@implausibleblog @SwailesRuth @Helen_Whately Don't confuse Helen with facts, especially around numbers. They're not her strong point

The number of such cases is fewer than 10 households according to DWP data because post-1988 immigration rules made it very difficult to bring additional spouses to the UK via family visas. These are legacy cases, often pension-age claimants Most of these cases came into the UK between 1979–1997 under the Conservative governments of Thatcher & Major Conservatives were also in government between 2010 and 2024 and didn't close this loophole But sure, get angry about a policy you could have stopped when you were in government but chose not to

Polygamy is illegal in the UK. But if you’ve married 4 wives overseas and moved here, you could claim up to £78,000 in benefits. Paid for by British taxpayers. That is absurd. Conservatives will end this.

@GBPolitcs This is a lie, the posts were made 2019-2026, and they weren’t private. @reformparty_uk stack the lies up.

"Hurt" is not an original by Johnny Cash. The song was written by Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails) in 1994 for the album The Downward Spiral. Rick Rubin had to insist several times on Cash recording his version, at first Johnny found the idea completely insane because the original version is industrial and noisy. At 71, already very ill, almost blind and with trembling hands, Cash completely transformed the band. The iconic video, directed by Mark Romanek, was filmed at the House of Cash (his own museum). June Carter Cash appears looking at him fondly, the video was shot in February 2003, a few months before she died (May) and Johnny himself (September). Trent Reznor was so moved that he declared, "This song is not mine anymore." It is considered one of the best covers of all time.

People are saying that Nigel Farage has asked Elon Musk to ban people from X for sharing this clip of him attacking his crony Robert Jenrick. Surely free speech champion Nigel Farage isn't that petty? But just in case, THIS is the video that you mustn't download or share

Too on point not to share. This is great, but too bad the Orange Felon’s enablers won’t let him see it. This Australian's reply to #Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect. "Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage. You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail. Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates. Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you. And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again. And you're calling Greenland poorly run? Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no. 'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years. And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess. So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth." - Tony Locke

Well it's all kicking off on the right. Christopher Harborne is suing Ben Habib for defamation. Nigel Farage is begging Rupert Lowe's Restore Britain to withdraw from the Makerfield by-election. Farage and Elon Musk are handbags at dawn. .....absolutely delicious.

Nigel Farage is complaining about foreign millionaires donating huge sums of money to far right populists who then use it online to spread hatred and division in our politics to affect the outcome of elections. Paging alanis morissette ..

“I see poor Nigel’s had his phone hacked. What did I say, Roy?” “You said, I wonder what bollocks he’ll come up with next.”

🚨 Danny Kruger just exposed Reform UK rotten moral compass on BBC. He admits his Makerfield candidates vile misogynistic filth graphic sexual abuse about Carol Vorderman and crude tits and arse comments about female rugby players is wrong then shrugs not going to defend it but bigger problems he is just an ordinary man. Give us a F**king break! This is the party that lectures Britain on values while platforming sleazy woman degrading candidates and calling it straight talking. Reform does not rescue Britain it drags it into the gutter. If they cannot condemn this degeneracy they have NO moral authority on anything. #ReformUKExposed #KrugerDodges #MisogynyNotOrdinary

Reform UK’s candidate won’t face questions by journalists, he only does Reform UK videos. He’s deleted his social and is hiding his career record. There’s nothing real or genuine about Rob Kenyon. He’s a Reform UK prop. #Makerfield

The former Chief Executive of the National Cyber Security Centre, on @Nigel_Farage's claims of Russian hacking.

Here’s just one detail from @thenerve_news #HarborneReceipts timeline. On the *exact same day* Christopher Harborne gives Reform £3m, Nigel Farage says Reform will lift cap on stablecoin ownership. Where does Christopher Harborne’s money come from, you ask? Stablecoins!
