Femi is just as much of a grifter, so I won't bother watching that.

With so few MPs left and a desperation in the party, he can pitch himself as the best candidate to beat Starmer and, he may well be.

Rishi Sunak currently has higher opinion poll ratings on "who would make the best Prime Minister?" than Farage. The threat of Farage is overblown. Most people don't want him as Prime Minister.

Because we live in a society that doesn't read articles anymore, and gets all of their news just from headlines.

It's easier for editors to make a provocative headline than it is to make a balanced one.

I am not and never have been an apologist or supporter of Putin. His invasion of Ukraine was immoral, outrageous and indefensible. As a champion of national sovereignty, I believe that Putin was entirely wrong to invade the sovereign nation of Ukraine. Nobody can fairly accuse me of being an appeaser. I have never sought to justify Putin’s invasion in any way and I’m not now.

Bet they didn't quote this bit though, eh?

It's all just guesswork.

Never in doubt. 😂

Joe Biden warned of this in the 90s: https://www.newsweek.com/joe-biden-resurfaced-clip-russia-baltic-states-1997-video-1685864

Saying that Russia's actions are abhorrent and also saying that NATO expansion has given Russia an excuse are two perfectly legitimate viewpoints to hold.
