If you have a spare 3 mins and 45 secs today, watch this fantastic grilling by Sally Nugent on BBC Breakfast.
The very first time I've seen Farage questioned properly about his £5M bung, and it's fair to say, he totally fluffed it.
There are points when you can see Farage tremble and even accuse the BBC of putting him in danger. 🤦♂️
It was for security. It was for cars. Nobody cares. It's no one's business. He won't tell us. DANGER!
At one point, he let slip that the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards may 'disagree' with him on the rules around donations.
He knows he's going to be found guilty on this one. He's in trouble, and his face gave it away gloriously.
Top hats off to Sally Nugent. Stellar work. 👏
If Keir Starmer does resign, history will look back on his reign and scratch its head as to why the hell he was so hated.
On paper, he's probably delivered more to working British people in such a short time than any PM for decades.
After inheriting an absolute mess: NHS waiting lists fallen. Worker's rights improved. Rail operators nationalised. Improved relations with EU and improved UK's global reputation. Removed non-dom tax status. Halved childcare costs. Boosted state pensions. Lowest homicide rate in 50 years. Lifted 550k children out of poverty. Immigration vastly reduced.
We are in the age of billionaire funded misinformation, whose sole purpose is to topple democratically elected leaders, and insert leadership that favours the wealthy elites over the working people. Looks like the game plan is working...
@Johnny__Luk You need to get over it! You lost- people of MK didn’t want you- find a new career and work hard. People of MK STILL do not want you. You are looking foolish - time away is what you need. Take some time out out and enjoy 3 labour MPs in MK. #johnnybequiet
@adamfmk4@Ben_Everitt @matthew_barber Interesting that someone vandalising something does it in a high vis top- or is it so the camera can pick them up! Tories will do anything to create a narrative- desperate Tories would stoop to the lowest point to support that narrative.
@Ben_Everitt Some people don’t have somewhere to call home. You have two- one of which we pay for. What was it 39k last year? Happy to fleece the system but doesn’t want others to have access to houses.
@Ben_Everitt I have no doubt you have been an active MP for Olney- however North MK is more than Olney and you have neglected most other parts. When you are voted out- how quickly do we stop paying for your unnecessary second home?
Left: Rishi Sunak says Birmingham council is bankrupt because of Labour
Right: Since 2010 the Conservative party have cut funding to Birmingham council by 60% in real terms
The real reason why so many councils in the UK are going bankrupt is because since 2010, the Conservative party has underfunded councils, which has reduced local services, and resulted in council tax rises, as councils desperately try to keep basic services functioning
So @michaelgove has reportedly told Tory HQ staff they must double down on the £2000 Labour tax lie because they showed with the £350bn for the NHS Brexit lie that the more a lie is talked about the better it is for the campaign. This is a level of cynicism and political amorality shocking even by their standards. But it is a consequence of the failure of politics and media to hold liars properly to account. It is the normalisation of lies thanks to Brexit and Johnson and the right wing rags that Farage thinks he can get away with the economically illiterate rubbish he produced yesterday. Vote Labour Get Labour. Give these Tories a beating they will never forget
Well done Brian Cox for raising the elephant in the room that most politicians are too terrified to mention in this election - the catastrophic damage which has been inflicted & continues to be inflicted on the UK economy by Brexit
BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg almost fell off her chair
