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.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

Thanks

Govts of Australia, Bermuda, Canada, Cayman, China, France, Germany Italy, Japan, Korea, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Qatar, Singapore, Spain, UAE, US would like to thank UK for letting their entities own UK infrastructure.

Vast profits exported, Britons stare at sewage in rivers.

If the government wants economic growth it must bring essential industries into public ownership

Successive governments clobber households and small businesses by hiking interest rates to manage inflation, but don’t inconvenience corporations.

The Green Party is polling higher than ever before. Our membership is growing rapidly.
And every single day we are surging.

Where Labour have failed, the Left must be ready to take on Reform.

Zack Polanski is a breath of fresh air, because he is exposing far right populism and all the lies. And everyone is listening because they've had enough. Labour , Tories and Reform are all the same now and that's why he stands out exposing all their hypocrisy.

On #BBCQT - Fiona Bruce said that the audience and public didn't want to press Reform UK on their dodgy links to Russia.

I disagree.

RT if you agree it's in the public interest for Reform to explain about their links to Russian money and bribery!

Fiona Bruce shuts down Zack Polanski's attempt to press Zia Yusuf over Reform UK's links to Putin.

"Bribrary from Russia. Pretty serious for our national security."

"There's other things that the audience wants to talk about", Bruce responds.

Good on @zackpolanski.bsky.social.

And it’s still got Labour worried.

Because they know the situation they’re in is unrecoverable.

They embraced flirting with fascism and pushed away their base who aren’t coming back while while the right wingers aren’t tempted to eat diet fash when they have full fat farage at home.
