The growing list of political figures and lobbyists pranked by Sacha Baron Cohen for a new series is truly tantalising.

The Ali G, Bruno and Borat star took political pranking to new levels with former Vice President Dick Cheney signing a water board and prominent right wingers Sarah Palin, Roy Moore, and radio host Joe Walsh publicly attacking the comedian for making them look stupid.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
