Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has posted on X

“1 million people living in this country don’t speak any English at all. 4 million people living in this country barely speak passable English”

It’s racked up 2 million views AND IT’S COMPLETELY UNTRUE

Levels of assault on ambulance service workers unacceptable Ambulance workers risk serious assault while carrying out their service as paramedics helping the public; more protection is paramount

"Recent statistics highlighting the depressing truth of 55 ambulance workers being attacked or abused every day within our 14 NHS UK ambulance services. Reading this data prompted me to revisit this all too familiar, depressing and unacceptable subject."

He was never a prince. For survivors everywhere, Virginia did this for you."

It’s a harrowing read at times but her courage and fortitude really shine through. Let’s hope they’re all held accountable and justice prevails. RIP Virginia ⚖️💐💐

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre.

She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s.

Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

Nigel Farage lashes out at a FT journalist and refuses to answer the question.

Is this how Reform UK would ignore media questions if they got into government?

Jeffrey Epstein emailing Peter Thiel: Finding things on their way to collapse was much easier than finding the next bargain. ... Return to tribalism. Counter to globalization. Amazing new alliances.

Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.

Any political party spreading lies about voter fraud as a pretext to make it harder for every one to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

Remember this.

The truth is the near future either holds a great revolution in which we are finally freed forever from subservience to greedy overlords.

Or a future which makes 1984, Brave New World, Fahrenheit 451, The Hunger Games and The Handmaid's Tale look like fairy tales.

Countries that do not embrace AI could be ‘left behind’, says OpenAI’s George Osborne Without AI you will be a ‘weaker and poorer nation’, warns former UK chancellor two months into job at US firm The former chancellor George Osborne has warned that countries that do not embrace the kind of powerful AI systems made by his new employer, OpenAI, risked “Fomo” and could be left weaker and poorer. Osborne, who is two months into a job as head of the $500bn San Francisco AI company’s “for countries” programme, told leaders gathered for the AI Impact summit in Delhi: “Don’t be left behind.” He warned that without AI rollouts they could end up with a workforce “less willing to stay put” because they might want to seek AI-enabled fortunes elsewhere.

Reform’s white nationalism will extinguish everything good about Britain If they gain power people will realise – but far too late

Heartbreaking from @yasminalibhaibrown.bsky.social on the very real damage Farage and Reform are doing to our country and shared future.

“Brexit was the first, deep cut into that optimistic, multiracial Britain. What has followed was entirely predictable.”

Many thanks to Zia Yusuf for helping us redefine 'Shadow Minister' to mean someone who isn't in the official party of Opposition, isn't even elected and whose only role is being a toxic gobshite.

Robert Jenrick announces Reform UK will keep the OBR and Bank of England independence, with an emphasis on fiscal discipline, signified by restoring the two child benefit cap.

The speech is essentially the same as every Tory chancellor's conference speech in the last 10 years.

Wow, someone really did not think this through.

"I can 'exonerate' you for a price"—made as a public offer—is essentially an acknowledgment that the person being offered the bribe is in fact...

...a criminal who did exactly what they have been accused of.

‘It’s a bully’s charter’

The Trade Union Congress’s Paul Nowak calls Reform’s plans to repeal the Equality Act a ‘blank cheque for bad employers'.

He’s absolutely right!
