🚨 😹 Kemi Badenoch calls for a televised debate between Nigel Farage and @CountBinface.

Starmer: “They intend to spend the summer arguing with a bin.”

“My advice to everyone is: put your vote in the bin.”

Reform desperately wants fury, persecution and the establishment but the comedy is drowning them out. 🤣

[Liz Webster @LizWebsterSBF]

🔥 @DannyFink nails it: Farage is arguing for immunity from normal accountability!

And apparently immunity from his own ideology too.

Reform lecture the country about welfare and state dependency.

Farage turned down state-funded security, used security to justify a £5m gift and now we’re told the taxpayer should fund his protection.

State support for me, austerity for thee.

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

🚨 BREAKING: Today I'm presenting my new Parliamentary Bill to ban MPs' Second Jobs.

When an MP can pocket more for a couple of hours of “work” than a nurse earns in an entire year, something is deeply broken in our politics.

We're going to put a stop to this racket!

The Home Office call Reform UK's Honest Bob Jenrick a liar.

[🇬🇧King 🇬🇧 @King0243_PJC]

One question that deserves asking:

How did the horrific murder of Anne Widdecombe become a story almost entirely about Nigel Farage?

Within days, the headlines shifted from a victim of a brutal crime to debates about Farage’s security arrangements. We now know he was offered enhanced police protection, reportedly comparable to that offered to the Leader of the Opposition, but declined it.

Meanwhile, the scrutiny surrounding Reform UK’s finances, including questions over its multi-million-pound donations and links to a convicted crypto gambler, has all but disappeared from the front pages.

Whether intentional or not, the conversation has been diverted. Anne should never have become a political prop. Her death deserves dignity, not exploitation.

[Edwina Currie @Edwina_Currie]

The slight problem with close protection, of course, is that the police then keep a log of everywhere you go, and everyone you meet ..
Bit restricting, isn’t it?
Unless you’ve nothing to hide..

I remember listening to this show on my daily walk and I’ll never forget the long standing NHS PPE providing contractors phoning in and telling the country they were being ignored in favour of lobbied Tory mates. Criminal charges should be sought.

[HUMAN WA$TE @Dplanet]

🚨🇬🇧 ANALYSIS: Nigel Farage says the state left him so exposed he needed a £5m gift to stay alive.

This week we learned the truth: he was offered taxpayer-funded protection - a bodyguard, car and driver - and turned it down.

He wasn't abandoned. He said no. Let's unpack this persecution narrative 🧵⬇️

[Match of the Day @BBCMOTD]

Leeds United have agreed a £34.1m fee with Sassuolo for Bosnia and Herzegovina defender Tarik Muharemovic, who made three appearances at this summer's World Cup.

[Henry Winter @henrywinter]

Les Semiserables. France so poor, almost lifeless, suffocated by the superb Spanish, who dominated midfield. Rodri supreme. Cucurella and Porro outstanding full-backs. Deservedly through to the #FIFAWorldCup final #FRAESP

[(((Dan Hodges))) @DPJHodges]

As Ed Balls accurately points out, Nigel Farage has been offered a level of protection that goes beyond that provided to most members of the cabinet. He may not feel that is adequate. But as I said yesterday, Zia Yusuf's claim that Reform are being offered zero state protection was utterly false.

[ArthurMC2 @arthur_mc2]

Lord Heseltine is right....

[Miss Ally @MissAlly_01]

So if Farage wins, he won against a bin, & if he loses, he lost against a bin.

It’s a bin bin situation.

[dave lawrence 🐟🐟🐠 @dave43law]

FARAGE SECURITY REALITY CHECK

What reasons could Farage have for rejecting security except of course

- his movements would be mapped
- Parliament visits logged
- visitors and associates logged
- his 4 or 5hr lunches logged
- foreign trips logged and not only logged but detailed as to where he has visited, who he has visited, who financed the trip
- visits to Clacton logged (nil return)

[(((Dan Hodges))) @DPJHodges]

Think it's worth repeating. Zia Yusuf claimed no state support was being offered to Reform MPs for protection. In reality, Nigel Farage was offered a car, a trained driver, a bodyguard, and security on a similar level to that offered Kemi Badenoch. That's quite the deception.

[Alan Lester @aljhlester]

The BBC couldn’t be any clearer: Farage took huge sums of money to push the interests of crypto investors.

By far the most corrupt politician in modern British history.

[🇬🇧King 🇬🇧 @King0243_PJC]

Lest we forget: When a Reform councillor shared a post saying Labour MP Natalie Fleet “should be shot”, Farage refused to condemn it or sack him at PMQs.

Starmer called for basic decency, Farage deflected to the Chagos Islands and reportedly mouthed “No I won’t”.

Now Muhammad Ziauddin Yusuf and the rest scream like they own the moral high ground on threats and standards?

The double standards are shameless.

[Liz Webster @LizWebsterSBF]

🔥 Bloody hell. This isn’t a leader column, it is a P45 for Nigel Farage.

Nigel Farage is now described as a “vehicle for chaos” whose behaviour is damaging Reform and whose standing “will continue to falter”.

And the killer passage: Farage claims to be an insurgent asking voters to believe he’ll sweep away a self-serving political class, but cannot credibly make that case while treating disclosure rules and scrutiny as an intolerable intrusion.

The media spent years coveting Farage. Now the worm has turned. 🎥
