Hi Russell, considering I am the only Labour Councillor on the authority and I was not at the induction (as I have been here 9 years), this is a complete lie and a breach of standards @reformexposed

200,000 people in 8 years. That is only 0.29% of the UK population over 8 years.

Yet it’s in the news every single day.

In that same time 4,000,000 people have emigrated away from the UK (twenty times as many people).

The news is in league with Farage. Sadly it’s working.

BBC and the UK print media covering this any moment now . . . . . Any moment.

He called for others to resign over tax errors

If he has any integrity, he will resign

If not, Farage must sack hypocrite Tice

🚨Sunday Times investigation today:

Richard Tice’s companies appear to have failed to pay £100,000+ in corporation tax on profits, while funnelling over £1 million in donations to Reform UK.

Tice calls it a “technicality” but critics say it looks like aggressive tax avoidance benefiting both him personally and his party.

The party that campaigns hardest against the establishment and tax avoidance now finds itself accused of exactly that.

[Don McGowan @donmcgowan]

This is you though, right?

Campaigning against Angela Rayner over a FAR less serious tax 'error'.

[Jim Cornelius @Jim_Cornelius]

This is you, former Conservative MP, now sitting Reform MP, Andrew Rosindell, writing to former President of the United States, Joe Biden 6 years ago proposing the UK hands to Chagos islands to Mauritius and rents them back on a 99-year lease.

"Britain is building a culture where people think they can do what they like and nothing will happen."

So is this official Reform policy then?

‘Is there anyone else you know who has had a 28.9% pay rose in the last 3 years,’ asks Nick Robinson disbelievingly of an NHS doctor.

Last year, Robinson’s BBC pay rose by at least £135k

Brexit has likely done more economic damage than feared.

Recent evidence suggests the economic cost of Brexit may be approaching twice the 4% impact assumed by the OBR.

The Chancellor has signalled a shift in approach to EU trade, but the effect will depend on how far the govt goes on alignement.

5 minutes before Trump’s announcement:

* $1.5B notional worth of S&P500 (ES) futures are bought in a single clip.

* $192M notional of oil futures (CL) sold.

More than 4x-6x any other trade size during the market close.

Insiders profited from his lies in broad daylight!

The offence for which she was jailed falls under Section 19(1) of the Public Order Act 1986.

The PM at the time that law was passed - a certain Margaret Thatcher

[Socialist Opera Singer @OperaSocialist]

Is Farage so spineless that he won't sack his Deputy Leader who dodged £600k in tax?

Meet the multimillionaire and billionaire elites funding a party full of privately educated multimillionaire elites who masquerade as anti-elites.

It's a Big Club, and you ain’t in it. 🤑

Sorry to rich Brits in Dubai, but we are full and our public services are at breaking point. Or so many of you told us.
