It might be time to stop treating Farage as if he's some sort of special confidante of Trump. The human skid mark hasn't got a clue what's going on in the White House, as the Chagos situation demonstrated, or what on earth Trump will do next.

Sounds a lot like the K bump he did before going on stage has got right on top of him. Also, the hat & dark glasses combo makes him look like 'dangle-the-baby-from-the balcony' era Michael Jackson - had his body been found floating in a lake after three days.

So, Farage is a spokesperson for Trump and Trump is a spokesperson for Putin. It’s, quite ironically, like a game of Russian dolls. Except instead of dolls they’re ugly treacherous cunts.

A bit of good news: NHS England hospital waiting list falls for 4th month in row. The lowest figures since April 2023. Considering the “quademic” and winter months, this is an achievement for both the NHS and Labour government. So it’ll obviously be all over the news, right?

Image sent straight to hospital for review. 6pm, received report and all clear from Telederm dept. And this is what Farage and Reform want to bin.

The most frustrating thing about continuing failure to skewer Farage is that his grasp of detail is non-existent. It’s why he gets petulant when exposed to even mildly decent questions. Interviewers just need to zone in on one element of the bullshit & interrogate it until his ignorance is exposed.

The level of democracy enjoyed by the average citizen in 2022 regressed to 1986 levels. 72 % of the world's population, 5.7 billion people, were living under authoritarian rule. It didn’t occur overnight and happened entirely by design, forcefully instigated by a powerful, rich, hard right elite.

Really struck today by how many of the people most responsible for the Brexit shitshow were actively rewarded for their stupidity/dishonesty. Knighthoods, Damehoods, peerages, newspaper columns, seats in the House of Commons… It’s a mark of how deep the rot has gone into the fabric of our society.
