Scotland does this but England doesn’t

Also:
NHS Scotland pays more for the same position/grade
Scotland has nationalised water and doesn’t pump shit into their rivers/beaches
Further education in Scotland is free (England is £9535 pa)

You’d never know we were supposedly the ‘richer’ nation
Couple moves due to ‘feeling unsafe’ and ‘soaring crime rates’

Gosh - sounds awful? I wonder which hellhole they were living in?

Forgot I did another comic about the NT thing in @prospectmagazine.co.uk two years ago. I loathe all the culture wars stuff we have to wade through nowadays but I can't say it hasn't given us all something to write about. That's part of the problem of course

I’m sure going from $1Tn -> $5Tn* since 2023 is nothing to worry about all

*$4Tn -> $5Tn in *3 months* is also fucking insane

If the model here is that you let a private company conquer a country, co-opt local elites to exploit it for profit and govern it by force, while providing no public services and never worrying about elections, then, yes - this is a really good analogy, Mr Kruger.

coming out to my family as a fucking loser
School/Parent emails are always an eye opener

Fully behind them employing a group of snipers to deal with this - who the fuck doesn’t clean up after their dog on a *school* field?!
You’re paying a handsome monthly fee for that treatment too
Wait, what?

Are they underfunded*, - because last week they were profligate spenders that Reforms ‘DOLGE’ team were to tackle??

They could probably stop the immigrant bashing, then do something relatively popular - jail some water company execs, renationalise that, etc

I dunno who they’re currently trying to woo tbh
Any half-competent journalist would surely ask Mr Kruger exactly which laws (specifically) he’s so eager for MPs to be exempt from?

Same as their ECHR schtick - which rights do they wish to abolish, exactly?

Y’know - fucking basic stuff, really
Former Conservative, now Reform UK MP Danny Kruger says that a Reform UK government would change the ministerial code

So that ministers are no longer obliged to adhere to international law
Believing the algorithm is the voice of the electorate is a mistake only a terminally online idiot could make
