  1. This is getting really sad – watching the Guardian spam out article after article attacking Reform UK and Reform UK’s polling position not moving an inch.

  2. Once may be a mistake, twice may be coincidental but three times I think we have a pattern emerging. I wonder how far this will go once you turn over the stone you have no idea what will wriggle out.

  3. >There is no suggestion that any of the three committed criminal acts or had been aware Gill took bribes to promote Russian interests.

    This is an important part. The story isn’t that three more members of Farage’s Europe bloc were working for Russia intentionally, it’s that the one guy who is confirmed to have taken bribes to do so utilised his influence to get them to follow a script on a TV show.

    Basically, as it currently stands it’s just more wrongdoing by Nathan Gill.

  4. MI6 must know about all this surely, unless they are also compromised from within. With the bureaucracy and mismanagement of the UK govt by the Tories it would not surprise me.

    * The Russians have used plausible deniability and played the last 10-15 years well in terms of aggressive Geopolitics.
    * The Chinese have also taken another very interesting pacifism through capitalism approach, I’m sure their leaders have read Sun Tzu well. Become the #1 in the world when it comes to manufacturing, copy and replicate western ideals then continue to throw money on it to improve it until you are the dominant world power. Use soft power around the world to build roads and infrastructure.

    Blair and Bush decided crusading around the world chasing terrorist in mud huts and mountain caves was not enough, so wiped a chunk out of the middle east, in order to impose their western ideals and leaders (now we are reaping what they sowed).

    Let me know if you disagree with the above, I’d like to be persuaded or expanded upon the last 25 year narrative here. I’m trying to think about this topic as neutrally as possible and expand the narrative on the article to cover wider geopolitics and where we are today in a short reddit post!

  5. Brexit-Broke-Britain on

    Farage also used the exact same words, so he too has followed the pro Russian script. No surprise, but why does the headline refer to three others not four.

  6. Well, I’m sure we’re all terribly, terribly surprised that close associates of Farage aren’t working tirelessly for the country’s best interests.

  7. Farage claimed the party had been paid in crypto, Reform UK has so far not declared this

    They’ve legally got until the end of January under donation rules to declare the crypto and exactly where it came from
