Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations

When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

You may think of Reform UK as just anti-immigration.

However it’s also anti-civil servants, anti- economic rules, anti-standards

In short, it’s anti-functioning government.

So what would a Reform UK govt look like?
What would a Reform UK government mean for the UK economy?
What happens if Reform UK takes power? The economy might implode before their manifesto reaches final draft

🚨UK Lawyers for Israel Ltd has tried to silence various voices supporting Palestine. Their charitable wing has made public statements rejecting international law.

Activist Em Hilton is on the Charity Commission offices to ask for an investigation.

They smashed his window, peppered sprayed him & dragged him to the floor.

President Macron, "Have the problems, the illegal migration problems of Great Britain from 9 years ago been resolved by Brexit?"

"No"

Reform has lost 11 councillors and 2 MPs in a matter of months… and when I say ‘lost’ I mean, they’ve quit following rows, impropriety or inability to do their jobs.
So, if Brexit weren’t proof enough, then this barrelling shitshow should confirm forever that they should be nowhere near govt.

Imagine being so rich that you can have anything that you want, then deciding that's not enough and that you want to make millions of people suffer just so that you can be even richer.

It's a sickness.

While it's disappointing to hear that Rod Stewart supports divisive gobshite Nigel Farage, it's very good of him to announce it just in time to be told to fuck off by 200,000 people at Glastonbury.

NEW: 549 Palestinians now killed in the last 30 days.

Itself shocking. But, EVERY SINGLE ONE WAS KILLED AT A FOOD AID STATION.

A unique war crime. Firing squads using aid as bait.

Palestinians in #Gaza face two choices: starve to death, or risk death to get food.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

And just like that, the ‘No New Wars’ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.
