I don't care if he followed the rules and committed no 'wrongdoing', from a moral perspective it still looks dodgy as fuck.

Are we really supposed to just ignore your statement?!? I did not hurl insults at you. There is a very clear difference between being 'spiteful' and simply calling you out on a complete lack of ethics and basic morality. You are publicly admitting that you fully support political corruption, just as long as it puts a bit more money into your own pocket. As a founder and a business owner myself, I know exactly how hard it is to earn a living right now. But throwing away the rule of law and endorsing dirty money is exactly how a country rots from the inside out. Real business should be built on putting 'skin in the game' and working with integrity, not on turning a blind eye to politicians pocketing dark money ⬇️

It is time for the mainstream media to take notes on what 'real journalism' actually looks like. Instead of amplifying toxic populists and manufacturing division for daily ratings, we need you to follow the dark money. Independent journalists have been doing the heavy lifting for years while the establishment looked the other way. Take a moment to read this thread and learn how to truly hold power to account. We, the citizens, are watching and we see the clear difference. #RealJournalism #FollowTheMoney #DarkMoney #MediaAccountability #UKPolitics

To call this 'epoch-changing journalism' is an absolute insult to the independent journalists who have been risking their careers to report on this exact story for over five years. The undeniable truth is that the Murdoch media machinery spent years actively creating and amplifying this toxic populism. They gave him the platform and built the very division we are suffering from today. Now that it no longer suits their executive agenda, they simply decide to pull the plug. It is not bravery. It is just billionaires playing political chess with our society. One really has to wonder: Are you praising this as 'bravery' simply to secure a favourable position for yourself in the new media landscape, now that the establishment has finally decided to take him down? My gosh 🤬

Done! A huge thank you to @DeborahMeaden for launching this vital initiative. The short film before the survey features a powerful poem, and these lines resonated deeply with me: 'We know who we are at our best when we are together'. I have always been someone who prefers to contribute real ideas rather than constantly complaining from the sidelines. It is about putting 'skin in the game' and taking action. If you feel the same way, please take a moment to complete this survey. We need to understand more so we can actively build more! mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/de…

No, I am not crying. You just absolutely disgust me. You will be the one crying very soon, because Farage is finished. And when he falls, you will have no one left to support in lining their corrupt pockets.

Stop looking for excuses for your own corruption. You are openly admitting that you are willing to close your eyes to a politician pocketing money, simply because you hope to do the exact same thing for your own benefit. Disgraceful. Absolute rock bottom

Let us share this, spread the word, and show him the respect he truly deserves. People like him should be celebrated, not forgotten. Please retweet and let his story be heard! 📢 Huge respect for your immense courage @nw_nicholas . It is deeply saddening, and frankly shameful, that such selflessness and sacrifice are so rarely valued or appreciated by the very people who benefited most from your fight. True integrity is a rare currency these days. Thank you for standing firm 🙏

It is easy enough to deal with a corrupt government, but the real danger begins when we have corrupt voters. When people openly admit they do not care about a politician pocketing money as long as it suits their personal interests, they become complicit in the destruction of accountability. This is where the real moral decay lies

I will be the first to admit that I have a love-hate relationship with X. The platform used to be completely swamped with bots and far-right noise. But I decided to clean up my space. I restricted replies to keep the bots away, and I genuinely do not have bots anymore. I blocked all those supposedly ‘patriotic’ accounts on X, and since then, I have neither bots nor far-right attacks. As for the far-right, they avoid me like the plague now because I regularly send them my 'Alphabet of Manipulation' and block them instantly. You simply cannot reason with people who hate. And look at the scoreboard now. The noise is gone, but the real impact has exploded: Nearly 5 million impressions in a single year. Over 172,000 real engagements. For an anonymous, ordinary citizen journalist, is that not a truly fantastic result? Recently, just a day before Starmer's resignation, my account was suspended because I completely lost my temper and kept pasting the exact same comment under every media post. In that moment, I told myself: 'Brilliant, I am done with X for good.' But a few days later, they lifted the suspension. I decided to return for one simple reason, I deeply missed the people I had connected with here. I live alone. I believe that loneliness is the absolute greatest problem facing our society today. In fact, the business I am building is explicitly designed to fight this exact kind of social isolation. But there is another crucial reason I am here, to contribute to the fight against this political madness, against the Reform Party, and against Farage. I have literally delayed the launch of my business out of fear of the Reform Party, Farage, and for my own future. Until I see that they will not succeed in returning to power, I will not launch it. I am fighting them for my future, for our collective future, and for the future of one of my daughters who lives here in the UK. Let me be entirely clear. If we face a GE and there is any chance of Farage becoming PM, I will not only leave X, I will leave the UK entirely. My core values come first. I already left my own country once because of right-wing extremists, and I will not stay here if they come to power. Everything I am, everything I hold dear as a value, is in direct conflict with their values. And honestly, from the bottom of my heart, I truly hope this is the beginning of the end for Farage and their politics. Fingers crossed that our institutions do what they are supposed to do 🤞 This country is my new home 🇬🇧❤️ I adore this country, I adore these people, and I absolutely adore London. And I will not leave without fighting first for everything I believe this country and its people truly stand for. One of the most powerful ways to stop feeling lonely is to feel like you belong somewhere. I belong to a circle of people right here on X. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to every single one of you ❤️ Because of you, I feel less alone 🥰 Looking closely at my data, I realised that the posts that touch people the most are the ones where I am completely raw and honest. Like this true story: 'When I was a nine-year-old schoolgirl, my teacher asked us to write a news article. She told me, 'All I want to know is Who, What, Where, When, and Why.' It took me two attempts, but I finally produced a piece that she said satisfied exactly what a reader needs to know.' In a world drowning in engineered political illusions, people are starving for real human connection. You can buy the bots, but you cannot fake the warmth of a community that stands together. ❤️🍒🌿 #AccountabilityCollection #CitizenJournalism #KindnessEconomy #FightLoneliness #LondonLife #PoliticsMatter #TruthWins

If you put as much effort into him as you did with Starmer, he probably will. The only difference is that Farage has well over 20 million reasons to quit. Starmer only had one - the media. #UKPolitics #MediaBias #ReformUK #Farage #Starmer

It’s bizarre seeing the super pro-Reform accounts on here relentlessly tweeting they don’t care about Nigel Farage’s undeclared gifts - if Starmer/Burnham/Badenoch had done it, they would be spitting blood

RT @bsd_junkie: @Cherryopenmind Corruption is borne from the desire for wealth.

Even if I live for another 100 years, I will never understand how this country, the cradle of democracy and the very cradle of journalism, has allowed this to happen. For ten whole years, brave journalists have laid out the concrete evidence. The Russian embassy meetings, the shady deals, and the blatant collusion. The truth has been staring everyone in the face. Yet, a decade later, we still fail to see real accountability. How can a system with such a proud history of a free press let the 'master of the grift' walk away untouched for so long? It is exhausting to watch the truth being pushed aside while the political theatre continues 😳 Real accountability means having skin in the game. Ten years is far too long for a dangerous illusion to last.

Time to start a new collection. Let us call it 'The Accountability Collection'. Another scoreboard update, and the algorithmic vanity is crumbling. Jake Richards MP (backed by @BBCPolitics ): 16,000 views 40 likes. An 'unimportant' citizen speaking the truth: 631 views 51 likes. Seriously, come on, @UKLabour What on earth is going on with you? You can buy the views, Jake. You can get the mainstream media machine to blast your face to thousands. But you cannot force the public to like the false choice and undemocratic stabs in the back you are trying to sell. When 16k people watch your narrative and walk away leaving just 40 likes, the message is loud and clear' the public is tired of the spin. Honesty wins the room every single time. #UKPolitics #Accountability #Democracy #TruthInPolitics

I do not do conspiracy theories, Clare, but looking back at the last two years and connecting the dots, a very clear pattern emerges. What do you think about this⬇️ The narrative that Reform was unstoppable and that Farage would win the next General Election was actually pushed from inside the Labour Party itself. High-ranking figures actively stoked this fear, and the media eagerly grabbed it, not just because of their appetite for drama, but because of a desire to profit and Farage will protect them. They need to secure the next election to ensure their financial interests remain protected shielding crypto networks, gambling lobbies, and everything else operating behind the scenes. Through my own research into the timeline of these events, I realised it was actually the core team around Andy that took the lead in manufacturing and pushing this specific narrative, systematically spreading the fear of Reform. I do not deny that Reform won in certain local elections, nor do I deny the poll results. But we need to talk about UK polling, because I do not trust it at all. We know these polls used people from sources like the postcode lottery. We also know that the Reform Party harvested data from millions of people across the internet and is currently in the High Court with the Good Law Project over exactly how they took and used that data. When you look closely at these polls, it is obvious they were used to manipulate the actual outcomes of the local elections later on. Labour used the anger of local councillors who lost seats to direct the blame onto outsiders. They needed a massive bogeyman to justify an internal coup and keep voters controlled by fear. It allowed them to script the perfect theatrical setup in Makerfield. It feels like a plot written by a top screenwriter' convincing the public, and especially their own members, that he is the only one capable of winning the next General Election. Staging a massive victory over Reform in a small local seat, and suddenly the doors are wide open for him to march in and become Prime Minister. This was a long-planned operation, stretching back two years rather than just one, and in the last few months, the co-conspirators could not even hide it anymore. But they are left with one final, and perhaps their biggest problem: dealing with their own members. It feels like a brilliantly engineered political and financial illusion.

Scoreboard update: Karl Turner MP: 163 An 'anonymous, unimportant' citizen: 316 It turns out that having 'MP' next to your name cannot buy the one thing the public actually craves' honesty. When a backbench politician spends his time running away from accountability, the electorate notices. No ethics, no morals, and now, outvoted on his own turf. Just a regular citizen with skin in the game, but the numbers speak for themselves. Game over, Karl 🤣🤣🤣 #Politics #Accountability #EthicsMatter #Truth #Scoreboard

….had sent his legal docs to Russian embassy marked ‘For your eyes only.’ And the message: ‘Have fun with this’ 19.05.2019.

I will never forget it. A year ago, I stumbled upon an investigative piece by a local British journalist, I think from Kent. He had mapped it all out' detailing the gambling lobby, Cottrell's operations, and his moves into Montenegro. A few days later, I went back to find the link. It was completely gone. I searched every keyword. Nothing. Now, seeing @carolecadwalladr expose how The Spectator ran interference and how Carter-Ruck was hired, the puzzle is complete. The threats worked. As Carole rightly says, UK journalism is becoming a 'desert' because of this legal terror, allowing the truth to vanish right before our eyes. They can clean the internet and threaten local journalists. But they cannot erase the memory of those who saw the truth before it was wiped. #Journalism #Truth #FreedomOfThePress #MediaEthics #FairSociety
