Reform UK activists squabble over Nigel Farage’s £72m crypto donations plan
This should be the moment people finally realise that Farage has turned them into fascists. If you’re choosing this dangerous inhumanity over the rescue work of the RNLI, you’ve lost your minds to racism and hatred.
James F Ford51Many older people, who have supported the RNLI for years but have been brainwashed by GBNews and The Daily Mail, are going to have cognitive dissonance over this one. I hope they finally open their eyes to what traitorous little sh*ts Farage and the balaclava clad thugs are.
gec236.bsky.social43.. banning charities the likes of RNLI that save lives 😞 .. what a fucking monster he is 🚨.. this is the week .. this is the time when it really really got serious Fascism is truly here .. this government has to do something now .. where the fuck are they ?
Lady Macbeth41The RNLI must be devastated. All those years thinking their job was saving lives when apparently they were supposed to conduct immigration interviews before throwing the feckin rope.
New Martin Express40He's also advocating a breach of the various international laws and conventions that we're signed up to in regards to the laws of the sea. As a country that built it's power on a maritime tradition - he's a disgrace.
Hexenbeest 30Most Farage supporters have always been fascists, before he even came on the scene. He's just given them license to come out of the closet.
Tinah The Queenah 🇵🇸24Farage didn’t create these attitudes, he validates them. A lot of his appeal isn’t some coherent policy programme; it’s that he gives them permission to express prejudices they already held. That’s precisely why attacking the RNLI won’t put them off him. The bigotry isn’t a bug. It’s the attraction.
Otto English1513The RNLI rescued Luftwaffe pilots in WW2 because the organisation is there to 'save life at sea' - it's something to be immensely proud of. But as I've said many times before Farage and Co don't seem to have pride in Britain and its institutions beyond flags and crap Enoch Powell said 60 years ago.
Gabby HC37Dying in the Solent bc you and the lads took Dan's Dad's Jetski out without checking the weather and Hilarious Nigel The Legend proscribed the RNLI
John Lees10If the British media had anything about them, the headlines would be “Reform to make it illegal for lifeboats to save drowning people at sea.” But if the British media had anything about them, we’d still be on that sting that exposed Farage’s corruption rather than letting him set the news agenda.
Gill Tate10This is where we are in 2026. Looks like my dad wasted years of his young life fighting fascists for nothing. I'm so tired of people still being taken in by this charlatan. It doesn't take much research to see him for what he is.
Lars S. Sørensen9There has been too many "should-be"-moments about Farage. I've given up on Brits getting their act together.
Steven Drew7I realise Burnham is probably at the Everton match but can we have a Government response to this shit, please. Something along the lines of “Go fuck yourself, you corrupt racist cunt”
Maggie Duarte #fbpe7That should be the message across the media and all political parties, especially the government
seifert 🐢5Usch. Britternas högerpopulister har anammat Moderaternas retorik.
KeithG5Farage, Reform, Restore & their mindless, rabid, racist supporters are truly scum, promoting fascist levels of inhumanity.
Meryl O'Rourke4When racists tell me my family came here by "the proper channels", my family were brought here by The Red Cross. The WW2 govt did not rescue refugees, they asked for equiv 6 months wage pay for each refugee brought over by multiple charities. He knows this & know his followers don't.
Reform UK defy International Law "UN Convention on the Law of the Sea Article 98: Places a mandatory legal duty on states and the master of any ship to render assistance to any person found at sea in danger of being lost, and to proceed with all possible speed ..." www.facebook.com/groups/19585...
sootie123.bsky.social5Please donate a little to support this service who in the last year alone saved 272 lives by RNLI lifeboat crews 117 lives saved by RNLI lifeguards That’s 389 lives saved in total and more than one a day. Lifeboats were launched 9,058 times and helped 8,290 people. All done by volunteers. SELFISH?
John A Gordon5Funny there isn't a squeak from government, too busy running scared of the pound shop Nazi
Peter H4Reform doesn't consider coloured foreigners as people.
Clem Fandango4A donation to this site is the best answer to Farage. www.gofundme.com/f/buy-a-new-...
John Martin🇪🇺🔶 #FBPPR 👩❤️👨+👫🐶 Rtd🚒 #GetPRDone3Reform absolutely hate the idea of volunteers providing anything that they could monetise to their own advantage. The RNLI are like kryptonite to them.
Eleanor Rylance 🔶🌳🌍🇫🇷🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🇨🇦3It’s not the first international Reform proposes for ride roughshod over. They think they’re noble buccaneers. They’re actually just law breakers. The laws don’t apply to them- they only apply to other people.
Just a reminder Jim Ratcliffe can't stand for Reform or Restore. Because he claims to live in Monaco and therefore cannot be an MP. He doesn't pay any tax either, so I don't know why he is moaning about UK spending. Maybe he should pay some tax or actually fck off to Monaco.
John Wilks2Just a reminder: excessive wealth is theft.
infj-afreethinker.bsky.social1Ugly on the inside ugly on the outside...his billions don't seem to do anything for him. A linear relationship for every pound he extracts the same is extracted in empathy from his soul.
Tim Middleton1The bugger will probably donate £36 million to Farage.
Once again: this shit is not compatible with democracy. Not for Reform. Not for Labour. Not for any party. It has to stop, and the thread below spells out my idea for how to do that. Tell your MP. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
Chad's Grandad1The thing that makes these donations worse is they come from crypto which gets its value for facilitating organised crime i.e. moving money covertly for drugs etc. So if we don't go after this, the UK is borderline tacitally saying the proceeds of organised crime is fine in our politics
donnybhoy.bsky.social1What’s the point of complaining to fat Bob-the-shagger-Blackman? www.dailymail.com/news/article...
AR1We will end up like the USA. Who the fuck wants to live like that?
Adrie van der Luijt1Burnham continues to frustrate any attempt to prevent democracy being bought by far-right billionaires. The suggested cap doesn’t apply to Reform donors who have conveniently moved back to the UK, nor to those who donate through their UK-based kids.
Nigel Farage has returned to hosting on GB News after a hiatus of six months – and spent most of his own programme defending his own party’s mega-donors. @josiahmortimer.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2026/09/17/n...
pete-w.bsky.social7Absolute disgrace that we have a propaganda channel on UK tv masquerading as news! Isn’t this exactly the sort of thing that Ofcom is mandated to stamp out? We’re such a frustrating country; we’ll tut and clutch at our pearls, until it’s too late and the damage is done.
hengymraes6.bsky.social4Is it about time GB News was forced to rename itself Fascist Propaganda TV? Or something more accurate? Any suggestions?
Tim Lowe2Foreign funded influence operation continues to do whatever the hell it wants, for reasons. 🤷🏻♂️
Cabeys Odyssey 🇪🇺🇬🇧1Reform should be designated as a terrorist organisation. They have incited riots, taken corrupt money from agents against the UKs interests and have serious ties with the Kremlin. We are just watching it happen.
Rabid Cormorant1Fairly sure #Ofcom has a rule about MPs doing that Not that Ofcom would have a clue of course
tofueating1.bsky.social1And laughing at a mother of mixed ethnicity children who expressed her concerns as a resident of Piddington
When Mr Farage meets people who turn out to be undesirables, or even talks about donations and dodgy polling on camera, the BBC doesnt dig this hard. #r4today
lukewarm24.bsky.social11#r4today Is complicit in allowing the Farage lies to be aired without any challenge It’s truly fallen to historical lows in terms of editorial and political commentary
Barbara Exon2New Reform-relevant gov.uk petition, critical for UK politics, please could you possibly sign and repost as widely as possible? Petition: Make lying or spreading disinformation in public office a criminal offence petition.parliament.uk/petitions/77...
plod1.bsky.social1bbc obsessed with earl spencer and his silly book this weekend.
Notsooldgit1He surrounds himself with them.
I can see the far right envelop the UK like an octopus a shell, with sociopaths like Musk as the head using its Tommeh-Tommos-Farage-Lowe tentacles to stress-test the shell for weakness like donations rules to exploit, probe cracks like Piddington to pry open. THOSE are the borders we must defend!
Alex Andreou20I really think this is why everyone is super prickly and on a hair-trigger right now. Problem is, this suits the far right. Because I reckon even people not paying attention to politics instinctively feel this external pressure, but it is easy to misattribute. It just adds to a sense of chaos.
Raffaelo Bonaccorsi3Can I just punch the little fucking coke addled runt in the throat? I’m sure everyone would get a laugh out of it at least
Reform UK Councillor Tina Kennedy, Wigan, casually insulting Leigh her constituency. What is it with Reform UK using the term ‘3rd world country’? Here she is complaining that the council are keeping the streets clean, whilst simultaneously blaming them for encouraging fly tipping.
Reform Party UK Exposed21What’s next, blaming graffiti cleaning for providing blank canvases?
Mial Pagan2Shockingly poor grammar! Tut. Reform attracts the dullest and worst.
Marcus Wellington-Boot2Reform are all about angry reactions, not thoughtful responses.
OldeNaturalist1She can't spell either... It's "deterrent" love
I’m not against e.g. state pension reform in the abstract but this piece reads very much like a version of lump of labour fallacy to me. Would be interested in @jdportes.bsky.social thoughts giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...
Tomas Hirst18There’s a massive counterfactual gap in the analysis where the changing composition of migrant population reflect the types of employment the UK is targeting. And it also doesn’t discuss the UK’s atypical success at integration, which helps subsequent generations move up the income spectrum.
Dan Davies15It seems to me to use the phrases "net fiscal benefit" and "positive fiscal contribution" interchangeably, but obviously in a redistributive system, an immigrant worker whose net fiscal cost is lower than a domestic worker is a benefit
Sam Freedman2Why - there's no argument that there's a fixed number of jobs?
