Are they rogue operatives - or are they working on behalf of the US State? Jon and Lewis speak to the journalist who broke the story,Later, Labour are on the attack over Nigel Farage's mass deportation plan. The minister in charge of UK-EU relations, Nick Thomas-Symonds, has today been slamming Reform and the Tories for their aversion to closer ties with Europe - as well as branding Farage's migration proposals unrealistic and unworkable.

  • Farage, flags and Connolly: How the Right turned on the State
    In an airport hangar in Oxfordshire, Nigel Farage unveiled Reform UK's mass deportation plan. Farage pledged to tear up international treaties, build new removal centres, and strike deals with foreign countries in an effort to drive up returns at pace should he become PM. There was a dark message in his speech - that without his radical programme, Britain faces rising anger, even civil disorder.Speaking at length about a political class and a legal class pitted against this action, Farage asked: "Whose side are you on?". It follows a weekend in which Tory politicians have been condemning the British judicial system for convicting Lucy Connolly, who was jailed after calling on people to "set fire" to asylum hotels in the wake of the Southport attack. When did the British Right turn on the British State? How did the conservative movement become so set on tearing down institutions rather than preserving them? Jon and Lewis discuss.Visit our new website for more analysis and interviews from the team: https://www.thenewsagents.co.uk/The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal -> https://nordvpn.com/thenewsagents Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee
