@CraigLiddell7 This is a parody, surely?

No one in their right mind would seriously claim the Tories have a credible economic track record over the past 10 years…

[Julian @banjoluck]

@RedLipRiots Nice try.

Farage celebrated Gills success, hardly a footnote. The party appointed him to a senior leadership position.

Either they knew he was previously on the take and it wasn’t a concern, or they failed to look into his past dealings.

Regardless, ignorance is no excuse.

@pritipatel At least we’re aware of where he’s jetting off to - as opposed to secret meetings with foreign governments sharing unsanctioned information.

Short memories some folks have….

[Julian @banjoluck]

@drdavidbull Or appoint senior leaders who are willing to accept bribes from dictatorships.

Or platform Covid deniers and convicted criminals…

You referring to that Reform party?…

[Julian @banjoluck]

@LeeAndersonMP_ One way of avoiding debt is to be paid by foreign governments to parrot their political views. There’s good money in it, but it doesn’t run the risk of a custodial sentence and all your former mates immediately distancing themselves from you….

[Julian @banjoluck]

@Neccccy Nathan Gill being sentenced and for some strange, unrelated reason absolutely no comment from Farage or Tice…

[Julian @banjoluck]

@LeeAndersonMP_ @reformparty_uk @ShabanaMahmood What’s the difference between parroting pro-Russia propaganda and accepting bribes for the same - about 10 years it seems….

[Julian @banjoluck]

@Neccccy A man that not only appointed but celebrated Nathan Gill isn’t fit to run a bath, let alone an economy…

[Julian @banjoluck]

@lewis_goodall Does this warrant a discussion around Reform’s integrity? Surely some sort of enquiry.

[Julian @banjoluck]

@ClarksonsFarm1 Micheal Gove. So he can explain why when he was SoS for rural affairs he assured us that Brexit would in no way adversely impact British farming.

[Julian @banjoluck]

@AvonandsomerRob What an odd post.

Factually misleading.

But you know that….

[Julian @banjoluck]

@implausibleblog MP’s salaries have increased by 25% over the last 10 years. Small beans I’ll agree in terms of GDP, but please spare me the neo-liberal hypocrisy.

[Julian @banjoluck]

@RupertLowe10 By ‘put their faith’ do you mean ‘put their money’ into a limited company? Let’s not conflate faith with a snake oil salesman’s grift that has seen him take the electorate for mugs, again.

[Julian @banjoluck]

@supertanskiii Respectfully, it’s a failure of many things, and singling out Fathers as the ultimate reason for the rise of far right ideology in young men is wrong. Parenting (maternal and paternal), social dynamics, educational engagement are just some of the contributing elements.

[Julian @banjoluck]

@Otto_English Lots of soul searching going on at Reform HQ tonight���

[Julian @banjoluck]

@msch0074 @Claire33Claire @wongthink @vsevolod4 @TRobinsonNewEra To the best of my knowledge if a defendant pleads guilty they are doing so to the judge, at which point a jury is not required and the case moves to sentencing.

If the defendant pleads innocence then a jury of their peers is invoked to review the arguments and reach a decision

[Julian @banjoluck]

@Claire33Claire @wongthink @vsevolod4 @TRobinsonNewEra He pleaded guilty.

If he (and his legal team) thought they could argue his innocence then they would have, but they didn’t.

[Julian @banjoluck]

@wongthink @vsevolod4 @TRobinsonNewEra and with that statement, all (admittedly little to start with) credibility evaporates…

[Julian @banjoluck]

@Nigel_Farage So more people have signed up to pay £25 a year to your limited company membership scheme.

Is an increased revenue stream and annual recurring revenue, is this a condition that Musk is placing on you to secure his $100M donation?

Yet another grift…

[Julian @banjoluck]

@GayTory @Nigel_Farage Why don’t you democratise the party, sell shares, make it a party owned by the people for the people?

You won’t. You’ll want to keep your controlling stock (9 out of 15 shares)

Be honest. It’s a money spinner. You’re desperate for Musk’s $$$.

It’s not political. It’s a grift
