Nathan Gill – the former Reform Wales leader – was convicted of taking bribes to ask pro-Russian questions. Relatively easy to prove.
But what if others like him took cash to do something less *obviously* pro-Russian, but still very much in Russia's interests.
Something like... Brexit.

Branding essential care workers employed on minimum wage as unworthy is a new low.
Home Secretary's huge "screw you!" to existing carers.
Imagine being told you're so worthless you'll have to wait 15 years for settlement. And then having to turn straight back around and help old people with a smile on your face.
Labour have managed to find a way to make me despise them more. 👏

Removing asylum support. Seizing belongings. Deporting entire families, including children.
Labour are not just paving the path to a Reform government. Reform may as well already be in power.
This government has no moral compass — and it should be ashamed of its inhumanity.
