β€˜Nine-jobs Nigel’ Farage denies not declaring extra earni... Roles outside Parliament make Reform leader the highest-earning MP, but register of interests has not been updated since end of May

Nine jobs Nigel Farage hasn't updated his Β­register of interests in months.

Potentially hundreds of thousands of ££££ from his many "outside interests" remain undeclared

Nigel Farage, the "anti-establishment" guy who gets away with anything as he's protected by the British establishment.

Reform, with 0.7% of all MPs, featured in 25% of BBC's recent 10pm news bulletins Astonishingly, a party with 18 times as many MPs as Reform has received one-third less coverage on BBC News at 10.

British media pumps out daily propaganda pieces for Farage, fails to offer *any scrutiny* and basically legitimises rampant racism, then puts on its β€˜innocent face’ and clutches its pearls at the rise of the far right…
What a grim betrayal of our democracy.

I've never understood
what is patriotic about
tax evasion by millionaires

"Farage says he stands for the working class β€” yet dodges scrutiny over his own tax dealings while criticising others for theirs."

Do you have a source for this?

Kristallnacht was in 1938. The Reichtag was apparently (this is disputed) set alight in 1933 by a Dutch communist, hence the parallel with Donald's Trump radical keft killing Kirk.

So, Charlie Kirk was killed by a gun-obsessed guy raised by Republican parents? How does that fit the narrative?

Definitely radical left.

And, this NYT article dates back to 2019! There is no radical left in the USA, but definitely a radical right.

We can have a long debate about whether the Democratic Party is centre left or centre right. However, look how much farther to the right the Republican Party is compared to right-wing European parties. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

We know that he is not part of the "radical left', as there is no left (radical or not) in the USA.

Not just that, but there is supposed to be a radical left in the USA.

Can you imagine that happening to Nigel Farage in the UK? Farage claims to be an anti-establishment guy, but has a good part of the British establishment protecting him.

Will the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the resulting call for retribution be America's equivalent of the 1933 Reichtag's fire in Germany?

The rest of the world watches this soap opera of a country in shock and horror... I just can't understand how a country that was supposed to be the leader of the free world can crash and burn so quickly when one man is able to take to complete control.

Who or what is the "radical left" in the United States? And, in what way are they radical? Asking a friend.
