🚨 NEW: "The UK has been colonised by immigrants," Man Utd co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has told @EdConwaySky. “You can't have an economy with nine million people on benefits and huge levels of immigrants coming in,” he said. “I mean, the UK has been colonised. It’s costing too much money. “The UK has been colonised by immigrants, really, hasn't it? I mean, the population of the UK was 58 million in 2020, now it's 70 million. That's 12 million people.” He also said of the PM: “I don’t know whether it's just the apparatus that hasn't allowed Keir to do it or, or he's maybe too nice - I mean, Keir is a nice man. I like him, but it's a tough job and I think you have to do some difficult things with the UK to get it back on track, because at the moment I don't think the economy is in a good state."

In 2021, 60 Jewish associations in Germany warned that the AfD party was "a hotbed for anti-Semitism" (juedische-allgemeine.de/poli…), a party who gave Farage a standing ovation in 2017 as their honoured guest (news.sky.com/story/farage-sa…). For anyone saying "it was all 50 years ago".

Peter Ettedgui who was at Dulwich college with Nigel Farage, "My most vivid memories of my school life is Farage repeatedly coming up to me and knowing that I am Jewish saying 'Hitler was right' and 'gas them' which was frequently followed by a hissing sound of escaping gas" "As the grandchild of a couple who escaped from Hitler and Nazi Germany, whose families left behind perished in the holocaust" "This was extremely wounding and upsetting" #Newsnight play the clip of Farage denying the accusation asking, "How do you feel about that?" Peter Ettedgui, "Really angry"

Two strikes yesterday - one in Al-Kuma by SAF killing at least 16 civilians and one on a shelter in Al Fashir by the RSF, killing at least 53 civilians. The people of N. Darfur are experiencing a special kind of hell.
At least 16 civilians were killed in a Sudanese army drone strike on Saturday in the town of Al-Kuma, east of El Fasher in North Darfur, local community leaders said. sudantribune.com/article/305…

This is madness and I'll keep saying it because it should be impossible but for the power of proper investment in youth football. There are fewer than 15,000 males aged under 40 in this country. Stunning @FaeroskFodbold

A masterclass in clear and concise messaging. He managed to incorporate several key messages, address pain points and answer the question in a coherent and measured way. This man presents himself with confident authority - a leader. It's been a while since we've seen this.
Zack Polanski, "I hear your anger. And I think you're right to be angry. I think we should all be angry when we've had 14 years of Conservative austerity that shut our libraries, shut our community centres, and then to say integration is a problem?" "How do you expect people to integrate when you've taken away their services?" "We need to make sure that all politicians are speaking about migration in a positive sense" "Of course there will be people who have problems with migration. But their problems are, they can't get a dentist appointment; they're not enough council homes; because we've not invested in our communities" "But none of these are problems of a black face" "These are the problems of multimillionaires and billionaires, and politicians who haven't taxed them properly" "We can change that" "They're all political choices. Let's make different political choices"

Stephen A. Smith on Serena Williams' cameo during the Super Bowl halftime show: "If I'm married and my wife is going to join trolling her ex, go back to his ass. 'Cause clearly you don't belong with me. What you worried about him for and you're with me? Bye. Bye."
