Reform UK have repeatedly said that Kent is their "flagship" council and "the shop window" for how they intend to run things.
When they are exposed as planning to slash social care for old people, in order to hire their cronies as advisors at £150k a pop, I think people should believe them. ~AA

Wonderful to visit the new Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease in Leeds with Rob’s family.
What a place and what a difference he and they will make for families coming after them.
Thanks to everyone who donated and, of course, to the great Kevin Sinfield. 🙏🏻

HURRAH! Petitions are crap at making gov'ts do things they don't want to. But they are good for two things: First, making them explain why they won't do something, but second (and more important) nudging/giving them permission to do something they DO want, but that's been crowded out bandwidth-wise.

Trump hates Europe’s democracies because they have universal health care, a strong social welfare system and heavy unionization.
He prefers MBS’s Saudi Arabia, where one trillionaire family runs a brutal dictatorship.
What a betrayal of American values!

The fascist authoritarian Trump regime is hands down the most cruel, inhumane, and sadistic presidency in modern history. The barbaric brutality of the pedophile president's ICE Gestapo is identical to Nazis hunting down Jewish people in 1934 Germany. 😳👇

This is vile and so so wrong. GB News is the TV version of X.
Extreme racism like this should not be platformed as ‘news.’
It is absolutely disgusting and another attempt to drag ‘debate’ to the right and destabilise our democracy.
