Farage now going on the air claiming Raheem Kassam, who called Kemi Badenoch a “Nigerian scammer”, denying he was his head of staff at UKIP, and claiming he is just “someone in America”. Soon he’ll be claiming Donald Trump is someone he just happened to meet in a lift

Can’t argue with that! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bryan Johnson is a tool

In one day, two politicians - Bolsonaro in Brazil and Vucic in Serbia - with ties to Trump have lost surprise elections thanks to high turnout. The rise of the international far-right is not inevitable.

There's no coming back from any of this.

"They can start cutting people's faces up. They can stab someone. They can shoot someone." EXCLUSIVE: Our hidden cameras capture the leader of Turning Point UK organising a fake rally for a foreign government and helping arrange a murder-for-hire with loyalist paramilitaries.

Pretty extraordinary for the Jewish Chronicle to run an op ed & news story about Nigel Farage warning of antisemitism in the Greens without mentioning that he is the only serving major party leader to have been criticised by Jewish groups for using tropes linked to antisemitic conspiracy theories.

Happening everywhere.

The Temu version!

i really am not convinced the Telegraph isn’t a massive satirical art piece

Man who enobled a KGB agent's son... despite SIS raising concerns... says what?

Half billion royals. That's what they are - stealing your cash. #AbolishTheMonarchy

There aren't many days when you can kayak off Start Point, renowned for one of Britain's most dangerous tidal races. But yesterday the stars aligned, so I bunked off work. Delighted to see Rupert Kirkwood (the Lone Kayaker) out there. He took this picture of me +1. Before you ask: yes, it's real. 🧵

Macklemore’s ‘Free Palestine’ concerts have sold out.

There are more Cornell frat boys accused of raping one woman than there are trans athletes competing in all of NCAA sports.

England is a made up thing. It has no basis in the ineluctable laws of nature. Its extent is defined by Edward II getting his arse handed to him. Athelstan conquering York. The Welsh of Cumbria were incorporated, the Welsh of Gwynedd were not. It is a political idea, an aspiration - not taxonomy.

A landlord making £100,000 a month says young people have “no excuse to be poor”. Excellent. I love financial advice. Gather round, children, let's examine how he himself stopped being poor. metro.co.uk/2026/09/20/i...

"Do BBC news work for Reform?" via Harry Eccles

A minor detail is missing from the headline.

All four supporting acts have backed out of Ed Sheeran’s tour, including his own backing band. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The Irish musicians, Beoga, who play alongside Ed Sheeran, have withdrawn from Sheeran’s tour. This is the statement they published on Instagram:

a great letter in the times today. perhaps worth sharing in these troubled times. #RNLI #heroes

I’m just a person on my fucking knees begging the government to use its absolutely massive majority to do something extremely fucking popular: save our democracy.

Here's a French video (with English subtitles) about what would happen if the far-right racists got their way and all foreigners and people of colour were forced to leave.

Just imagine how much disinformation and micro targeting £72m gets you… Shame on the leaders who did nothing to protect democracy from the assault coming its way …as if we learnt nothing from Brexit.

Christopher Harbourne has matched Ben Delo’s £36 million donation to Reform. This is unprecedented. Andy Burnham could have stopped this but instead he choose to let Reform threaten democracy itself. Will be discussing on @lbc.co.uk from 6pm.

Easy to donate: rnli.org/support-us/g...

The MoD recently gave a £10 million contract to an Israeli-owned arms firm which operates under the authority of minister Bezalel Smotrich -- who is subject to UK sanctions. Is Andy Burnham going to do anything about that? www.declassifieduk.org/uk-awarded-c...

Since its foundation in 1824 the bravery of Royal National Lifeboat Institution volunteers has saved more than 146,700 lives at sea. Hundreds of those volunteers have died attempting to save others. They are the best of us.

Watching BBC News and it's striking to hear the presenters repeatedly referring to the AfD as "far-right" whilst refusing to ever say the same about the hundreds of actual masked blackshirts currently swarming British ports

Another wtf reaction to Dover this time from Kent Police . So again 👉 At next peace ☮️ march please wear black paramilitary gear, balaclavas & block all roads. No arrests will be made .

Labour need to be clear. Neither the thugs at Dover nor the mobs at Portsmouth have ‘legitimate concerns’. They’re racist hate-driven violent thugs.

If hundreds of masked men turned up outside a Reform rally where Nigel Farage was speaking just to register their 'concern' I have little doubt that the majority of the UK right-wing media would explode in anger. But they appear pretty sanguine about the current mobs at the coast. #r4today

Gerard McCarthy's response to Maureen Lipman is so fucking good

Our undercover reporter, Chris Atkins, posed as a far-right journalist at the Reform Conference and got thrown out for asking difficult questions about Farage's corruption scandal @scatatkins.bsky.social
