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.
“Even the apartheid regime in South Africa did not dare to say that if a black man kills a white man, he will be executed. But if a white man kills a black man, he will not be. What Israel did…it is exactly that saying that a Palestinian could be sentenced to death penalty, but an Israeli no for the same crime.” -@MustafaBarghou1 on Israel’s new death penalty law.
@SuellaBraverman Suella Braverman was Attorney General when the Conservative Party “cancelled” 247 local elections in 2021.
These Reform UK MPs are hypocrites.
The UK does not have a welfare problem.
It's got a corrupt politician and corrupt political elite problem.
It's got a billionaire problem.
Tax the reach.
Dear 🇬🇧,
Here’s your reminder that a decade ago, before the NHS was intentionally gutted by the Tories, the UK health service was ranked #1 in the world. Do not let @Nigel_Farage con you into believing otherwise. It’s time to end privatisation and reinvest in the NHS.

Just like every other Farage promise.
Campaign on “lower taxes” and “sticking it to the establishment” 👉then, once in power, hit ordinary residents with a 10% tax rise to fill the holes Brexit and mismanagement created.
Populism on the way in.
Austerity for everyone else once elected.
@BBCr4today A director of a services company who didn't bother to keep track of what her state pension age was! Why should younger workers with later state pension ages & far worse employment pensions pay for her compo? Why is every person presented by WASPI so undeserving of any sympathy?
🚨The hidden #Brexit tax and how it’s been silently draining British wallets since 2016.
Most people blame #costoflivingcrisis on the pandemic or #UkraineWar but buried in official reports is another truth: Brexit has made trade 15% smaller and productivity 4% lower.
Every customs declaration, every veterinary certificate, every hour of border delay adds costs to food.
🇬🇧 The cost of Brexit isn’t just political, it’s on your plate, in your fridge, and in your family’s weekly shop.

“I’d hope people would be wiser than that, but obviously I am 𝙙𝙚𝙡𝙪𝙙𝙚𝙙.”
JD Vance told people to “grow up” after racist messages were leaked from a Republican group chat - defending them as “just kids,” despite reports many are in their 20s and 30s.

@drmamoun01@ShaunLintern@NHSEngland It's based on continuous service with the NHS, not just the ICB as an org. The agenda for change T&C's stipulates 1 month's pay for each full year (24m max, with ceilings for salary), for those with at least 2 years of service
Since Boris Johnson came to power, there were 142 Tory U-turns.
In one case, 3 in one day.
I listed and documented them on a thread which ran from Dec 2019 to June last year.
On each of them, #BBC’s Mason declined to ever use the word ‘U-turn’.
@LauraPAuthor The worst bit. But you just know that some readers will delight in telling you that you had two Wednesdays in one week and a pregnancy that lasted 13 months.
