He does claim expenses. He also famously had his MEP's salary docked by £35,500 after claims of him misspending funds. I'm sure the 5 mil 'gift' from his 'friend' will see him through regardless.

Arrived in Ireland to take part in the opening ceremony of Ireland’s presidency of the Council of the European Union. I will also meet with Taoiseach Micheál Martin and President of the European Council António Costa.

Every day, Ukraine proves that it deserves to be an equal part of our shared European home. And we hope that during Ireland’s presidency of the Council of the European Union, we will be able to achieve tangible progress on the path to membership and open all negotiating clusters.

Reform is sinking in the polls and losing every national contest that gets real scrutiny. Zia Yusuf won’t deny failing to be selected as a candidate. Farage’s £5m gift won’t go away. This is the same corruption blueprint Orban, Trump, Erdogan and Bolsonaro all followed to power.

BREAKING: Donald Trump is reportedly pissed that the White House has now been labeled as a rapist’s house on major sex offender map apps, and he can’t sue to force them to remove that designation because it’s legally official.

Reform MP Lee Anderson asks if Keir Starmer agrees that all illegal migrants in the UK should be deported

Starmer: "He should be asking questions of his party leader. Why did he keep his £5m gift secret? And are they happy with him earning £22,000 per hour?"

Wonderful to see Ireland thriving in the EU. To think some Vote Leave people assumed the Irish were going to join Britain in Brexit!

Read this & weep.

This utter scumbag paedo, Jamie Smith was found GUILTY of possessing & distributing extreme child abuse videos/images, including of babies & category A - the most serious type.

The judge acknowledged that Smith “has a fairly longstanding interest in children, of any age”.🤢

Smith’s barrister tried to blame social media for the paedophile’s actions.

His family stuck by him & begged for clemency.

Was he jailed?

Don’t be silly….

The judge said that jailing him ‘wouldn’t be constructive or in the public interest’. He was instead given a two-year community rehabilitation order and 10 days of rehabilitation activity.🤯

We have a deep sickness within our society, we do not take the protection of children anywhere nearly as seriously as we should. It is scandalous.

We should have ZERO TOLERANCE for child abuse. No ‘second chances’. This paedophile should have been jailed and castrated. I’d probably want to look into his family (and anyone else who seems to think this is ok) too if I were in charge.

People of Christchurch, keep an eye out for this paedophile and keep him far, far away from your children.

Jamie, his family and the judge should all be utterly ashamed of themselves.

My heart breaks for the babies and children who were harmed, for this man’s pleasure 💔

BREAKING: Donald Trump is reportedly "apocalyptically angry" that the Supreme Court's rejection of his E. Jean Carroll guilty verdict appeal, means that he's officially, once and for all, a rapey, raping rapist.

Ben Habib claimed Christopher Harborne paid Nigel Farage & Boris Johnson £1m each to fix the 2019 general election.

Harborne is now suing Habib for defamation.

So what actually happened? Read part 2 of our @thenerve_news investigation #HarborneReceipts to find out.

YOU WANTED A WALL, TRUMP? YOU’LL HAVE ONE.
Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, responded to Trump’s threats:
“So you voted to build a wall.
Well then, dear Americans — even if geography isn’t your strong suit, and you see America as a country rather than a continent — you should know that on the other side of that wall stand 7 billion people.
And if the word ‘people’ doesn’t resonate with you, let’s call them ‘consumers.’
Those 7 billion consumers can switch from iPhone to Samsung or Huawei in less than two days.
They can trade Levi’s for Zara or Massimo Dutti, and within six months replace Ford and Chevrolet with Toyota, KIA, Mazda, Honda, Hyundai, Volvo, Subaru, Renault, or BMW — brands that are already more popular in many places.
They can cancel DirecTV.
And even if they choose not to, they can stop watching Hollywood films and turn instead to higher-quality productions from Latin America or Europe — with richer storytelling and better filmmaking.
Believe it or not, people can skip Disney and visit the Xcaret resort in Cancún instead — or explore destinations across Mexico, Canada, or South America.
Even in Mexico, you can find better burgers than McDonald’s — with higher nutritional value.
Have you ever seen pyramids in the United States?
Egypt, Mexico, Peru, Guatemala, and Sudan have ancient wonders — none of them in the U.S.
If they were, Trump would probably have bought and resold them by now.
We know Nike isn’t the only sneaker brand. There’s Adidas — and even Mexican brands like Panama.
We understand economics better than you think.
And we also know that when those 7 billion consumers stop buying American products, unemployment will rise, and your economy — trapped behind its own self-imposed wall — will begin to collapse to the point where you’ll be begging for help.
We didn’t want to do this.
But you wanted a wall?
Well.
You’ve got one.”
Her approval rating has reached a historic level — according to a recent poll, it stands at 85%.

They made millions whilst we’re all poorer.

As Britain swelters through another heatwave, few people will have heard that ministers have quietly dropped plans for solar carports.

Cars cooler in summer. Shelter from the rain in winter. Clean electricity all year round.

A missed opportunity?

What the BBC did. They played clips of Trump out of chronological order. He complained. They apologised. That should have been it. But he sued them for $10 billion.

So the BBC is going to fully litigate all of Trump's actions surrounding the attack on the Capitol.

Excellent.

The sums involved in the MPs expenses scandal were chicken feed compared to the Farage £5m. HIs reaction - mind your own business - suggests he may not be cut out for this democracy thing https://t.co/rOJwRqxgUs
