Nigel Farage has been making some big populist promises. But behind the soundbites lies not only a financial black hole, but tells us a lot about the future he sees for Britain: Let’s take a closer look 🧵 1/23

🚨 NEW: Labour is lifting 100,000 children out of poverty by expanding access to free school meals. Alongside free breakfast clubs, cheaper uniform costs and government-funded childcare, Labour is putting money in parents’ pockets and giving children the best start in life.
