Reform is not a Left Wing party, Reform is an even more Right Wing version of the Conservative Party it offers nothing for anyone but the billionaires.

If you ever voted Labour you should never vote Reform.

Don't buy their empty lies.

Grammatical error! The person responsible has been told to sit in the garden and think about what they’ve done.

US beef: Hormone-treated food will not enter UK after US deal - government Farmers are raising questions over how checks will ensure US beef produced using hormones doesn't enter the UK market.

Hormone-treated beef will not enter UK after US trade deal, says govt.

It has been blocked since 1989; still banned in the EU; unsafe.

How will it be blocked when it is common in the US? Who will test? Why is UK lowering food standards?

UK better off within the EU. Become a vegetarian.

Under Labour’s welfare cuts, 1.3 million people with cancer, arthritis and other diseases could lose PIP.

They could have just made the very wealthiest pay their fair share.

What an absolute disgrace that they are choosing to make life harder for disabled people instead.

Harlow MP's concern over homes built in converted office blocks It follows another set of families being evacuated from their homes in Harlow.

MP's concern over homes in converted office blocks.

Tory/LibDem law enabled conversion, without planning permission. Substandard, cramped, fire risk slums.

Social Cleansing: Richer boroughs buy offices in poorer areas, dump people there, multiplying problems in poorer areas.

Deregulation kills.

Summer NHS strikes loom as medics at 'breaking point' Government faces fresh battle with health unions who refuse to rule out return to picket lines in protest against 'devastating' job cuts

NHS could be hit by another wave of strikes as health unions react with fury over β€œunprecedented” job cuts at hospitals across England

Trust leaders have cut thousands of doctors, nurses & other clinical staff in bid to meet NHS England’s demands to fill a Β£6.6bn deficit

Tighter restrictions on visas aren’t just mean-spirited, they’re counter-productive Making it harder for people to come to this country to work, study or stay may get the immigration numbers down, but it’s also a one-way ticket to plummeting growth, argues Jonathan Portes

"The Centre for Policy Studies claimed the lifetime net fiscal cost of recent migrants would be Β£234 billion.

However, this used the wrong data for earnings & employment. Simply correcting the errors results in a net fiscal *benefit* of about Β£125 bn."

Nigel Farage’s economic plans are a disaster Three choices: fiscal implosion, deep austerity or a hasty U-turn

It will probably come as no surprise to anyone to hear that Reform UK’s policies add up to an agenda of fiscal recklessness that rivals, and may well exceed, the disastrous 49-day, hair-raising, market-tanking premiership of Liz Truss in 2022

A year to the day since my ma passed away.
She was 92… and I don’t think she wasted a single day of her long life.

By 2026 the UK will have no ability to test the quality of its tap water, due to Brexit and all the laboratories being in the EU.

We will just have to trust the Water Companies.

I don't trust them, do you?

Even if the UK left the ECHR it would still be bound by other international obligations and treaties - so ask yourself what is Farage’s real motivation in calling for us to leave
