He needs a way to get around the MSM and get his message out. The usual channels won't give him air time.

I say this all the time. Why can't they see it.
Zuckerberg is as bad as Musk, just quieter
✍️ Atlantic circulation collapse could come sooner than expected Brian McHugh interviews Professor Sybren Drijfhout, lead author of the new report, who explains why cutting carbon dioxide emissions to net zero is becoming even more urgent to prevent AMOC collapse and climate disaster.
My family & others like them - the neurodivergent, disabled etc - whom the govt also seems to want to demonise for lacking resilience & being lazy. Which is so far from the truth.
Performative climate denialism at its worst: Tories and Reform trying to outdo each other in stupidity. #KeepItInTheGround #NoNewOil www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Who is funding Reform and what do they want? We take a look
And the attendance issue refuses to address the broken school system pushing so many out. Stoking division that send kids and parents are just lazy and lack resilience. Causation and Correlation.
I am furious. And Tories & Reform in UK all pushing back to fossil fuels and Labour seemingly too scared to stand up for what's right for now and the future.
Reform UK in Leicestershire have appointed Elliott Allman as their Branch Chair. This means Joseph Boam has been booted out of another role. And yes, it’s the same Allman that uses the term ‘black c*nt’ to describe people.
It just gets worse.
Please help me welcome to Bluesky @drdebhoury.bsky.social - brave, brilliant, and principled. abcnews.go.com/Politics/vid...
Happens in UK too with labour. Unable, seemingly, than try to ape or respond. Neither of which is useful. Frustrating voter base & never convincing those who vote elsewhere to come to them.
Why don't they just be honest & say they get a bank card with the funding on and it's tracked. They can't buy luxury goods. See @fleetstreetfox.bsky.social for some background on this.
Utterly outrageous. The ECHR is your friend. If these people bothered to do any research they'd see Farage is just playing them. Check out @bearlypolitics.co.uk ABC of the ECHR
These same graffiti sprayers will be spitting when Reform strip away their rights. That's the thing with populism - it doesn't just target what you don't like, eventually it comes for you
Three simple things your MP should do from @99organisation.bsky.social 99-percent.org/three-things...
Nigel Farage has spent the last decade setting the agenda on immigration, and getting his way on it. How’s that working out? www.thenewworld.co.uk/james-ball-n...
@bearlypolitics.co.uk on it again! If you're a SEND family then you need and are using the ECHR to fight for support. The fact folk are happy to have rights stripped away just so they can speak their darkest thoughts out loud is grim.
Farage defines a terrible ‘new normal’ for British politics, but he hasn’t created it www.counterfire.org/article/fara...
I have 2x AuADHDers & many don't see the level of care they both need. To have the govt attack the disabled & send system & carers is appalling. They're not at fault for their needs & they look ok doesn't mean they are. I'm exhausted & they're exhausted.
Seen it again this morning in comments on report in our local 'paper'. All of them just glad they can be openly racist & not realising the implications Reform will have for them.
I'm disappointed in Rylan. He needs to understand the impact and reach he has. Normalising hate w.out facts.
Hard to avoid the conclusion that the BBC - whether by accident or design - is increasingly a footsoldier for Farage
Rock was running out of steam. Then came a 25-year-old from Jersey with an album that put its heart back on fire. Frederic Frommer on the legacy of Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Born to Run’.
And SEN children raising legal challenges for failure to meet need.
It bothers me that today I had to point out… To former Tory MP @PhilipDaviesUK That the Hillsborough families invoked the ECHR in their fight for justice Because he, like so many, either doesn’t know …or is being disingenuous about the vital protections the ECHR affords us.
As SEND parents we often have to use parts or the ECHR as we battle for support. In fact, the children use it as it's they who have to raise a legal challenge. Don't start me on the send system. Whole other rant.
Because this was never about immigration. Not really. He just needs to galvanise enough voters who lack curiosity and empathy.
The world needs Respair - let's reactivate this obsolete word and use it and look for it or generate it, in our own actions.
Adaptive learning is coordinated across behaviour, time and neurobiology (from synapses and dendrites, to astrocytes and the systems level). If you’ve ever wondered how noradrenaline helps shape these multiscale learning processes, you might like this: www.cell.com/trends/cogni...
Which I hope would then roll across and influence the world - the UK is also on a race to a cruel bottom.
Why NASA is more important than you ever thought it was (and we already knew it was VERY special and important).
#skylargrayson thanks so much for this. It's fascinating. I will prob forget & have to rewatch a dozen times but honestly I'm so pleased I found your postings!!
Very interesting. 🌜🌝🌚
I don't understand half of this because I'm hopeless with science BUT I do know this is amazing! Also now following for more learning my brain will promptly forget. 😬🙄
ALL MEDIA QUESTIONS ARE DIRECTED TO PRAISE THE WHITE HOUSE. This tells you what the “coverage” will be. Shut this stuff off. There are no news.
I know. It's really sad.
This is just next level insanity. In January this year, Reform picked Sharon Carby, aged 70, from Bradford, to run as their Croydon Mayoral candidate. There was just one rather significant problem. She had sadly died in July 2024. insidecroydon.com/2025/08/27/f...
Reform censorship of the press at local level comes to Nottinghamshire which is odd given Farage and Reforms claim that freedom of speech doesn’t exist in the UK So let’s get this right Reform champions free speech as long as it’s what they want to hear.. More weapons grade Farage hypocrisy then 🤷🏼♂️
Ha! My lad has the Pylon Watchers one.
Keir Starmer's political strategy of trying to position himself as Farage with better administrative skills would be morally reprehensible even if it were working. It does not appear to be.
As we've seen across history, the populist playbook used by Farage is ugly, powerful and incredibly destructive. We know where it will lead if we don't stop it.
If I only could make a deal with ... the Taliban and get them to swap our... , Good grief. Is this where we are now? Imagine what his next move would be when This doesn't solve the 'problem'.
Let's make sure good stuff doesn't get buried. By bad stuff or reform 'policies'
Whodunnit for your Autumn reading list !
These were the words I was looking for. "That is not policy. That is barbarism" www.politics.co.uk/mp-comment/2...
My husband said this - R4 was really poor.
"Lucy Connolly is no martyr or free speech warrior. She’s not a victim or a political prisoner. She’s a convicted hate monger... Her words were part of the kindling that set fire to this country". Essential piece for understanding the absurd lionising of Connolly. Well worth reading in full.
Awful people. As an aside - As the parent of 2x AuADHDers who had to fight for support every step of the way costing £1000s - I imagine that whilst they may push their agenda they wouldn't support anyone who needed it. Also I don't want my daughter thinking her only job is baby factory.
Those are not the lyrics I've been singing. ... Next you'll tell me it's not trombalease. 🤣
Dictator-esque Nigel Farage plans backing torture, jailing kids and paying jihadis. Scrap UK human rights protections, lock up women and children, jeopardise peace in Northern Ireland, risk going to war with the church. Opposes worker rights, supports fracking. This after supporting Brexit.
Maybe @marshfamilysongs.bsky.social can do a song?
I just read this in Anna's voice and then silently sang the Coronation Day song from Frozen. I'm weird.
Labour should have this running on a big screen on the side of a bus. Recycle the bus the Tories promised NHS millions on post Brexit.
Well colour me shocked.
You can easily vote it in, but you cannot vote it out.
The MSM news is causing me to lose my *hit . Simply cannot have it on.
Aye, my mum would love it!
Gorgeous here in Derbyshire this morning but on way home the most terrific rain storm - roads flooding, temps plunging. All feels v.autumnal
Couldn't happen to a nicer chap.
Follow the money and the under-pinners
I was due a parcel pick up today & received no confirmation of time & parcel still there. Call to help no says sorry technical difficulties and cut me off
Trouble is he knows how to play his supporters like a fiddle - they'll never bother to understand this or consider wider implications of his 'policies'
Nigel Farage confirms the new Reform UK campaign has been successful in achieving its main aim.
Britain isn't the US - but is Christian nationalism becoming a political force here? I spoke to US author Katherine Stewart about dark money, and the growing transatlantic ties, from Nigel Farage and JD Vance to Paul Marshall and James Orr. New on Democracy for Sale
Worth your time watching this. Includes a few details other media seems to omit.
Crikey!
Disgraceful.
This absolutely. The crash of 2008 broke the system and fascism and many other dark forces flooded through the cracks.
Lib Dems: “Of course Nigel Farage wants to follow his idol Vladimir Putin in ripping up the human rights convention. Winston Churchill would be turning in his grave."
On Reform's press conference, Lib Dem Deputy Leader Daisy Cooper: “Farage’s plan crumbles under the most basic scrutiny. The idea that Reform UK is going to magic up some new places to detain people & deport them to, but don’t have a clue where those places would be, is taking the public for fools."
Bollocks Sky News. So sick of this. He’s good at taking advantage of August and grabbing the limelight but Parliament returns soon but faridge be in the US doing speaking gigs. Utter charlatan. His stench pours through the screen and now my office stinks of nicotine, gin and onion.
Good thread. Lets hope other parties keep highlighting real implications of Farage policies, beyond the limited immigrant 'argument'
He must do this. He needs to do it in such a way that the MSM isn't allowed to direct the narrative. He also needs to stop attacking the vulnerable as scapegoats (disabled, SEN etc) & deliver on his promise of clarity.
"There is a moral implosion at the top of the Tory Party as people who failed spectacularly on immigration now hawk dangerous extremism to claw back relevance. And it risks civil unrest on a scale we haven't seen since the early 1980s” www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...
Off to send a letter.
Absolutely terrifying. How can people think this is good?
Oh.
Once more for the dimwits at the back: a) Lucy Connolly pleaded guilty. b) She was convicted under legislation introduced under Thatcher. c) She was sentenced under guidance brought in under Boris Johnson. d) fuck off.
When Parliament reopens, Nigel Farage will be in the US, representing his Clacton constituents by speaking at a conference for MAGA morons, on what is his 10th trip to America since becoming an MP.
Oh.
Take it literally
The only small boats and immigrants around us are lovely tourists on the canals. Still woke up this morning to every lamp post and bridge with a flag on and every little island & zebra 🦓 crossing badly striped in red. 🙄
Just watched Countryfile & the chap was asked where the Yorkshire dialect came from. His response: Germanic in origin. Because everywhere is a melting pot.
Same in the UK with Reform (who has many of the same donors as GOP). X
Nigel Farage must not be allowed to slander Britain as broken
Maybe Nigel could have a word when he's over there speaking, as parliament opens.
Also, 500,000 a year are leaving! The low birth rate means we are 440,000 short every year. We are facing an unprecedented population crisis, and no one is talking about it... #refugeeswelcome #migrantswelcomehere ##nobodyisillegal
Just for perspective, a few weeks ago roughly 100,000 turned up for the London Trans+ Pride march. By contrast fewer than 3,000 ACROSS THE WHOLE COUNTRY, have turned up to anti-asylum "protests". Yet we are meant to take the latter as "the voice of the people" and the former as "the minority".
There's a surprise
Indeed.
Fans Supporting Foodbanks @SFoodbanks will be in the Fan Zone before the match tomorrow. They are extremely short of supplies right now, so if you are able to, please bring along a bag and drop it off with these very dedicated workers on your way in. 💙🙏
I do wonder how many protesters against migrants in 'hotels' are from Perth or even Scotland. I think I see at least one England shirt
Nice!
Her post was horrendous, but what's more infuriating is the media ignoring that wasn't her only racist post & she laughed about it all on WhatsApp. She's a vile racist who should never be given a platform to spout hate.
The real 'two tier' divide in British politics is between the wife of a Conservative councillor calling for refugees to be burnt alive, being treated as a brave 'political prisoner', and the protestors calling for the end of mass starvation and genocide, being treated as domestic terrorists
No she wasn't. She was found guilty of breaking the law.
