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 👇🏻👇🏻

Hard to truly grasp the level of public support is right now. I would guess that there’s currently broad support for the protest. However I passed 6 empty petrol stations in Kerry yesterday and quite a a few ships docked outside Dublin port.

O’ Connell street earlier this evening. One of many arteries at a complete standstill.

Whatever happens between the Irish Government and the fuel protesters one thing is becoming clear. I think Ireland is about to see a powerful new political force along the lines of the European and UK far right. Just like we’ve seen elsewhere the incumbent parties are unprepared for what’s to come.

Fuel prices up to insane levels and petrol stations are now running out of fuel.

Thank you Donald J. Trump 🇺🇸🫠

Practically nobody spoke to me about the religious repression but the pain was clearly implicit in their silence.

The only exception were the few Mullah’s I encountered who genuinely seemed like a bunch of complete wankers.

Every hotel I stayed in I was invited to weddings, brought to meet families, and even introduced to a famous Persian TV star who was filming nearby.

I was lucky enough to visit Iran back in
08. Travelled overland from Tabriz, Tehran, Esfahan, Bam and into Zahedan in the East.

From the minute I crossed the border I was met with warmth, curiosity, and wonder. Not once did I feel threatened or unwelcome.

It can certainly be read as a love letter to Putin — Maria Popova has a point as usual — but whatever happens the expression of a genocidal wish by the president of the United States is a horror we will never live down.

These things only work when people choose to go along. If we deny that such a thing is possible we invite it. When we think it through and talk about it we deter it. (11/17)

Fuck me

Let me get this straight… According to Badenoch the UK is in a war with Iran yet Trump says the US isn’t engaged in a war with Iran. Just a military opp or something.

Beautiful ✊🏻☘️🚀

Thank God Starmer is in charge, really. If it had been any of his immediate predecessors, we'd currently be at war with Iran, playing lapdog to a deranged US administration, unable to say what we were doing or why.

This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.

Doubt much of the electorate have noticed but the mess Badenoch and Farage have got into over Iran shows just how beatable they are.

Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage want Britain to blindly follow Trump into this illegal war, even though the President has no plan for what comes next.

There is nothing patriotic about outsourcing Britain’s foreign policy to Donald Trump.

They'll cheer on the war then complain about the refugees it'll create.
