The backstory: Ukrainian drones struck a Yandex supercomputer facility in Vladimir, taking it out. Suddenly, bot activity in US social media fell by 49%, confirming suspicions that this was the site of a massive Russian influence operation targeting US social media—mostly targeting MAGA.

The person responsible for carrying out the totally independent investigation into Reform and clearing the party of all wrongdoing has been identified.

It’s been quite a few days for Reform and other fash to have committed a lot of crime on camera. Maybe the Police could do something, at some point?

Very decent of the BBC to report our £50bn savings claim as though it's a fact, rather than the made up load of old bollocks that it actually is.

This will be fantastic

Reform UK already have a comprehensive plan for social care: me and my rich mates will be just fine thanks and the rest of you can go fuck yourselves.

Very sad to hear about the arrest of Andrew Tate. He has been charged with rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm. I once described him as "an important voice for young men", which tells you all you need to know about my moral compass.

Can someone educate the bbc on where Anne Widdecombe's house is? It's in Haytor Vale, pronounced hay-tor. As in the Dartmoor tors. Not hater. Thank you please.

Reform UK is the party of ordinary working people. The sort of ordinary working people who get £5 million gifts from billionaires and earn £22,500 an hour for promoting gold bullion.

Just to remind ourselves, here are our initial @bylinetimes.bsky.social's investigations into Cottrell's role in helping Farage become a true 'Man of the Paypal' er.... checks notes... 7 years ago

JD Vance and I found we had a surprising amount in common.

If you think £5 million could influence my policies, just imagine what £24m would do. In unrelated news, Reform will scrap net zero and drill baby drill! www.desmog.com/2026/04/30/r...

I'm confident nobody will share this.

Crypto isn’t part of the FCA’s remit so they can’t investigate Farage yet for his corrupt lobbying on behalf of his crypto donors. But come on. These moneymen are so far from well-intentioned, it’s absurd. £5mill Farage is their deregulation-monkey. Their path to profit. At our expense. (iPaper)

It's OK everyone - no need to feel pure cold rage at this one. www.itv.com/news/anglia/...

Well done @iandunt.bsky.social for not letting Reform cllr Alex Wilson take the high ground for what Farage did.

“I said it’s good of Nigel Farage to speak out about the murder of Henry Nowak. What did I say Roy?” “You said he’s a cynical piece of shit who’s exploiting a tragedy to spread hatred and division”

"Hands up if you're in hiding because you dug yourself into a massive hole by lying about a £5 million gift then pretending Russia hacked your phone"

Nigel Farage registered ‘absent’ from the last 77 votes in Parliament Official Parliamentary figures reveal that Reform leader Nigel Farage hasn't bothered to vote for anything in the last 11 weeks... www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/whe...

I deeply resent the implication that I would fiddle my finances. Just because I had to repay €173,000 after being caught funnelling EU funds into my general election campaign, then had my salary docked to recoup €40,000 in misspent EU funds, doesn't mean I'm dishonest.

Our Makerfield candidate Rob Kenyon is very proud that his grandfather fought in World War 2. And I’m sure his grandfather would be very proud that Rob has become one of the people he spent the War fighting against.

The best thing about my Russian hack story is that how the Guardian found out about the £5 million is completely irrelevant. But now people are talking about that instead of why I was given it, why I tried to hide it and whether I bought houses with it. 😉

Superb!

One of the biggest mistakes by the government was to tolerate and pander to this group. Far right extremist thugs posing as patriots, who should have been clamped down on from day one www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

"I once said I was given £5 million for my security, then a few days later said it was a reward for Brexit"

“I can’t be bought” Nigel Farage

If i got given 5 million pounds i probably wouldn't bother telling my employers, but I might mention it to HMRC.

"Dear Diary, I asked my lawyers if I could sue Ben Habib for saying I was paid £1m to throw an election. They said of course - as long as he's lying. Bollocks - back to the drawing board...."

The reason Richard Tice refused to condemn a Reform candidate saying we should "Melt Nigerians to fill potholes" is that he thinks it's a perfectly reasonable thing to say.

A comprehensive take down for sure. Good work.

Hi de hi my darlings, so finally they are up on the website… the pre Edinburgh festival warm up dates, the Edinburgh Fest dates and the post Edinburgh TOUR dates. See you out there. X markthomasinfo.co.uk/tour-dates/?

‘Nigel Farage Is the Architect of the Uk’s Decline and It’s Time for the Rest of Us to Rebuild Our Home in Europe’ The disastrous Brexit experiment imposed on us by the Reform UK leader and his allies must now be reversed, argues Caroline Lucas

We are hoping that those in the fishing industry will miraculously forget how we fucked them with our Brexit, increasing red tape, cost and barriers to trade, without delivering any of the benefits we promised.

Farage is paid £millions by billionaires who don’t live here to change our laws to their benefit. He doesn’t do the job he’s paid £97k of public money to do. He’s hell bent on destroying workers’ rights, the NHS and our human rights. Yet somehow he’s a patriot? A plague on all who promote him.

In honor of Vance's visit to Hungary, where he will campaign for Viktor Orban, I am reposting my article from last year. I argued that Orban's Hungary is one of the poorest countries, and certainly the most corrupt and least free country, in the entire EU. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

You have to feel sorry for James Dyson. Imagine buying up 33,000 acres of farmland to avoid tax, only for Labour to then close the loophole. We need more patriots like him, who drive up farmland prices and vote for Brexit then fuck off to Singapore.

I couldn't appear on the Laura Kuenssberg show as I'm in the US doing important work for my Clacton constituents, who want me to undermine the UK by sucking up to an unhinged authoritarian pedo.
