A lot of the questions being asked about whether I'm quitting because of the Guardian review that tore my documentary to shreds are answered by my "I'm Not Quitting Because The Guardian Review Tore My Documentary To Shreds" t-shirt.

About as capable of reading the room as Laurence Fox

The Greens should stand against Nigel Farage in Clacton.

They're the only major party willing to take on the substance of Farage.

The other parties built up Farage by copying his toxic agenda.

The Greens should use the by-election as a national platform to make that case.

binface vs farage vs lawrence fox is like el classico for “different ways your mate’s dad could end up taking the divorce”

[Sky News @SkyNews]

Clarification: Sky News was not at the property at 7.41am. As has already been acknowledged, and as shown in the footage from 10.19am, Sky News was outside a property where Mr Farage was registered to vote at the last election. Sky News did not interact with Mr Farage’s daughter.

On a single occasion, we approached the property without a camera operator, identified ourselves as Sky News, and the adult occupant chose not to engage. We were seeking to contact Mr Farage to ask questions about the gift he accepted from Mr Cottrell. This is a well-established and routine journalistic practice when reporting on matters of legitimate public interest.

The footage clearly demonstrates that Sky News did not “hound” or pursue Mr Farage’s daughter. At no stage did we seek to speak to anyone other than Mr Farage in connection with this story.

Nigel Farage looks completely broken in this airport clash.

The pressure has finally got to him, I honestly thought he was about to punch that Sky News reporter.

He sounds finished. MSM are asking the real questions for the first time and this reaction says it all. Time’s up? #Farage #ReformUK

In response to the amusing if bewildering accusation I’m a Labour stooge, please do pass this on to the following comrades:

— Keir Starmer and Waheed Alli, whose gifts of suits and spectacles to the PM was a story I broke

— Jeremy Corbyn, who furiously denounced a book I cowrote as “tittle tattle”

— Matthew Doyle, whose association with a convicted paedophile I exposed

— Tulip Siddiq, whose housing deals I examined and formed part of the inquiry leading to her resignation

— Keir Starmer (again), who said the thesis of a second book I wrote was “bollocks”

— Morgan McSweeney, whose group’s £750,000 of unlawfully undeclared donations I exposed

— Labour Together, which paid a US lobbying firm tens of thousands to investigate my work

— Ann Limb, who had her Labour peerage deferred after I revealed she made up part of her CV

— Joe Docherty, who was suspended as a Labour peer after I revealed his workplace sexting

— Angela Rayner, whose trip to New York alongside her boyfriend I revealed was funded by Waheed Alli

I recall many Reform figures vigorously agreeing about the public interest in those stories. Some have even referred to them in order to highlight the wrongdoing of the left since yesterday.

But also, it isn’t “my” story, it’s the Sunday Times investigation team, Insight’s story. It could not, would not have happened, without the whole paper, especially @ManuMidolo @venetiamenzies @GeorgeGreenwood whose revelations were indispensable and who have not to my knowledge (yet) been accused of being Labour activists.

Moreover the Sunday Times isn’t a Labour paper, or paper which exists to serve anyone or any party other than its readers and, to the best of our abilities, the public interest.

Can't believe these new-fangled taxi things might steal jobs from Uber drivers, having your industry turned upside down by new technology must be awful

@Muqadaam He lost????

[Joseph Gellman @joseph_gellman]

Starmer and Reeves came to power, went “do we really need to be giving pensioners hundreds of pounds in extra welfare, regardless of how rich they are?”, and the electorate never forgave them

[owen @owenlloyd29]

I’d cut the sass and focus on being less shit, but sure great burn I guess?
