BREAKING: NBC News is reporting that President Trump's investment accounts purchased over 300 stocks on the day before his tariffs were paused.

THE MOST CORRUPT PRESIDENT EVER! BY FAR!

How does Five Homes Farage possibly persuade ordinary people he is on their side? Imagine being rich enough to own 5 homes outright - 4 of them purchased since 2020. Imagine the sheer brass neck of not even declaring to parliament where the cash to buy 3 of them came from 😳

🚨 The Times: Reform donor Christopher Harborne’s fuel company (AML Global) has contracts linked to an Indian refinery that processes Russian crude oil.

Harborne gave Nigel Farage £5 million in 2024.

Questions are growing about the sources and consistency of Reform’s funding and energy stance.

@danny__kruger "Personal finances" doing some heavy lifting here. He is an MP, and any hint of bribery deserves scrutiny. Stop whining.

Strange that a Thai based billionaire can register to vote at a farmhouse that he doesn't own and doesn't live in, so he can keep funding the party he doesn't own, in an attempt to stop foreign based people who don't live here coming in 🤷

.@elonmusk says that no one can name a person who died from his aid cuts. In fact, I've met the kids who are dying, and I've talked to the families who lost children. In my columns, I've cited many, many names of people who have died because of Musk's aid cuts. A few examples:
*Yamah Freeman was a 23-year-old woman who died in childbirth because Musk cut funding for the diesel for ambulances in her part of Liberia. She couldn't get to a hospital and died as people were carrying her there. I talked to her parents and sister in their village.
*Gbessey Kiadu, age 1, died of malaria because of his cuts to malaria medication in Liberia. I talked to his mom in her village.
*Ibrahim Koroma, an infant, died of AIDS in Sierra Leone after he interrupted HIV supplies. I talked to health workers who cared for him.
*Achol Deng was an 8-year-old girl with HIV in South Sudan who died when Musk cut funding for the health care worker who provided her medicines. I talked to the healthcare workers.
I could go on and on. In almost every village you go to in South Sudan, Uganda, Liberia, Sierra Leone or other countries I reported in, you find people dying because of aid cuts. I challenge Musk: Come with me on a reporting trip, and we'll talk to these moms and dads, and you'll see the dying children themselves. I think if you see the kids whose lives are at stake, maybe you'll change your mind.

I’m fed up with politicians saying we need to “respect” the 2016 Brexit referendum result.

A decision by a narrow majority 10yrs ago, that turned out to be a costly mistake, does not have to be “respected”.

If a democracy cannot change its mind it ceases to be a democracy

🚨 John Major’s 10 year Brexit interview clarifies how we left a market of 50m people to 70 million people in a world of nine and a half billion.

Brexit is costing us £100bn/year in trade (£2bn/week) which is why Govt has to make unpopular cuts.

[Parody Nigel Farage @Parody_PM]

To those who say “this is not the Brexit I voted for”, you voted for an impossible fantasy, sold to you by grifting gobshites with no interest in reality or what was actually possible. You got exactly what you voted for.

[Chris S @Chopalong]

@MichelleDewbs Sure you have

‼️ @hugorifkind says the biggest mistake wasn’t Brexit, it was the referendum.

That rigid “will of the people” trap has delivered a decade of damage: lagging growth, weaker pound, falling exports, and lost opportunities.
Electoral mandates shouldn’t be suicide pacts. Brexit should never have happened on that basis.

The referendum was advisory only and not legally binding. It was sold on lies (£350m bus), dark money, and claims that were quickly abandoned.

Yet it was treated as a sacred mandate that every subsequent government felt forced to deliver, no matter the cost.

Resulting in a decade of weaker growth, permanently lower exports, a weaker pound, and real hardship.

Brexit should never have been allowed to happen on that basis. The evidence now demands we face reality and move on, including dropping the red lines and delivering the growth Britain needs.

Wow. A Lancet study says Elon Musk will have killed 14 million people by 2030. Lancet is the world's top medical journal.

[Joni Askola @joni_askola]

The world's richest man is desperately trying to rewrite history regarding his destruction of USAID.

Elon Musk's sudden pivot to damage control proves he knows exactly how devastating his actions were, no matter how much he tries to spin it now.

In his latest gaslighting campaign, Musk claims he only stepped in to ensure there was no fraud, leaning heavily on fabricated narratives about Ukraine and COVID to shield himself from criticism. But the internet remembers everything. We all saw him brag on X about sending USAID to the wood chipper with zero regard for the global fallout.

His malicious cuts dismantled life-saving food, medical, and security infrastructure around the world. A peer-reviewed study published in The Lancet warns that the defunding of USAID will result in a staggering 14 million preventable deaths by 2030, including 4.5 million children under the age of five. Hundreds of thousands have already died. They are dying from entirely treatable conditions like malnutrition, malaria, and a lack of HIV medication because PEPFAR and global health networks were frozen overnight.

Naturally, given the chaotic nature of humanitarian crises, it is impossible to audit every single one of these deaths in real time. But while the precise statistics will be debated by academics for years, the big picture is inescapable: when you suddenly choke off medicine and food to millions of vulnerable people, catastrophic suffering and a massive loss of life are the inevitable result.

No amount of whitewashing by Musk will change the facts, and history will remember him for the lives he destroyed

Here we are in 2026, worse off, and with less money for public services
