Royal Mail isn't delivering letters to maximise profit.
English water is filled with sewage and is killing people.
UK Energy is the most expensive in the world.

All of these things are privatised and all of them are the worst ever.

Oh dear that's two reform councillors gone in 2 days in Durham and this one isn't holding back. Craftywank will hopefully be gone soon.

Week by week - Laura Kuenssberg is interviewing the party leaders.

When I agreed to come on the show, I was told Nigel Farage was also doing it.

He's now pulled out - and they've sent the deputy instead.

The same Nigel Farage who's refusing to debate me.

A pattern emerging...

A video showing people tearing down a poster of Nicolás Maduro has been shared with captions suggesting the footage was filmed after the Venezuelan leader was seized by the US.

But this video is actually from 2024, after the disputed presidential election.

Nigel Farage says allegations he said "Hitler was right" while a pupil at Dulwich College and "gas 'em all" to Jewish schoolmates are "maybe solidifying our core support".

Farage is finally admitting that his party are fascists and Neo Nazis.

Anyone who votes for them will be judged the same.

Reform UK Review 2025

After winning local elections criticising councils for raising council tax, Reform UK councils plan to raise council tax.

Worcestershire applies to raise it by 10%.

I quote from Andrew Tate’s X profile:

‘Unmatched perspicacity coupled with sheer indefatigability makes me a feared opponent in any realm of human endeavour.’

Erm…
This is certainly not the case when it comes to boxing Andy.
Oh dear.
You poor little love.

New Home Office impact assessment finds that cutting skilled and social care visas will cost the UK up to £10 billion with a central estimate of -£5.4 billion.

It would be good if this got even a fraction of the coverage devoted to the endless debate about boats, flags and Turkish barber shops

Nigel Farage won't apologise for his history of racism because "if he apologised, he would be turning to his own support base and saying, ‘You’re all guilty too,'" a Reform source tells the Times.

So essentially he was a racist and he believes his supporters are racists too

No Reform representative on the Laura Kuenssberg show for two weeks running - that's a record! It's almost as though we didn't want to talk about the 28 witnesses to my teenage racism and antisemic abuse.

One of my abiding impressions of Brexit is the way it slammed doors of opportunity in the faces of young people several rungs below Boris Johnson’s countless children on the ladders of privilege & advantage.

Nigel Farage went to Dulwich college which charges £55,155 a year.

He then went on to be a Stock Trader like Rishi Sunak, he has never worked a day in his life.

The predictable crushing uniformity of the coverage of this Budget tells you an awful lot about the priorities of those papers, and also why there's actually quite a lot to praise in it bylinetimes.com/2025/11/26/t...
