You may have seen quite a bit of news from Caerphilly today.

But how much have you seen about the Reform candidate’s relationship with Nathan Gill?? Anything? Nothing?

TL:DR Trump and Hegseth murdered some fishermen and mariners in distress.

The Supreme Court would call this an official act.

I call it a crime performed in our name.

Reading this excellent deep dive into the links between Glasman, 'Blue Labour', Thiel, Bannon, Yarvin etc., it's not hard to understand why Labour is apparently hell bent on alienating most of its natural supporters.

Disturbing, to say the least.

Nobody has Long COVID, but everybody has brain fog, cognitive decline and memory loss. I talk about the overwhelming scientific evidence that COVID damages the brain, and the overwhelming social unwillingness to acknowledge it in my latest:

Reform UK Councillor Jim O’Neill has deleted this post, but we think it’s important to share as it’s pretty spot on.

A man understandably refused to hand over his ID or get out of the car for a bunch of masked thugs who refused to identify themselves.

NEW: Video shared with me from a bystander in DC shows multiple masked federal agents (at least one of whom appears to have an ICE badge) violently attacking and handcuffing a delivery worker in the street outside Bluestone Lane cafe near Logan Circle this morning.

Please take care when watching.

NEW: Wearing masks, no ID, unmarked & blacked out cars, refusing to say what agency they’re from and using profanity with any press & public nearby.

This was at 14th & R in Washington DC, this morning (Sunday).

Epstein list post of the day:

Lawyer Alan Dershowitz represented both Epstein and Maxwell.

He has also been accused of sexual abuse by one of Epstein’s victims.

Guess who else Alan Dershowitz represents?

What links tax cheats, climate denial and political strongmen? In this interview, Cambridge’s Dr Jonathan Goodman talks about why evolution gave humans a talent for hiding selfishness – and how we can fight back.
