Toby Young, self-appointed king of free speech, is speaking in Hungary tomorrow about UK “censorship”.
He’ll be addressing a group funded by Viktor Orbán’s autocratic regime, which has seized control of the country’s media, judiciary, and routinely harasses its critics
1/ Farage, Gill and Arron Banks have parroted the Russian lie that NATO and EU expansion provoked Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The Russian government and its state TV tell the real genocidal imperialist truth about Russia's ambitions.
In case you missed it ...
Brexiters swore we'd stay in the Single Market and that the EU would let us cherry pick whatever we wanted. If people had known they were lying before the ref, Brexit would have been rejected.

A post by Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk. It reads: Together with the leaders of Europe, Canada and Japan, we have declared our readiness to work on the 28-point plan despite some reservations. However, before we start our work, it would be good to know for sure who is the author of the plan and where was it created.
We now have leaders of allied nations unable to trust a word the US tells them.
We are witnessing one of the greatest diplomatic and foreign relations blunders of our lifetimes.
Report from Philly circa September: "The Proud Boys - a white supremacist group with a stupid name - planned a rally a block from my house today. The 'belly of the beast' rally. Because apparently that's where I live - the belly of the antifa beast. Whatever the fuck that means. 2 hours before it was supposed to start, the park starts filling up with my neighbors. A drum line shows up. A brass band plays. The anarchists are giving away vegetables and nachos and some artists are selling jewelry. Black leaders give speeches. We chant Breonna Taylor's name. And all the other names. No right-wing rally ever coalesces. There was never room for a critical mass to congregate. A lost-looking man or two walks to the park, doesn't see their people, turns around. A right-wing vlogger trying to debate people is surrounded and walked to the edge of the park. Someone spotted with a handgun is chased through the park, to their car, by over 100 people. The ice cream truck music plays the whole time. The usual guys sets their chess tables and start playing, the crowd of neighbors start to break up. Nazis, we will replace you. We will displace you. We will louder and more numerous. We anti-fascists are full of music and love and nachos. We will always replace you."
There are more of us than there are of them.
We protect us.

Boris Johnson took 4 days off as NHS warned Covid could ‘overwhelm’ system
Thousands died.
Spent time walking his dog, riding motorcycle, hosting lunches/dinners.
He once said Covid was ‘nature’s way of dealing with old people’, ‘we should let the old people get it’.
Will he be held to account,?
Remember: if a legal opinion is sound then it matters not how “great” or “distinguished“ the lawyer is.
And if it is not sound, it is not saved by the lawyer being “great” or “distinguished“.
The political and media establishment will try to bury the issue of Farage's ties to Russia, so please repost and share this petition calling for a public inquiry into Russian influence on UK politics & democracy as widely and as often as possible. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

Bloody autocarrot!
Always remember ... "A" customs union is not "The" Customs Union. It doesn't bring the benefits of the Single Market – and it intentionally avoids the issue of Freedom of Movement. We need the Single Market and we need Freedom of Movement. The public is far further than the politicians on this.

The Covid Inquiry is a damning indictment of Boris Johnson's arrogance, dishonesty and incompetence. Britain is a worse place because of his terrible leadership.

⚡️ 'Rewarding Russian butchery' — US lawmakers rail against Trump's Ukraine peace deal.
"Rewarding Russian butchery would be disastrous to America’s interests," U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell said.
Ha! *Surprised face*
Mary Tiles Texas joined from Russia in September 2022, a few months after its full invasion of Ukraine.
Watch how the Russian trolls now find out ways to set up new “USA“ (UK/French/ Irish etc etc) accounts from place appropriate locations
If you want to understand Ukraine and Ukrainians, remember this:
During the liberation of Kherson, one man said, “Now, we have no electricity in the city, no water, no central supply heating, no mobile connection, no internet connection, but we have no RUSSIANS” 1/2
And the £3m UKIP money via Aaron Banks that was untraceable after passing through Banks chain of office shore accounts and foreign domiciled companies. Companies like his Gibraltar insurance company that hadn't traded at all but millions passed through its accounts.

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

Well, this is pretty terrifying. The Daily Mail is buying the Telegraph.
One massive consolidated right-wing media empire controlled by off-shore interests at a critical moment in global politics.
What could go wrong?
