Only BBC News, Sky News & ITV News can explain why they are hiding it from their viewers. It’s complete dereliction particularly from the public service broadcaster.

Reform Party UK Exposed @reformexposed.bsky.social · 1d

Eight Reform UK councils have indicated that they will raise council tax next year after struggling to find huge cuts in public spending.

That’s despite Reform UK flyers during the Local Elections criticising councils for doing just that.

Never trust a Reformer.

Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia.

Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?

Farage and his allies have a long history of being associated with Russian funding and trying to avoid scrutiny and investigation of it. This from 2015:

One of Russia’s main supply routes from China has been shut down. From today, the border with Kazakhstan is fully stopped.. over 5,000 trucks are stuck, inspections are ongoing, and goods are being confiscated. Drones, EW gear, batteries, components, nothing is getting through.
