Look at who's bankrolling Reform: the fossil fuel industry and crypto billionaires.
They're smart enough to know which buttons to press to get people to vote against their own interests.
You'd think voters might be wise to this playbook after Brexit failed, but it seems you can fool people twice.

I asked for years, with no results except accusations of 'antisemitism' & 'trolling', whatever THAT is
Not a single quote or clip of @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social which would stand up in court
