Up in court next week. I've decided to dispense with witnesses, evidence and facts and rather show the jury my ordinary bloke in a pub routine - sipping real ale I don't like while dressed as a farmer & standing on a sack of cash so the people can see me. Let the people decide.

In the 60s & 70s Britain taxed the rich properly β€” ordinary people could buy homes. Now billionaires own the media, bankroll politicians, dodge taxes & hoard property. Housing crisis isn’t an accident, it’s what happens when the rich write the rules.

Farage built Brexit, and Brexit broke Britain. Nigel Farage is the cause of the mess we’re in - not the solution.

Farage's comments are stupid because they ignore decades of scientific studies disproving any link between paracetamol and autism, and falsely compare a well-studied medicine to the thalidomide disasterβ€”spreading needless fear and conspiracy nonsense. Typical of the man.

"We were told thalidomide was a safe drug and it wasn't..." Nigel Farage says he has 'no idea' if Donald Trump is right about paracetamol being linked to autism.

Ed Davey, "It's so frustrating, so infuriating that Nigel Farage gets such an easy ride from the media" "As he lies, as he divides, the BBC and others given Farage so much time and attention" "But they never hold him to account for all the damage he has already done" "The damage of Brexit"

In 2018 Jeremy Hunt bought 7 flats in a single transaction, paying around Β£3.57 million for the lot. Buying 7 in one go avoided about Β£300,000 in stamp duty. If your kids can't find homes to buy near you, blame people like Hunt, not desperate people running for their lives.

The Right wing media that blasted 'greedy' train drivers on Β£60k a year wanting a pay rise are strangely supportive of farmers incensed at having to pay inheritance tax on farms worth over Β£3 million. You'd be forgiven thinking it was millionaire media tycoons protecting their millionaire mates.

'..UK rules mean products cannot be tested abroad; they have to be tested in the country in a certified lab, of which there are now none.' Rather than Brexit being 'over' or 'done'as Farage would have it, it continues to affect every aspect of our daily lives. www.theguardian.com/business/202...
