Nigel Farage has been wrong about everything for over two decades. Every stupid notion he has backed and promoted in that time has dragged this nation to the very sewer and he should be a national disgrace - not afforded interviews on the BBC #farageriots
A 77yr old retired teacher was sentenced to 20 mnths in prison for a Just Stop Oil protest on the M25
She has just been returned to prison (over Xmas) because deep vein thrombosis means an electronic tag can’t be strapped to her leg.
Make sense of that.

No amount of trolling will break my resolve to call out Brexit for what it is, a galactically stupid, monumentally treacherous act of unpatriotic, national self harm, voted for by the gullible, the bigots, racists and xenophobes. I will never accept, never forgive, never move on.
Given we're all supossed to be frothing at the mouth over a potential lie on Rachel Reeve's CV...
Might I remind you of these absoute whoppers from Ian Duncan Smith...
Isn’t it interesting that the same people who are viscerally opposed to striking nurses, junior doctors and train drivers are egging on the farmer protests?
"Inheritance tax relief" introduced in 1984 turned "owning agricultural land into having a licence to avoid inheritance tax," Professor Paul Cheshire tells #PoliticsLive
It led to a "four-fold increase in the price of agricultural land", he adds

Investors (non-farmers) were responsible for 56% of UK farmland purchases last year. (Strutt & Parker)
Farmers are being squeezed out.
Not by IHT, but by tax-dodgers.
Those same tax-dodgers who are now supported by, er, farmers.
Jeez. Boris Johnson is now on French radio saying “We forget all this now because it was two or three years ago but when we had the pandemic, thanks to Brexit we had the chance to do the vaccinations in England much earlier”
I’ve debunked this absolute boll**** many times👇

@mrjamesob It's definitely refreshing on BSKY not have a timeline deliberately full of people I would cross the road to avoid. It's true there's nothing like healthy debate. X is nothing like healthy debate.
It's bizarre isn't it. Dubai has no income tax, usually no CGT, no inheritance tax and 5% VAT. Surely if you wanted to live there for tax reasons you would have done it already? Does a rise in CGT on shares and IHT on farmland and pensions really tip the balance?
Dear BBC, please do not call anti-vaxxers “vaccine sceptics”. It implies there exists doubt about vaccines. 70-odd years ago we had large numbers of people paralysed or in iron lungs. We don’t see that today and for that we can thank the Salk vaccine.
A quick checklist of RFKjr beliefs as he's appointed US Health Secretary.
Trump says: "He's going to help make America healthy again."
What do you think?
Take it from the guy who buys more power than anyone else in the country: green energy is cheaper than fossil fuels.
To get those savings onto people’s bills, we need market reform. @g__j#bbcqt@bbcquestiontime
Against unimaginably stiff competition, this is the worst appointment of the lot. People will die if the dangerous nonsense espoused by this crank anti-vaxxer becomes public policy.
