Leader of the Brexit Party

Ten years after the Kremlin helped tip the very close Brexit vote, Nigel Farage is shockingly leading UK polls. The Putin fanboy, bankrolled by a crypto-king in Thailand tied to Putin's propaganda machine, is making false promises like Donald Trump in the 2024 election. Farage and his billionaire backers want to install a Kremlin Trojan horse to dismantle the rule of law, enrich themselves and the transnational pedo-trade, and wage war on marginalized communities. The waves of hate violence plaguing the UK right now will only get worse. Like Keir Starmer's time as Prime Minister, Putin is a dead man walking. While his puppets try to break the West, Ukraine is turning Crimea into the world's largest Russian prisoner-of-war camp. Supply lines are being cut, and Russians are fleeing the peninsula. Joining Gaslit Nation with a special message from Ukrainians and to discuss his recent trip to Ukraine is American veteran Ken Harbaugh, along with Russian mafia-expert and Gaslit Nation wing-woman extraordinaire, Olga Lautman, of the Trump Tyranny Tracker.

The e-mails, which date back to October of 2015, show that Bannon, who was then the vice-president of Cambridge Analytica, an American firm largely owned by the U.S. hedge-fund billionaire Robert Mercer, was in the loop on discussions taking place at the time between his company and the leaders of Leave.EU, a far-right nationalist organization. The following month, Leave.EU publicly launched a campaign aimed at convincing British voters to support a referendum in favor of exiting the European Union. The U.K. narrowly voted for the so-called Brexit in June, 2016.

Litují brexitu, volí Farage. Deset let po referendu o brexitu považuje 57 procent Britů odchod z Evropské unie za chybu a zhruba stejný počet by hlasoval pro návrat. Přesto strana lídra brexitářů Nigela Farage vede ve volebních průzkumech. Jak tento paradox chápat? Které ze slibů tehdejší kampaně Vote Leave se naplnily a které ukázaly jako mýtus? A je reálný návrat Británie do EU, když ani možný příští premiér Andy Burnham nechce toto téma zvedat? Zeptáme se ředitele Institutu liberálních studií Martina Pánka, který byl poradcem britské europoslankyně z Brexit Party, a v Británii žijícího novináře Ivana Kytky. Moderuje Lukáš Matoška.
Ten years on from the EU referendum, Camilla and Tim are joined by Reform UK's Nigel Farage to discuss the legacy of Brexit and why he believes the nation has yet to see its benefits.With the UK political landscape in flux, they also turn to the Labour Party, where Andy Burnham appears set for a swift coronation as leader after Starmer's recent resignation. As the party grapples with internal unrest and leadership challenges, they ask if Burnham has a viable strategy to lead or if a general election is inevitable.Studio Operator: Chris JanuaryProducers: Georgia Coan, Emma Williams and David Levene Video Producer: Will WaltersSocial Media Producer: Nada AggourExecutive Producer: Charlotte SeligmanEditor: Camilla TomineyHighlightsCan Labour block the Andy Burnham coronation following Starmer's sudden resignation?Nigel Farage on 10 years of Brexit: Has it delivered?

Another British Prime Minister is heading for the exit. Just days after insisting he would stay and fight, Keir Starmer has announced his resignation, bringing a sorry end to a premiership that lasted just two years. With his only serious rival out of the running, Andy Burnham now appears to have a clear path to Downing Street. Enda Brady joins Fionnan Sheahan to discuss how Burnham could approach the Irish relationship, handling Trump and defeating Nigel Farrage's reform?

Keir Starmer resigns - can Andy Burnham save the country from the disaster of a Reform government?Nick Cohen talks about Keir Starmer's resignation as Britain's sixth Prime Minister in ten years, reflecting on the implications for the country and the wider West. Nick explores concerns about Britain's political stability, comparing the situation to historical examples of governments collapsing, and talks about how nationalist parties are gaining power across the UK. Nick defends Starmer's leadership, highlighting his handling of Trump's presidency and his efforts on Ukraine, while acknowledging his political shortcomings. Nick expresses optimism about Andy Burnham becoming the next Prime Minister and emphasises the need for the centre-left to unite to counter the growing influence of the radical right, led by figures like Farage who has successfully split the right-wing vote.

Has anyone seen the confident swagger of Nigel Farage lately? Thought not. A month of funding controversy, candidate shenanigans and sliding support has culminated in Reform UK being soundly beaten in a by-election that was supposed to be too close to call. Alex and Kenny look at why Reform is stalling, and the reasons why Farage is right to be feeling a bit 'glass half-empty' right now. And the wonderful Emma Harrison, CEO of Make Votes Matter, is back (with a bonus appearance from Naomi) for a deep dive into all the different options for electoral reform.

Great Yarmouth MP Rupert Lowe is the newest disruptor in right-wing politics but the path he has taken to get there is a familiar one. Born in Oxford in 1957 Lowe attended an elite all boys boarding school before studying for a degree in Estate Management. After university he was a commodity broker in the City and went to Japan to work in securities but when British football clubs emerged as attractive financial assets in the 1990's he became chair of Southampton after a reverse takeover. Lowe resigned in 2006 after a decade in charge – having been blamed by many fans for relegation in 2005 after 27 years in the top flight. He made a return but resigned again in 2009 as the club's holding company went into administration.Next he decided to try his hand at politics. In 2019 Lowe became an MEP for the Brexit Party before switching to national politics after the UK left the EU in 2020, this time for Reform UK. In 2024 he became MP for Great Yarmouth but after falling out with Reform leader Nigel Farage he became an independent MP and launched his own party, Restore Britain.Production: Presenter: Becky Milligan Producers: Annabel Deas and Mhairi Mackenzie Production Coordinator: Maria Ogondele Sound: James Beard Editor: Justine LangCredits: @bedbox via YouTube, Rock Against Rupert - Rupert Lowe Michael Wilde out protest (1 February 2009) Channel 4, Reform UK infighting escalates as Farage and Lowe trade blows (9 March 2025) Channel 5 Vanessa, Is it wrong to put your pet down yourself?

Story of the Week (DR):Big Media Dictatorship Craziness MMJustice Department Decision to Allow Paramount Deal Surprised Staff Investigators and US approval of Paramount/Warner Bros. deal surprised DOJ lawyers and The UFC's Despicable Night at the White House Senior Justice Department officials suddenly closed an eight-month antitrust investigation and approved Paramount's $111 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, shocking career staff attorneys who were preparing to recommend a lawsuit to block it.DOJ investigators worried the combined company's massive debt would prevent it from honoring its promise to release 30 movies annually. However, senior leadership dismissed the debt concerns, arguing the merger would beneficially create a stronger rival to streaming giants like Netflix.The unexpected approval has drawn intense criticism from lawmakers, notably Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who suggested the green light from the administration was politically motivated and stated the decision "reeks of corruption."The deal also faces regulatory hurdles at the FCC; despite Chairman Brendan Carr's support, the merger requires a special FCC waiver due to significant equity stakes held by sovereign wealth funds in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar.While the federal government has stepped aside, the mega-merger still faces strict, ongoing antitrust scrutiny from the European Union and potential lawsuits from several state Attorneys General (including California) who insist the merger is not a done deal.Comcast Class A Shareholders Reject $107M Co-CEO Pay as Stock Slid 20%Brian Roberts 34% of vote42% no on pay with Roberts: 80% no without David Zaslav 2025 Pay Rejected By WBD Shareholders In Non-Binding Vote84% no for his $165MNo major shareholder: On the verge of being acquired by the EllisonsFox Corp to acquire Roku in $22B dealFox increased CEO/Chair Lachlan K.

The airline determined that the consumption occurred the day before departure and represented a breach of internal policy, escalating the matter from a single failed test to a wider compliance violation within the crew pairing on that layover."We sincerely apologize for the incident involving flight JL252 on May 23, which has severely damaged the trust placed in us. We take this seriously, recognizing it stems from structural weaknesses in our organizational monitoring. Moving forward, we are fully committed to ensuring safety and restoring trust by strengthening our inspection procedures and implementing company-wide reforms."Japan Airlines responded by implementing disciplinary measures affecting both frontline staff and senior management.CEO Mitsuko Tottori, the first female to lead the company after joining as a flight attendant herself in 1985, accepted a 30% reduction in salary for two months, while other executives also received temporary pay cuts as part of the company's internal accountability process.Safety manager Yukio Nakagawa and cabin services manager Junko Nakano will each take a 20% salary reduction for one month.Meanwhile, all other directors will receive a 10% pay cut over the same period.Alongside executive action, the airline introduced a stricter policy banning alcohol consumption during layovers for more than 6,000 flight attendants.

As the polls open in the Makerfield by-election, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley speak to Reform UK's Nigel Farage, who is already publicly managing expectations. Farage claims Reform UK would storm to victory had the Labour Party put forward any other candidate, but fears local loyalty to Andy Burnham might cost them victory. If Reform loses, Farage warns the public will “never forgive” Rupert Lowe and Restore Britain Party for splitting the vote on the right.Elsewhere, Camilla and Tim discuss England's 4-2 win in their first World Cup match against Croatia, and expose why only two out of 98 of Andy Burnham's by-election campaign adverts actually mention Labour at all.We want to hear from you!

UK needs a a strong liberal voice in the south to counter the predictable catastrophe of Farage and Reform In his latest Lowdown podcast, Nick Cohen talks to historian and author James Hawes about parallels between current political developments and fascist movements in the 1930s and 1970s. James compares Elon Musk's influence to that of Alfred Hugenberg in 1930s Germany, noting how both used media control to promote extreme right-wing parties. Nick and James discuss conservative establishment figures like Michael Grade at Ofcom were failing to enforce impartiality laws, how the government was unwilling to act against platforms promoting insurrection, and how the right-wing media landscape had shifted dramatically since the days when Enoch Powell was rejected by the Conservative Party. Hawes emphasises the need for a united liberal democratic front to oppose far-right parties like Farage's, warning that the first-past-the-post electoral system could allow Nigel Farage to become Prime Minister with less than a third of the vote if the left remained split. They conclude with calls for a "popular front" similar to those that successfully opposed fascists in the past, with both hosts expressing optimism that such a coalition could still be formed. The UK desperately needs a strong Liberal voice in the south to prevent Farage inflicting his second catastrophe on the UK after Brexit - a Reform government with the inevitable division, economic misery and national failure that would guarantee.Read all about it!

There are still a lot of ifs, but if Andy Burnham wins the Makerfield by-election on June 18, he is highly likely to succeed the current Labour Prime Minister, Keir Starmer. Yet ten years after Brexit, is Britain even governable? Could the anti-migrant violence and riots – stirred up by figures like Elon Musk, as recently witnessed in Belfast – become the new normal in the UK? And could Nigel Farage actually become prime minister? I explore these questions and more with Steven Fielding, Professor Emeritus of Political History at the University of Nottingham.

Starmer's Belfast Blame Game: Why Elite Fear TRUTH About Immigration? #JonGaunt #Starmer #BelfastRiots #Immigration #Farage #TwoTierBritain #ECHR #UKPolitics #JohnHealey The streets of Belfast are on fire, and the political class is hiding behind a smokescreen. Why is Keir Starmer more interested in policing Elon Musk's and Nigel Farage's language than addressing the massive elephant in the room: unvetted mass immigration and the total breakdown of our borders? In today's show, Jon Gaunt exposes the staggering disconnect between the Westminster elite and the real people of this country. While the "Establishment" obsesses over "tone" and "narrative," they are ignoring the root causes of the riots and the legitimate concerns of patriots who feel like strangers in their own land. Is this the definition of a "Two-Tier" Britain? Why are the concerns of the native population labeled "far-right" while the causes of unrest are swept under the rug? How the political class uses Farage as a tactical distraction to avoid their own failures. The truth about the Belfast riots that the BBC and Sky News won't tell you. The "House of Rot" in Westminster has abandoned the working class. It's time for a factory reset. Have your say! Are Starmer and the political class totally out of touch, or is this a deliberate attempt to silence dissent?

The racist myth that police aren't inherently institutionally racist is finally debunked—yet the denial persists, this time being spread by Labour politician David Lammy. Kehinde exposes the shocking reality behind police practices, racism in politics, and how the narratives we've been fed are designed to keep systemic injustice intact. Why do policymakers and even some Black leaders deny the deep-rooted institutional racism in law enforcement, and how is this denial harming us all? In this provocative episode, Kehinde unpacks the disturbing footage of police misconduct—whether it's the brutal treatment of Black victims or the tragic case of Henry Nowak—and reveals how these are not isolated incidents but symptoms of a racist system built into the very fabric of policing. You'll discover why claims of "bad apples" are a distraction from the real problem: the institution itself. We break down how reforms have been cosmetic, rooted in interest convergence and staged crises, rather than genuine systemic change. We explore the long history of police brutality, from the Stephen Lawrence case to the recent obsession with "two-tier systems," and how mainstream discourse is shifting blame away from institutional racism toward individual incompetence or "bad character." Kehinde challenges you to reframe the conversation—reject the false dichotomy of "racism against white people" and see the real enemy: systemic, structural racism woven into policies, practices, and culture. This episode is essential listening for anyone fed up with superficial police reform and ready to understand how to organize beyond politics as usual. Why is true reform impossible without changing the fundamental frameworks? And how can Black communities organize for power outside these collapsing institutions? Kehinde urges us to see this crisis not as a sign of racial decline but as a wake-up call for radical resistance and unity. Whether you're a student, activist, or concerned citizen, this episode will challenge your assumptions, reveal uncomfortable truths, and inspire collective action. The fight for real justice starts with understanding the frames we're told to accept—and rejecting them. Why listen? Because systemic racism in policing is not a myth. It's a lived reality that demands radical rethinking, community organization, and a break from the narratives that keep us divided. It's time to expose the illusions, flip the frame, and build a future rooted in truth and resistance. Join Kehinde as he unpacks these uncomfortable truths—ready to challenge the mainstream, ignite your political consciousness, and link the dots between police brutality, racial injustice, and the urgent need for grassroots power.

Farage and the far-right have been quick to seize on Henry Nowak's horrific murder, ignoring pleas from the victim's family for the killing not to be politicised. Instead the Reform leader decried “two-tier” policing and called for “pure, cold rage”. What does it all mean? Are we in for another summer of racially-triggered rioting? Plus: what would an Andy Burnham government actually look like? Can Manchesterism succeed where Starmerism stumbled? And in the Extra Bit… mantropreneurship irritant Steven Bartlett claims that two glasses of wine “ruined” his life for three days.

For this week's Edition, Lara Prendergast is joined by the Spectator's political editor Tim Shipman, the writer Guy Stagg and the author and host of How to Fail Elizabeth Day.This week, the guests discuss whether Nigel Farage's Reform UK can see off the threat from Rupert Lowe's Restore Britain. Restore Britain's success may be modest and, so far, very online but that doesn't mean they won't hinder Farage's effort to reach Number 10. If polls from the Makerfield by-election are anything to be believed, Restore could have a real impact. The battle for the tight is also having an impact across the political spectrum too – should Labour move further to the right to appeal to Reform and Restore's disgruntled voters, or should they simply ignore them? For Elizabeth Day, there is an ‘ironic and beautiful symmetry' to the Reform versus Restore dynamic, which almost makes her nostalgic for the 'Tory boy' politics of post-Thatcher era.Also this week: from Makerfield to Mandelson, the government has been busy this week responding to the latest tranche of messages released on Monday. Yet – were some missing? Tim discusses the missing messages of Starmer loyalist Darren Jones MP which he exclusively revealed in this week's Spectator. How damaging is this for Labour? And how should we treat WhatsApp messages legally?Plus, they discuss: the travel experiences that have shaped their lives, from Orthodox churches perched on Istanbul rooftops to the ‘most bombed hotel' in Belfast; if collecting books is an acceptable form of hoarding; whether they would take frog poison; and finally, with the news that Nigel Farage may have been banned from Desert Island Discs, they reveal some of the items they would take with them.Elizabeth Day's latest book One of Us is out now and available in all good bookshops.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

The Somali Health Board will be distributing the tickets. The agency receives $262,982 of WA taxpayer funds “Henry Nowak was kind, thoughtful and much-loved. His life was stolen from him, leaving his family and loved ones devastated. The bodycam footage is harrowing. It's absolutely right that the IOPC is looking at this. There are serious questions for the police to answer.” - Keir Starmer This is quite frankly the most DISGUSTING non-apology I have ever heard. "We have said sorry" What? So he doesn't feel the need to apologise personally as Chief Constable? “The killing of George Floyd has shone a light on racism experienced by black people in the US and beyond, including here in the UK.” - Keir Starmer WATCH: Keir Starmer condemns the attacks on police in Southampton last night . "This is a time of serious work, not rage... anyone found engaging in disorder will meet the full force of the law" UK Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood condemned the Southampton protests as "completely unacceptable" and promised demonstrators will face "the full force of the law." The officers who handcuffed Henry Nowak as he bled to death, pleading with them that he couldn't breathe? No comment. Mahmood had plenty to say about the protests.

Are the Establishment AFRAID of FARAGE? Is he more in touch than STARMER? #JonGaunt #NigelFarage #KeirStarmer #TwoTierBritain #FreeSpeech #Establishment #UKPolitics #LiveDebate Nigel Farage has just confirmed what we've all been thinking: The Establishment is terrified. Following the disgraceful attack on him yesterday, Farage has made it clear—they are coming for him because they can't handle the truth he speaks. While Keir Starmer remains in his high-walled "elite" bubble, Nigel Farage is out on the streets, speaking to the people and exposing the "two-tier" reality of modern Britain. Is the physical and political targeting of Farage a sign of a desperate government losing its grip on the public? We're going LIVE to ask the big questions: Why is the political establishment so afraid of one man? Is Farage the only leader who actually understands the frustrations of the white working class? Are the attacks on Nigel—and the elite's obsession with silencing Elon Musk—part of a wider plan to kill off Free Speech? Has "Two-Tier Keir" officially lost the country to a man who actually listens? The "House of Elites" is shaking. They want to shut down the debate, but on Jon Gaunt TV, we are turning the volume up.

STARMER is shutting down FREE SPEECH. Attacking FARAGE and ELON MUSK #JonGaunt #Elon Musk #NigelFarage #FreeSpeech #Two-Tier #HenryNowak Starmer is using the tragic murder of Henry Nowak to try and curtail all of our free speech and he must be stopped. In this emergency live show, Jon Gaunt will argue that Starmer is doing exactly what he accuses everyone else of doing; using Henry's death to stoke division and unrest. There is an urgent need for a public debate around two tier policing and justice in the UK. Starmer is deluded or simply lying when he says that it doesn't exist. We must be allowed to debate it. Did he learn nothing from the tragic events of Southport where he left a power and information vacuum which was filled by riots ad civil unrest. He doesn't want to debate it because he was one of the architects of woke policing or is that unfair? Have your say whilst we still have FREE SPEECH in the UK!

Richie is joined by the legendary financial whistle-blower Nicholas Wilson, AKA Mr Ethical. For several years, Nicholas has been investigating the financial affairs of Reform UK leader Nigel Farage. Yesterday, Nicholas reported Farage to police after he - Farage - had called on people to express "pure cold rage" in response to police bodycam footage of the death of 18 year-old Henry Nowak. Nicholas told the police that Farage had incited violence. Later that evening, a mob led by Tommy Robinson turned up outside Southampton police station. 11 police officers and a dog were injured in the ensuing disorder.

Nigel Farage asks the prime minister to take action against "two-tier policing", but Keir Starmer accses the Reform UK leader of exploiting the murder of Henry Nowak.Plus: Kemi Badenoch seizes on the Mandelson files to accuse the government of raising taxes to fund higher welfare spending.

Canvassing in Makerfield continues at pace ahead of the by-election in two weeks time, so we dispatched Megan McElroy and James Heale to the north to report from the ground. They discuss each party's ground game, why it looks like a Labour–Reform shoot-out, whether Restore will split the vote on the right and – most importantly – Nigel Farage's Desert Island Discs.This comes after revelations in Lord Ashcroft's book claimed that Farage has effectively been banned from appearing on the programme, a story that has dominated the papers over the last 48 hours, evidencing the continued interest in brand Farage. James spoke with Nigel earlier this morning and can bring the Reform leader's favourite tracks, book and luxury item exclusively to Coffee House Shots listeners.Produced by Megan McElroy and Oscar Edmondson.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.
