A Great British fuck off to Farage's former Tory Party from me.
Climate change deniers.
Equal opportunities deniers.
Rich, arrogant, entitled, permanently greedy, racist liars.
Photo of Yusuf at a lectern saying βshadow Home Secretaryβ (Wot?) Reform's plan for a 'British ICE' combines cruelty with stupidity
Project forward to 2036 under a majority Reform government and the picture darkens further. Britain would be smaller, older and whiter; more isolated from Europe; paradoxically, more vulnerable to foreign interterence and less able to fund its own defence. The welfare state would shrink to a skeleton. Charity would fill the gaps. Flags would proliferate; rights would not. The police and courts would be politicised. The BBC could disappear. The NHS would survive only as a minimal safety net. Protections against discrimination would erode - you might indeed be sacked for being disabled. Migrants and even their British-born children could find their rights curtailed unless they were deemed to "contribute" sufficiently. Meanwhile, the wealthiest would enjoy a generous, low-tax regime.
βRarely has a British political party unveiled a programme that combines cruelty with impracticality on such an extravagant scale.β
Chilling on Reformβs increasingly confident fascism. High on viciousness and greed. Very low on wisdom. A ruinous combination.

I think it inappropriate for a royal visit to the United States to take place under the current US administration. We do not approve of shooting protesters and the incarceration of innocent people!

This needs to be seen by:
The families of staff and students
The entire university staff
The population of Bangor and Wales in general.
The entire U.K. university sector!
"Didn't she have a lovely time the day she didn't go to Bangor"
A wise choice. Please help keep beautiful Wales Farage free.
How not to win friends and influence people! These threats need to be understood far and wide!

"Brexit was not a British political issue, but a foreign conspiracy trying to weaken the forces trying to combat oligarchy."
There is mases of evidence originating in Russia and the US, the culture wars created by the likes of Farage.
Brexit was a massive treason.

Considering the damage he has done to this Government and this country already, he is getting off very fucking lightly!.
There should be law AGAINST lobbyists, ThinkTanks, overal nefarious people doing the work of very rich companies.
Time to repair is NOW!.
The ignorant and hard of thinking will destroy the U.K. They started with Brexit and may finish the job by electing the latest Farage grifting project!

I must say, even as a Tory, that Reform can never be accused of hypocrisy.
For instance Nigel Farage saying Mr Starmerβs association with Mr Mandelson was a βGrave error of judgementβ & he should resign.
Mr Farageβs βassociationsβ could NEVER be called grave errors of judgement.π€
