Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

The only reason Gill stopped being the Reform UK leader in Wales was because he failed to win a seat in the 2021 Senedd election.

Zia Yusuf keeps trying to make this sound like this is ancient history, and Reform washed their hands of him, but nothing is further from the truth.

There’s no one as patriotic as Reform.. trouble is their patriotism is to Russia.. tho they do use Union and St George’s flags as props 🙄🙄🤦🏼‍♂️
Navy intercepts 2 Russian ships in Channel so a quick reminder that Reform #PlasticPatriots former Welsh leader is inside for 10 years for taking bribes from Russia..

And Farage has appeared numerous times on Russian TV & secretly met their ambassador & is on record as admiring Putin

Just saying 🤷🏼‍♂️

Reform UK’s only Senedd member Laura Anne Jones - desperate to impress Farage - has been slapped with a suspension for calling people “chinky spies” in a WhatsApp chat. Yes, that’s the intellectual powerhouse representing Farage’s clown circus: racist slurs in a staff group chat about TikTok.

Having Johnson & Cummings in Downing Street when Covid struck was, just like Brexit, an entirely avoidable disaster caused largely by utterly appalling journalism. And now exactly the same clowns, arses & bigots with bylines are rolling out the red carpet for Farage.
