Daniel Taylor, seen here taking Nigel Farage on a tour of Ramsgate was a Kent Councillor.

He’s just been jailed for 12 months for 10 years of coercive behaviour and threatening to kill his wife.

We've had questions from three broadcasters so far, and they have all been about the practicalities and costs. None has asked about the legal/moral issue of retrospectively changing laws so huge numbers of people who have made their lives in the UK will be expelled.

Remember how I said that the problem is not Yer Da on Facebook: the problem is elite radicalisation, the political and media class driving themselves and each other insane? Reform is talking here about mass deportation.

Hi Nigel Farage, just wondering when you’re going to investigate Matt Goodwin over Russian oil funding, paid through Hungarian interests?

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.

β€œBrexit was the first, deep cut into that optimistic, multiracial Britain. What has followed was entirely predictable.”

This should be interesting.

Nigel Farage said Liz Truss’s budget was β€œthe best Conservative Budget since 1986”.

Robert Jenrick wanted the Tories to expel Liz Truss as a result of it.

In the ongoing political pothole wars in Nottinghamshire

I like the government pivot to reminding voters that Farage is an avowed enemy of NATO & Europe & an ardent admirer of Vladimir Putin, who routinely orders the murders of critics & opponents. It is politically effective & morally essential.

Trump’s attack on the BBC is a harbinger of much worse to come The BBC has its problemsβ€”but they are nothing compared to the American billionaires who control much of US media

Matt Goodwin is a political opportunist who doesn't care about people in Gorton and Denton.

Only a vote for Labour can stop him. Vote Labour on Thursday 26 February.

This whole Epstein File episode has really brought home how much we’ve lost our empathy on a massive scale. There is actual evidence both documented and verified by survivors of horrific crimes. Committed by people at the highest levels. Yet not one of them has been punished.

Sanders: The American people do not want this country to be an authoritarian society or an oligarchy. We have our differences, that’s what democracy is aboutβ€”we argue it out. We don’t throw people who disagree in jail. We don’t intimidate the media. We don’t send ICE agents to shoot people.

Not sure if Man United owner Jim Ratcliffe will see this being as he literally migrated to Monaco to avoid paying tax in the UK, but we wanted to put this up outside the stadium anyway….

APPARENTLY it costs the

to remove foreign objects from
people's rectums. Why aren't we
removing British objects instead?
Was Brexit all for nothing?

Reform UK’s mid-level governance is an utter disaster. Nevertheless, the media are pushing the idea of them in national government as if it would be any better. All of this happened just this week, yet journalists are obsessed with a fabricated β€˜scandal of the century.’

So Farage is in the Epstein files at least 41 times so far but not a single comment in our media.

Nigel Farage was mentioned 43 times in the Epstein files.

But you don’t see any of the β€˜political’ journalists mention this do you?

Instead it’s the usual diatribes against Starmer.

These people are an embarrassment

Matt Goodwin lives nearly 200 miles from Manchester and he hates the place.

The US is close to being lost so let us not forget Farage will stop at nothing to import these exact same Trumpist policies here in the UK. A vote for Reform is a vote for fascism, tyranny and blood on our streets.
