The thing is Russ.. AI produced crowds for Reform are the same as BBC / MSM journalists.. they don’t ask any awkward questions or challenge them on their back of a fag packet policies 🤷🏼‍♂️

Who Funds Nigel Farage? Mapping His Millions Reform UK leader Nigel Farage is the highest-paid Member of Parliament. In less than two years as the MP for Clacton, Farage has racked up £2 million in personal income and gifts, on top of his £94,00...

With Farage making a shed load of money from bitcoin and an assortment of weird companies, we’ve launched a map and live tracker of his income 👇🏻👇🏻

In a nutshell. 😊

Netanyahu has removed 40 thousand homes in Lebanon in less than a month . This war criminal needs to be brought to final Justice.

We've now raised £50,000.

Anything you can spare, will go towards challenging this Labour Government and taking the fight to Reform.

And most importantly - to creating the hopeful alternative.

This is not the society I support. You can judge our country on how we treat fellow citizens. It’s our duty to protect children, pensioners, disabled, sick, unemployed and even the able and the workers… the fit and able are tomorrows sick when worn down.

More than 21,000 jobs are due to be cut in the NHS to cover a £1.1bn deficit.

All while £2.5bn per year extra is given to the Private Sector.

And then of course they will 'need' to give more money to the Private Sector, who do about 60% of the work, Pound for Pound vs the NHS.

👀 David Cameron has been regularly helping Kemi Badenoch with PMQs prep, I’m told

This is an extraordinary story they deserves much more airtime. Shocking in so many ways. Share widely.

Amazon will pay $20.5 million to settle allegations that two of its Oregon data centers helped contaminate groundwater.

This is exactly why communities across the country are organizing to stop data centers — and winning.

When Labour next tell you there is no money left and that's why they can't help people to heat their homes, show them this.
