Ex-leader of Reform UK in Wales Nathan Gill is sentenced to 10 & a half years in jail for taking bribes as part of a pro-Russia influence campaign

Gill was paid thousands of pounds to give TV interviews in favour of a key Putin ally and to make speeches in European Parliament, where he was an MEP

UK PM Keir Starmer has demanded an investigation into Reform’s Russia links after the party's ex-Wales leader was jailed, Sky News reports.

An investigation into Russian interference in our politics is long overdue. And we all know who should be questioned first.

Starmer demands investigation into Reform-Russia links after party's ex-Wales leader jailed The former leader of Reform in Wales, Nathan Gill, has been jailed for 10-and-a-half years after being paid £40,000 to make pro-Russian statements in the European Parliament.

This is outrageous from Keir Starmer.

‘Russian links to Reform need investigating’, he says. So why is his government still fighting case now in Grand Chamber of Strasbourg court refusing to have such an investigation into Russian interference ??

Time for a top to bottom investigation, Nigel.

UK Russian interference case heads to 'Europe's Supreme Court' THREE former MPs have lodged a case with “Europe’s Supreme Court”, accusing the UK Government of failing in its duty to protect elections from…

Pleased to be part of this hugely significant legal challenge. The Boris Johnson Govt first suppressed the Russia report & then refused to act on it. As evidence mounts of Putin’s hybrid warfare, it’s vital that we can be confident in the robustness of our democratic systems

Thank you to @mrjamesob.bsky.social for having me on, one of the v few people in the UK press to follow this story during what is now a decade of media apathy &/or complicity

Brexit blame game returns ahead of Budget UK fiscal watchdog to link next month’s productivity downgrade to EU exit and Covid-19

🧵 Finally, the Government are putting an end to their 'mum's the word' approach to the economic disasterclass that is Brexit.

The botched Brexit deal - dreamt up by Farage and delivered by the Conservatives - has delivered nothing but extra red tape, extra costs, and crushed opportunity. [1/3]

Just remembered this post. And realised it has a very different resonance now.

We now know his close friend and ally Nathan Gill was accepting Russian bribes when he posted this

David Lammy says Vladimir Putin wants Nigel Farage to divide Europe The deputy prime minister launched a scathing attack on Reform UK, pointing out their former leader in Wales, Nathan Gill, was recently found guilty of taking money from the Kremlin

Mr Lammy’s broadside follows Mr Farage being skewered in interviews over his “admiration” for the Russian President, even though he now describes him as a “very bad dude”.

🇺🇸 🔥 That. Was. Impressive.

We are watching America reassert itself and its values from the grassroots up. The world saw you and we have huge hope invested in you.

Dallas didn’t disappoint. #NoKings

100% agree 👍

I know how the media works. The whole China kerfuffle is being bigged up to avoid the bigger picture about Russia.

China is not a friend. On the other hand, it hasn't launched the biggest land war in Europe for 80 years with well over a million casualties so far

Worth a read. Why does it so often seem that the UK govt for so long has been complacent about the levels of Russian meddling in UKs politics than other nations

Like with Brexit, it’s foreign govt’s & their security services that seem to be the ones finding wrong doing.

Hey @zackpolanski.bsky.social I hear you are talking to Laura Kuenssberg tomorrow morning?

Can you ask her why this story is being exposed by a 3-week-old-old outlet @thenerve.news & not the BBC?? 🤔

Britain’s Media Has Let Nigel Farage Reshape Political Journalism. Why? – Byline Times Digital / Print Edition The Reform UK Leader’s rise is not an aberration but the predictable consequence of an industry that has restructured itself around virality, writes James Bloodworth

No Nigel Farage, this does not "finally put this nonsense to bed".

It does not explain why you trotted out the same Putin propaganda points as your bribe-taking mate Nathan Gill, for years.

Or why your sugar-daddy Arron Banks lied about his many meetings with Russian agents.

Nigel Farage now says that any suggestion he's been soft on Putin is "just nonsense".

Here's a quick reminder of what he's said in the past

It’s about time!

Federal Secret Police and plainclothes ICE agents kidnap multiple people from a neighborhood in Chicago. They then deploy teargas and brutally beat neighbors who come out to express their concern.

Reform UK's deputy leader has broken parliamentary rules by failing to register hospitality. So what's the story with Richard Tice, the French villa and the ex-Kremlin minister?

" this lack of media curiosity continues even now there is cold, hard evidence of a financial channel from the Kremlin to a British politician, Gill, all while the UK government has repeatedly refused to act on evidence of Russia’s years-long campaign to infiltrate and influence UK politics."
