Farage says small business owners who thought Brexit would cut regulation have been betrayed – UK politics live Reform UK leader claims that burden of regulation is worse than before the referendum

You honestly can't make this up. There was no way #Brexit was ever going to cut regulation or bureaucracy for exporters to the #EU, large or small, unless we opted to stay in the Single Market and Customs union. Many of us in business repeatedly made that point.

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten.

"I don't think that we should allow ourselves to be bullied into thinking that the BBC is only any good, if it reflects the prejudice of the last person who shouted at it." ~AA

seems to me that those democrats inclined not to fight perceive themselves as living through a somewhat ordinary cycle of presidential overreach and backlash and not something much more significant and dangerous

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

The BBC is tearing itself apart to appease publications and politicians who want to see it die.

An absolutely kamikaze approach to running a media organisation. I can't see it ending well.

Trump doubles his net worth in 10 months.

The Melon becomes a trillionaire.

The people really aren’t fucking paying attention.

Too distracted by the transgender issue. Of the Christian issue. Or the Muslim issue. Or the immigrant issue. The Black issue.

Issues fed by the wealthy.

Just absolutely classic BBC. You've just broadcast the most successful programme of the year, uniting Gen Z kids online and Boomers on broadcast in a return to appointment television. And instead of celebrating, your DG reigns due to a made-up right-wing scandal.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Kuenssberg's interviewing of Nandy here is a very good example of focusing on sensation and scandal without any depth. Ofcom being useless, Farage having his own show on GBNews - Laura changes the subject. #bbclaurak

75 years ago, the ECHR was signed after the horrors of the war.

Today, Nigel Farage and many Westminster politicians want to tear up the laws that protect our basic human rights.

Our rights are not Westminster’s to take away. We will stand firmly against that.

It is okay. The God of your understanding won't stop you from your campaign of hate. You'll be able to continue to terrorize innocents people, defend taking food away from children, support a continued government shutdown to keep the truth from coming out about your leader's friendship with a pedo.
