Press and now incl BBC are up to their necks in corruption, bribery and biased reporting - the press of course have been for decades but they’re now joined by BBC with Johnson appointees running the Corp. Why PMs can appoint heads of BBC is quite shocking- whoever the PMs are.

Don't forget that 41 Tory MPs in the last government took Russian donations. That might account for media reticence to report on the Nathan Gill case.

So most of Gaza flotilla detainees are being released, including Greta Thunberg but not, apparently, all of the Spanish nationals (?).

The Danish Defence ministry yesterday delivered a speech on how Putin's aim is to destabilise Europe, & yesterday we learn he is also targeting British defence structures. Didn't Hitler want world dominance too?

Kemi Badenoch vows to repeal Climate Change Act Tory leader says she would replace it with ‘cheap energy’ strategy, ending decades-long consensus on climate

This politician is awful. What planet is she on? Repealing the Climate Change Act? Does she not think of the future of the planet? 🤬 Actually, that's probably a stupid question. Of course she doesn't. She is only thinking of her own financial future.

It’s increasingly clear that convicted Russian influencer Nathan Gill was a senior member of Farage’s entourage. (Banks and Wigmore were also in and out of the Russian embassy sharing FBI files, RT talking points, and discussing gold and diamond privatisation deals)
