Things Farage won’t answer:

1. Why did he lie about buying a house in Clacton?

2. What did he know about Welsh Reform Leader Nathan Gill’s Russian Bribes?

3. Why did he lie about meeting the Russian Ambassador?

4. Why is his flagship council Kent raising taxes and cutting services?

Thomas Concannon, who leads the FSA’s England Fans’ Embassy, said:


β€œThese prices are astonishing - $2,000 for the cheapest final ticket is unacceptable.


β€œIf fans are successful in obtaining a category four ticket from the first game to the last, that could set them back $3,180 at least. That is more than double what Qatar cost.


β€œCombined with travel to the Americas and accommodation, this will be the most expensive World Cup for matchgoing fans we've ever seen by some distance.


β€œA healthy allocation of the lowest category of tickets should be made available to participating nations that are not affected by host city location or dynamic pricing.


β€œAdditionally, participating nation tickets should be located in key areas directly behind the goals to provide the best possible backing to their teams.


β€œWe'd urge the FA to work with other nations around the world to put pressure on FIFA to keep this World Cup financially accessible for matchgoing fans.”

FIFA's presale for World Cup 2026 tickets has revealed just how expensive the tournament could be for supporters - and we're calling on the FA to lobby FIFA for fairer prices #FIFAWorldCup #WC2026

Yet it's a potentially fruitful line of argument.
Many of the UK's current problems stem from something most of us would prefer not to dwell on - Brexit. Depressed investment, low productivity, stagnant economic growth and living standards, the strain on the public finances and thus public services, food prices, the "Boriswave" of more than 2 million (legal) immigrants, increased red tape and border hassles for businesses, farmers and travellers... all can be traced back, to a greater or lesser extent, to 2016 and the EU Referendum. And who, as he reminds us again now, spent 30 years of his life campaigning for Britain to leave the EU? Farage. 
It is he, Farage, who 'broke Britain' with Brexit and is now capitalising on the vast damage he caused

β€œFarage β€œbroke Britain" with Brexit and is now, outrageously, capitalising on the vast damage he caused”

Article argues there’s no need to mention Reform’s racism as the Brexit shitshow is failure enough.
But that had its roots in racism too. So let’s do both.

The shit posting "Reform are great, Starmer is a twat" type posts go a bit quieter from about 10pm, have you noticed?

Hint: 10pm UK is midnight in Moscow.

So, Sunday Times runs with latest poll showing Farage winning if there was an election now. But makes NO mention of Reform’s collusion with Russia. And this is how democracy gets beaten to death in the dark. Voters are not being told the truth. Reform is given the stage but is NEVER held to account.

That’s me in the video. And a Fox News host just celebrated me being assaulted by ICE.

If ICE will do this to a congressional candidate with a big platform, just imagine what they’re doing to the people they’re kidnapping.
