So glad the cameraman did not shift the camera:
This is already up on X, I’ll now run it at OoL, Unherdables and Jstack.
Full text of Donna’s letter but not the receipts which she did show on X:
There have been continued suggestions by pro Reform political area pundits, always this vague suspicion, that Nigel Farage and mate Richard Tice are in fact in thrall to the Uniparty, to ensure that whichever party he heads will always come in a valiant second, after putting the frighteners on the “Establishment”.
Just look at us calling this out … vilified by sections of Reform, urged on by those three, because we took exception at how they dump people they don’t like, making actionable accusations such as senility etc.
Our own friends and colleagues are not happy we did not “get behind Nige”, whilst we did get behind the rank and file. Why do these three want a budding party split two ways before we’ve even started? Think about it.

“Having watched a few hours of MEMRI content over the years, I should not have been surprised when Muslim neighbours – the Mohammeds and Ahmeds who routinely deliver me and my goods or serve me in their shops in West London – took to the streets to celebrate the October 7 pogrom in Israel. Half a mile from where I live, they danced for joy and called for the destruction of Israel. This, before the Jewish state had responded in any way – making a nonsense of the line taken by most Palestinian apologists that they don’t support Hamas’s actions (to the extent they don’t actually deny them) but are merely protesting the alleged ferocity of Israel’s response.”
Not bad if you accept it for what it is at 26 mins long.
All right, I like his voice, accent, manner … at the start … but but but … the bleedin’ intrusive music started, blighting the presentation … plus it’s so TV/journo bollox … why not just give the facts, rather than make a meal of it? Just as with podcasts and vlodcasts. Maybe it’s the times we’re in, maybe it’s just me at fault.

……
JH: Earlier, Steve had the origins of the Uke thing, Maidan, in 2014 and it’s very much chicken and egg. Pro-Uke death squads such as Asov point to 1618 Polish-Russian war as the start, others point to 1917 and Lenin.
One of the catalysts for Russia was the Odessa Trades Hall building massacre on Maidan Day in 2014 … the sheer atrocities by Azov etc. against unarmed protesters, gunmen shooting, burning, torturing both sides in order to get conflagration restarted.
Poryshenko had not been exactly subtle in Kiev leading up to it. Remember Tymoschenko as well? Everyone in the region knew what the US and UK were pulling, through NATO/CIA … the MSM/Wiki mention none of that. And thus, views become skewed. Plus the constant shelling, by Kiev, of the Donbass from then onwards. Hamas stuff.
What do NATO/CIA want? Globo access, US access, to Russ area minerals of course. Perma aggression on the doorstep, e.g. drones to the Crimea. Would Russia act to stop it? Well would the US if Cuba tried that trick? I’m defending the US in its backyard, Russia in its, us in ours.

a) The legislative process for introducing euthanasia in France was put on hold by the government’s collapse in December 2024. Discussions have resumed…..
b) ‘We can’t explain it to our citizens’ – von der Leyen laments EU’s abysmal deportation rate…..
c) Hiding the truth. A code of ethics for journalistic coverage of migration, a particularly sensitive topic in public debate, was presented Tuesday at the Mediterranean Journalism Conference in Marseille…..
d) Rennes again. Around 7:25 p.m., around fifteen firefighters* were dispatched to the scene […] two youths were injured by gunfire. The first, aged 17, was in critical condition…..
2. This one’s better buried
… and those who can find their way around can track it down … not saying who sent it.
Someone in comments recalls seeing it at Treehouse. Essentially, she’s American black, bought the Demrat oppression entitlement thing from birth, felt so oppressed and unwanted, decided to return to “Africa”, even though that’s around 54 nations over a vast continent, misses “snacks” most, wants back in the USA.
Says she’s a dentist, has run companies. Uh huh. Says it’s bad back there … mugged, even by police, power goes off unless prepaid, wants back “home”. Uh huh.
Hodge Twins … someone writes they don’t look black, seem mixed race … that’s another topic.
My conclusion? Thomas Sowell’s most like. Also, the way you look, way you act, weird eccentricity from the norm, way you speak … those decide me … in other words, if I sense trouble, I avoid, go the other way.
Prejudice? I’d walked up the towpath towards Bradford once, saw a narrowboat owner, got talking, asked how it was further along. He replied, quietly (and we’d talked no politics till then): “It’s all right till here but it gets pretty bad the closer you go to the centre … you really need to go there?”
That was all, I thanked him, wished him well, turned and went back to the ancestral home three miles away.
1. This is similar to the scene

(1629) Almost good evening, weekenders.
21. What the hell* happened in Australia?
*Hell is an appropriate description of where that land’s going:
She pinpointed it on Apr 30. Today, the horror of a landslide labour victory, the Lib (Tory) leader losing his seat, not unlike Poiviere, has eventuated. I did not follow the Oz election closely so don’t know why Dutton the CINO was so ineffectual, almost as if ordered to be. Why was Poiviere so bad too?
In the UK, Badenough was useless but there was a charmer with a good TV manner and a moneyed campaign. Never mind his behaviour, people were hoping against hope. NZ … why on earth did they put Ardern in? Why Macaroon?
The power of the media, TV, over normies is complete it seems.
20. Steve at 1038 … war room
19. DAD runs this by MTG
I represent the base and when I’m frustrated and upset over the direction of things, you better be clear, the base is not happy. I campaigned for no more foreign wars. And now we are supposedly on the verge of going to war with Iran. I don’t think we should be bombing foreign countries on behalf of other foreign countries especially when they have their own nuclear weapons and massive military strength.
And on top of that, now we are told that we have signed a deal for mineral rights in Ukraine, in order to pay us back for the hundreds of billions of dollars that we gave Ukraine and they used for money laundering, sold the weapons we gave them to our enemies, and their leader is a dictator who canceled elections, was involved in the first impeachment of Trump, and campaigned for Biden.
Didn’t we learn our lesson when we went to war in Iraq and killed Saddam Hussein because of “weapons of mass destruction?” Did we ever find any? And did any of that oil over in the Middle East make us rich? The answer is no, we are $36 trillion in debt today.
So why on earth would we go over and occupy Ukraine and spend an untold amount of future American taxpayer dollars defending and mining their minerals as well as potentially putting American lives at risk and future war? Why don’t we just mine our own rare earth minerals that are tied up on federal lands that the government confiscated years ago?
I also campaigned on accountability for the communist and tyrannical acts made by the government during Covid. Yet the Covid vaccine still has FDA approval even though there are millions reported injuries and deaths, and this mRNA vaccine is known to have horrific side effects and DOES NOT STOP PEOPLE FROM CATCHING COVID. And to this day, it’s still on the childhood vaccine schedule, why on earth is this happening? Hasn’t big pharma made enough billions and billions and billions of dollars on this lie?
I also campaigned on accountability for all the lawfare that was waged against the American people in the past four years. What about all the people that were locked up in jail and the abuse that they went through? And when are those vicious attorneys and judges ever going to be held accountable for the lives they ruined?
And I campaigned for an end to waste fraud and abuse of the American people’s harder tax dollars. I believe the DOGE mission is one of the most important things happening today in our government, and yet where are the rescissions that we should be voting on in Congress?
And one of the biggest issues in the nation that I have fought for, and early on I was one of the only ones that took a loud screaming stand against, is the evil transgender assault against our children. Most normal people in this country can’t even comprehend how it’s allowed to happen to kids who by law can’t even get a tattoo, drive, or vote.
And how did so many of our teachers turn into the predators themselves that groom children with gender lies? This should be an all out effort by Republicans to end this insanity. And look at the extreme nature of our rogue judicial system that is so defiant that there are judges that defy our nation’s laws and block the deportation of literal enemies of the United States of America. Where is the outrage and moral courage to dispose of this treason? Sadly not in Congress.
And what about election integrity? This should be the most important issue that the Republicans aggressively fight to protect because without secure elections protected from illegals voting and protections from stealing our votes, the American people have lost their power. When you are losing MTG, you are losing the base. And Trump isn’t on the ballot in the future, so do the math on that.

12. Vox, Crimea, the EU
Speaking to the Financial Times on Thursday, Kallas, the EU high representative for foreign affairs and security policy, claimed that “Crimea is Ukraine,” adding that “no EU country would accept recognition of Crimea as Russia.”
There’s the easy out. A European nation just has to recognize Crimea as Russian, which it obviously is, and thereby render itself a non-EU country. I assume the Russians would be more than happy to defend the rights of any such sovereign ex-EU state.
