I don’t think a Reform govt is inevitable. And it’s up to us too, to make sure it doesn’t happen. Apathy, defeatism and tearing down our own side only emboldens Farage. We must refuse to help him. Be more strategic and defiant ourselves. He has 30% support. If the 70% can’t defeat him, shame on us.

Well done #Aldi, so often you buy salmon only to find the product doesn't extend much beyond the cardboard 'window'. Not here! It's right on the seal limit, and I must say, it was delicious. 😄👍🏻

When I was little and dragged to church, I though "I am the Lord of the Dance said he" was "I am the Lord of the dancing flea".
I always thought it was more fun than all of the others.

It’s really simple…
- Cap all political donations
- Ban foreign donations
- Strict conflict‑of‑interest & anti‑corruption laws with penalties
- No titles, honours or peerages for donors
- No govt contracts for donors
- Publish every donation/lobby meeting
…that’ll do it.

Here's what Reform wastes tax payers money on in #Nottinghamshire. A £75K politically motivated stunt.
It's not welcome and should be reclaimed from Reform Party (company!) funds.

It’s clear to anyone paying attention that Farage won’t investigate the Russian infiltration of Reform.
The Prime Minister must step up and launch a national investigation.

Brexit has cost each and every one of us £3,700 a year.
But instead of solving the problem, Labour are using Brexit as an excuse to raise your taxes.

Brexit and support for Farage's narrative have destroyed the Tory Party, reducing it to just 14 seats at the next election! The same will happen to Labour if they continue doing the same.

Only just heard about #MikeGraham sacking almost 2 weeks ago, but I guess that comes with him being a nobody in a tiny echo chamber.
I did wonder what karma event might finish him, figured it would either be a lifestyle related coronary or being sued penniless. Never figured on the obvious though.

“Did Nathan Gill ever say anything you disagree with in return for his bribes from a Kremlin stooge?”
“Did you, in your roles as his boss, friend, mentor & party leader, ever question his full-throated support for an enemy of the UK and if not, why not?”

Very amusing to watch Reform complain about all the things wrong with the UK - every one caused by Brexit - without actually mentioning Brexit, as if they happened by magic.
