Another hit for Russian backed candidate Mr Farage. A real newspaper might have devoted a front page or two to his five million quid “gift for security” (sic) Amazing what can happen when the son of a KGB agent owns a paper and Thailand crypto billionaire gives money to burn

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

At what point do we stop pretending our newspapers are ‘news’ and start calling them what they are…

Promotional pamphlets for the billionaires who own them and the agendas they’re selling.

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

Brilliant, brilliant exposé by Alex Thomson @alextomo on @Channel4News last night, blowing the lid of the corrupt, and it is corruption of the @EnvAgency allowing water companies to walk away from criminal charges, jail time, unlimited fines and all for nothing more than a slap on the wrist and some blood money paid to local charities.

It's time to put an end to this nonsense, it's time to hold people to account, it's time to send the fat cats to jail.

The UK govt is Palantir’s 2nd biggest customer.

Why? Or, more to the point, how?

Our latest @thenerve_news investigation reveals a web of cronyism into the highest levels of govt.

But Palantir also has a spin machine that uses political journalists to launder its PR

Being the parent of a SEND daughter, my heart goes out to parents who must be so distressed by the leaks about SEND reforms

The idea of pushing more on to struggling schools/teachers is not the answer. So many waiting with bated breath to read what's published on Monday

Unless politicians change their mindset to investing in children so they can be the best they can be/contributing adults - lifetime costs, in ever way, will continue to rise

A ridiculously reductionist mentality. Not everything can be determined by direct numerical relationship. Lower wage earners may not be net tax contributors but are essential to society; ergo they contribute. As for the arts, these should not be just for rich kids.

[Dale Vince @DaleVince]

Actually I think these people should be facing jail time - a fine that they probably can't or won’t pay, for this horrendous abuse, not just of our countryside but of the law. This punishment does not fit the crime.

There must be a full independent inquiry into exactly what the Royal Family knew about Andrew.

This must include:

▪️ Who knew what and when?
▪️ Full disclosure of all relevant Royal documents
▪️Which Royals helped pay the £12m settlement in Virginia Giuffre’s sexual abuse case

[Gina Miller @thatginamiller]

Can anyone explain?

If Andrew Mountbatten Windsor is being investigated by the police for misconduct in public office, why is Peter Mandelson not being arrested/investigated for what appears to be identical offences?

[Pippa Crerar @PippaCrerar]

Keir Starmer has said Andrew Mounbatten-Windsor should testify before US Congress about links to late child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

“I have always said anybody who has got information should be prepared to share that in whatever form they are asked to do that. You can’t be victim-centred if you’re not prepared to do that.”

Epstein survivor: “I was raped three times a day and I wasn’t the only girl. It was a conveyor belt of abuse.”

We are ruled by the monsters behind this.

The entire system needs to be destroyed.

[Amber Woods @AmberWoods100]

This wasn’t one predator. It was never about Epstein. Survivors tried to tell us.

It is a system:
child trafficking, rape, torture, grooming, blackmail, espionage.

Sustained by elite networks.
Shielded by institutions.
Buried for 30+ years.

The brave survivors who came forward are just a small fraction of those harmed.

The question no one wants to answer is the most important one:
what happened to the likely tens of thousands of other girls?

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

Everyone knows what went on here...

The lies we were fed to cover it up

Unreal that we have to stomach the lack of justice let alone the unchecked power.

[Good Law Project @GoodLawProject]

A world where our health records are used to power state-sponsored surveillance and target vulnerable communities isn’t so far away. And it's exactly what Palantir wants

Keep Palantir out of our NHS 👇

Water privatisation is possibly the most spectacular failure of all.
The private companies turn your money into debt and interest for financiers, while there is no water in homes and cr*p in our rivers.
This scandal must end.

🧵EXCLUSIVE: This story is wild. Nigel Farage's crypto plan for Britain was largely manufactured by top Trump-Russia influence operative and convicted fraudster Paul Manafort - who is working with an American Farage crypto donor /1 https://t.co/S1HO9EjuUr

"South East Water boss in line for £400,000 bonus despite outages."

There you have it... you're incompetent, you're greedy and you've blighted the lives of tens of thousands of families but not to worry, you'll still get a £400,000 bonus.

So much for govt getting tough, so much for the hopeless bonus ban. What a farce.

🚨BREAKING: Parliament is going to debate the petition Calling for a public inquiry into Russian influence on UK politics & democracy on 9 February.

This is why it’s so important👇

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

These poor kids didn’t stand a bloody chance…

345 vulnerable kids, seeking asylum and then lost by our authorities

50 still missing

Likely to traffickers

How could this have happened?

Unforgivable from now-Reform controlled Kent County Council.
