For the first time since 2024, the House passes bipartisan legislation to send billions of dollars in new security assistance to help our democratic ally Ukraine fight against Putin’s bloody illegal war and imperial aggression. Let’s stand strong for democracy and freedom against the oligarchs and authoritarians.
@XChiefMI6@Eduard_Hellvig Such an eloquent & moving tribute. What a loss to his family, friends & all who knew him - we all owe him so very much.
🛑 Nigel Farage should resign and face criminalinvestigation.
I do not often speak publicly about the riots of 2024, because my family still carries the scars of what happened afterwards. My son was followed by a far-right thug who threatened to burn and kill him, before smashing up our car when my husband arrived to protect him.
So it is not lost on me that Nigel Farage has escalated from suggesting, in the wake of Southport in 2024, that the truth was being hidden from the public, to now explicitly calling for “pure, cold rage” in 2026.
We know where this kind of rhetoric leads. Calls like that, alongside Tommy Robinson’s calls for people to gather outside police stations, have been followed by violent disorder in our communities.
Tuesday night in Southampton, 11 police officers were injured, people were reportedly arrested for offences including possession of weapons and assaulting police, property was damaged, cars were smashed, and communities were left frightened and distressed.
This is not responsible leadership. This is not justice for victims. This is the politics of rage, hate and division, and it has real consequences in communities like ours, and for families like mine.
Nigel Farage is a dangerous politician. He is dealing in a mendacious, hate-fuelled style of politics that puts ordinary people at risk.
He should resign.
@MelJStride@Conservatives Mel please stop lying. You’re doing Putin’s work for him. Until this week there were no sanctions on Russian oil products processed elsewhere coming into the uk (including under your government). From this week there are. Some products are banned immediately. Other are phased out
Mr Witkoff has gone to Moscow eight times to negotiate peace… zero times to Ukraine. Most Americans know this is not right. Don’t pretend to be neutral when the facts are obvious. Can we get someone serious in the position to do this right?
We’ve hit a big milestone… 1️⃣0️⃣
Since launching our free breakfast club programme, we’ve been giving children across our country the best start to their day.

This is the difference this Labour government is making.
Kids starting the day full and ready to learn, no matter their background.
An achievement all Labour MPs can be proud of- and opposed by the Conservatives and Reform.
We’ve hit a big landmark – 10 million free breakfasts served.
10 million better days at school – more children turning up, concentrating, getting on.
10 million easier mornings for parents – better drop-offs & commutes.
Change doesn’t happen by chance, it comes with Labour. 🌹
It is time for another lesson from my school teacher through her golden rule of journalism: Who, What, Where, When, and Why.
This time, we see real journalists who actually remember that lesson. They are doing their job exactly as they should, bravely exposing the facts for the benefit of the British public.
Who
The focus falls squarely on Nigel Farage, Richard Tice, and their shadow investor, the crypto-billionaire Christopher Harborne. Farage and Tice present themselves as ordinary leaders fighting for the working class. Yet the receipts tell us they are wealthy corporate figures deeply connected to elite tech billionaires. They demand transparency from everyone else, but they behave as though they are completely above the rules.
What
We are looking at an alarming multi-million-pound financial black hole. In its first year, the party recorded nearly £17.3 million in donations within its annual accounts, but only reported £11.7 million to the Electoral Commission. Even after explaining away part of it through registered supporter fees, a massive shortfall of £2.8 million remains completely unaccounted for. On top of that, an incredible £7.8 million was classified under 'other expenditure' with no breakdown whatsoever, creating a system where millions simply vanish into thin air.
Where
The money trails and operations move between local grassroots stages and hidden corporate spaces. While the political campaigns happen in working-class towns, the true financial architecture sits in the background. Christopher Harborne was not just a distant donor. Investigations reveal he was quietly given a desk inside the party headquarters, working directly on the algorithms that drove their political machine.
When
This murky pattern is not a new issue. It started at the very beginning in December 2019 during the European and general election campaigns, and it stretches all the way to the present day. It connects the early discrepancies of the Brexit Party directly to the recent controversy surrounding Harborne's undisclosed £5 million personal gift to Farage in 2024. This is a long-standing, continuous habit of hiding the numbers from public scrutiny.
Why
They use these unorthodox fundraising methods because UK regulations put the responsibility on the parties themselves to check their donations, making it easy to fly under the public radar. By keeping their accounts deliberately vague, they ensure potential voters cannot independently verify where their millions come from. They hide the truth because exposing their true financial reliance on offshore billionaire wealth would instantly destroy their manufactured anti-establishment image.
Following the money trail is all you ever need to do in politics.
My school teacher would give these journalists 10/10.
All the UK needs today are honest and brave journalists, and institutions that actually step up and do their job.
This time, the Electoral Commission cannot look the other way. The formal Freedom of Information request is officially logged under case reference FOI 046-26, and they must provide the public with clear answers.
Time to turn the lights on.
And if the institutions do nothing even now, then we might as well turn the lights off completely.

I live in Ince. This utter weapon is spewing nothing but hate and lies. It’s NOT a mosque, it’s a community centre that includes a small prayer room, amongst other things (such as a foodbank). Take your disgusting racism @RobKenyonReform and fuck off out of my constituency.
A Congressman’s warning: “I really hope the British public learns the lesson from Donald Trump when it comes to Nigel Farage”.
“Farage is a total fraud, and I hope they realise before its too late”
🇪🇺 HISTORIC MOMENT: THE EUROPEAN UNION SETS A DATE FOR UKRAINE'S ACCESSION TALKS! 🇺🇦🤝
It's official: the door to Europe is opening even wider for Ukraine. The European Union has finally agreed on a specific date to begin formal negotiations on Ukraine’s membership.
Ukraine has come a long way, and the final stretch toward becoming a full member of the European family now lies ahead.
This is recognition of the country's efforts, resilience, and commitment to its European path. The process is now moving from declarations to practical negotiations.
Are you ready to see Ukraine join the European Union? 🇺🇦🇪🇺
We have intel indicating that Russia is preparing a new massive attack. Please pay attention to air raid alerts and stay safe.
Air defense and the continued need to help Ukraine protect its skies are our key priorities. I am grateful to every partner, every leader, and every country that is ready to help and that implements our arrangements in full.
The PURL initiative must work. This concerns both the United States and Europe. We are pooling funds from our European partners and other friends to purchase missiles, including for Patriot systems. Sufficient supplies depend on America, and we hope that Ukraine will be heard.
Inflation “unexpectedly” fell by 0.5% to 2.8%
Growth was an “unexpected” 0.7% - the highest in the G7
Net immigration “unexpectedly” fell by 82%
NHS “unexpectedly” met it’s interim 18 week target
Our media have so deceived the public that all positive news is now “unexpected”
If my boys grow up to be like Jo and Kush from Race Across the World we will have done something right. They’re a brilliant antidote to Tate-style toxic masculinity: bright, kind, compassionate, emotionally intelligent, grounded, and culturally aware. PROPER role models for boys.
This is utterly misleading. We haven’t relaxed an existing sanction on Russian oil products refined elsewhere. We’ve introduced a sanction for the first time. We’re strengthening sanctions not weakening them.
