Brexit and following the Farage narrative have destroyed the Tories. They're about to do the same to Labour.

Brexit and support for Farage's narrative have destroyed the Tory Party, reducing it to just 14 seats at the next election! The same will happen to Labour if they continue doing the same.

Can Canada mega-order the world?

Despite stormy relations with the Trump administration, Canada's PM Mark Carney is unfazed, recently passing one of the largest budgets in the nation's history.

So, how is Carney handling ties with Canada's closest ally? And is there a lesson for other US allies?

Toby Young to Address Orbán-Backed Group on UK ‘Censorship’ Conservative peer and right-wing commentator Toby Young is due to deliver a talk tomorrow (25 November) at the in-house think tank of Hungarian autocrat Viktor Orbán. Young is being interviewed by Mat...

Toby Young, self-appointed king of free speech, is speaking in Hungary tomorrow about UK “censorship”.

He’ll be addressing a group funded by Viktor Orbán’s autocratic regime, which has seized control of the country’s media, judiciary, and routinely harasses its critics

Reform is a party that says things that appeal to racists, fields racist candidates, fawns over racist world leaders, made a convicted racist guest of honour at their conference, and whose leader refuses to outright deny having racially abused people.

If only there were a word for such a party.

Believe Nigel Farage about anything and you need to give your head a wobble ….

Medics call for action from Keir Starmer over detention of Palestinian doctor

The Deep Betrayal of Nathan Gill A Personal Reckoning

See also eloquent comment from Gawain Towler:

Recent cases such as this and Qatargate have been about the direct bribery of public officials, without the involvement of any professional consultancy. We who are engaged in advocacy in Brussels are - rightly - subject to the EU’s transparency regime and to our own code of conduct.

Nathan Gill: How WhatsApp messages revealed ex-Reform politician's pro-Russian bribes The former leader of Reform UK in Wales has admitted bribery and will be sentenced on Friday.

Do read of this story about the outright and blatant corruption of a British MEP by Russian interests - the details are pretty hair-raising.

6 people have died from a nationwide listeria outbreak.

31 babies have been hospitalized with botulism from contaminated baby formula.

Instead of firing crucial FDA employees & attacking the agency, Trump should be hiring more experts to crack down on these dangerous outbreaks.

Putin swore he wouldn't attack Ukraine. He will swear again to get a favourable deal, and then he will attack again. That's not just his behaviour, it's been Russia's behaviour for centuries. Russia sees Ukraine as a fake nation, that must not exist, and Ukrainians as Nazi traitors to mother Russia.

Gibb says speculation of BBC boardroom coup is ‘ridiculous charge’ and he will not resign – latest updates BBC board member, a former spin doctor for Theresa May, dismisses suggestion in questioning by MPs

Absolutely no bias, that’s why Farage has been on a zillion times along with any Brexiteer of note and almost no left wing advocates.

www.theguardian.com/media/live/2...

Sir Robbie Gibb says he has ‘no intention of resigning’

Then the the public who pay the BBC honcho responsible for ‘impartiality’, having been an early founder of GB News, owner of the Jewish Chronicle when its standards evaporated, should make sure he’s sacked. What a rip off

Currently Reform are a minority of 5 out of 650 with political influence. How does that justify broad significant changes to programming of BBC output based on how the public may vote in 3½ years time? Shah and Gibb have power over the BBC that is wholly out of proportion and heavily biased.

‘Reset’ with the EU looks more like ‘upset’ as Brexit damage mounts | The Observer

"One of the terrible ironies is that Reform’s leader, Nigel Farage, is now capitalising on the unpopularity of a government whose laudable aims have been frustrated by the economic damage caused by a Brexit behind which he was the prime mover." ~AA

Fartage always did have a very "flexible" view of his own past. And the truth.
