Rejoining the Customs Union would deliver clear advantages for the UK, and two thirds of 2024 Labour voters already support the move: it's time for Westminster to catch up.

The fact the police are investigating Reform over alleged election overspend is potentially far more serious than you might imagine. If found guilty it could actually lead to a VOID election. Farage could lose his seat and be barred from office for 3 years and a by election could be called! 🤞

Kremlin Rats: Three more of Farage’s MEPs are alleged to have followed Putin's script. CPS has named Jonathan Bullock, Julia Reid and Steven Woolfe, saying they followed the script provided to Nathan Gill by Oleg Voloshyn when giving interviews to 112 Ukraine, a pro-Russian TV channel in March 2019.

The current estimate is that £10.9billion was “wasted”. But we spent an estimated £29.3billion! Germany by comparison spent just £3.2billion. It’s also interesting to note that other countries, Germany, Spain, Italy et al are all looking at potential fraud and cronyism in connection with COVID.

Seen a lot of comments about Reform voters not caring what Farage said at school, which is probably true.

But you've also got to consider people who aren't going to vote Reform but you want to turnout or vote tactically against them.

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.

Boris Johnson was paid £2,291 an hour by the offshore Farageist owners of the Telegraph. He delivered the Brexit they craved. Who had he been working for, them or the British people? Big money payments to parties and politicians must be made illegal. Politics must not be a billionaires' plaything.

This is HUGE for labour.

A new Savanta poll shows 67% of people who voted Labour in the last general election want Labour to join the EU customs union.

Will Keir Starmer listen?
Let’s hope so.

Nigel Farage doesn't seem to mind foreigners when they're funding his fraudulent political parties...

Or buying him a house.

We are now at the stage where all those who knew him in the past have warned us that Nigel Farage is unfit to be PM. About the same stage as when those who knew him in the past warned us that Boris Johnson was unfit to be PM.

🔴 Nigel Farage’s Reform is more reliant on super-rich backers than any major party in modern British political history

75% of *all* Reform donations *ever* have come from just three rich men

Is this what democracy looks like?

“In 2017 there was not a single asylum seeker who arrived on a boat. Today we have 46,000 a year and do you know why? It was because of the botched Brexit deal pushed through by Boris Johnson and championed by Nigel Farage. Nigel Farage should be here apologising”

Reform accepted £9 million from a former Boris Johnson backer & crypto-multimillionaire.

Today, Nigel Farage postures as a righteous defender of the same democracy he actively undermines.

Democracy should never be for sale. It's time for a cap on political donations.
