First Past the Post can no longer deliver real mandates - only chaos. 60% of Brits want it scrapped.

Yet the Representation of the People Bill wonโ€™t even touch our voting system, which leaves millions unrepresented.

Tell Keir Starmer to change this.

Wes Streeting, Health Secretary: "Farage has announced his Shadow Cabinet, with no Health Secretary.

Presumably because if he becomes Prime Minister, thereโ€™ll be no NHS."

'Nigel Farage's Reform are not the workers' champions - look at their policies' Keir Starmer's former director of policy Claire Ainsley says Reform UK 'promise the earth on the doorstep and pose as the peopleโ€™s champions, yet their policies and actions tell a different story'

In other words: "We're not reversing this disastrous Brexit, but we're not reversing it more politely than the previous government."
๐Ÿ˜ก How the f*ck is this ridiculous decision still being followed considering all the problems we now face? What a complete betrayal of Britain's future!

Reform Ltd say they'll end poverty
Reform Ltd says they're patriotic

But billionaires create poverty
And Reform Ltd is funded by billionaires

So 'patriotic' they move
to Thailand, Monaco, Dubai
to avoid UK tax

Don't be a turkey voting for Christmas
Don't vote Reform Ltd

โ€œIโ€™ve said it time & time again - we need to leave the ECHRโ€ says Reform candidate Matt Goodwin

The ECHR protects us all. The rights within it โ€“ firmly implanted into UK law by the Human Rights Act โ€“ are the reason why families devastated by disasters like Hillsborough could demand justice

Itโ€™s partly to appease his US evangelical mates that want a global abortion ban . They think all women should want to be mothers , itโ€™s God ordained .

I'm beginning to suspect austerity, spiralling rents, cost of living crisis, crumbling schools, doesn't encourage people to have children?

The fact that Reform want people to have more kids and also want to end working from home shows how incoherent their world view is.

Reform candidate called it โ€˜insaneโ€™ to jail man who said โ€˜burn asylum hotelsโ€™ Exclusive: It comes after The Independent revealed that Matt Goodwin called for โ€˜young girlsโ€™ to be given โ€˜biological realityโ€™ check

Matt Goodwin said in a post on X: โ€œWelcome to the UK. Where you go to prison for 18 months for anti-immigration tweets. This is insane.โ€

No. What is insane is shrugging off incitement to racial murder.

Put this man in the bin, not the House of Commons.

Reform just revealed its plan to tackle poverty is to deny it exists Reform's Zia Yusuf is an oily, little nerd who wants to tell poor people they're not poor, because his spreadsheet says otherwise

Next time someone from #Reform like Laila #Cunningham starts going on about protecting our Women and Children, ask her who she's talking about protecting them from....

Unbelievably this wasnโ€™t even raised on SkyNews just now during the interview with Reform's head of policy Zia Yusuf.

If UK news shows wonโ€™t call this boll**** out letโ€™s do it ourselves

Wellโ€ฆ

The Royals, the Tories, Lib Demโ€™s and the most notorious child trafficker in history facilitating some horrendous thingsโ€ฆ

I have to say no wonder people are abandoning the mainstream parties.

Also where is the Pressure on Cameron/Clegg on finding out what they knew?

Johnson, Gove, Rees-Mogg, and possibly David Davis were plotting with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and white supremacist Steve Bannon to bring down a British Prime Minister. Why this treason isnโ€™t front-page news is a disgrace for the journalistic profession in the UK.

The UK media has been woefully quiet about this!
