Semi retired primary teacher working in inner city Liverpool school. Loves cricket, LFC, tennis and gardening and has small cake business. Sees “woke” as a compliment. I was a carer for my husband who died from MND in March 2025. No DMs thank you.

First, he threatens to take Greenland by force, now he is threatening to tariff anyone who stands in his way.
First, he claimed tariffs were a way to fix the so-called trade imbalance.
Now he’s openly using them to bully the free world.

I think it’s basically time to retire the peace prize because it really is meaningless at this point. Another 100+ year-old tradition cheapened, wrecked, and discredited by the gauche garish gangster.

Naturally I am totally against the Northern Powerhouse Rail project. We in Reform believe that the future of this great country lies in bringing back steam trains and barges.

You're willing to drag the world into deadly turmoil when your only reason for being in power it to avoid jail.

You can love Jewish people and be against Zionism.
You can want a free Palestine and a free Iran at the same time.
You can love a population of people and also hate people in that population who hate other people.
All things can be true. It’s not always one or the other.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Didn’t seem difficult when the likes of Darren Grimes were campaigning for Reform UK during the local elections saying waving the magic Reform wand would fix everything.
They criticised local councils across the country for doing exactly what they are now.
Reform UK lies to you.

I see another Opinion piece in Guardian written by one of Farage’s school contemporaries. It agrees with the 34. This isn’t going away.
Won’t be mentioned in his BBC interview in Sunday, or at least not in any challenged way.
Im pleased The Guardian is focused on this. I might forgive them soon

I am delighted to welcome Nadhim Zahawi to Reform UK. He will bring useful experience, such as claiming £6,000 to heat his stables and avoiding £3.7m tax by hiding £27m offshore and threatening to sue anyone who asked about it.

Nadhim Zahawi and family fled to the UK from Saddam Hussein's Iraq as a child refugee in 1978. Unable to speak English when he arrived, he became a hugely successful businessman and an MP before serving as Chancellor of the Exchequor.
His origin story is the very antithesis of the Reform narrative.

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand
