Time to admit the truth: Brexit has been an unmitigated economic failure, says The Telegraph.
Brexit Effect:
UK GDP down 8%
Investment down 18%
Productivity down 4%
Employment down 4%
Immigration not cut
No trade benefits
No regulatory freedom
Why do some still vote for Farage?

Great culture can save lives. Literally.
Amazing letter in today’s @thetimes.com about Tom Stoppard
When I hear Farage talking about rounding up and deporting hundreds of thousands of human beings, and threatening those with leave to remain or settled status, I cannot help but think of the schoolboy sidling up to me and telling me that “Hitler was right”

open.substack.com/pub/heatherc... “Not only does this agreement sell out Ukraine and Europe for the benefit of Russia—which attacked Ukraine—it explicitly separates the U.S. from NATO, a long-time goal of Russia’s president Vladimir Putin.” This is a complete capitulation to Russia - it’s treachery
Gosh. What a surprise.
Yep. And to think that so many people think this man is some sort of hero is such a sign of our twisted times.
NEW: The British politician, his Russian intelligence handler & a Kremlin plot against the US & Ukraine.
My new piece about Nathan Gill and Nigel Farage for @thenerve_news in which we ask:
Why, even now, is no-one asking questions?

This is more like it.
In Clacton, average wage is a little over minimum. My kid's nursery gives away free fresh produce and milk to struggling parents. Affordable housing is virtually non-existent. And this clueless millionaire isn't doing ANY constituency work for his pay! Keep at him on finances.
I'm a lifelong Labour voter. I won't hesitate to vote Plaid if necessary!
“Wales faces a choice of two futures in 2026. A future of hope and prosperity under a Plaid Cymru-led Welsh Government that offers real-world solutions to the challenges looming over our communities, or a future of hate, division and decline under Reform UK.”
After the former leader of Reform UK in Wales, Nathan Gill pleaded guilty to making favourable statements about Russia in exchange for money, worth reupping the FIVE QUESTIONS Nigel Farage is never asked about his fondness for Putin @bylinetimes.bsky.social
People dismiss glass ceilings because they can’t see them, but the bias is real. We’ve never had a woman president, not because of lack of talent, but because women face barriers men don’t. A deeply unqualified man beat highly qualified women, showing it wasn’t merit, it was internalized bias. #Pink
“The ECHR isn’t Brussels meddling. It’s the foundation that protects you from your own government.” 👏👏👏
Given the context and the crowd, despite Musk’s weasel words, this was a call for violence against the British state, from a foreign national who controls a major propaganda engine, and has engineered it to monetise hate
🔴Russell Jones's Week Moment: Do the Maths, Nigel
The media's obsession with Farage's monomaniacal immigration demands ignores the truth that we actually need more immigration, not less, argues @russincheshire.bsky.social

BBC Accused of Pro-Reform Bias as Lib Dems Launch Campaign to End ‘Wall to Wall’ Farage Coverage
They accuse the BBC of “following Farage around like a lost puppy” and have complained to Ofcom to demand fair coverage
bylinetimes.com/2025/09/09/b...
The BBC must balance their political news so it doesn’t boost Nigel Farage’s dangerous, divisive politics.
This is the quintessential Farage. Wild simplistic statements hitting a wall of reality when questioned.
It's easy to stand on a stage at a conference and make big promises. But as Reform UK run Councils are discovering - its much harder to actually do the work.

The parliamentary register of interests shows that Farage has made nearly £400,000 from GB News since August 2024, for c190 hours’ work. This suggests he is being paid more than £2,000 an hour by the news channel. All paid to Thorn In The Side Ltd owned solely by Farage
25% tax rather than HR
Rayner is absolute class. She's been a bit silly in organising her taxes, but that's not why they hate her. They hate her because she did not know her place.
"We are the patriotic party" says Nigel Farage, who just spent the past few days slagging off his own country to a foreign superpower, while encouraging them to impose sanctions on our economy if we don't do what they say
“After his MAGA bootlicking tour across the pond and describing the country he professes to love as ‘awful’ maybe he should crawl out of Trump’s pocket and face some accountability here in the UK.”

Since this is apparently a resigning matter, I’ll just leave this here…

Tax Avoidance costs the UK £200bn a year.
Why is Angela Rayner's tax avoidance a massive scandal but Nigel Farage's which is about 10x higher completely ignored.
Lets stop all Tax Avoidance.
Nigel Farage uses private company to pay less tax on £400,000 GB News earnings.
Poor attendance record in parliament, collects £94,000 salary+expenses.
Has used a trust fund in an offshore tax haven.
Previously described people who try to avoid tax as the “common enemy”.
“Farage claimed last year to have “bought a house” in his constituency but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home – given he already owns other properties”
