Such privilege on display. This prick somehow thinks that by virtue of already huge entitlement he deserves more of it. That he controls a miles-radius round his lilywhite castle. You pay same tax as this douche. Do you get to dictate who lives half a mile down the road?

No wonder Piddington people are in such a state of fear about the prospect of asylum seekers being housed in the Bicester base.
This total throbber of a Parish Council chair Tim McNally has been telling them that their children will be murdered.

Since its foundation in 1824 the bravery of Royal National Lifeboat Institution volunteers has saved more than 146,700 lives at sea.
Hundreds of those volunteers have died attempting to save others. They are the best of us.

Hundreds of people block one of UK's busiest ports in the name of Stop the Boats, and the police do nothing and no-one is arrested.
Really? Sigh.

Farage told Congress last year that he never bans journalists from his events.
He spoke at the behest of an anti-abortion group, the ADF.
It's ironic, and pretty revolting, that Reform banned me from its conference after I reported that three anti-abortion groups are speaking at this year's event

The fallout from the collapse of this glacier - a torrent of mud surging down the valley - killed hundreds of people. Gone, in a flash. Those people were wiped out by anthropogenic climate change. Our governments are simply not responding quickly enough to this disaster which is already upon us.
An incredibly well-timed Landsat 9 pass captured the effects of yesterday’s catastrophic glacier collapse near the Nepal–Tibet border. The event was so massive that it was detected by seismometers around the world.

£5million for his security and Farage pretends he’s been threatened and won’t turn up to thank the people who managed his monstrous tantrum by-election, staying up through the night counting votes… or the voters who let him get away with his gross abuse of power. From start to end, an epic disgrace.

Essex police confirm Farage lied about them advising him not to attend the election count.
Presumably he didn’t attend because of the embarrassment of beating a bin - nothing but a farce and a hollow victory.
Today scrutiny will resume.
