Some notes on my work ethic:
-I last voted in Parliament on 18 March, so I haven’t done my job for ten weeks.
-I’ve never held any face-to-face constituency surgeries, despite apparently having £5 million to spend on security.
-I refuse to do interviews or face press scrutiny of any sort.
-when I was in the European Parliament I had the 4th worst attendance record out of 748 MEPs.
-although I did manage to turn up to vote AGAINST plans to tackle Russian misinformation.
-I was on the Fisheries Committee but I only turned up to ONE out of 42 meetings.
-but I will of course be taking my £73,000 EU pension.
Vote Reform, get lazy, grifting, self-serving sacks of shit.
Nigel Farage is now saying the £5M was given to him unconditionally as a reward for campaigning for Brexit. It's funny how he’s no longer calling it “security” now that he might have to show the receipts.
“Arsenal have been blocking the opponent’s goalkeeper all season long, they would NEVER be on top of the league if we disallow these goals!”
Peter Schmeichel thank you for calling them out. have your cheating title VARSENAL. 👏
Here are the facts as laid down by Derbyshire:
1) Farage says he won’t run
2) crypto billionaire pays him £5mill
3) Farage U-turns and runs
4) Farage hides the donation
5) Farage announces if he wins the election he will slash capital gains tax for crypto firms
Same old same old
This is unbelievable. Chris Mason reporting on the Farage £5m donation and doesn't mention the rule that new MPs must report all donations in the 12 months prior to being elected. Unbelievable.
So it turns out we weren’t gaslighting ourselves after all. Turns out John McAndrew is a senior BBC executive who was appointed Director of News Programmes in 2022. He previously worked at the marketing arm of Reform UK, GB News as an editorial director.
Badenoch leaning very heavily into Mandelson’s alleged links to Russia but she was a Tory MP when her then boss, Boris Johnson, put the son of an actual KGB agent into the House of Lords and she said the grand total of fuck all about it

Conservative MP Edward Leigh thinks disabled people and pensioners cost too much.
He claims £2350 to pay his Council Tax, and £2500 to pay his energy bills every year
But he isn't disabled or a pensioner, he is on £94,000
He should pay his self and cut the bloody benefit costs
@JTTcup@ScottFish24 Signed up and donated. Shout if you need evidence of donation. Whatever you do, you work is great and keep it going. Absolutely phenomenal what you have achieved
What time is Chris Mason investigating Richard Tice and his company breaking tax law plus Farage rigging a raffle to pay the energy bills of his mates?

Interesting that in the Everton points deduction verdict the Premier League said “A financial penalty for a club that enjoys the support of a wealthy owner is not a sufficient penalty” and that “the requirements of deterrence, vindication of compliant clubs, and the protection of the integrity of the sport demand a sporting sanction in the form of a points deduction’.
Presumably the Chelsea fine (which ultimately is just a deduction from what billion dollar Clearlake will pay to billionaire Abramovich from the £150m held back at the deal date) is then neither punishment, a deterrent or protecting the integrity of the sport?
If I was an Everton or Forest fan would not be happy with this outcome.
