[Parody Nigel Farage @Parody_PM]

I proudly boasted about having claimed "zero personal expenses". Which is not surprising when you consider that there is no such thing as 'personal expenses' for MPs, so nobody has claimed any. But I have claimed over £150k in office expenses.

If hypocrisy was a person, it would be Robert Jenrick.

He campaigned and won his seat on the Tory manifesto.

Lost the leadership race.

Immediately defected to Reform.

Now sits on TalkTV openly slagging off the exact same manifesto that got him elected, while still refusing to give his constituents a by-election.

“I want a general election!” he demands, from the safety of the seat he won as a Tory and then sold out.

Mary asked the right question. The answer is obvious:

you’re a shameless, self-serving fraud with the principles of a sewer rat and the spine of a chocolate teapot.

How dare you accuse Tommy Robinson of doing coke when he is sniffing, licking his lips, has veins bulging out his head and wiping his nose every 5 seconds.

Clearly signs of hayfever.

Unsurprisingly, Kwasi Kwarteng is ok with Kemi Badenoch's insults at PMQs yesterday

A reminder, if any were needed, of the gutter politics which now defines the Conservative party - and I say that as a former Conservative voter, how tragic and sad

[Mukhtar @I_amMukhtar]

All he does is lie, and he knows his gullible supporters are too lazy to even do a basic Google search. He has brainwashed them into ignoring their own eyes and dismissing anything critical of him as lies.

[Labour Press @labourpress]

Why did @Nigel_Farage try to block plans that might leave his billionaire crypto mate out of pocket after he handed him £5 million?

Labour Chair @annaturley has asked the Financial Conduct Authority to investigate 👇

🚨 Tommy Robinson MISLEADS viewers about his mortgage fraud conviction.

Tommy tells Karl Stefanovic that the authorities "got members of my family for tax and things like this" and that he pleaded guilty to protect them.

He never mentions that the case was actually about a mortgage fraud conspiracy involving fake payslips, false income information and hundreds of thousands of pounds in fraudulent mortgages.

Tommy pleaded guilty.

The sentencing judge described him as the "instigator, if not the architect" of some of the frauds and said the scheme involved "significant forward planning."

This wasn't a case of being pursued over "tax and things like this." It was a serious fraud case that resulted in multiple convictions.

Quite a different story.

Jo Cox was assassinated on our streets by a white supremacist terrorist radicalised by the toxic hate he heard daily.

Today Kemi badenoch brazenly called her fellow MPs “traitors” in Parliament, forcing the Speaker to call her to order for this disgrace.

This is reckless. This is classless. This is utterly mannerless. Utterly disgusting inflammatory garbage

[Mukhtar @I_amMukhtar]

Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

[Socialist Opera Singer @OperaSocialist]

It's frankly insulting for the multi-millionaire Jeremy Hunt to want to end the triple lock when he "forgot" he bought 7 luxury apartments, has a ministerial and an MP pension plus a hefty severance payment for losing the election.

Tories have no shame.

[Rachel Gilmour, MP for Tiverton & Minehead @RachelGilmourLD]

She has let her Party and herself down today.

Very often MPs disagree with each other. However I have never witnessed such graceless personal abusive attacks as we saw during PMQs from The Leader of The Opposition who is not worthy of her title Right Honourable.

[Stephen King @StephenKing]

It will be at least 40 years before our loved and lovely America recovers from the wounds this selfish, stupid, and ego-driven man has inflicted. That it will recover seems certain to me, but it will leave scars.

[The Tennessee Holler @TheTNHoller]

“100% pure bullshit”

🤥 Trump claims “thugs” cut a 300 foot slice of the pool bottom — so @Acosta went to see for himself… and confirmed what every person on Earth already knows. Trump is the vandal.

[John Sweeney @johnsweeneyroar]

Bloody well done @EdwardJDavey

[GBC @GBC_Press]

🚨 BREAKING:

​World-famous US rapper Eminem:

"Donald Trump is a narcissist who uses his power to spread hatred and racism, and he could drag America into a nuclear disaster. You're either with him or with me, because it's impossible to be on both sides."

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

2026: Kwasi Kwarteng on GMB, "You've got to present a sense of professionalism at all times if you're in an important job"

2022: Kwasi Kwarteng was Chancellor when he was smiling at the Queen's funeral, but hey, at least he was dressed in a suit 🤷‍♂️

[Dan Neidle @DanNeidle]

Last year, Govt won a £122m judgment against Douglas Barrowman and Michelle Mone's company PPE Medpro, for supplying defective PPE

The company had been emptied of cash and collapsed

Now its liquidators are suing Barrowman, Mone and associated companies personally

Short 🧵

[Dannyoh @dannyoh337]

If Angela Rayner had to resign over 40k undeclared, there’s no reason Nigel farage should still be an MP with £5M undeclared. Resign now.
