Still going on. Twenty minutes uninterrupted coverage so far. Robert Jenrick is currently talking about sex chat bots.
BBC News just interrupted its coverage to go, live, to Nigel Farage - a man with no contitutional standing in our setup - responding to the budget - a document which nobody has seen yet. WHY

This is disgraceful 🤬
This went on for the rest of the full hour, at which point the BBC apologised for having to go to the weather and urged viewers to follow continuing live coverage on iPlayer. Forty-one minutes of unfiltered, unchallenged propaganda by a far right party with 8 MPs, now third in the polls. Discuss.

“While each of us (voted Brexit) for different reasons, we all believed that the UK could do a better job of running its own affairs than *unelected officials* in Brussels could." Ben Houchen... November 2020 Six years later 👇👇👇
Since his ennoblement in Boris Johnson’s 2023 resignation list, Tees Valley regional mayor Lord (Ben) Houchen has claimed more than £25,000 in tax-free daily “attendance” allowances from the House of Lords for 73 days when he hasn’t voted, spoken or performed any recorded parliamentary activity.

Reform MP Andrew Rosindell, ex Tory who dodged rape etc charges is soft on tax havens - letting millionaires pay less tax than poor people with 3 lousy jobs By coincidence, he's just back from 'fact-finding tours' AKA luxury holidays in Isles of Man, Jersey & Caymans worth £thousands via Private Eye

Jared’s father, Charles Kushner, pleaded guilty to 18 counts of tax evasion and witness tampering. He hired a prostitute to seduce his brother-in-law, videotaped it, and mailed the tape to his sister. Trump pardoned him and made him Ambassador to France and Monaco. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles...
Oh-my-goodness-I-am-so-shocked (not 😉)
Remember when Reform MP Andrew Rosindell went on GB News to accuse Labour of being a “government of self-service” and called Keir Starmer accepting gifts from donors “utterly shameful”? We do. 🧾 Well, it turns out Mr Rosindell has been enjoying some rather substantial hospitality himself. 🤔

Jared Kushner’s hacked iPhone revealed he promised MBS and MBZ he would push their agenda with Trump if they participated in a secret fund, with the two royals initially discussing over $10B before ultimately placing at least $2B into his accounts. Paywalled, use archive. archive.ph/FHGAt

Just marvellous that Jared is doing the hard sell for Russia who, predictably, is collecting blackmailable material illicitly from his iPhone, showing he’s as corrupt as fuck. Then he’s stung by Dutch Intelligence. It’s a thing of beauty. vanityfair.com/story/jared-ku...

How ironic that I literally started reading this week Ray Bradbury’s 1950s classic book, Fahrenheit 451, about a dystopian future where all books are banned, and people live subservient, colorless lives on a diet of junk tv. www.theguardian.com/books/2026/o...

The undercover reporter suggested people did not mind if Farage “makes a few bob [from politics]” Jukes replied: “Well it’s a bit priced in with our Nige, isn’t it, no one’s voting for him to be the pope” But a racist, corrupt, security-risk PM is fine, is it? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Behind silly title this bbc series is *very* good But so striking listening to Franco episode, recorded in 2023, takes as a given that Francoism is dead Today there’s a very decent change that Franco’s ideological successors will be part of Spain’s next government www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

America is lost, actually. If members of Congress don’t pull it back from the brink - as Trump goes full bore pro-Russia, and plots martial law to thwart the midterms….we’re gone as a country. It’s little experiment is over.
