French forces held a fierce defensive perimeter around Dunkirk and lost 18,000 souls. 40,000 became POWs. Without their resolve we wouldn’t have our nation’s story. It’s estimated 20-60k French resistance fighters died during the war. These fuckers really are vile bastards 😡😡

Unelected nobody Zia (Muhammad Ziauddin) Yusuf of Reform says Britain is being invaded by foreigners and wants to use huge Navy Warships to round up teeny weeny inflatable boats which is like using a tank to catch a rabbit 🙄 Fun fact - Yusuf’s parents migrated to the UK from Sri Lank in 1980’s..
Nigel Farage just took a question from a 'journalist' at his press conference, who turned out to be his former chief adviser Raheem Kassam, who asks him why the media are being so unfair to him
I'm absolutely furious that facts and information like this are allowed on social media while every Reform MP is working so hard to spread misinformation and lies and stir up our gullible supporters who will believe any old bollocks.
I honestly despair of the BBC sometimes. In the middle of the declaration of the results of a pivotal mayoral election in Manchester at 11pm, #Newsnight has to finish so we can get the bloody weather forecast.
Nigel Farage (2016), "It's legitimate to say.. If people feel that voting doesn't change anything" "Then violence is the next step"
#Newsnight has been on for 15 minutes and I’m still waiting for the first pronouncement from Nigel Farage via Nick’s phone.
This morning Andy Burnham asked the media to stop panic-mongering about every social care idea that gets thought about, so the country can have a grown up conversation about the best way forward. Straight away, the Times and iPaper throw up their hands and print scare stories about a Death Tax.
🚨 WATCH: Andy Burnham asks the media to stop speculating on his policies "Can we not let the country look at this in a clear eyed way without all the hype and overwriting of some of these issues?"
So, Farage has another hissy fit about ‘the establishment’ not including him in social care talks even though he excluded himself by sticking his snout so deep in the trough he triggered several investigations into his insatiable greed. Pipe down you utter clown. www.lbc.co.uk/article/refo...
Reform MPs complain that Farage was not invited to social care reform talks - but his resignation means he is unable to | LBC
The Reform UK leader hit out at Mr Burnham for ignoring his party which 'led over 300 national opinion polls and represents thousands of councillors and millions of Britons across the country'

“ #Newsnight used to be a serious programme of investigative journalism. Now it’s just a glorified podcast” #CountBinface
#Newsnight must apologise for reading Farage tweets unchallenged. Will you apologise? But surely you will apologise? Just say sorry? When can we expect an apology? Are you sure you don’t want to take this opportunity to apologise? Last chance to just apologise for this?
I remember him opening the Liberal Party’s Conference: “We shall begin by singing the Tory Party Anthem - I’m Alright Jack, Pull Up The Ladder Quick” Now look at the Nazi twat.
Farage moaning about being left out of Burnham's conversation with other party leaders on social care is hilarious. Mate, you're not a sitting MP. Whose fault is that? I'll wait.
Farage having a strop about not being invited to discuss social care provision, is like Harold Shipman giving out for being excluded from a debate on GP home visits.
"Dear Diary Been doing my best to get Zack Polanski arrested for sharing an image on social media, because it's a fantastic distraction from that £5 million gift, Tice's dodgy donations and Reform plummeting in the polls"
#newsnight Reform are no longer ahead in the Opinion Polls what’s your excuse now?@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social Sack Gibb and Nandy
The BBC is facing pressure to apologise for reading out tweets from Nigel Farage and other unnamed "senior members of the Reform Party" on #newsnight. But #r4today chooses to have something else as its lead story, including a report from the tweet reading culprit, Nick Watt.
If Farage wants to make a point, why doesn’t he show up to be interviewed on #Newsnight, rather than messaging one of the presenters, who reads out his guff unchallenged. By the way, if Farage is currently a candidate in a by-election, don’t rules apply so Count Binface has a right to comment also?
"Fartage knows all the wrong people" 'Robert Bush of Hull , a former funeral director, is facing jail after admitting to 67 offences, including 30 counts of preventing the lawful burial of a body. Police found 35 bodies and more than 100 sets of ashes at his premises...' via Allan Sharpe
Switch on the Jeremy Vine show and, whatever the subject being discussed, see how long it takes for a caller to make it all about immigration. Today, just 4.5 mins. “Well the numbers have gone down a bit” mumbles Vine. THEY’VE ALMOST HALVED YOU FOOL. And this: @ is NOT an ampersand.
Millionaire pensioners don’t need the state pension. Thats a saving of £36 BILLION per year. That would solve the social care problem AND fund defence properly.
Here it is. My manifesto for the 2026 Clacton By-Election. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Join me, clean up Clacton and let's make 13th August Bin Day! #VoteBinface #VoteyMcVoteface #YesWeTinCan
National insurance is paid to give everyone free healthcare for life. Most of us use every penny we’ve paid in NHS care. NI is not some kind of state pension contribution. Withdrawing the state pension from the 3 million pensioner millionaires would save £36 billion per year. That’d help.
If I were Andy Burnham, I would keep this woman very much at arms length. apple.news/A9GWTSE4xRaS...

These upper-class twits have been hoarding our money for years, passing it around to each other while swindling their way into even more dosh. Now they’re trying to take control of the UK. They’re a cabal of criminals and the sooner they get banged up the better. apple.news/A-NE6hLPrRTe...

Opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games. King and Andy Burnham clapping all the teams on, but Mrs Parker-Bowles can’t be arsed and looks like someone just told her the smoking shelter’s burned down.
