Schrödinger's Migrant.

Zia Yusuf, asked whose PIP Reform would cut, talks about "foreign nationals". Less than a minute later, same "foreign nationals" are taking all the jobs and damning British youth to life on PIP.

🤡 Utter clownshow. ~AA

Who would have guessed

Farage talking to the City of London about economics

Watching Farage in the City of London now, and even I am shocked at how "Everything Is America Now" his plan for the economy is.

It's just lift and shift MAGA horseshit but with a British accent and the accompanying condescension.
