The story of Tether, the company promoted by @Nigel_Farage and that represents most of his largest donor's wealth, inevitably touches Epstein. Their founder, Brock Pierce, has a disturbing link to paedophiles.
But hey, grooming gangs and all.

Nuclear power is the most expensive way to make electricity - the slowest, most expensive and dangerous option we have. Always over budget and out of time - can’t say I’m unhappy to see the EA enforce nature protection rather than step aside for this man made disaster. We don’t need nuclear energy to achieve energy independence and 100% green on the grid. A delay to Hinkley matters very little in my view - the chances of it ever landing in 2030 were always slim.

Nigel Farage explicitly and repeatedly claimed in late 2024 and early 2025 interviews (after his election as MP for Clacton) that he had bought a house in Clacton.

To Sky News (November 2024): “I’ve just exchanged contracts on the house that I’ll be living there in – is that good enough?… I’ve bought a house in Clacton. What more do you want me to do?”

To LBC (January 2025): He stated he had bought a house in Clacton, adding details about being seen out shopping locally.

The truth, widely reported in the 'mainstream media', is that the £885,000–£900,000 detached house in Frinton-on-Sea (part of the Clacton constituency) was purchased outright in November 2024 solely in the name of his partner, Laure Ferrari.

Land Registry documents list her as the sole owner; Farage has no legal or financial stake in it.

In September 2025, after the discrepancy was highlighted, Farage admitted he was wrong to phrase it that way.

Phrase it that way?

This was not media distortion of his words—the claims he made are on record in multiple interviews, and he later acknowledged the inaccuracy.

He lied. Repeatedly. And now the pathetic coward is hiding from scrutiny and accountability.

Here are several documented cases where Nigel Farage made claims that were proven false, misleading, or which he later admitted were wrong (beyond the Clacton house example). all of which the 'mainstream media' highlighted:

1. £350 million a week to the #NHS

Farage and the Leave campaign prominently featured the claim that the UK sent £350m a week to the EU, which could go to the NHS instead (on the famous battle bus and posters).

Reality: This was the gross figure before the UK rebate and other receipts; the net was around £250m or less. Post-referendum, Farage distanced himself, calling it “a mistake” and saying “I would never have made that claim.” He noted it wasn’t his advert but had not openly condemned it during the campaign

2. Migrants eating swans in Royal Parks (2025)

Farage claimed on LBC that “swans were being eaten in Royal Parks” and carp taken from ponds by migrants from “different cultures.”

Reality: The Royal Parks authority stated there were no reported incidents of people killing or eating swans in the eight Royal Parks. Police and fact-checkers found no supporting evidence for the specific claim.

3. Shoplifting up to £200 goes unpunished (repeated, e.g. 2024–2025)

Farage claimed you can shoplift up to £200 before prosecution.

Reality: False. There is no such £200 threshold; prosecutions occur for far smaller amounts, and police/courts have handled many cases below that figure.

4. 2.4 million people “settled” in the UK in two years (2024)

Farage stated 2.4 million had settled.

Reality: Gross arrivals were around that, but many were temporary (students, workers on contracts). Net migration was far lower. Not all “settled.”

5. Local election candidates shouting “Allahu Akbar” and “we are coming to get you” (2024)

Farage claimed this happened in Leeds, Burnley, Bradford, etc.

Reality: One candidate in Leeds did say “Allahu Akbar” (a common celebratory phrase) and made Gaza comments (later apologised for). No evidence for the other locations or the “we are coming to get you” threat.

6. Crime statistics:

Farage has repeatedly claimed police-recorded crime shows rises contradicting official falls; fact-checks often note selective use or context missing (e.g., reporting changes, post-pandemic effects).

7. Immigration/economy claims:

Multiple fact-checks on net migration impacts, housing needs, and economic comparisons to the EU have been rated misleading or false in presentation.

Paul Marshall got a good return on the £100K donation to Vote Leave.
@michaelgove how much money did Marshall Wace make after the referendum?
Marshall Wace, earned roughly $1.1 billion during the six trading days immediately following the 2016 UK referendum to leave the EU.

This week the most advanced AI model on the planet got switched off by a foreign government. British researchers were studying it. British companies were testing it. British hospitals were piloting it. Not any more.

This isn't an AI story. It's the story of every industry we used to lead.

Britain has some of the best AI talent in the world. DeepMind was built here. Our AI Safety Institute writes the rules other countries follow. We have the researchers, the universities, the standards.

What we don't have is the power stations to run the data centres, the planning system to build them, or the industrial base to make the chips. So the work happens here and the value lands somewhere else. We invent. Others build. Others decide. Then we read about it on Saturday morning.

Same story as the kit our soldiers don't have. Same story as the factories we used to.

I spent nine months in government making this argument inside the room. I'll make it louder from outside.

He is neither, of course. He is a run-of-the-mill “anti-woke” pundit making a transition from a Murdoch sinecure to an Ellison sinecure.

[ChrisO_wiki @ChrisO_wiki]

This puts Musk and Trump slightly behind Hitler and well above Stalin, Pol Pot, and Assad in terms of deaths caused by their actions. DOGE was deadlier than the Rwandan Genocide and is on course to have killed 30 times more people than the Ukraine War.

Russian diplomatic facilities in Czechia has been serving as a platform for running intelligence assets in Germany. Historically, Russian Consulate in Karlovy Vary was the primary hub, but since it was closed down by Czech authorities in 2022, Russian Embassy in Prague is the primary headquarters for Russian intelligence operations.

Since Czech government expelled large majority of Russian diplomati personnel from Czech territory since 2021, Russian Embassy in Prague is forced to operate in downsized scope of staff, which limits Russian intelligence capabilities.

AfD is a prime target of Russian intelligence activity, so it makes perfect sense for AfD Saxony Chairman to be invited to Russian Embassy Prague.

Russian intelligence definitely targets AfD leadership with influence operations, often called active measures under traditional KGB terminology. The open question is if some of those AfD leaders serve Russian interests as useful idiots or willing agents of influence, but the overal outcome is clear - if a German (or other European) politician assists Russian geopolitical objectives, he or she is actively aiding a terrorist regime which kills hundreds of thousands Europeans in Ukraine.

This story first kicked off by @lukas_prchal of @enkocz who caught the AfD Saxoxy Chairman in front of Russian Embassy in Prague.

Incredible. Scotland puts a wind turbine near Trump’s golf course in Aberdeen 20 years ago. He sues and loses. Then his resulting hatred of wind turbines now ends up with the US Secretaries of Defense & Interior fabricating absurd lies to justify killing wind energy in the US.

[Sam Freedman @Samfr]

It really isn't great that both the US and Russia are run by delusional old men.

[EUvsDisinfo @EUvsDisinfo]

The Kremlin continues to portray legitimate Ukrainian strikes on Russian military infrastructure as ‘terrorism’. The accusation rings hollow coming from a regime that has spent the past 1,570 days carrying out brutal, indiscriminate strikes against Ukrainian civilians and civilian infrastructure.

They are not security zones. They are occupied territory. (Also they will not bring Israelis security as history has shown time and time again)

Genocide apologists don’t like it when they’re called out for their obvious genocide apologias. Fox has spent years justifying the Israeli military’s horrific actions in Gaza. History will judge him harshly.

The investment of Trump's son-in-law in a proposed 10,000-bed resort near a protected wildlife area that’s home to flamingos, turtles and one of Europe’s most pristine river deltas ignited Albania's biggest popular protests in recent history. https://t.co/TT21dAz5Yw

Another day, another @JeremyVineOn5 running with another #MillbankTower @DailyMail storyline. Knowingly, misrepresenting the facts as always and stirring the hate pot some more. Still no such headlines. No 'special' discussion on any of these 👇
