Why billionaires want you to blame immigrants

ITV spent a year undercover inside Reform and found a far right party is, shockingly, full of racist c*nts. Farage’s fash for cash gravy train is hurtling towards oblivion and I’m fucking LOVING IT. What we know so far and popcorn at the ready tonight! youtu.be/2IxMD_FZjvQ

Absolutely beautifully put. 👇

Old enough to remember when Hillary said this . .

Polanski interviews the award winning journalist Carole Cadwalladr about Farage/ Reform donations +sponsors. But so much more discussing Brexit,Trumps 2016 election, the relationships of Putin, Trumps Maga, the Tech Bros,+ the implications for Europe + the world in general. youtu.be/43m0LKNDz6M?...

Zelensky hit back at Elon Musk's claim that he "went too far," saying Trump and Musk "can't find the key to stop Putin," so it's easier to blame Ukraine for rising prices actually driven by the Middle East war and the blocked Strait of Hormuz.

Ben Meiselas: Donald Trump promised he would end the war in 24 hours after the election in 2024. Of course, he didn't do that. So now he's blaming Zelenskyy for all of his own failures.

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

“Well, I never did”, as my dad used to say.

Wow. What a campaign. Thank you to the 1000+ volunteers today and everyone throughout the campaign. The Green Party got 10% last time. Whatever happens tonight - we made Labour work like they never have before. I'm so proud of you all. 💚🙏🏽

Jet Shaheds have a new hunter. AI-powered turrets defending Kyiv can rotate 360° and engage targets moving at up to 800 km/h. One group brought down up to six targets in a single night. The Air Force footage shows what those numbers mean when a jet-powered Shahed is caught.

👀 "Nearly 10 years ago, Nigel Farage told LBC he would leave the country if Brexit were not a stunning success. For reasons that no one can quite fathom, he is still here."

The NYT list of the best TV shows of the 21st century. Some bizarre choices, some omissions and the order is wrong, but okay.

"Thank you and I guess all I can do is this..." Rory Stewart gives his first response to his viral Newsnight moment. #Newsnight

This takes seconds to complete. Now’s the time to let all MP’s recognise that we aren’t prepared to let Farage decide how our economy works.

"Offensive operations are still possible in modern war. But they need the intellectual effort to develop new techniques to make them viable and repeatable at scale." A review of potential implications of recent Ukrainian counteroffensives in the east & south. mickryan.substack.com/p/ukraine-bu...

Any way, having whipped up the far right for almost a century, the Daily Mail is not in a great position to complain when it turns on them.

Just a reminder, Professor James Orr, Reform UK head of policy, teaches 'ethics' to undergraduates at Cambridge University youtu.be/aXut3s90rUI

Stop whatever you’re doing & watch this now! Reform’s magic money tree has been bust wide open. Huge kudos to undercover reporters Verbatim via @channel4news.bsky.social youtu.be/aXut3s90rUI?... huge

This is serious. If Reform blatantly, intentionally and knowingly broke election law, they should be held fully accountable. Liberal Democrats have asked the Police and the Electoral Commission to investigate.

It doesn’t get any cuter than this, folks. 😍

The US National Debt has now hit $40 trillion.

Start the Count.

Okay Clacton. Let’s go.

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting the world's press: www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEsa...

An American interviewer asked me about my political beliefs. #VoteBinface

I convinced a Clacton voter to stop voting for Farage, in less than 15 minutes. 😍 Farage is probably going to win this by-election, but don't let anyone tell you there's no hope.

Donald Trump posted a graphic targeting Abdul El-Sayed and his wife, comparing them to him and Melania with the caption “Two Very Different America’s.” Here’s how El-Sayed flipped it right back on him live on CNN:

I believe Clacton deserves an MP who will spend their time shining a light on everything the area has to offer. And why wait till I'm elected? I've been to visit one of the constituency's most stunning landmarks.

If you have to hear bad news, hear it from Ret. Lt. Gen. Hertling. At least you'll be smarter afterwards @katiephang.bsky.social and @markhertling.bsky.social discuss Hormuz and military issues. www.youtube.com/live/7-bDH0t...

About 400 UAVs took off to bomb Russia. We're waiting for news about Wildberries in the morning.

Every human soul has been through some kind of pain, or grief. And so we can recognize it in each other. When we do, in general, we don't first ask "which party do you belong to?". We simply offer an ear, a shoulder, support. It's what MAKES us human. Don't let yourself be stripped of compassion!

A Channel 4 News investigation has found that Christopher Harborne registered as living in the UK to vote for Brexit and make large financial donations - but months later stated he was based abroad. ✉️ Read our latest newsletter:

I heartily recommend Michael Crick’s book on Farage, ‘One Party After Another.’ Full of interesting stuff about what Farage and Co got up to with Euro funding ( some of it taxpayers’ money) while UKIP MEP’s.

“The Iran war is almost certainly the easiest drone war that America will ever fight. Countering this cheap and widely accessible technology will only get harder. www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

What’s that, Dale? You want to give me an unconditional personal gift of £5million to do whatever I want with? Sure! I just need to fill out a form. If I didn’t declare it that would be silly.

Go on my son.

Lights out and away we go! #Clacton

Count Binface Vs The Count of Cunty Crypto 💰 Farage’s career is now reduced to arguing with a fucking bin. In some ways it’s the most genuinely British thing he’s done. With the Count polling high, is victory…Binevitable? Here’s what’s gone down so far. youtu.be/VaAn6wjciRg
