Countdown: The steady shedding of Reform councillors and officials continues… – HOPE not hate Drunken displays, racist rants and dodgy deals are just some of the reasons that Reform councillors and officials are dropping like flies… While Reform UK...

Three persons in inflatable frog costumes. One of them is holding a nicely painted sign with two little cartoon frogs holding hands, below the text "FROGS TOGETHER STRONG"

Zia Yusuf being made to look a fool by Polanski, the audience not buying in to Reform’s divisive rhetoric…maybe the country isn’t as desperate for a far-right government as 90% of UK media tells us it is

Maybe

So Reform get elected on a promise to cut costs and then raise the wages of the chief executive as soon as they get elected. The thick racist wankers who vote for these fascist corrupt pigs, deserve everything they get.

A vote for Nigel Farage & Reform is a vote to sign off on the sale of our country to int’l interests

To literally anyone who offers random Reform MP’s a life of more luxury in return for control of our services, employers & infrastructure

Fight the greed.
Fight the greedy.
Vote Green.

How do dodgy tax advisers respond when faced with evidence they created fake tax relief claims?

1️⃣ Admit it?
2️⃣ Say it was an honest mistake?
3️⃣ Threat and bluster?

The answer is unlikely to surprise you.

Victory on appeal: peaceful anti-religious protesting is not a crime.

Victory on appeal: peaceful anti-religious protesting is not a crime.

BREAKING: A man who burnt a Quran outside the Turkish Embassy in London has had his conviction for religiously motivated harassment, alarm, or distress overturned on appeal by Southwark Crown Court. A huge victory for free speech and a blow against the revival of blasphemy laws. 🧡

Inside billionaire Peter Thiel’s private lectures: Warnings of β€˜the Antichrist’ and U.S. destruction In leaked recordings of private lectures by tech billionaire Peter Thiel he argued that β€œthe Antichrist” is likely to take the form of a critic of technology.

Conservative tech lord Thiel said tighter financial regulations β€œwere a sign that a singular world government has begun to emerge that could be taken over by an Antichrist figure who could then use it to exert control over people.” Via WashPost
