The man behind donations of Β£200,000 to Reform is a church warden from Potters Bar, who just happens to work for a billionaire from Kazakhstan. But it's definitely not money laundering or interference in UK politics by a foreign national.

On the anniversary of the UK leaving the EU, it is worth hearing once again the many benefits of Brexit, clearly articulated by those who voted for it.

Worth remembering when looking at the horrific scenes in the US right now that both Reform and the Tories have pledged to bring in ICE-style organisations to the UK if they win power

Suspect some female Tory MPs are quietly dying inside at this. When you’re so desperate to get in a bit of gratuitous foreigner-bashing that you find yourself arguing *against* preventative strategies that try to prevent sexual violence, ffs, what have you become?

Liverpool have three wins from three against their Pot 1 & 2 opponents, two defeats from two against Pots 3 & 4.

It's a ridiculous season. Very occasionally sublime, very frequently ridiculous, often from one minute to the next.

Still love you, lads. You're breaking my heart though. Up the Reds

First injection to stop HIV approved The shot, given six times a year or every other month, is an alternative to taking daily pills to protect against ever catching the virus.

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?

Any ideas what may have happened in the interim?

YouTube video by talkSPORT "APPALLING STANCE!" Simon Jordan rages at "COWARD" Gary Neville after Union Jack REMOVAL admission!

Simon Jordan on TalkSport, unchallenged yet again.

As a Talksport employee, I am embarrassed by this rebuttal of what Neville said. This moron pontificates without question. It is bonkers.

And yeah, i'll probably be sacked. Fuck it.

Graphic with the headline β€œLondon is the greatest city in the world” set against a bright view of the River Thames with the Shard, Tower Bridge and the city skyline.

The text celebrates what makes London special: regularly voted the number one city in the world, incredible diversity with over 300 languages spoken, world-class transport, world leader in finance tech and life sciences, best museums and galleries many free to visit, world-leading nightlife, food sport and music for every taste, host to the world’s best sporting events, home to seven Premier League clubs, globally-ranked universities, a city where you can be yourself and love who you love, and a place for everyone.

Even the BBC has finally caught up with Farage.

Slower than continental drift, but they're there at last.
