Richard Tice tells Times Radio: "My family have known the Cottrell family for 50 years, they're a very successful aristocratic family."

Jarell Quansah has his red card ban extended to two matches. FIFA will consider an appeal, if the England defender can prove he’s either American or Argentinian or a brown envelope stuffed with cash

ICE claims that Araujo drove into one of their SUVs with his van and then tried to run over an agent.

There were no marks on the van and KHOU11's Jeremy Rogalski found surveillance footage showing ICE chasing Araujo and cutting him off.

Renee Good all over again.

“Last year, Microsoft made $101 billion in profits, got a $12.5 billion tax break from Trump & paid its CEO $96 million.

This year, it’s raising the price of an Xbox by $150 & eliminating 3,200 jobs.

Please don’t tell me corporate tax breaks create jobs. It never trickles down.” - Bernie Sanders

Countbinface on GMB today when asked if he had been to Clacton:
"I have not been to Clacton, based on the activities of the incumbent, I believed that was the correct process"

The Telegraph reports George Cottrell's mother made a £1m payment to Richard Tice's company, half of which was donated to Reform

And that George Cottrell loaned £80K to Tice

And they've already gotten us into wars Americans didn't want (Iraq, Syria, Lebanon) > Only Trump was stupid enough to go along with it...

Alan Shearer:

"When the referee goes back to VAR for Egypts goal & cancels it due to an interference at the start of play, but doesn't go back to VAR for Agentina's winning goal despite 2 interferences at the start of play... then we're watching a "theatre" not a football match.

Never before has a politician announced their intention to run for re-election on an explicitly pro-sleaze, anti-transparency ticket. Never before has a politician gloried in having enriched themselves by breaking the rules, and then demanded a mandate to continue doing so indefinitely
Nigel Farage’s 'Pro-Sleaze' By-Election Is A Sign Of Terminal Weakness
The Reform leader's desperate decision to call a back-me-or-sack-me by-election is a sign of a politician who knows he is finally being exposed for the man he really is, argues Adam Bienkov

Nigel Farage vs "the establishment"

He went to private school, worked as a stockbroker, has been a professional politician for 31 years, has his own TV show, is a brand ambassador for gold, is mates with POTUS, accepted a secret £5m gift, and owns five houses bought outright with cash

What a rebel

The allegations against Farage are mounting.

So he resigns to avoid being sanctioned by parliament.

This by-election is all about him, not the people of Clacton or the country.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social was right: "he will do anything...if it personally benefits him."

Amazing how a whole section of Americans who clearly know nothing about football have suddenly become SoccerBall™ experts just for the purpose of lecturing the rest of us about how it was 100% legit for their crook of a President to pressurise FIFA into unsuspending a player.

"US spy tech giant Palantir paid an effective tax rate of just 8% on their £25.3m UK profits. Most companies with profits above £250,000 pay 25%.
How is a company that’s won £670m in UK public contracts (including a massive £330m NHS deal) able to dodge our tax rules? "
