@donwinslow ...and the corruption. The funnelling of public money to his friends and family, the promotion of incompetents to run the DOJ, FBI and National Security.
Trump has created a swamp for the Tech Bros and MAGA sycophants.
Now is the time to clean the swamp.
The French Government have found hard evidence of election interference in France, Africa and even Scotlands elections
Not by Russia-
But by an Israeli based company called "Blackcore"
Heres the story.
Tesla doesn't recongise Trade Unions.
Apple doesn't recognise unions.
Amazon is anti-union.
McDonald's is anti-union.
Starbucks is anti-union.
Google is anti-union.
Walmart is anti-union.
These mega businesses are not on your side.
@RobertJenrick ....and who will organise this, supervise it, pay for their transport?
Another hair brained idea, like Sunak's National Service plan.
An utterly contemptable policy that doesn't stand up to scrutiny or financial sensibility.
Zia, you’re blanking the fact that a big slab of that £21bn goes to settled-status EU nationals who’ve lived, worked and paid tax here for years under the Withdrawal Agreement. They’re not freeloaders. Settled status already puts them through the habitual residence checks and they’ve got the contribution history to prove it. Screaming “insanity” while ignoring all that is pure red-meat bollocks for the already converted. You are clearly uninformed.
What's "plain immoral" is retrospectively taking away access to benefits from people we have promisd can spend the rest of their lives here. How dare you call these people "foreigners" - they have lived here for years and many have paid into the system
@RobertJenrick Foreign Nationals pay 8% of the total tax paid in their roles UK. So are you saying Doctors, Nurses, Carers and other workers will no longer have to pay tax and NI? How are you going to save this £50bn?
Rather than repeat myself again, I am going to write a single post as to why Reform's policy announcement today is utterly absurb and will cost Britain £3 billion a year.
Foreign nationals pay in approximately £24 billion in National Insurance each year, and cost the UK around £21 billion in related benefits.
If you want to stop them accessing the benefits National Insurance pays for, as proposed by Reform today, it would be an Article 14 Human Rights contravention to make them pay National Insurance, so they would need to be exempted.
So the UK would make a £3 billion net loss if it were to ever introduce Reform's ridiculous new policy.
@TiceRichard Calling imports an “electricity shortage” is nonsense Dickie.
Interconnectors are designed to let Britain buy cheaper power when it suits us, & sell power back when we have surplus.
In Q1, UK electricity exports actually rose 45% while net imports fell 21%.
@TiceRichard Weapons grade nonsense. If you genuinely think this you should never be an energy spokesperson for any politics party and if you don’t your lying with motive
We had 65% spare gas generation capacity available today with reactors down for maintenance
There was no shortage
More spending. No real plan. Remember Thatcher, who you and Farage supported, sold off the water companies having cleared their debt. It was the water companies responsibility to build reservoirs. They didn't but ran up £Bns in debt and handed out £Bns in dividends...ffs!!
There will be NO MORE hosepipe bans under Reform.
We only have them because we’ve been governed by fools.
Singapore is a small, crowded island with only tiny rivers to speak of.
It hasn’t rationed water since 1964.
Saudi Arabia and the UAE are deserts.
No hosepipe bans.
Britain, famous for rain, has had Tory and Labour governments who have not built a major reservoir in 34 years.
The population has grown by 10 million since they built a reservoir.
So they tell you to stop watering your garden.
Meanwhile housebuilding in Cambridgeshire is on hold because there isn’t enough water to connect the taps.
They are making us a third world country.
Reform will make reservoirs nationally significant infrastructure to unblock planning.
We will build reservoirs faster than any time in history.
We will fast-track and build desalination plants.
We will ensure a lack of water is NEVER a constraint in Britain. 🇬🇧
@ZiaYusufUK If U hadn't noticed Zia , all the Water Companies are PLCs since Maggie's Era.
So shouldn't the Responsibility fall with them to Build all these New Reservoirs not the Taxpayer.
Last I checked they'd paid out £65 Bn in dividends without even attempting to build a new Reservoir.
It was the Tories who privatised our water — you used to support the Tories, and most of your party is made up of Tories.
Updating our water network is a noble aim, but how are you going to pay for that? Also, it will take time, so if you don't implement measures to conserve water when needed, you will run out, and then we'll be rationed through standpipes. You really are an idiot!
Another uninformed disingenuous post by neanderthal Anderson. He conveniently forgets the Starmer Govt's funding for pot holes to local Govt and the fact that a significant % of 100k pot holes were filled in before Reform...
The Reform Way
Reform led Nottinghamshire County Council have now repaired 100,000 potholes.
Thousands more are scheduled to be filled in the current resurfacing program.
There has been a record breaking £257,000,000 invested into the roads since we were elected.
The largest road repair investment of any County Council in Britain.
Reform led Nottinghamshire County Council are leading the way to ensure the roads are fit for purpose for years to come.
Reform UK are making your roads safer with preventative works, along with essential works.
Reform UK in Nottinghamshire will continue to smash road repair records and we won't stop until the job is done.
We made a promise to fix our roads after decades of neglect and we are delivering on our promise.

@policylaila Was this an undeclared election expense? Who was invited? Was this payment for canvassing? Were constituents who voted for Reform invited?
