Refreshing to hear a working class voice succinctly analysing the current state of politics.
As Labour fall apart after a whole series of disasters, the outcome of this by-election is crucial.
Vote Reform-you'll lose human rights & become poorer. #VoteGreen & you've got a w/c champion on your side.
Why do we need working-class politicians?

The SNP Scottish Govt have invested in our schools with more staff, more teachers, over 90% of schools new or refurbished & the best paid teachers in the UK. And the lower unemployment for Scots young people leaving school than in England & Wales. Good progress & always more to do!
School spending in Scotland has increased by more than £1 billion in real terms over the past decade.

Scots Gov/Local authority funding across Primary, Secondary and Special schools rose to £7 billion in 2024-25, up 19.7%.

The highest education spending per head in the UK.

Why would voters upset about immigration still vote for the Green Party?

It's a question key to understanding how we change this country 👇👇👇

As we near the 10th anniversary of Brexit, with evidence the damage to our economy is even worse than predicted, time to remind ourselves of Brexit Battalions ‘Media Corps’ who pushed for and celebrated this. Good time to tag them in. Any apologies?

The minimum wage is not enough to live on
Which is why so many people in the UK have 2nd 3rd jobs

But Reform Ltd want poor people to be even poorer!

"Reform UK's Richard Tice has said his party would look at cutting the minimum wage if it got into government"

Welcome to hell campers.

Farage & ex-Tories greet the camera with feigned enthusiasm as they plot to empty your pockets & strip you of your human rights.

"What's that you say? A question? No, no, Mr Farage is too grand to answer questions".

Not sure why Reform announcing they’ll scrap the Equality Act 2010 hasn’t provoked widespread alarm.
They want to torch our human rights framework AND repeal our right to protection from discrimination.
A smile and a shrug on BBC News.
What the hell?
FFS, media. Tell people what this really means.

You've appointed Tories to your top team. Why should people believe your party is any different?

Farage: "These were two people who were ministers, but frankly weren't ministers for very long".

Suella Braverman was a minister for over 4 years.

Robert Jenrick was a minister for almost 5 years.

Is anyone surprised at that BBC at it best.
🇬🇧 The rising unemployment rate in the “uk” is Headline news on bbc Network

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 The reducing unemployment rate in Scotland, which is now 38% lower than in England, is a news blackout with bbc Scotlandshire

🇬🇧 It’s called ‘propaganda by omission’, a recognised method of influencing public opinion

Nigel Farage lashes out at a FT journalist and refuses to answer the question.

Is this how Reform UK would ignore media questions if they got into government?
