@PWPNation @TheJimCornette “My politics evolved during Covid” is code for “I became a conspiracy theorist”.

This is what people voted for...fucking hell :D

Bizarre moment Reform Councillor Kieran Lay, Thorne and Moorends Ward, asks Full Council for measures to monitor UFO activity as part of reopening Doncaster Sheffield Airport.

Step 1- Work towards cutting council tax.
Step 2- Set up a panel for UAP sightings.

Couldn't make this up... #doncasterreform #reform
