Single Market membership would bring certainty, lower costs and give firs access to customers and supply chains without constant paperwork and delays. It would support growth in goods and services, not just tidy up the margins. This is the pragmatic route back to serious economic Join the Single Market.

The Single Market was responsible for 41% of the UK’s exports in 2024, and remains the largest trading bloc in the world. Rejoining would eliminate trade barriers for most goods and services, control consumer prices, and allow capital, goods and people to move freely.

Ed Davey, "We rightly expect our armed forces to protect British citizens around the world in crisis like this"

"But that includes tax exiles like Isabel Oakeshott who mock ordinary people who stay in the UK and pay our taxes here"

Under a Reform UK government, only
British citizens will be able to vote.




FARAGE: Letting non-British citizens vote in
UK threatens democracy

Farage and Reform are bad losers.

Their failure to secure the seat was down to the vast majority of voters roundly rejecting their hate because Gorton and Denton is a progressive place.

68% of voters in the constituency voted Green, Labour or Lib Dem.

Don't let them use lies to twist the truth.

Nigel Farage refuses to apologise and condemn Reform councillor Simon Evans for sharing a death threat against Labour MP Natalie Fleet 😱

Keir Starmer explained what happened and invited Nigel Farage to apologise

Instead, Nigel Farage stood up and spoke about something else

"Goodwin is now asking voters in one of Manchester’s most deprived constituencies to trust him as their champion against the establishment. His diary suggests the establishment already has him on speed dial."

When you scratch the surface of people like Farage, and its a small scratch at that, they shift the rhetoric somewhere else. Guaranteed next week, he and is club of vile, will be whining about something else.

To all Reform female voters or members. You can't be serious in your support. Think long and hard what this means.
