This is absolutely astounding if accurate. Contemporary of Farage at Dulwich College says Nigel and his minions would hang around outside Jewish prayers. ‘It’s not banter if you aren’t friends’. Way way too many questions about this man. Not PM material.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the

BP to scrap paid rest breaks and most bank holiday bonuses for forecourt staff. Changes to employee benefits would reduced take-home pay by at least 6.25%. Would exec pay and dividends be cut? No chance. Workers always squeezed. Back to Victorian times. https://t.co/njU6nviajA

🚨 Newsflash! Disability is not a competition! 🥇 We're not in the olympics. 🌀 Your suffering is still valid regardless if someone has it worse than you. 🌀 Don't dismiss someone's suffering because "It's not as bad as mine." 🌀 This is exactly what the government wants:

When DWP told us about transitional protection they neglected to warn anyone that migrating to #UniversalCredit could result in higher council tax bills. This inadequate answer to @johnmcdonnellMP's question demonstrates they knew all along. https://t.co/abWjqIeRzZ

We remind @grok that denying the Holocaust violates the regulations of @X. SS documents, survivor and witness testimonies, as well as photographs taken by the resistance, provide unequivocal evidence that these were gas chambers where people were murdered en masse with Zyklon B.

We must stop demonising welfare recipients. The idea that disabled people are faking it or struggling families are all potential fraudsters. This logic punishes people for life’s challenges - we need a welfare state that helps people back on their feet, not kicks them down.

Farage asked about two more 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's nowt to do with him.🤔~AA
