Henry Nowak’s family have lost their son and brother in the most appalling circumstances.

Nigel Farage is exploiting this tragedy to create grievance and division.

It’s completely unforgivable.

Economist Mariana Mazzucato says Brexit led to businesses leaving the UK, shrank market opportunities and damaged investment.

She tells The Fourcast that Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson have still not been held accountable for what she calls one of the country's biggest economic mistakes.

Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson have both denied lying to the public.

Angela Rayner - £40k underpaid stamp duty - repaid. Lost jobs in Cabinet and Dep. PM.

Peter Murrell - £400k theft from SNP - going to prison

Huge coverage of both

Nigel Farage - £5m undeclared bung (possibly more) - goes to ground for a month.

Media coverage? You judge.

THIS IS THE MAN WHO IS TRYING TO AVOID £500 million in TAX.

He sorted out Johnson, with houses, weddings, holidays etc:

There's a name for man like this!

Led by Donkeys projected a big screen with the message “immigration makes Britain brilliant” at Tommy Robinson’s Unite the Kingdom march in London on Saturday (16 May).

[Robert Peston @Peston]

Reform UK told the BBC that he paid in cash for his £1.4m house in Surrey with his “I’m a Celebrity” fee from ITV and not with the £5m gift from crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne - which Farage says was to provide him with security (physical, not financial). But the ITV “Celeb” fee was £1.5m, which would be £825,000 after tax, for a top-rate taxpayer like Farage. That’s £575,000 less than the price of the house.

And even if the fee was paid into his “Thorn in the side” media company rather than directly to him, it would still be taxable, one way or another

[OpIndia.com @OpIndia_com]

Why Western media reduces PM Narendra Modi to just “Hindutva nationalist” and “Gujarat 2002”?

Why Bloomberg, Reuters, The New York Times, and BBC see the “death of democracy” only when BJP wins?

Why are overcrowded trains and women carrying water on head is still treated as the default image of India?

@anurragmishra decodes this anti-India mindset.

[Politics In The U.K. @politixintheuk]

LBC James Hanson points out that Farage’s story “keeps changing” over the reasoning behind his £5 million gift.

[Victoria Derbyshire @vicderbyshire]

Nigel Farage tells The Sun the £5m he got from the crypto billionaire was a ‘reward for campaigning for Brexit for 27 years’

On May 5, Mr Farage said the money was ‘the only way I can protect myself for the rest of my life’ as he was the ‘most attacked, physically, politician of modern times’

[Supertanskiii @supertanskiii]

If he was willing to say “Up the RA” for £87, what do you think he’d be willing to do for £5 million?

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

Whoa… WHAT?!!
Farage told us it was all for security - where did he suddenly get £1.4m in cash to buy a property if it wasn’t from Harborne’s £5m ‘gift’ ?
This stinks more every day.

[LBC @LBC]

- Starmer gets some new glasses? ‘He needs to resign!’
- Farage gets £5 million? *crickets*

James O'Brien is baffled by the lack of coverage following the Reform leader's multimillion-pound 'gift' from a crypto billionaire.

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

Neoliberalism.

Since privatisation England water companies paid £85bn in dividends.

Average age of Thames Water infrastructure, 79 yrs.

Average age of water industry assets, 56 yrs.

At the current rate, it would take 700 years to renew infrastructure.

Until about a year ago, Farage regarded mass deportation as an extreme and (most of all) unworkable policy.

Now, Zia Yusuf talks about deporting up to 2m and sending them to places that didn't vote Reform.

The party is evolving fast. https://t.co/sBz0GM85JU

[Kevin Hollinrake MP @kevinhollinrake]

Nigel Farage suddenly pulled out of @bbclaurak today, immediately following the revelation about an undeclared £5m donation from a Crypto King living in Thailand.

Apparently he simply “changed his mind” about appearing.

No scrutiny. No declaration. No accountability.

One rule for Reform, another for everyone else.

Serial Desi Epstein defended by congress

19-year-old accused, identified as Ayan Ahmed Tanveer Ahmed, also known as Mohammad Ayaz, has been arrested for allegedly exploiting 180 minor girls and recording obscene videos.

Seeing Votebank in trouble
Congress leader Yashomati Thakur blamed the minor victims !

Shameful appeasement
