There are 5 million reasons why @Nigel_Farage hasn't held a press conference in well over a month.

Struggling to recollect any legitimate concerns rioting after these abhorrent episodes. Maybe there's another agenda at play.

Later this week it will have been 50 days since @Nigel_Farage last held a press conference.
Given he's had so long to get his story straight, @annaturley is calling on Farage to answer 50 key questions about his secret £5 million "gift". It's time he finally came clean.

When Metropolitan Police officer Wayne Couzens kidnapped and murdered Sarah Everard, Nigel Farage released a five-minute video urging people not to attack men or the police.
Today, in response to the murder of Henry Nowak, he called for "pure cold rage."

Fortunately, Britain has a Bermuda-registered mass circulation newspaper owned by a French-domiciled billionaire, a television station owned by a Dubai hedge fund and a political party backed by a Thailand-based crypto tycoon to remind us of the importance of patriotism

Angela Rayner was dragged through every front page for weeks...
HMRC's verdict: NOT deliberate. NOT even careless.
Farage pockets £5 million and chooses not to declare it
So where's the wall-to-wall coverage?
Tell me this isn't a rigged game.

When I reported on Zahawi I got a handful of abusive messages. When he apologised & it turned out I was right, they all stopped.
But Polanski? Wild levels of abuse, which just ramped up when Polanski apologised & it turned out I was right.
Does the Green Party have a problem?

Hungary’s parliament sings “Ode to Joy” — the anthem of Europe — after Péter Magyar is sworn in as prime minister.
Hungary is once again a proud member of the European Union.

Siraj is a kind, decent Councillor who's served his local community with courage & dedication for decades. He spoke up to Starmer for Ceasefire in Gaza swiftly, on 24.10.23.
I was upset to see a cowardly, unfair smear campaign against him on local streets. He didn't deserve that.

5,000 social homes.
10,000 fewer families on the waiting list.
And the 25% local letting policy back to make sure social homes go to local residents.
@CllrSirajIslam built his record on housing.
Here’s what he’ll deliver as Mayor. 🎥

@CllrSirajIslam A synagogue was set on fire in Whitechapel this morning.
Our borough has been here before we know what it looks like when a community is targeted to make them feel they don't belong.
The arson, the abuse, the assaults.
In Tower Hamlets, we will not look away.
