Kemi Badenoch spent most of PMQs pouring doubt on Andy Burnham's claims about Russian interference in our democracy, yet her spokesman can't tell me whether she has yet read the Russia report, which was published some six years ago during her own time in Government

The utter shamelessness of Kemi Badenoch boasting at Conservative party conference about 'defending press freedom' and berating Reform for banning critical journalists from their conference, just days after banning Byline Times journalists from her own

Thanks again to @mrjamesob.bsky.social for highlighting Kemi Badenoch's banning of journalists she doesn't approve of, which very few other journalists in the country seem willing to mention for some reason inews.co.uk/opinion/bade...

Whoever did this … Bravo 🙌👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Funny that little Nigel is so keen to distinguish his (current) party from the Tories, isn't it? See below for a list of Reform devotees, who all seem to have something in common... 🤔 1/2

I see the Kremlin's official spokesperson is getting twitchy... 🤮

I've done a deep-dive on the Harborne and Delo mega-donations over the weekend, and whether they may have to be handed back From my reading, a lot of unlikely things have to be true at once for the two £36m 'gifts' to be allowed once the (retrospective) Representation of the People Bill becomes law

Three senior Reform figures were involved in those Channel 4 revelations we saw last night. Two have been kicked out. The third is Nigel Farage. Farage should be suspended while this matter is investigated. He has very serious questions to answer.

The Daily Mail's best paid columnist is Boris Johnson. A man more deserving of scrutiny across the last two decades than practically anyone else in public life.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Is the biggest threat to Reform, the truth?

🔴 NEW: ‘There’s No Money In Politics If You’re Straight’: How Farage’s Words Are Coming Back To Haunt Him By @josiahmortimer.bsky.social The Reform UK leader once claimed that only the corrupt could make money in politics. Read the full story below.

Nigel Farage Parliamentary Activity 29/06/2026 Debates participated in: 0 Individual contributions: 0 Words spoken: 0 Votes cast: 0 Votes missed: 0 #Parliament #UKPolitics

Nothing says 'speaking for the concerns of the common man' like being paid hundreds of thousands of pounds to promote actual gold bars

Nigel Farage has been referred to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) over claims his cryptocurrency advocacy has benefited his billionaire backer, Christopher Harbone. Who would have guessed www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

One for all the 'his voters don't care what he does, they'll still vote for him' crowd

The Davis Downside Dossier David Davis famously said there would be no downsides to Brexit only considerable upsides - so @yorkshirebylines.co.uk started recording them.....they stopped at just over 2,000

Says the most professional of professional politicians. Leader of not 1, not 2 but 3 political parities and before that he was a Tory. Stood 8 times for parliament and served 5 terms in the European Parliament. Farage is the establishment. Never let him tell you otherwise.

Every day, new facts emerge about corrupt & fraudulent Farage ... meme via Martin Ormerod

🔴 SCOOP: Farage doesn't seem to want to answer questions about his money. So I went looking - and found that the Reform leader's personal company is in breach of UK company law democracyforsale.substack.com/p/revealed-n...

Nigel Farage has turned into Enoch Powell of the social media age. He’s trying to excuse racist disorder and violence against police officers. He’s pushing the politics of grievance and division that goes totally against our fundamental British values of tolerance and decency.

Today’s independent front page Brexit has been a disaster – it’s time the guilty men felt some shame

Nigel Farage "Trump is an extraordinary and remarkable human being." Donald Trump owns Farage and if you vote for him you get Donald Trump as UK President.

There may well be serious Qs about policing and equality guidance. But there is still no conclusive evidence that anti-discrimination policy caused the actions of officers the night Henry Nowak died. But half of British politics is acting as if there is. Piece from me substack.com/home/post/p-...

Nigel Farage Listens to the News

Does that include the £5mn?

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

Reform UK are refusing to explain why Nigel Farage posed for a "Christmas drink" with far-right activists, some of whom took part in a violent attack at a church. One of the men pictured with Farage was convicted of assault by beating last month, after storming an anti-racism meeting at the church

In threatening to punish those parts of the country where people don’t vote his way the Reform party leader is betraying the basic principles of democracy - its shameless and grotesque bullying which shows nothing but contempt for voters. What does the Electoral Commission say about this?

I see Nigel Farage is out pretending to care about antisemitism again

Seems like a crunch moment Britain. We either let this man get away with it again and become a British MAGA. OR WE hold him to account and draw a line in the sand. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

When Angela Rayner underpaid £40,000 stamp duty on her flat, Richard Tice said it was "morally completely indefensible” and she should immediately resign if she had “any moral decency”. Now we learn he personally made £91,000 in excess payments by failing to pay the tax his company legally owed

Tice and Farage are not only pretty dim but completely unimaginative with it. Policy based on "what we did in the 1970s" which has no bearing on reality.

"Matt Goodwin is an embarrassment to Reform - 𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘶𝘳." Failed Reform UK candidate Matt Goodwin is facing accusations of fake quotes, factual errors, and AI-generated content in his new book. Is it time to reassess his entire academic legacy?

Stopping gas dictating UK energy price could cut bills by £200. Renewables are the cheapest but Ofgem's pricing links electricity price to gas, enables profiteering. Gas produced energy must be decoupled from the rest. Public ownership is even better for ending profiteering and lower bills

🚨 If Reform can’t run Worcestershire… how can they run Britain? Nigel Farage now says Reform “regret” taking control of Worcestershire County Council. No one forced them to stand. They campaigned on cutting waste and reducing taxes.

🔴The Oil Lobby Is Using the Iran War to Revive North Sea Drilling but Official Data Shows It Won’t Cut Bills Fossil fuel funded think tanks, petrostate-linked policy institutes and oil market insiders are all being presented as impartial observers by the media, reports @nafeez.bsky.social

Pot. Kettle. Nathan Gill.

We should be asking British politicians this question. Answers provide a powerful indicator of integrity. Not sure I’ve ever heard it put to Farage, for example.

Every time Nigel Farage's parties have lost an election he has blamed it on "cheating" by ethnic minorities and every time he receives huge amounts of media attention for doing so. The only problem? No evidence of cheating is ever found bylinetimes.com/2026/03/02/n...

Why the Gorton and Denton by-election could be the moment when Nigel Farage's meteoric rise finally starts crashing down www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/nigel-fara...

An important reminder

Just a reminder 'Farage calls for end to funding NHS through taxes - but fails to say how it should be paid for.'

Nigel Farage's Reform are not the workers' champions - look at their policies' www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

"I can't be bought" Says man who sells video birthday greetings for £70 a time.

We must defend UK democracy from Russian interference and the wider web of dirty money and misinformation which enables bad actors to undermine trust in politics. The Elections Bill is crucial in addressing this - the govt must not delay it any further.

🔴Reform MPs Accused of Pandering to Putin After Skipping Russian Interference Debate Nigel Farage’s party refused to attend the debate, called after more than 100,000 people signed a petition demanding a public inquiry into Russian interference in British politics bylinetimes.com/2026/02/10/r...

Nigel Farage tells GB News that Keir Starmer's decision to appoint Peter Mandelson as US ambassador shows his judgement is "seriously wrong" and he should stand down as Prime Minister. Here's what Farage said when Mandelson was appointed
