😂 How true is that. Reminds of Douglas Adams Deep Thought - with the answer 42 :-)
Andy Burnham wants growth for every region. There's an obvious lever to pull to achieve it. That delivers a £92 billion economic boost. Distributed across the UK. And especially to manufacturing-intensive areas in the Midlands & North. The answer to his domestic policy agenda? EU membership.

This completely demolishes Farage's carefully crafted outsider myth. Demanding a "million a year" from donors to cover lost earnings before agreeing to stand as an MP isn't public service—it’s a commercial transaction. Our democracy is being treated like a corporate franchise.
Farage said he would need ‘a million a year’ to stand as MP in 2024
Exclusive: Politician spoke to senior figures in Reform in March that year about covering lost earnings, sources tell the Guardian

As Reform are so aggressively attacking anyone who dares question Farage’s demands for security and claims he was never offered any, seems only right to highlight this actual fact👇🏼👇🏼
Patrick - Here for the craic❗️🤷🏼♂️😉@paddyopatrick.bsky.social · 3w agoIf Farage genuinely feared for his life he’d have taken an armed bodyguard, special car & driver offered last year, paid for by us But he refused it saying it was inadequate despite claiming to be the most “physically attacked” politician It’s as if he doesn’t want Police knowing what he does 🤔
The shamelessness of a political party which is led by a man who just weeks ago called for "pure cold rage" on the streets, shortly before migrants were literally burnt out of their homes, now accusing their opponents of "stochastic terrorism" against them, is quite something
They never did and he only lied. There has never been a more incompetent, lying and corrupt President of the United States….
So refreshing to hear a politician actually answer the questions
Has anyone screwed massively at work and got caught out, so they declared they’ve done nothing wrong, and quit to avoid facing consequences, then immediately reapplied to get their old job back❓ Asking for a nation, particularly voters in #Clacton Farsge did it .. so seems all the rage nowadays 🤷🏼♂️
The many ways in which Farage’s giant crybaby byelection stunt is backfiring: •the focus on his frenzied grifting intensifies •he can’t claim a meaningful win And, best of all… •”the impact is lessened when the only other candidate is wearing a dustbin on his head” giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...
Farage struggles to be ringmaster of his own circus
In forcing a by-election, the Reform UK leader’s bold move looks to be backfiring

Nigel Farage vs "the establishment" He went to private school, worked as a stockbroker, has been a professional politician for 31 years, has his own TV show, is a brand ambassador for gold, is mates with POTUS, accepted a secret £5m gift, and owns five houses bought outright with cash What a rebel
A timely reminder Nigel Farage wants to - leave the ECHR - repeal the Equality Act - Strip back workers rights - Lift restrictions on exploitative zero-hours contracts - repeal the Renters’ Rights Act which abolishes “no fault evictions” PLEASE DON’T FALL FOR IT youtu.be/KxOQRt8PQys?...
If UK media actually explained Nigel Farage’s policies to the public no one would be supporting him
