Can I commend @stephenkb for his remarkable analysis of the Henry Nowak's case and the Police's reaction to what they were confronted with and the actual law. Every politician should read it before they seek to make political capital out of a tragedy.
Dear Reform-voting ladies…
Do you know you’re voting for a party that wants to:
❌ Scrap the Equality Act - your legal protection against workplace discrimination & unequal pay
❌ Kill the Online Safety Act - the law protecting you from revenge porn
❌ Vote AGAINST the bill to stop workplace sexual harassment
❌ Stack the party with anti-abortion politicians - some opposing termination even in cases of rape
❌ Push “pro-family” policies that put women back in the home
I guess the question is…
Do you hate immigrants more than you love your rights?
@campbellclaret Meanwhile in Suffolk Reform tell local media, including BBC, that they will only speak with GB News. So much for scrutiny and accountability. Proof positive that #GBNews is the propaganda arm of Reform. Ofcom?

@BethRigby I am surprised he spoke with you. In Suffolk Reform has said they will not speak with local media. They will only speak to GBNews! So much for accountability and welcoming scrutiny!

Sharing, without comment, British newspapers’ depictions of the only Jewish person currently leading a UK political party .
Times. Mail. Telegraph. Sun.
Statements that have now come to light from a handful of @TheGreenParty candidates are totally unacceptable & require immediate action. There’s no place for anti-semitism or any hate speech in the party. This is a society-wide problem & needs to be rooted out wherever it’s found
Reform state of play since early April
- Tice - reported to HMRC
- Jenrick - reported to Police / Standards over donation from a US felon
- Farage - £5 million reasons to be referred to Standards
- Rosindell - reported to Electoral Commission over false representation
- Yusuf - reported to Electoral Commission reference the 'threats' reference detention centres ... EC states complaints should be made to the Police
- Reform - reported to Police over the 'Energy Bills competition'
Impressive for a Party of 8 MPs
In September 2024 Nigel Farage said he couldn't do in-person surgeries in Clacton because of safety concerns
But in April 2026, Nigel Farage claimed that his £5 million donation in Spring 2024 from Christopher Harborne was for his security
Why did Nigel Farage take a £5 million gift for security then not use it for his security so he could run in-person surgeries like MPs are meant to?
FT- Local authorities in England & Wales have increased spending on the biggest children’s care providers by 20% above inflation in the past two years, giving the providers’ private equity or sovereign wealth fund owners steady guaranteed revenues. #change
Watch one of Nigel Farage’s Reform candidates react as racist tweets from his own X account - including one apparently excusing the rape of a Sikh woman and one that declares white people are “the master race” - are read to him.
The footage is from a joint investigation by @murphy_simon , @DailyMirror & @hopenothate that exposes Stuart Prior for a slew of hateful comments. Reform said it was “looking into” posts.
Liked #BenAnsell's piece in @prospect_uk, particularly this, "that's the irony in trying to be disruptive,(Reform) whilst representing voters suffused with nostalgia."
