Brexit detonated our economy and our politics. Since then, our country seems to have lost its mind, veering off to the right, reawakening the racism genie, ruining itself to try to hide the dishonesty and snowballing damage of it all.
And now Farage could be PM ffs.

Nigel Farage says the NHS should be replaced with an insurance-based system like they have in the USA, which would mean crippling medical bills for Brits.
Drop a ❤️ if you love our NHS and want to keep it in public hands.

Ah the 1970s.
Stagflation, three day weeks, collapsing infrastructure. Civil War in Northern Ireland. In yer face racism and bigotry everywhere. Bin strikes. Strikes in general. Blackouts. Industrial decline. Wage inequality. Dog crap everywhere. And households spent 25% of their income on food.

Since BBC Question Time returned from it’s summer break there has been 9 episodes of #BBCQT
A representative/mouthpiece of Reform U.K. has appeared on 5 of them:
Kruger - Nov 13
Goodwin - Oct 30
Dorries - Oct 23
Yusuf - Oct 9
Tice - Sept 25
So there is a clear bias to Reform, with just 5 MPs 🤷♂️

I feel this is going to be another hour this week which I am going to be screaming at you for jumping on the media bandwagon rather than listening to what we have heard the Chancellor and PM publicly say.
Which has NEVER had them saying ANYTHING about income tax rises.

Farage earns more than any other MP for NOT being an MP. He says it’s “obviously sad” that part of his constituency is the most deprived area in England.
But everything he’s ever done, said and wanted has made sure of it.
This is the whole country if he gets into power.
