Nigel Farage refuses to answer a question about all 5 of his cabinet members going to expensive private schools.

Because he doesn't care.

If you aren't a millionaire and you vote Reform, Nigel Farage is going to sh*t on you.

The minimum wage is not enough to live on
Which is why so many people in the UK have 2nd 3rd jobs

But Reform Ltd want poor people to be even poorer!
