Farage and RefUK will be an existential danger to _all_ our rights & freedoms should they get into power.
I wish more people understood this, and the threat they pose to us and all of the nations in the UK.

Farage at his small business event says that he believes that the British public should be able to call referenda on subjects of national importance.
He means the death penalty.

One of Mrs Tom's students has applied for a job, and she needs fluent English. She sent us the job spec, to do mock interviews. It's a 'mercun company. The intro / company info is verbal diarrhoea of the marketing kind. Get through that and it looks like possibly the most boring job on earth. 😬😬

This also exposes the huge lie that is Brexit. If you remember everyone that already felt left behind in this country in 2016 voted for Brexit as they were promised change, remember more money for the NHS etc. the complete opposite has happened. Farage ,Tories and Labour all lied to us.
◾ >9 years since Tees Valley voted for supposed benefits of Brexit
◾ >8 since Houchen was elected Mayor of Tees Valley
◾ >6 since Johnson promised to level up left-behind areas
...Middlesbrough remains the local authority with the highest proportion of most deprived neighbourhoods in England.

I bought some small biodegradable bin liners for my kitchen composting bin. I waited until it was pretty full, then pulled it out to put on the compost heap. The bags really are biodegradable. The bityom fell outand the contents ended up on the kitchen floor.
