βWho will he blame for this?': Five Reform news stories uncovered | LBC
A shamefully valid exercise.
Henry Riley takes @mrjamesob.bsky.social through five poorly covered stories concerning Nigel Farage's Reform which the media would already have highlighted if it applied the same level of scrutiny to Farageβs party as it does to Labour.

Sources tell Channel 4 News allegations against Dame Romeo were not dismissed
Following days of political turmoil and speculation - Sir Chris Wormald is standing down as the head of the Civil Service - after just over a year in the post.
Report says that while Cab Office dismissed the claims against Romeo, the Foreign Office did not. Echoes of my experience in 2019, when Cabinet Office refused to address my ethical concerns about Brexit, but FCO took them seriously. Cab Office has become politicized. www.channel4.com/news/sources...

UK to ban political party donations from foreign-owned companies
Government says new legislation will curb overseas interference in elections
Overseas tycoons such as Elon Musk would be barred from giving substantial donations to UK political parties under new legislation to block companies making gifts if they do not have British owners or make sufficient revenue in the country

It's almost like being fabulously rich doesn't make you happy or well adjusted. It's almost like it makes you sad and lonely. And leaves you forever casting about for scapegoats to offset your deep self-loathing. Thank you Jim Ratcliffe and Elon Musk for these important life lessons.

His earlier comments to Sky News, external had drawn criticism from Manchester United fan groups. He said: "You can't have an economy with nine million people on benefits and huge levels of immigrants coming in.
"I mean, the UK has been colonised. It's costing too much money. The UK has been colonised by immigrants, really, hasn't it?"
He incorrectly claimed the population of the UK had risen by 12 million to 70 million people in the last five years. The Office for National Statistics estimates it has actually risen from 66.7 million to 69.4 million, an increase of less than three million.
Ratcliffe made an "incorrect claim" according to the BBC which is, as always, absolutely feeble when it comes speaking truth to power. No, he made it up you bunch of craven weasels.
