Hey Nottinghamshire.

This is how your Reform council is spending your money. Funded by your 4.84% council tax rise.

"Protecting the United States From Foreign Terrorists and Other National Security and Public Safety Threats". Ironic as Trump is probably their biggest risk.

PS I have no plans of visiting the US. Canada, well that's different :-)
US could ask tourists for five-year social media history before entry
The plan would affect people from countries, including the UK, which can fill out a form in lieu of a visa.

What a victory! Today MPs narrowly backed our bill to cut the Brexit red tape and end this economic nightmare.

The PM must listen to Parliament and the public, drop his self-imposed red lines and go for growth with a new customs union.

Nigel Farage publicly promoted cryptocurrency Tether, and then received a massive donation from one of its major investors. The whole thing stinks.

That’s why @LisaSmartMP.bsky.social has written to the electoral commission calling for an urgent investigation. ⬇️

Donald Trump is a Kremlin stooge who wants to sell out Ukraine and the rest of Europe to Putin. We can't let that happen.

Starmer should seize frozen Russian assets in this country - today - and convince Merz and Macron to do the same.
