Firm leading council savings review could receive ยฃ30m The county council currently needs to plug an expected ยฃ90 million gap in its day-to-day spending

Reform UK Leicestershire are crooks.

They announced consultants Newton would do a ยฃ1.4m savings review.

Thatโ€™s ballooned to ยฃ30m in 6 just days.

Leader Dan Harrison is a con man.

Leicestershire youโ€™ve been had.

The right can mock my teeth all it wants โ€“ it shows the Greens have struck a nerve | Zack Polanski As a politician, I expect opposition and debate. But when it centres on personal insults, not policies, something else is going on, says the leader of the Green party, Zack Polanski

Every personal attack.

Every attempt to distract or to divide.

It energises, strengthens and empowers our movement.

Lower bills. Tax billionaires. Join us.

The scenes on our streets are shameful consequences of decades of austerity - government after government fanning the flames of anti migration instead of tackling inequality.

We can & must make different choices. Solidarity to all communities under attack. We stand together.

Today, Parliament debated child sexual abuse. Not a single Reform UK MP turned up. The party that constantly rants about โ€œPakistani" and immigrant gangs - yet when it comes to an actual Commons statement on child rape, they couldnโ€™t be bothered.
Hypocrisy doesnโ€™t get more blatant than this.

Reform: Stop hiding from press scrutiny! Nigel Farage says he welcomes freedom of speech, even if people find it offensive. Surely that should apply to freedom of the press too? So why have Reform's Nottinghamshire councillors - who control ...

Reform led Nottinghamshire Council has blacklisted a local paper for asking questions about what councillors were doing. Farage says he welcomes free speech, that should apply to freedom of the press too. Sign the petition to get them to reverse the decision: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/re...
