🚨🇬🇧 Turning Point UK's CEO was filmed offering an undercover reporter a menu of beatings, stabbings and killings through a Glasgow contact who says he arms the UVF
Al Jazeera’s undercover operation started in 2021 when a reporter joined the British offshoot of the American student group.
Its CEO Jack Ross, a Conservative candidate in 2023, introduced the reporter to Allan Nesbitt, a convicted criminal and self-described UVF member, agreed on camera to pay him to stage a fake pro-Zimbabwe rally, and priced out what Nesbitt’s friends could do to a person, from cutting faces to MURDER.
The UVF is the Ulster Volunteer Force, a Protestant loyalist paramilitary from Northern Ireland’s Troubles that killed over 500 people between 1966 and 1999, including 33 in one day in the Dublin and Monaghan bombings, and is still banned as a terror group.
Since the peace deal it has run mostly as a drug gang that kept the name and the guns.
Nesbitt reportedly met the reporter in a London hotel, offered to have a fictional business rival “finished,” claimed he’d personally stabbed a man to death, showed a shotgun and pistol on a video call and said the fee would buy weapons smuggled from Scotland into Northern Ireland.
Ross says it was a joke. The joke came with a price list, a weapons demo and a smuggling route, and the police now have a name and a video... and wasn't particularly funny.
Somebody in Turning Point UK’s donor base should be asking when the fundraising dinners turned into this.

Caroline Graham of the Daily Mail has spent years as Thomas Markle’s “rock solid friend” speaking to him most days, flying to the Philippines at his request, and sitting by his hospital bed providing “care and support.”
The Daily Mail platformed him relentlessly to attack Meghan.
Now reports say his own son found hundreds, if not thousands of child sex abuse images among his belongings in the Philippines and reported it to authorities.
What did Caroline Graham actually know about the man she described as a father figure?
And what did Dan Wootton know after years of giving him and the rest of the family a platform?
Authorities investigating this should be asking both of them hard questions.

Quite simply: Brexit ended free movement from Europe and Boris replaced it with a far more liberal immigration system for the rest of the world. Employers switched recruitment accordingly. Non-EU immigration then exploded. Brexit didn't require the Boriswave. Brexit gave Boris the power to create it. And he did.

Only one club of the 48 that have played in the Championship over the last decade has made an operating profit per @valuball
Eight have made losses exceeding £200m in that period (2015/16 to 2024/25).

I'm confused. I thought it was built on the graves of 13,000 Palestinians?

29 students.
That's the total number of Jewish students in the Bell report who said they've experienced antisemitism.
29.
Meanwhile, 30 Palestinians have been reported murdered by Israel in the past 10 days.
The Govt has allocated £7 million to tackle antisemitism across education
In England there are approx 14K Jewish students in non-Jewish schools

I cannot hide my disgust at the disgrace that is Matt Hancock and Boris Johnson. Two of the most appalling individuals.

Absolutely insane.
This administration and everyone in its orbit are more corrupt than basically every other government in history, combined!
“In late spring 2020, a source I knew to be reliable called me with a story,” writes Matthew Cole. “The Dutch government had hacked into Jared Kushner’s phone and monitored him as he accessed a Dubai-based bank account. What was odd, the source said, was that the money in the account—hundreds of millions of dollars—had come from a bank in Azerbaijan. Most importantly, Kushner appeared to have transferred significant amounts of money from the Dubai account to other individuals, including a warlord, a mercenary and a one-time hit man. The story sounded preposterous, I told my source. And yet.
Six months later, I found myself speaking with someone else about the UAE government and their use of mercenaries in conflicts around the Middle East and Africa when I asked, on a whim, whether they knew anything about Kushner and bank transfers from a UAE account. My acquaintance grew quiet. Then they replied, ‘Yes.’” Kushner’s lawyer denied the bank account existed.

Only 5,000 kids were surveyed, only 92 were Jewish, only 70 of 92 responded, and 29 said they had faced antisemitism at school. Only 2% said antisemitism was a big problem at their school and we're reclassifying it as a more serious form of racism based on that? Is this a joke?

Following the Covid Inquiry's damning verdict on @MattHancock, we've launched a petition to remove him from the Privy Council.
His actions led to thousands of avoidable deaths.
This is a first symbolic step towards accountability.
