Very cool, entertaining and with high production values: if I were @Nigel_Farage, I’d consider dipping into that £5 million to try to get out a video that can compare to it.
🇺🇦🇷🇺 ZELENSKYY TELLS PUTIN UKRAINE WILL KEEP FIGHTING FOR EXISTENCE
"If you personally do not come to the conclusion that it is time to end this war, Ukraine will continue fighting for its existence. We will have those who support us. But you, too, will have to fight much harder for your own existence — not Russia’s, but your own.
And this is not a threat from me or from Ukraine. It is a fact of Russian history that you know well: when Russia grows tired, change comes. We can work toward that fatigue. You can stop your war." - Volodymyr Zelenskyy 🇺🇦 to Vladimir Putin 🇷🇺
This is the strategic message: Ukraine 🇺🇦 is not fighting for conquest. It is fighting because Russia 🇷🇺 brought war to its land and tried to destroy its independence.
Putin can stop the war he started. If he does not, Ukraine will keep building pressure until the cost of the invasion reaches the system that sustains him.
Nigel Farage quitting as an MP to avoid scrutiny is a perfect example of the Streisand Effect.
With no other candidates except Count Binface, the media have nothing better to do than dig deep into Farage for a whole month.
Every upturned stone reveals things wriggling under it.
Richard Tice told The Times in March 2025 that he had “never met Nathan Gill”
Tice - "Please welcome to the stage, Nathan Gill."

Tommy Robinson is a useful idiot for a hostile state.
What kind of so-called British patriot jets to Moscow to rub shoulders with Putin’s cronies, bankrolled by a US trillionaire?
We must protect our democracy from far-right thugs, shady tech bros and foreign interference.
It’s hard to imagine a worse 2 days for Nigel Farage. He resigned as MP for Clacton thinking it would be a masterstroke, and it’s turned into the opposite.
Every major party pulled out, leaving him fighting Count Binface, and his own spokespeople have spent that time embarrassing themselves trying to defend it.
There’s no way back now. And still, defiantly, Reform is uploading full campaign videos like they’re not in a contest with a bin. Being hated is one thing. Being laughed at is the end.
Whoever came up with this deserves a standing ovation. 😂😂😂
“Stop the bungs” with Count Binface standing on the beach while Nigel Farage rows away in a boat full of cash… satire doesn’t get much better than this.
It's maybe time for a long story on @carolecadwalla who had warned and done the work on potential corruption around Farage et al years ago but was instead hounded and insulted and later sued.
Even worse, she wasn't listened to at the time. Why not?
So what's my take on Count Binface standing in Clacton?
Well, seven years ago the world all laughed when Ukraine elected a comedian as president.
We're not laughing now.
APPLEBAUM: Putin's war finally reached Moscow. Muscovites having trouble functioning normally in capital and been subjected, for the first time, to real drone campaigns. They finally see the war and beginning to understand that they're not winning, and that war is coming closer.
And I know that some will argue that these are the type of policies that resulted in the 2024 disaster. But really? Not partygate or the mini-budget? The reality is that the Tory Right had complete control of the party from July 2019 onwards. And they own the 2024 result.
There are centre right voters who think we should stay in the ECHR and/or think we should get to net zero (after all, both were longstanding Tory Party policies). Does the Conservative Party want their support or not?
