Farage's party of privately educated ex-Tory millionaires, tax dodgers, and expatriates ... defeated by a Green Party plumber/plasterer.
The Reform elite/establishment is crumbling?

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

They’re pedophilic murderers using racist and fascism as a shield.

Nigel Farage is under pressure to sack the former Royal Navy rear admiral that Reform UK picked as its candidate for mayor of Hampshire after he doubled down on remarks about the "loyalties" of David Lammy.
Mr Farage has stood by Chris Parry, 72, after he suggested that deputy prime minister Mr Lammy, who was born and brought up in London, should "go home" to the Caribbean where his
"loyalties lie".
Despite being widely condemned, Mr Parry has now defended his original comment, posting on X (Twitter): "Well, home is where the heart is. That's the point."

Labour chair Anna Turley told The Independent that Mr Farage now needs to ditch the candidate for the postponed Hampshire mayoral election in 2028.
She said: "How big does the mountain of racist and grossly offensive comments Chris Parry has made have to get before Nigel Farage throws him out of Reform? It's disgraceful.

"Farage's refusal to take action against racism in his party shows what a dark place he's dragging politics to. He should finally drop Chris Parry as a candidate, kick him out of his party, and apologise for failing to take action sooner."

Reform politicians double down on their racism because they’re proudly racist.
Farage won’t apologise for his or his party’s racism because he needs his racist voters on side.
Reform is racist. Farage is racist.
Don’t call for apologies. Call them what they are.

The reason ALL of the Epstein files haven’t been released.

Is because of Donald Trump.

Because he’s in the majority of them.

Logics dictates that he is an absolute depraved pervert.

β€˜Fat cats’ preying on veterinary practices Senedd hears private equity firms have been accused of collaring the market in a corporate 'feeding frenzy' that has seen local, independent vets…

Private equity firms preying on vets practices.

6 firms control 60% of UK practices. Same firms control pet food, insurance.

Wages down, fees up. Pet owners skipping meals to cover costs, hand pets to rescue organisations or euthanising them.

Change law. Only qualified vets to own vet practices.

Thames Water is teetering but wants to pay Β£2.5m bonus to execs.

Wants to bypass regulations by classifying bonuses as "retention payments".

Prices rose by 31%+ this year. Sewage dumped in rivers, leaks unplugged.

Privatisation = Abuses and insanity.

The chart shows where spending on social security is shown as a share of GDP. As this makes plain, total welfare spending in Britain in 2025-26 is estimated to be 10.8 per cent of GDP. This is 0.8 per cent of GDP higher than it stood on the eve of the global financial crisis in 2007-08. But since 2012-13 (the peak in the post-GFC recession), total welfare spending has fallen by 1.2 per cent of GDP. Added to this, welfare spending is expected to rise by just 0.1 per cent of GDP across the forecast period until 2029-30 (after U-turns and before any decisions made at the Budget).

Is welfare spending ''out of control''?

Total welfare spending in Britain in 2025-26 is estimated to be 10.8 per cent of GDP.

That's just 0.8 per cent of GDP higher than in 2007-08, and total welfare spending has actually fallen fallen by 1.2 per cent of GDP since 2012-13‡️

The number of British citizens emigrating hasn’t increased, btw. Outward migration is up, but the increase is mostly non-EU migrants leaving the UK.

The methodology counting emigration of British citizens changed in 2021, which increased the number, and it’s been pretty much flat ever since…

Irony: People saying the BBC is biased towards the left when a big part of why they’ve all been radicalised to vote Tory and Reform is BECAUSE of (yes you guessed it) the BBC’s right wing bias.

Couldn’t make it up.

Rachel Reeves’ budget must reduce inequalities and increase spending capacity of the masses This is how to secure sustained economic growth

The UK state hands subsidies to corporations, doesn't invest directly in new industries, infrastructure'.

Corporate profits, dividends boom.

UK is left behind
UK invested 18.2% of GDP in productive assets
OECD countries' average 23%
China 40.4%
India 30.5%.

Neoliberalism is destroying the UK
