Rupert Murdoch - "When I go to Downing Street they do what I say; when I go to Brussels they take no notice." We need real independence from Murdoch, not fake independence from the EU. #BBB Brexit Betrays Britain

In case you're unfamiliar with George Madgwick, he was outed in the ITV documentary recently as the neo-Nazi Reform councillor in Portsmouth. He's been a cosy contributor to many media shows, not least @ShelaghFogarty on @LBC who has had many laughs with him on air. Reform UK once again will claim that it's 'one bad apple' but it is obvious to all now that they do not vet candidates. This is a truly horrific set of charges and should, in normal times, trigger a nationwide investigation into the party. But will it? No, we know it won't at all. Farage will brush it off as he always does. We should not let them skirt this latest disgusting breach of trust.
🚨 NEW: The leader of Reform UK in Hampshire has been charged with 35 offences, including 12 counts of rape and making indecent images of a child

Photo taken at The Wellington, Old Portsmouth, back in March 2026, Madgwick had been arrested two months before this on 6th January 2026. What do we think Farage was laughing at?

After the referendum, the BBC chief Lord Hall ordered the BBC to treat Brexit as a done deal, a decision which all but wholly excluded Remainer opinion from the BBC for over 2 years, thus grossly biasing the debate. It was a grotesque abuse of democracy. radiotimes.com/tv/current-af… Brexit was won by the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history. This was just one of them. #BBB Brexit Betrays Britain – at Brighton, England

BBC CHIEF LORD HALL It has been apparent for years, that the BBC did not pursue an impartial path, on Brexit. To compound matters, it has subsequently allowed Farage to appear on BBC programmes, in a totally unbalanced number of times. In fact it has made a mockery of its previous reputation, as a national “treasure” sponsored by the Nation. NATIONAL DISGRACE, would now be a better description. And @lisanandy has been a totally ineffective Minister in charge of Media. Indeed one could be forgiven for thinking she didn’t exist. @andyburnham @cabinetofficeuk @DCMS

Read Suella’s letter after Rishi sacked her. Every promise made to bring down immigration and strengthen deportations were broken! Post General Election, Suella is on record saying she tried her hardest to get the Conservatives to change and that the Conservatives are not truly aligned and prepared to do what’s necessary - Confirming they are making empty promises that they will not deliver. Kemi’s response to this was not denial, but trying to suggest Suella had mental health problems, which she then admitted was false and has to apologise for! Facts over feeling Connor! It’s all on record.

So let me get this straight. Suella (Conservative Home Secretary 2022 - 2023) felt so strongly about the betrayal of the Boris Wave that she stood as a Conservative candidate in 2024 and then sat as a Conservative MP for a further 18 months before jumping ship. Stacks up 🤔
The Boriswave was the greatest betrayal by the last Conservative government. It’s why I left the Conservatives.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Braverman served as Attorney General under Johnson and Home Secretary 2022-23 amid the immigration surge called the Boriswave. She remained a Conservative until defecting to Reform in Jan 2026 after the 2024 election. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suella_Br… bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Had the Brexit referendum been mandatory it would have been annulled because of electoral fraud. Our political elite treated it as mandatory while exploiting the loophole of it being advisory. Mafia lawyers exploit legal loopholes, democratic governments must not. Brexit was the result of the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history, of which this legal loophole scam was just one. #BBB Brexit Betrays Britain

No matter how much Leave voters wriggle, here is Brexit reality: 1) Exiting the EU has cost us £400-500 billion in forgone GDP growth 2) £150-200bn in foregone tax collected 3) The SUM marginal gain of post-Brexit trade deals is essentially £ ZERO

Desperate failing , aging MP with a one dimensional outlook appears to think that it is more important to promote himself than to do his paid job in Parliament even as the Home Secretary is still speaking and taking questions.

🇪🇺🇬🇧 It is closer than ever The EU will offer flexibility on Schengen and the pound if Britain returns. Removing those two obstacles would bring support for rejoining close to 65%. In November, the EU will put these proposals to Burnham Labour leads on 32%, with its pro-European position helping drive that support. Rejoining the EU must be in Labour’s manifesto at the next British general election. renaissanceeurope.org/insigh…

It’s come to something very bad indeed that anyone is even talking about 1st use of nuclear weapons, whether against Iran or anywhere else. If it happens I shall urge revolution.
The most frightening thing isn't just the prospect of nuclear weapons being used against Iran. It's that we've reached a point where people no longer instinctively believe the US wouldn't do it. This is what the reputation of the United States has become. A country whose potential use of nuclear weapons is no longer dismissed as unthinkable. And I believe Israel's influence over American foreign policy has played a significant part in bringing us to this point. The damage to America's credibility and standing in the world should not be underestimated.

I was in court with Epstein for three days until his death. I was in court where 25 of his survivors read their victim’s impact statements. I have filmed at the Epstein Trump library, and this woman is telling the truth.
Must watch... she's so brave. “I was one of the child victims of Donald Trump.” Dr. Larissa Portnoff, a clinical psychologist in her 30s, says it began around age 8 and resumed at 16 and 17. She thought she’d escaped “a pedophile ring,” calls Trump “clearly a pedophile and dangerous,” and says someone made an attempt on her life after her report. Her message: “We need to get the corruption to stop. We need to use our voices. We need to get Donald Trump out of office.” And to Trump: “If you think you’re going to intimidate me, Donald Trump, it’s not going to work. I'm not afraid of you.” Please share. #press #Trump #Corruption #Justice #Accountability #rape

When will our country wake up? The only reason Trump ran in 2024 was to keep his ass out of jail. He currently has his personal attorney in place as AG. He owns SCOTUS. He has both the House and Senate FOR NOW! We need to vote to end this nightmare. Wake up!

The idiots who went to France specifically to terrorise asylum seekers with tear gas and batons have been ordered to pay migrant charities £500 each. Whoever decided that punishment needs a promotion and a blessing from the Pope
