To reiterate this point: during the Q&A Farage dismissed very arrogantly a perfectly fair question from the brilliant Anna Gross of the FT and then took the piss out of the paper. If you want to persuade people that you don’t have predilections towards bullying it was not ideal. It was grim.

Trump on stage in Davos. Settle in, this could be longer than a Ken Dodd show

It’s a real shame that Nigel Farage is too unwell to do interviews the morning after Donald Trump threatens us with sanctions.

Here he is with “the bravest man he ever met”. He campaigned to make Trump President, and has spent the last year enjoying all the chaos he has caused.

A New York Times video analysis of an ICE agent’s fatal shooting of a woman in Minneapolis contradicts the Trump administration’s account. Watch our investigation here. nyti.ms/4sEdp2r

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

Correct. Quite a sight!

A liar, sacked for lying but still paid for his views, along with a former newspaper which has printed fake stories, are attacking the BBC which they say misled viewers by showing something said by a world-leading liar.

I’m confused. A liar is accusing the BBC of misleading viewers by showing something said by the biggest liar of all. What’s the motive?

Flipping on to Newsnight, isn’t this the same Revolt UK bloke who was on with Laura Kuennsburg on Sunday? Who needs GBeebies?

Nigel Farage, 3rd September to U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee

● "Free speech is under assault in Britain."

● Free speech laws are "a sledgehammer that misses the nut" because they censor opinion.

●"At what point did we become North Korea?" He asked.

Sounds good. Press/broadcasting has melted into social media and actual journalism is under threat.

The current media obsession with BS clickbait polls is a major factor in my tuning out of their dreary news-free bulletins.

Reform UK's ex-Wales leader Nathan Gill admits pro-Russia bribery Nathan Gill admits eight charges of bribery while being a Member of the European Parliament.

Nathan Gill is no fringe politician.

He was the leader of the Reform Party and before that UKIP in Wales.

A Brexit Party MEP.

A friend and ally of Nigel Farage, who in 2016 called him:

"terrific," and "as honest as the day is long."

How news works. Loudmouth spouts bollocks. Sensibles respond. Loudmouth gets further headlines. Repeat.

Graphic with the headline “London is the greatest city in the world” set against a bright view of the River Thames with the Shard, Tower Bridge and the city skyline. The text celebrates what makes London special: regularly voted the number one city in the world, incredible diversity with over 300 languages spoken, world-class transport, world leader in finance tech and life sciences, best museums and galleries many free to visit, world-leading nightlife, food sport and music for every taste, host to the world’s best sporting events, home to seven Premier League clubs, globally-ranked universities, a city where you can be yourself and love who you love, and a place for everyone.

I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again.

Ignore the haters, London is the 🐐
