It’s telling that Farage chose this as his first target after winning a bunch of elections. He’s a pub bore with a bunch of nasty resentments and no serious ideas of how to fix the country

The USDA has withdrawn a plan to impose stronger safety regulations limiting salmonella levels in raw poultry. Who was the biggest donor to Trump's inauguration fund? Pilgrim’s Pride — one of the largest chicken processors in the country. See how this works?

Reform wants to scrap green policies and turbocharge fossil fuel production. Now, the party's treasurer Nick Candy has said he's trying to raise millions from oil & gas executives. Farage's outfit is now effectively a wing of the fossil fuel industry

The right-wing press has spread a load of baseless falsehoods about heat pumps. That’s the main reason why the technology is politically ‘controversial’. By banning Evan Davis from doing a podcast about heat pumps, the BBC is dancing to the tune of people pushing out blatant misinformation
