What Reform Ltd won't tell people
is that negative migration
would send the British economy
spiralling into depression

"A major shift in UK migration trends could have serious consequences for the countryโ€™s economy, workforce, and public finances"

Reform millionaires like Yusef and Farage belittle poverty as if its not a fact that around 2 in every 10 working-age adults are in poverty in the UK with around 3 in every 10 children being in poverty. That's roughly 14.2 million people in the UK.

Orbรกnโ€™s pay cheques: Reform candidate fuelled by profits from Russian oil The Reform candidate at this monthโ€™s byelection claims he wants to put Britain first, but is he still on the payroll of Viktor Orbรกnโ€™s far-right propaganda unit?

Blimey. Looks like Matt Goodwin, who seems to think the Handmaid's Tale is an instruction manual, is in the pay of an Orban think tank, funded by Russian oil money.

Over 2,000 Britons served for Israel amid Gaza genocide Exclusive: Declassified obtained data on the number of UK nationals in the IDF. We are publishing it for the first time

Last year the Public Interest Law Centre (PILC) gave the Met Police war crimes unit a complaint against 10 Britons serving in the IDF.

We've revealed there are over 2,000.

PILC says our findings show โ€œthe issue is far deeper than we could ever believe.โ€

The group that helped to get Sir Keir Starmer elected as Labour leader hired lobbyists to investigate the personal, political and religious background of a Sunday Times journalist behind an article about secret donations that funded its work.

The Prime Minister says he changed the Labour Party.

He's right. He changed it from a party of principle, workers and peace, to a party of patronage, the establishment and war.

Poverty, corruption and complicity in genocide. That will be his government's legacy.

We all know the Lab right are a bunch of self serving, back stabbers. They wrecked, smeared & lied to regain control of Lab as a vehicle for the enrichment of themselves & their rich pals & they'll now do whatever it takes to stay on top (while they drive the party off a cliff)

This statement is itself an example of disingenuous, misrepresenting and lying about the facts in which the last GE resulted. Labour vote went down from 40%to 34% with a lower turnout. The massive majority came from Tories losing votes to Reform.

Morgan McSweeney and his downfall reveal what the Starmer project always was.

A project defined by kneeling before wealth, seeking power for its own sake, ridding Labour of any principle or morality.

It is an irredeemably corrupt project which was always doomed.

National Insurance is a regressive tax that hits the less well-off hardest Compared to income tax, national insurance contributions attract little sustained scrutiny even though they provide large amounts to the public purse.

Regressive Taxation.

Wages taxed at marginal rates of 20% to 45% + National Insurance.

Capital gains taxed at 18% to 32%: dividends taxed at 8.75% to 39.35%; No NIC levied.

Successive govts appease the rich. Difference in rates/NIC fuels tax abuse industry, public purse robbed of billions.

Politicians and CEOs who were mentioned in the Epstein Files are either resigning in disgrace or being criminally investigated, so how is it okay for the orange felon to remain in power when he is mentioned the most in the files as well as is actively covering up damaging info.

The General Medical Council has been hijacked by Zionists.

The time is long overdue for a public inquiry to address the fact that all of our public institutions are dominated by a genocidal foreign state.

Andrew Windsor had 24/7 Scotland Yard protection, when he was with Epstein, when Virginia Guiffre first met him, when he raped under-age girls
They report to the Met & Royal household
So police, Royals, Governments knew about Epstein & Andrews behaviour all along
