Reform are liars. Well done @bylinesnetwork.co.uk for being the only media outlet reporting on this. Reform is using 🍊💩’s playbook to get into power. They’re only interested in making their friends richer.

When the divisive right wing ignore you, they don’t see you as a threat. When they’re insulting you it means they sat up & noticed you. @zackpolanski.bsky.social is showing the right wingers up for what they are: liars out to enrich the top 1%,not builders of community who create a fairer society

Reform are trying to bring 🍊💩’s policies here. They are funded by the ultra religious & far right Heritage Foundation. The numbers of women & babies dying in the US since they enacted their abortion ban has shot up. For the sake of the lives of the women & girls in your life do not vote for Reform

@zackpolanski.bsky.social . Next time they mention women’s rights . Mention green MPs prochoice voting records . Reform MPs voted for NC106 to ban telemedicine access in June . Which would of disproportionately effected women in abusive relationships

Shocking & shameful. A party that championed press freedom is now trying to censor the media because it doesn’t like what they’re saying about them. Maybe review what you’re saying instead of using authoritarian tactics to avoid bad press.

Absolutely agree. The damage shareholder dividends & private equity does to our services is huge. Services under public ownership & a NHS that provides their own treatments & expands capacity will plough money back into themselves. Let them leave & strip another country for profit.

Definitely, but Tommy is a tool for whipping up the mob. There’s a reason Reform is registered as a limited company & not a political party - they don’t have to declare who’s funding them from abroad.
