FIFA make last-gasp change to World Cup stadium rules: BANNING fans from bringing refillable plastic bottles, so fans must buy water in stadia
As of May, empty bottles permitted so fans could refill amid heat concerns. Not now

Yep. It’s almost funny.
@RobKenyonReform never came to 1 meeting on Ashton Library. Me, cllrs and residents worked backsides off to save it.
In politics, berating ppl on socials doesn’t get stuff done.
He’s local, angry, but no plan to actually DO anything. Like @reformparty_uk
@hamishrhaddow@LBC What exactly do you want? The killers who stabbed Henry 5 times and then lied to the police about it, has been sentenced to 21 years. Nothing can bring him back from the dead
@LizMcInnes60@JohnCleese I suspect Liz that you haven't seen many of John's recent tweets, if you had then you probably wouldn't be disappointed in him for this one. He went full tonto ages ago
@ElizabethBowhay@lowles_nick@campbellclaret I think the potential issue is that Kenyon's localness is the only reason he has put forward as to why anyone should vote for him, as he is reluctant to talk about any policy
Makerfield Heating Ltd: The Company Behind the Candidate
Robert Francis Kenyon is asking the people of Makerfield to send him to Parliament on 18 June. Before they decide, there are some documents worth examining.
Makerfield Heating Ltd, company number 17014370, was incorporated on 5 February 2026. Sole director: Robert Francis Kenyon, born March 1985, 30 Hamilton Road, Ashton-in-Makerfield, Wigan, WN4 0SU. SIC code 43220. Plumbing, heating and air conditioning installation.
Every Google review is five stars. One was left by Ann Kenyon. The owner thanked her personally by name.
Two further reviewers, Paul Smith and Leila Haider, each have only one Google review to their name. Both are for Makerfield Heating Ltd. Paul Smith's profile is restricted. Smith's name appears in local Reform and Kenyon social media comments as an apparent supporter.
The company has a registered domain, https://t.co/OBGNFVOeJo. It returns a Wix placeholder. No website has been built behind it. A trading plumbing business in a competitive local market with five star reviews but no functioning website raises an obvious question about who those reviews are actually for.
Kenyon was elected to Wigan Council on 7 May 2026, representing Bryn with Ashton-in-Makerfield North. His declarations of interest page currently shows no entries. Newly elected councillors have 28 days from taking office to register disclosable pecuniary interests including directorships. That window has not yet closed. Makerfield Heating Ltd does not currently appear on any public register of interests anywhere.
A formal right of reply was sent to Mr Kenyon by email at 11:15am on Sunday 24 May 2026. The questions covered the relationship between Ann Kenyon and the company, the connection between Paul Smith, Leila Haider and the company, and his satisfaction with the authenticity of all reviews.
The deadline was 11:15am Tuesday 26 May 2026.
No response was received.
This weekend, the Observer reported that Kenyon had made anti-abortion comments on a rugby league discussion forum in 2019, calling abortion the cowardly act of murdering a defenceless baby and suggesting women fabricate rape claims to terminate pregnancies. He admitted in further unearthed posts: "I'm sexist, sorry but I am." The Mirror reported Carol Vorderman calling him a disgusting online abuser after sexually explicit comments about her were found on deleted accounts. The Times has today reported that in 2019 Kenyon stated he did not vote for Brexit, writing that he woke up the morning after the result terrified by what had been voted for. Reform have made Brexit a central dividing line in this by-election campaign.
Reform UK's response to all of it: "These comments were made before he entered politics."
Robert Kenyon entered politics in May 2026. Makerfield Heating Ltd was incorporated in February 2026. The van Nigel Farage rode in during the campaign was bought three months ago.
Views don't change. They just get hidden.
A right of reply was offered to Robert Kenyon and to Reform UK. Neither responded within the deadline.
Hid £5million quid, says it is only exposed because he was hacked (seemingly not reported to Parliament nor Police) - AND SAYS HE IS THE VICTIM 🤣🤣🤣
Robert Jenrick claims Nigel Farage is a 'victim' of Russian hacking who 'doesn't get any help from the authorities'

@RobFilthUK@ToryFibs Your have very strong views about Burnham as a constituency MP and about whether he cares about the local area, despite not having any local knowledge about what he is like as mayor or was like as an MP previously
For a man who oversaw net migration of 685,000 whilst he was an immigration minister (and 1.2m inward migration in total), I’m not sure Robert Jenrick has any credibility on this issue…
Open Door Jenrick!!
This is astonishing. Butlerian Jihad stuff. Listen to the boos and jeers.
I'm a millennial. My dad was in IT. I grew up through all the major milestones of the digital era. I've never seen a new technology pushed with this kind of arrogance, or inspire this kind of backlash.
@MJsvg@EvertonBlueArmy He looked slow as hell when he came on, and it looked like if he was sharper then he could have cleared to avoid the third goal. It is a shame but he is well past it now
@FplKaz@CONRANE@LBC@lewis_goodall Burnham spent 16 years in parliament, lots of it in the shadow cabinet and across different briefs. IIRC Johnson had two disastrous years as Foreign Secretary before resigning and returning to his highly paid second job
