Contemplating the madness that is the world we live in... @[email protected]

For reasons possibly only known to that Elon bloke, I am unable to “Reply” to any Tweets (including my own!).

So my only option is to QT any replies.

It MAY be that this is because I have refused to update my Twitter app to X.

Maybe it is gradually dying in the background.

Just a suggestion - how about agreeing to be interviewed on #Newsnight and answering some questions directly???

No??
Thought not…

[Nigel Farage MP @Nigel_Farage]

My legal team have written to the BBC demanding a full on air apology and investigation into the defamatory comments made about me on Newsnight.

Enough is enough.

Hi @Nigel_Farage, now you’ve decided to do media again, tell us about the £5m.

[InsertNameHere @andykeatingis]

Not forgetting the genius of putting a border WITHIN the UK - between GB & NI.

Somebody made a few bob out of that!!

[Tradeandtillage @tradeandtillage]

@vivamjm @ShankerASingham Exactly this ⬆️. 👏🏻

The damage people like Singham have done to the 🇬🇧 economy is unforgivable (whilst enriching themselves personally).

A sensible honest read ⬇️

Are Nigel was probably busy handing his devices over to the security services so that they can investigate the Russian hack he was shouting about the other day…

No???????

Nigel Farage couldn’t make the much needed Commons debate on Henry Nowak today…

But he did find time for a video address that nobody asked for and 5 follow up tweets.

Still, I am sure there is a democratic process for electing a new leader…

[The Receipts UK ♿ @david_hollas]

Hat tip to @Chriscript for reminding us that Reform UK has a Branch Handbook. It's supposed to demonstrate that 268,000 paying members have a genuine democratic voice in the party they fund at £25 a year. Let's look at what it actually says.

The stated purpose of a branch is to campaign and win elections, raise funds for the party, sign up new members, and promote the party's values. That is the entire stated purpose. There is no policy input. There is no upward democratic mandate. Branches exist as a fundraising and campaigning vehicle, and nothing else.

Branch Officers are elected by members. That sounds democratic. Then you read Rule 4.13. National Managers can remove any elected Branch Officer "at their sole discretion for any reason they consider pertinent." Your vote means precisely nothing if HQ decides otherwise.

Rule 6.8 goes further. National Managers may attend any branch meeting and assume the position of Chair "at their sole discretion." The person your branch elected as Chair can be displaced on a whim, at any time, by someone appointed not by you but by the Board.

Think you can at least call a meeting to push back? Rule 6.16 says an EGM can be proposed by one member and seconded by five others. It can also be annulled by a National Manager if they deem it "frivolous or unnecessary." Members cannot convene without central approval.
The finances tell the same story. Rule 7.4 is unambiguous: "All funds held within the party belong to Reform HQ." Every pound raised at a local level belongs to the centre the moment it is collected. Rule 7.6 allows branches to access their own money back via a party debit card, after a 10% deduction to cover what the document describes as "national running costs." You raise it. They take a cut. They decide how much you get back.

If a branch is disbanded, Rule 13.5 confirms that all branch assets are reallocated to Reform HQ. There is no mechanism for members to recover anything.

This is not a political party in any constitutional sense. It is a company controlled by two directors whose members have no enforceable rights, whose elected officers serve at the pleasure of centrally appointed managers, and whose money belongs to headquarters the moment it arrives. The Branch Handbook does not contradict that analysis. It confirms it.

268,000 people are paying £25 a year for a debit card they don't control, officers who can be removed without their consent, and meetings that can be cancelled if Reform HQ considers them inconvenient.
That is what they are buying.

No - but on standby for a staged, fake assassination attempt grift…

[Socialist Opera Singer @OperaSocialist]

As Farage just copies everything Trump does, he'd probably try to rename the Royal Albert Hall as the Royal Nigel Hall.

Any other suggestions for narcissistic building renames?

As misleading headlines go, that has to be up there with some of the worst!

As is the claim that "Immigration is fuelling mass unemployment among under-25s."

The "shocking new study" does NOT show that at all 🙄

More and more people who want real change are recognising that they will only get it by supporting Reform.

Who’s attending the English Riviera Airshow in Torbay? Come and meet members of the Blues - the Red Arrows’ support team - today and tomorrow. Looking to the skies, display times for the Red Arrows are 1845 this evening and 1200 on Saturday.
