⚡️ SHOCKING! Chris Bryant’s huge Brexit admission:

🫨16,000 fewer 🇬🇧 biz exporters after Brexit. Brexit crippled 🇬🇧 biz

That’s why
France/Germany are outperforming 🇬🇧
👉growth is weaker
👉wages are under pressure

Brexit used sovereignty as bait to deliver self-harm which benefits Russian 🇷🇺 aggression.

Looks like a lot of people think that not only is Farage racist, so are Reform and most of those who support the party too.

Hard to disagree really.

Plenty of evidence has emerged that Farage was a virulent racist at school. Leopards just about never change their spots.

Buckle up - because this now amounts to a direct and deliberate attack on our country and its cultural sovereignty. Which side our politicians take - Trump's or the BBC's - over the coming days and weeks will speak volumes about their patriotism.

This research paper is really worth reading.
Fascinating stats here

Research from @hopenothate.org.uk based on poll of 11,000 Reform UK supporters, the biggest survey of its kind, tells us more about who is intending to vote for the party than has been previously known. It reveals five distinct voter groups with sharply contrasting priorities

"The council's cabinet took the decision to close the service in a meeting behind closed doors in July before the matter was discussed at a scrutiny meeting on Monday."

No cuts, Reform promised.

MPs… Ragingly racist and prejudiced MPs… making money from X.
Lowe. Farage. Tice. Anderson.
If ever people say they speak for them, remind them of this. No. They do not. They speak for themselves. They speak for their bank accounts. There’s money to be made from keeping people fearful and angry.
Human trafficking.

Rupert Lowe makes more money from using Elon Musk’s website than any other MP.

There is money to be made from mass deportations and talking about mass deportations.

Tax Wealth not work.

Work is already fairly taxed, the wealthiest pay a tax rate not even half of yours.

It's time to end the unfair culture where the wealthiest contribute the least.

Given the party's refusal to act on Pochin's brazen racism, it should be as socially unacceptable to vote for Reform as it was in the early 2000s to vote for the BNP.

And we should be prepared to say this to people's faces.
