New #EpsteinFiles @bylinetimes.bsky.social investigation: how Steve Bannon’s planned “European revolution” ran through Nigel Farage’s network – with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein quietly helping in the background. 🧵 1/12

Brexit detonated our economy and our politics. Since then, our country seems to have lost its mind, veering off to the right, reawakening the racism genie, ruining itself to try to hide the dishonesty and snowballing damage of it all.
And now Farage could be PM ffs.
Mindblowing self-inflicted idiocy
Farage, Boris Johnson & Rees-Mogg apparently plotting assaults on UK democracy with Bannon, who was reporting back to Epstein. Nothing to see here, newspaper folk…

Thorough piece on Farage’s close colleague and friend Nathan Gill and the Kremlin cash he took
www.theguardian.com/news/ng-inte...
Farage is asked about another two of his MEPs, who made the same pro-Russia statements that Nathan Gill has now pled guilty to being bribed to make.
"Opinions are opinions."
Farage's defence seems to be that they arrived at those views independently and it has nowt to do with him.
Hmm. 🤔 ~AA
COINCIDENCE CORNER 3 October: The Observer contacts Reform UK leader Nigel Farage for comment over why he has not updated his register of interests since May, despite continuing to work second jobs and parliamentary rules requiring interests be declared within 28 days. A spokesperson for Farage responds: “All declarations have been made for any earnings outside of Parliament.” 3 October: Farage registers more than £120,000 of earnings, from making speeches in May and June and presenting shows on GB News in July and August, which he received more than 28 days earlier (ie before 5 September) – meaning he is in breach of parliamentary rules.
Nigel Farage has, very clearly, broken parliamentary rules. Will any journalists challenge him on it? Via Private Eye
"The government have actively avoided looking for evidence Russia interfered."
The Intelligence & Security Committee's Stewart Hosie said the government didn't investigate alleged Russian interference in the Brexit vote, and no one wanted to touch this "with a ten-foot pole".

“Here Farage is, in Gill’s office, with Voloshyn’s wife Nadia, on the day Gill makes an intervention on behalf of Medvedchuk’s channels, with an employee of one of those channels, whose husband started bribing Gill to make these statements 6 days earlier”

Who wants to see a video of Nigel Farage calling Nathan Gill a “decent, honourable man”?
In 2014, Nigel Farage was parroting the same Russian propaganda lies as Nathan Gill. Are we really to suppose that this was just a coincidence?
1/ This speech made by Farage in September 2014, after Russia's first invasion of Ukraine, is a stream of Russian propaganda lies that could have come from Lavrov's mouth.
It would be terribly unfortunate if this got shared absolutely everywhere.
Reform’s Russia connections are a danger to our national security.
It’s time for a public inquiry. 🔥
Really, Reform UK? THIS is what you're going with? That this man, who served as an MEP next to Nigel Farage for years and was made leader of your party in Wales by current deputy, Richard Tice, is just "one of tens of thousands of people Nigel meets on an annual basis"?~AA
Do it!!
This tweet has been doing the rounds on Twitter now that Nathan Gill has pleaded guilty.
If only someone had tried to investigate UKIP & Russian interference 🧐
There’s another timeline where the Guardian supported me, doubled down on the investigation & I look 5 years younger ..
So to recap:
🟣Farage made Gill Welsh UKIP leader
🟣Gill left UKIP 2 days after Farage and has admitted to his first count of Russian bribery THE SAME DAY
💎Gill joined Brexit party and re-elected to Brexit Party during the bribes period
💎Gill made Welsh Reform UK leader

Nathan Gill is no fringe politician.
He was the leader of the Reform Party and before that UKIP in Wales.
A Brexit Party MEP.
A friend and ally of Nigel Farage, who in 2016 called him:
"terrific," and "as honest as the day is long."
This is a MASSIVE story

Vain, stupid, bigoted, shallow, crass, ignorant, and so, so unqualified, in every way. America’s shame and humiliation on the world stage, for everyone to see. Russia, China, Iran etc must be quietly pinching themselves at this man’s sabotage of America; victims of oppression worldwide in despair.
So much time having to be given on the news to medical experts saying do not listen to what Trump said. Perhaps channels should stop broadcasting Trump live and wait for approval from someone with a functioning brain first.
Useful reminder from Peter Kellner on the problems we refuse to acknowledge are getting better, and the politics of hopelessness that this breeds
