Nigel Farage Has Personally Accepted £675,000 from Foreign Sources Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has accepted more than half a million pounds from foreign companies, governments, and donors while serving as an MP, DeSmog can reveal. Since July 2024, when he was elect...

“Farage rarely turns up to do his actual job. Yet he finds time to jet off around the world on his donor’s private plane and trouser half a million quid while families struggle. Reform are not on your side. They’re just in it for themselves”

It’s so obvious, it hurts.

So of course, children need to be micromanaged that’s the purpose of education. To get the population accustomed to the idea that they had very little personal freedom. The staff two as workers in that situation also have very little personal freedom. Their constraints are different to the children

Of course, but that would require schools to be run by local communities for the local communities, where local people have control and schools and education was run for the betterment of the population rather than for a small subset.

Not sure even Starmer would have fucked up Brexshit with a referendum.

There is no offer at the moment so we are stuck but the general widespread view is he is a useless PM. An avowed Zionist which places him rather low down on understanding international law sadly. But hes not BJ or NF
