This is a beautiful, beautiful thing

NEW: Trump is a Russian asset. And the UK government is finally waking from its decade-long slumber Read this. And order a wind-up radio. broligarchy.substack.com/p/the-dark-t...

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

Much of the media isn’t picking up on the ITV investigation into Reform UK (WONDER WHY???). Anyway, I wrote about it for LBC Views and more specifically how if we tolerate this we will become the United States - www.lbc.co.uk/article/refo...

The absolute terror of car free 15 minute cities

Usual hand-wringing about returning to division and inaction, not getting the same opt-outs etc… but arguments to rejoin trump those what-ifs. Going it alone in a world dominated by Putin, Trump and China is strategically idiotic and economically ruinous. Shaking your head at that is red-flag-dim.

Jenrick on #r4today trying to downplay the raging racism of Reform… by saying “Farage has done more than anyone else to stand up against racism and the far right”. Farage the schoolboy Nazi. Farage the ‘breaking point’ Brexiter. Farage the mass-deportations champion. Farage the far right racist.

For the first time, the British government has acknowledged that Russia interfered in the 2016 Brexit referendum. So who did BBC Newsnight invite on to discuss what happened? Sergei Markov, Putin’s former spokesman. Par for the course, says Nerve co-founder @carolecadwalla.bsky.social 1/

Farage/Johnson/Brexiters hate the Brexit Russia connection… this is why… “Isolation from the rest of Europe is the result that Britain’s enemies wanted in 2016. Sticking to that path is the route they would choose for Britain again today if they had a vote.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Brexit is forever tainted with disinformation, foreign interference, murky vested interests, ugly prejudice, unforgivable costs and now deep unpopularity. If you really cared about our country and wanted to fix its problems, you’d admit this… Good that Burnham is finally doing so…

Nigel Farage calls Andy Burnham a liar after Burnham states that there was indeed Russian interference in the Brexit referendum. He’s fully there isn’t he, Farage, actively working to undermine western democracy, Europe and the U.K. Farage is an actual traitor.

Farage and Reform are traitors to the UK

Colin Jost was back on SNL last night doing his Pete Kegsbreath impression.

You have to scroll down to the 10.56 post in the article that is live blogging the hearing to find the poll that we now need to turn upside down. Only 473 votes so far so we absolutely can do this. Get voting.

Alito weighs retirement. We MUST win the Senate so we can block any Trump judicial nominee. www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

Burnham edges Labour closer to finally, maybe, being sane about Brexit. Over 10 years, £Billions of cost, thousands of business failures, mountains of red tape, wasted resources and lost opportunities later…. our govt may, at last, cautiously, start to be honest about the Brexit moronathon. Yay.

What’s your legacy Johnson? Brexit. Total collapse of trust in politics. And this. The small boats symbolise your dishonesty and your failure. You’re responsible for nothing but damage. Not one good thing. Not one proud moment. You’re forever a shameful disgrace who threw his own mandate in the bin.

😬 Trump's brags are being met with total silence at the UN

Britain's future relationship with Europe is being debated in Parliament on 12th October. I've just asked my MP to attend. Will you ask yours? www.europeanmovement.co.uk/contact-mp-a...

Brexit has always been an exercise in public prejudice enabling private interests. If that’s what feeds policy, it’s no wonder that what gets delivered is a shitshow. It’s muddle-headed by design because Brexiters don’t want to tell the truth about the deregulation hellscape they want from this.

The response to this call heartens me. People are shocked and appalled. Showing it’s not who we are. Letting human beings drown for the ‘crime’ of trying to find a better life has not (yet) been normalised.

www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026... This is fucking outrageous. These far right thugs are taking over. The police should be guarding the Lifeboat area and ensuring these heroes can continue to save lives.

My country has achieved the feat of making the most universally loved and respected charity in the land afraid for its own safety. And yet the dark pantomime of aggressive grievance and its media legitimation continues. If Hippocrates is a traitor for not cherry-picking lives, then are doctors next?

I am disgusted at how far right wing the BBC News and Politics shows are. Promoting a fascist who urged a baying crowd to assault a woman and fck all is said about it. BBC and their ‘presenters’ not journalists,presenters,are Nazi scum. I know you will name one who isn’t but they are involved.

Farage is never drinking pints when he doesn't know he's being filmed but is always drinking pints when he does...

At what point does a British by-election get awarded to the silver medalist, à la Ben Johnson and Carl Lewis? Asking for a friend of a friend, i.e. me. #Clacton

Farage’s ludicrous minions selling what’s left of their souls for coins, while either not knowing or caring that their boss secretly trousered five million for his ‘personal use’. He makes absolute twats of everyone who trusts him. And this James Orr character is supposed to be some sort of genius…

Story and video: thedailybritain.co.uk/mariana-mazz...

Mariana Mazzucato says Farage and Boris Johnson repeatedly misled voters and still haven’t been held accountable. Her Channel 4 interview has gone viral after she called Brexit one of Britain’s biggest economic mistakes.

If 10yrs on, £Billions wasted and zero benefits later makes you angry enough about Brexit, then don’t be checking this out to see just how much we threw away, risked and lost, so we could crow about sovereignty and put flags on roundabouts instead. what-europe-does-for-me.europarl.europa.eu/en/focus

Dolly’s departure has really hit me in the feels. RIP, Queen.

Yes. There needs to be a very big “fuck off” to all of this racism-posing-as-intellectual-thought-or-legitimate-concerns nonsense. Make racism shameful again.

Count Binface meets the press: JAPAN

I'm so grateful to everyone in Clacton for re-electing me. As a thankyou, we are going to abolish Personal Independence Payments, which will be fantastic for the 10,000 disabled people who live in my constituency.

A brief note for Nadhim Zahawi.

*wearily grabs megaphone & shouts at BBC News* How would they save £50bn from welfare? Which benefits would they cut? Which hospitals and care homes are they closing? Will nurseries reject 30 free hours now? Last time they talked about tens of billions in savings they abandoned it six wks later

‘Farage is a complete and utter fanny’ That should be the only headline this morning

A big ‘thank you’ to the nearly 10,000 voters in the Clacton of Clacton who had enough wit and good sense to vote for Count Binface

If only the British media spent more time scrutinising multimillion pound gifts to prominent MPs as it did to the thesis of a university professor 99.9% of the country had never heard of

I came first in the Clacton by-election! Of the candidates who bothered to turn up for the results. Here is my victory speech!

The real winner of the night 👏 congratulations on your successful campaign Count Binface.

Polls open in Clacton, where Farage spent more than £10,000 in byelection against Count Binface – UK politics live

"GO HOME TO YOUR RICH MATES FARAGE"

Ugh. Farage has done nothing for Clacton except humiliate it. His idiotic by-election is basically a massive tantrum at being scrutinised over his v dodgy finances. He’s unfit for public office. He just wants power. This is all a waste of everyone’s time. He’s a loser even if he wins. (iPaper)

Bin Day cometh.
