This man is a threat to our democracy. He backs violence and extremism.

Blaming a group of people for the awful actions of an individual leads us to a very dark place.

Musk, Lowe, Farage, Robinson - these men don't give a shit about this country, they want to rip us apart.

Leonard Cohen and Sonny Rollins playing “Who By Fire” on NBC’s one of a kind Nightmusic (1989). We have the late Hal Wilner and David Sanborn to thank for dreaming up and producing the greatest music show that’s ever been on tv.

Brexit increasingly resembles a form of necropolitics through which the will of the living is outweighed by the will of the dead

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

Keir Starmer is correct about the need to heal divisions.

But to equate protest of the genocide in Gaza with the hate march led by Tommy Robinson is a disgrace.

If Starmer thinks this is how we heal divisions it shows he hasn't begun to understand the problem.

Lewisham is another almost unbelievable result.

Labour has held EVERY councillor seat since 2018: 54 out of 54. In 2014, they held 53 out of 54, with a sole Green.

Today the Greens took control, winning 40 councillors.

Labour has held Lewisham for 55 YEARS.

No more.

His closest aide sentenced to 10.5 years for spying for the Russians. Failing to disclose £5m donation and how he bought a house in Clacton. A decade of school antisemitism and racism. Cavorting with Neo Nazis and planning mass deportations. What is the media love about Farage?

Philadelphia musician Gregg Foreman has died at 53. He fronted 1990s indie rock band The Delta 72 whose music fused post-punk with 1960s British Invasion R&B. Foreman would later play with Cat Power. The Delta 72 live in 1997. #RIPGreggForeman https://t.co/djKkCdVNH5

The Greens should promise war crimes trials of our leaders over Iran and Gaza. The prospect of holding these lying conniving evil bastards to account would be hugely politically galvanizing, restoring democratic accountability and the fear politicians ought to have of the public.

This is a life and death story for the UK – so why is it being brushed under the carpet?

My column on the headline you probably haven't heard, yet which affects you, your family and friends.

Starmer must withdraw permission for the US to use UK bases to launch airstrikes on Iran and parliament must be given a vote on any UK involvement.

Few people knew Paul Conroy (@reflextv) had a successful career in the music industry after leaving the army and before becoming a war photographer.

He was the sound engineer on one of the biggest hits of 1988 in his native Liverpool, so enjoy, for him:

🚩🚩🚩Newly released Bannon–Epstein messages (2017–19) show Epstein was giving daily strategic advice to Steve Bannon while Bannon and Farage were building a transatlantic far-right project.

Epstein wasn’t just a social acquaintance. He was in the room, digitally, for the construction of modern populism.

Farage’s partner, Laure Ferrari, literally co-founded the Brussels organisation (“The Movement”) that Bannon used to build a European nationalist network.

Who helped shape the money structure and the logistics? 👉Jeffrey Epstein.

Epstein advised Bannon on:
– how to avoid FARA disclosure
– how to use 501(c)(4) dark-money non-profits
– how to shield political operatives with media shells
– how to keep funding “opaque”
– how to structure a European revolution without legal exposure

This was not small talk.
This was political engineering.

Bannon told Epstein he was working with:
“Nigel, Boris and Rees-Mogg… the guys are trying to move on May today/tomorrow.”

This places Epstein inside the communications chain of the plot to topple Theresa May, while Brexit was at its most volatile.

Epstein also:
– Offered Bannon the use of his island and homes for political strategy
– Arranged accommodation, flights and meetings
– Critiqued Bannon’s media appearances
– Acted as a sounding board on Europe, Salvini, Le Pen’s allies and the gilets jaunes

He was not a spectator.
He was an influencer.

In other words:
🔹 Mandelson: embarrassing proximity.
🔹 Farage: political collaboration through Bannon.

Farage wasn’t merely around the Epstein orbit. He was inside a political machine Epstein helped shape.

And look at the substance:

– Bannon called Farage “the face” of the European far-right project
– Farage’s partner built the Brussels shell
– Farage brokered the meeting that handed it to Bannon
– Epstein provided the dark-money blueprint

This is not gossip.
This is architecture.

Farage sells himself as a man who “took on the elites”. Yet the newly revealed truth is far darker:

His Brexit project was intertwined with 👉Bannon, Epstein, US dark-money networks, Salvini, Le Pen’s bloc, and the hardest edge of the global far right.

Brexit was never anti-establishment.
It was never grassroots. It was never patriotic.

It was a transnational authoritarian project, backed by billionaires, extremists, and a convicted sex offender with global influence.

And Farage was right at the centre of it.

If Mandelson had emails showing Epstein advising him on political strategy, funding routes and foreign influence operations, the country would erupt.

Farage has exactly that except worse.
Because the stakes were Brexit and the reshaping of Europe.

And that truth is finally out 💥
