Nigel Farage has said the only reason his 'gift' was revealed was because his computer was hacked and he is considering taking legal action against the 'hackers'. He doesn't seem to realise this makes it worse, he is complaining about people KNOWING about his massive 'gifts'.

And why was there no such approach on this story until the polls were closed?

@SangitaMyska Clearly not the right thing to do

Strong words from London Labour MP Catherine West as she declares Keir Starmer should outline his plans to resign as PM.

Nigel Farage works for Steve Bannon, as does the Far Right all over Europe.

@LBC Trashy rag of a media outlet Matthew right only decent presenter

'I would never have assembled words in that order...' Caller Anthony's analysis of Keir Starmer's unpopularity leaves Matthew Wright at a loss for words.

@RobertJenrick So bitter Bitrick

Genius. Bring back the guy who gave away our gold reserves to advise on ‘economic resilience’. What could possibly go wrong.

@Peston Stop trying to ruin the country

In normal circumstances, Keir Starmer’s appointment of Gordon Brown as his special envoy on global finance and Harriet Harman as his adviser on women and girls would be seen by Labour MPs as sensible. Tapping the wisdom of the party’s elders to solve important problems would be viewed as competent if dull technocratic government. However these are not normal circumstances for the Prime Minister. His MPs see him as responsible for yesterday’s electoral catastrophe. He indeed has insisted he does take full responsibility. And that is why the appointments are in fact incendiary. Because they are seen as - at best - irrelevant to the crisis faced by the government, and for many MPs and ministers they are provocative, an insult, a manifestation - in the words of one minister - “that he simply doesn’t get it.” This is what one senior and influential member of the government told me: “The Harriet and Gordon thing and his Guardian article [in which he said the government should neither move left or right] has annoyed Labour MPs even more. It’s tone deaf. I think people give him until Monday to actually show he gets it or he’s done.” To be clear, this minister would often try and defend the PM. Not any more. And that’s not altogether surprising, given that few Reform voters are likely to say “I was thinking of voting for Nigel Farage but I’ve changed my mind now that Keir has tapped Gordon to create an international off-balance-sheet finance facility for defence spending.” Another minister told me that the preference of MPs and Labour’s members would be for Starmer to stay and turn around the performance of the government, but they were increasingly doubtful he was capable of doing this. This minister’s mood, and that of his colleagues, he said, “was increasingly of despair”. Perhaps the biggest problem was that Starmer “is seemingly unable to give a clear coherent sense of direction for the country.” “Voters will forgive you many of your mistakes if you can tell them where you want to take them. But he has been incapable of doing that, and none of us know whether he ever can.” Even those members of the Cabinet who are genuine loyalists talk about him on the basis of hypothesis and guesswork. None of them seem to actually know what makes him tick or what he wants (one told me he was planning to set out his own policies more publicly in the hope that perhaps the PM would adopt them). In that sense Starmer seems more isolated than any prime minister I’ve ever known. A very big test for him comes on Monday, when he is expected to give a speech that will be billed as his agenda for the rest of the parliament but is in practice a plea to his MPs to give him a last chance. I asked a minister what MPs would need to hear to be clear that he does understand their concerns, that he “gets it”. This was the reply. “I mean god knows because I dont think he does. It’s not anything anyone else can tell him it has to come from him.” And that, in a nutshell, is why Starmer is in so much trouble.

Instead of being fully transparent about the £5 million Nigel Farage received from a dodgy crypto billionaire, Nigel Farage is now claiming that his computer was hacked and that he's seeking legal action. Call me cynical, but it seems like a tactic to distract people.

"Oooh, I don't know what Keir stands for ?" DECENCY! "What's he doing?" #FixingBritain "Name just one thing he's done" Well, recently, he kept us out of the Iranian war! Left to Farage + Badenough, we would have joined "Anything else?" Lots...

@RishiSunak You're a joke go spend your ill gotten gains

By profession and by temperament, our present Prime Minister is a campaigning barrister. Voters’ frustration that nothing is changing will only grow unless he does these three things 👇 thetimes.com/business/econo…

Today, I’ve been honouring a longstanding commitment to a group of determined school Mums to join them to raise funds for SEND-friendly playground facilities. When the going gets tough…

Wow! It looks like there are other multi-million pound gifts to Farage that haven’t yet been revealed. Astonishing. Levels of personal corruption never before seen in UK politics.

@ZackPolanski You thought @TheGreenParty was going to do so much better...but they see through you Zack right through to the fraud actor hypnotist that you are

The Green Party go from 2 seats to 28 in Lambeth - and Labour lose control! This is happening in our cities and in many of our rural targets too. People voting Green Party councillors to help end Rip Off Britain! Join.greenparty.org.uk

@bbclaurak Grow up Catherine would be my advice

Could this be the trigger ? Labour MP Catherine West tells the BBC, she’ll stand to trigger a contest if the Cabinet doesn’t challenge Starmer by Monday

@YNWA2008 @BenInRushcliffe @annemflfc @thisisyourparty You make me want to throw up with that disgusting language and I had a really nice dinner...so fk off and grow up

@BenInRushcliffe @annemflfc @thisisyourparty No cunts feeling any richer you idiot

It's not just Starmer that needs to go. It's permanent austerity. It's privatisation. It's a political system rigged for the profiteers, not the people. It's the entire rotten Westminster establishment.

@thisisyourparty Labour have ended austerity. Largest uplift in public spending ever.

Nigel Farage earns over a million pounds a year. Still claims £160,900 in expenses (benefits) Moans about people abusing benefits. But not himself, of course.

@Karendo32243218 @GT4htxj @BROKENBRITAIN0 @Keir_Starmer @molezzzzz Childish freaks. Grow up...the way you laugh .. so embarrassing

@GT4htxj @peaheadtee @BROKENBRITAIN0 @Keir_Starmer @molezzzzz 😂😂😂😂

We must respond to the message that voters have sent us and break with the status quo once and for all. We must confront the big challenges the public face with real answers. That is how we will deliver the change that people are desperate for and build a stronger and fairer country. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
