Reform leader Nigel Farage committed 17 breaches of Parliamentary Standards by late-registering payments from GB News, Direct Bullion, Baron App/others totaling £384,000
He got no punishment
Imagine how you would be punished if your tax returns on £384,000 were 120 days late

So many poor children suffering and being ignored and deaths in clinically vulnerable children who deserve to have long lives. Where is the empathy from our governments, these are children 😔

Research ties long #COVID in kids to chronic school absenteeism, learning problems
Long COVID was also linked to a higher prevalence of anxiety and depression.

It’s a real shame that Nigel Farage is too unwell to do interviews the morning after Donald Trump threatens us with sanctions.
Here he is with “the bravest man he ever met”. He campaigned to make Trump President, and has spent the last year enjoying all the chaos he has caused.

And she's not alone, hundreds of thousands routinely wait 12+ hours for a bed. So why isn't Keir Starmer backing our plan to end 12 hour waits?

So they’re joining Reform, so they can complain about the Tory record - and you can vote them right back in, in a few years’ time, under new anti-Tory branding.
