Polite reminder. Trump & Brexit are not 2 different things. They are the same thing. Same companies. Same data. Same Facebook. Same Russians. Same Cambridge Analytica. Same Robert Mercer. Same Steve Bannon. Same Breitbart. Same Alexander Nix. Same Donald Trump. Same Nigel Farage.
Over the last 36 hours, we have witnessed the very soul of Nigel Farage — his essence.
It has been over a month since he went into hiding, since serious questions began to be raised over his undeclared £5M donation.
A month since he appeared in front of TV cameras or underwent any questioning at all.
At 8am yesterday morning, Farage released a video, from a field somewhere, calling for rage. Calling for an end to the mythical two-tier policing.
Make no mistake, those were very carefully chosen words — he understood what he was unleashing, and his wish was granted last night in Southampton.
On Tuesday, the Home Secretary made a statement to the House regarding the murder of Henry Nowack. There was, as always, an opportunity to question Shabana Mahmood — was Nigel Farage in attendance?
No, of course not.
Today, Farage was granted a question at PMQs — the showpiece spectacle of the political week in which the country's news and politics fanatics tune in to watch — was Nigel Farage in attendance?
Yes, of course he was.
He had somehow found his way into work after missing 77 separate votes in Parliament because … he would, at least for three minutes, be the centre of the country's political attention.
His question was about the murder of Henry Nowack and the violence that erupted [on his command] last night, but he would not condemn it or call for calm.
Instead, he 'suggested' that this rioting might escalate.
This afternoon, he has performatively written to the BBC because someone on Newsnight dared to accuse him of inciting the violence — playing his perpetual victim card. Again.
And there we see the soul of Nigel Farage — a craven, desperate for attention, evil, petty and pointless man.
END RANT.

Right: GB News presenter Matt Goodwin, "I think it's anti white racism"
Farage is sick.
He's just made an "emergency address" where he exploited the tragic death of a young person, Henry Nowak, to push his hate fuelled agenda and try to deflect from the very serious allegations of bribery and misconduct levelled against him.
Farage is scum.
This is what elite, world-class investigative journalism looks like:
Carole Cadwalladr and her team at The Nerve have forensically stripped the mask off the British political establishment.
The pattern they found in The Harborne Receipts is nothing short of terrifying. Millions of pounds flow from a crypto-billionaire into the pockets of Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage, and like clockwork, weeks later, those exact politicians start pushing laws to benefit the crypto industry.
It is the exact same playbook Donald Trump used in America. It is cash-for-policy, clear as day.
While the billionaire-owned press tries to distract us with culture wars and theatre, true journalists follow the money.
This is the toxic soil that is destroying our democracy from within.
Absolute honour to see her back in action!
Just booked someone a train ticket Valencia-Madrid at 12 hours notice for travel tomorrow morning. High speed 1hr 56 mins. £26. We are being ripped off all the time in this country.
Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.
Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.
Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."
Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."
Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.
They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.
One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."
Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.
That's the metered intelligence business model.
And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.
If the £5m, £1m & multiple house purchases were all legal and above board then Nigel Farage would be on every single channel, with all the necessary evidence, so that he could scream and shout about witch-hunts, the fact that he’s not, and is essentially hiding, says everything.
Here’s just one detail from @thenerve_news#HarborneReceipts timeline.
On the *exact same day* Christopher Harborne gives Reform £3m, Nigel Farage says Reform will lift cap on stablecoin ownership.
Where does Christopher Harborne’s money come from, you ask?
Stablecoins!
Funny. I thought it was morally wrong for Elon Musk, the wealthiest man alive worth more than $800 billion, to eliminate humanitarian aid that will cause 4.5 million of the poorest kids on the planet to die in the next 4 years.
Another classic 'protecting women and girls’ by doxxing a victim of childhood marriage who fled Sierra Leone when she was 16, by the same flaccid mollusc who helped Dirty Desmond cheat a £45m community infrastructure levy, which could have helped veterans AND victims of abuse.
Reform not celebrating this 80% drop in Migration showcases that the Far-Right doesn't even care about migration, they care about division.
Dividing Europe, Dividing People, and selling off our countries to their masters in the US and Russia.
They are traitors to their country
Why was your old account @Makerfield_RFK suspended, Rob?
Is your new account going to promote far-right accounts like Carl Benjamin or Wayne O'Rouke who was jailed for genuine incitement during the Southport riots is this a new leaf (some would call a scrub)?
Will you be nominated by your friend Councillor Steve Jones, like you were for councillor. You know, the one that was done for ABH against his wife? Her wounds needed stapling.

To put this in perspective, this railway is costing (minimum) £1,000,000 for every 2 metres of track.
Planning on it started in 2009 and it won’t to be completed until earliest the 2040s.
It’s only 215km long. Will take over 30 years to build. China built a faster train line that’s over 6 times longer than this one in three years. And that Chinese railway cost at least five times less (£21bn) to build.
HS2 has cost us more than it cost the US to fly to the moon.
Hilariously by the time it opens in 2039 HS2 will be...
The most expensive high speed railway in the world.
The slowest high speed railway in the world.
The longest time to build railway in the world.
And the shortest high speed railway in the world.
One word, CORRUPTION.
