There is now clear evidence that the Great Israeli Real Estate event had unlawful activity at it.

I've written to the Mayor of London to ask what he intends to do about it.

This needs to be escalated immediately.

[judy morris @judymorris3]

It's long overdue for America to:

1. Defund Israel
2. Stop giving Israel bombs
3. Bomb the Israeli airfields and military planes have have destroyed #Gaza and are currently destroying #Lebanon.

Human beings don't do this to other human beings. This is the work of depraved savages.

Nigel Farage - the leader of Reform UK - is STILL under investigation for failing to declare a £5 million 'gift'.

Please RT this until this until he no longer is.

Thank you

Ryan Bridge has been filmed striking a female protestor in the face in Brighton. That single act destroys any claim Raise the Colours make about “protecting women and girls.” Please share this he cannot be allowed to get away with it. I hope she’s okay and has reported the assault to the police.

The ‘Great Israeli Real Estate Event’ is to be held in London this Sunday.

This disgraceful event will involve the sale of land stolen from Palestinians in illegal Israeli settlements.

Today, I called for the Government to ban this event.

[Murray Rothbard @MurraySuggests]

The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.

The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.

Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.

If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

This morning I asked myself, not for the first time, who is Nigel and I made some notes.

And it does add up.

Here is a man who sells himself as the ordinary bloke with a pint, the man of the people, the great outsider standing up against the establishment.

And yet somehow this ordinary bloke always seems to arrive with a camera crew, a donor network, a friendly broadcaster, and now a parliamentary investigation into a £5 million gift from a crypto billionaire.

Very normal.

Very grassroots.

Very “just one of the lads”.

The peoples revolt, apparently, now comes with lighting, branding, fundraising dinners, professional outrage, and a small question about whether millions should have been declared properly.

Everything is a betrayal when Labour does it.

Everything is “nothing to see here” when Nigel does it.

Housing? Blame Labour.
The NHS? Blame Labour.
The economy? Blame Labour.
Boats? Blame Labour.
A £5 million gift? Suddenly everybody must calm down and respect the process.

And then came Tuesday.

A young man died. A family was grieving. A country was trying to understand something horrific.

And Farage stepped forward.

Not with calm.
Not with care.
Not with responsibilty.

But with his announcement of “pure cold rage”.

That phrase matters.

Because anger is human.
Anger can be moral.
Anger can demand answers, justice, accountability and truth.

I understand anger.
A lot of people are angry.
They have every right to ask serious questions.

But rage is different.

Rage does not ask careful questions.
Rage does not wait for investigations.
Rage does not protect grieving families from becoming political props.

Rage looks for a target.

And that is where Farage always seems most comfertable.

Not solving the pain.
Not calming the country.
Not asking how institutions failed and how they can be fixed.

But standing beside the pain with a microphone, turning the temprature up, and calling it leadership.

Warm enough to repost.
Warm enough to donate.
Warm enough to vote.
But never calm enough to ask:

“Hang on, who benefits from keeping us this angry?”

That is the trick.

He does not need Britain to feel hopeful.
He does not even need Britain to feel informed.

He needs Britain permanently one headline away from rage.

Because rage is usefull.

It fills rallies.
It drives clicks.
It turns grief into theatre.
It makes slogans feel like solutions.

And while everyone is shouting, nobody asks the boring questions.

Where is the plan?
Where is the funding?
Where are the costings?
Where is the responsibilty?

Maybe that is who Nigel Farage is.

Not the man of the people.

But the man who knows exactly how to turn peoples pain into his own political stage.

The Reform & Tory Sitcom continues.

Same chaos. Different rosette.

Anger can demand answers.
Rage just sells tickets.

If this speaks to you, please add your comments, repost it, and maybe follow me — not for me, but because politics needs fewer slogans and more people asking proper questions.

A week in the life of Lee Anderson

Starts the week filming himself walking around town pointing at homeless people for content, acting like he’s discovered poverty personally while somehow still missing every reason it exists.

Monday: Wakes up furious about something he hasn’t read yet. Goes on GB News to explain Britain was better when chips came in newspaper and nobody had feelings. Later shares that infamous “bacon bum” picture online like it’s the height of political commentary, seemingly more interested in winding people up and stoking division against Muslims than saying anything remotely useful.

Tuesday: Visits a food bank. Says it proves community spirit is alive and well, while carefully avoiding the question why the food bank needs to exist. Later spends 45 minutes in frantic phone calls with Nigel Farage trying to decide which post he should put on X, before finally posting: “The left hate Britain because I had beans on toast for breakfast. Sad!”

Wednesday: Announces common sense has been cancelled. Nobody knows by who. Possibly tofu. Writes another strongly worded letter to the government demanding action on whatever made him angry that morning. Receives absolutely no reply.

Thursday: Blames net zero for the weather, immigration for potholes, and Labour for the fact his Greggs sausage roll was lukewarm.

Friday: Gives a speech about hard work from a taxpayer-funded office, then says people on benefits should “just graft more”. Mentions he’s still waiting to hear back about his letter.

Saturday: Posts a photo of a full English breakfast with the caption: “This is British culture.” Blocks 400 people before lunch. Then backs some grifter called Robert Kenyon, because apparently “common sense politics” now means falling for anyone with a webcam, a PayPal link and a persecution complex.

Sunday: Says he’s being silenced on his national TV show, newspaper column, radio interview and 9 separate social media accounts. Writes yet another letter to the government and immediately complains they’re ignoring him again.

Then, after a full week of telling everyone else to tighten their belts, we discover the “man of the people” — elected as a Conservative MP, later reinvented as a Reform MP — claimed £264,074 in parliamentary costs in 2024/25, around £39k above the published MP average.

That’s £723 a day, every single day of the year.

Not illegal. Not even top of the league. Just very funny from a man whose entire brand is telling everyone else to live on “common sense” and graft harder.

Another hard week defending ordinary people from the elite — mainly by shouting at them, reposting rage-bait from anonymous accounts with Union Jack profile pictures, pretending every criticism is an attack on free speech, platforming chancers, mistaking outrage for policy.

Common sense, taxpayer-funded edition.

[The Receipts UK ♿ @david_hollas]

I've obtained the master contract between the Ministry of Defence and Palantir Technologies UK Ltd.
It covers 2026 to 2029. It was signed on 30 December 2025 — while Parliament was in recess. There was no competitive tender. Here's what's in it. And what they don't want you to see.
The contract is administered through Defence Digital at MoD Corsham, the nerve centre of UK military digital and intelligence infrastructure.
The contract number is redacted. Not the value. Not the scope. The contract number itself is classified.
The entire pricing section is gone. Redacted under Section 43 of the Freedom of Information Act, commercial interests. So is the IP clause. So are the key liability figures. So are all the contract schedules.
A US company is embedded into UK defence infrastructure for three years. The public cannot see what we are paying for it.
Now here's the clause that should be getting more attention.
Palantir staff working on classified MoD sites must hold Security Check clearance as a minimum, with Developed Vetting available when required. The contract says personnel should be UK nationals where site classification requires.
Should. Not must.
Palantir was founded by Peter Thiel. It grew out of a CIA seed investment. Its largest shareholder base is American. Its founders have direct relationships with US intelligence going back two decades.
The contract does not prohibit non-UK nationals from working on classified UK defence environments. It expresses a preference.
Condition 14. The media clause.
Palantir is contractually prohibited from communicating with press, television, radio or other media about anything in this contract without prior written MoD consent.
That is why Palantir UK has said nothing publicly about this deal. They are legally barred from doing so.
The contract was signed on 30 December 2025. Parliament was in recess. No tender process. No public announcement at signing. The contract number is a state secret. The price is hidden. And the contractor is gagged.
This is how £240 million of public money gets committed to a single American company with no scrutiny whatsoever.
Section 43, commercial interests, is a qualified exemption under FOIA. That means a public interest test applies.
The argument that Palantir's commercial sensitivity outweighs the public's right to know the cost of a no-tender three-year defence contract is not a strong one. I'll be filing for an internal review.
I'll be publishing the full analysis on Substack. If you think Parliament should be able to see what we're paying Palantir and why no other company was given the chance to bid, share this thread.
The document is real. The redactions are real. Draw your own conclusions.
