  1. I hope there's a general election after all this nonsense because I really need to see more of this guy, and I don't mean Andy. #CountBinface #GeneralElection #Labour #UKPolitics #AndyBurham

  3. independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli. The fuss that's being made over 0.32% of #GDP in the next #Parliament in 4 years' time is astonishing, & assumes - falsely - that #Labour will still be in power in 2030 to determine the level of #defence #spending, when, at the rate things are going, it's far more likely to be #ReformUK, God help us. Of course, if #proportionalrepresentation was to be introduced & implemented in time for the next #GeneralElection, that would be FAR less likely!

  5. #Reform #UK #Makerfield candidate was friends with #neo-fascist leader

    Facebook screenshot shows #Kenyon’s friend list included #Raikes, whose profile image included the words “New British Union” – group advocating #fascist revolution

    The Times reported 41 of Reform’s candidates in #GeneralElection were friends with Raikes. He was leader in #Scotland of British National Party (BNP) before founding the New British Union

  7. I'm wondering if one tactic of #ReformUK and their supporters is simply to try and disrupt local #government and services as much as possible (or at least let them stagnate), whilst putting the blame on the #Labour central government in the hope of a win in the #GeneralElection ?

    This would mean that having these sketchy candidates isn't a major loss (as they can always find someone else to replace them, and it doesn't matter if they are useless)

  9. theguardian.com/politics/2026/. He can't! If #Starmer stays on as #Labour #leader, the #LabourParty will be dead & buried at the next #GeneralElection, & given his probable replacements, it's likely to be dead & buried anyway. They've destroyed themselves with their own right-wing #policies & #political #strategy. If only more working-class people understood that voting for #ReformUK wasn't the answer to their frustrations!

  11. disabilitynewsservice.com/call. "Disabled people & their organisations can push back against the rise of the far-right by joining a mass demonstration in London later this month - or by taking part in the #protest #online - say #disability #rights #activists." A #ReformUK #Government after the next #GeneralElection would be an absolute catastrophe for all #disabled people in this country, as well as for all other minorities - other than the #rich!
