Here it is! 💥💥💥
The start of the Tory-Reform election pact. Arch-Brexiter Rees-Mogg is telling Tories in the Caerphilly by-election to vote RefUK. With Plaid Cymru leading in the progressive camp, the other anti-fascist parties have to get behind Plaid!

The worst hatemonger of the Western world, who pardoned extremists who stormed the Capitol on January 6, deports immigrants, alienates US allies and supports genocidal killer Putin, blames the 'radical left' for political violence.

“But calling the world’s most infamous paedophile and child trafficker ‘your best pal’ among other comments, that’s ok? It stinks to high heaven.”

The people who brought you Brexit on a promise of ‘control’ now threaten civil unrest and frothing racism as govt policy…

No commitment to scrap two-child benefit cap until funding is clear – UK minister.
