Topics - working and learning trades, the community she hopes to represent, the lies that have been told and how that features misogyny (a characteristic perhaps of Reform), and so much more.

Palantir must be destroyed.
SCOOP: Tensions at Palantir have grown in recent weeks over the company's work with ICE.
On Friday, CEO Alex Karp tried to calm concerns in an hourlong video that offered few specifics—instead offering NDAs to workers who want to understand how it's empowering ICE.

Community care is a slope to more privatisation.
Underfunding, neglect, point to how someone else broke it, convince you the NHS is free at the point of use, for now, then convince us we need to pay a little.
Then a lot.
But not you.
You're too sick.
Your end.

Dear Gorton and Denton
When you've finished your third job, Farage would rather you work a bit more because work life balance isn't important.
I bet any benefits you need will be dependent on you having very little life outside of work.
With Reform, be careful what you vote for.

So Gorton and Denton, are the Reform councillors and MPs you see like him? The type you think might let guys like him be 'just who he is'?

You mean to say, he doesn't represent my values.
