Hi @drdavidbull, can you tell us what's happened to Councillor David Bowker? The one in the photo with you. He's not posted on his Facebook since 14th May, and only attended 1 meeting at Wigan Council.
You might remember him, he's the guy who owed HMRC over £250,000 through failed firms: https://t.co/EmMqmDP9kd
Reform UK in Wigan seem to have a collection of unfit councillors.
The media camped outside Jeremy Corbyn’s family home for years.
Breakfast telly was littered with clips of the media stalking him and his wife while they went about their business.
I didn’t hear a peep from Nigel Farage defending him. Now he’s whining when a journo quizzes him.
Farage said his car brakes had been tampered with - didn't happen
His house was firebombed - didn't happen
Parliament security told him not to hold surgeries - didn't happen
His phone was hacked - didn't happen
Etc, etc....
Nigel Farage: "I'm going to ignore the wishes of Henry Nowak's family and extract every ounce of political capital from their son's death".
Nigel Farage: "Leave my family alone"
Nigel Farage’s decision to stand down, forcing a byelection, does *not* mean he’ll escape the standards investigation into his £5m gift from crypto-billionaire.
Under parliamentary rules, it is just suspended and then picked up again if/ when MP is re-elected - and even if they aren’t the commissioner can continue if he feels it’s appropriate.
If he’s then found to have breached the rules, and suspended from HoC for at least 10 sitting days, there could be a *second* byelection in Clacton.
Iran couldn’t get visas. They didn’t intervene.
A Somalian referee couldn’t get a visa. They didn’t intervene.
Fans of Muslim countries couldn’t get a visa. They didn’t intervene.
Ronaldo got a red card. Intervened.
USA player got a red card. Intervened.
F*** FIFA. Corrupt.
Bei aller Liebe, aber diese WM ist doch zu Ende. In dem Moment, wo ein Staatschef auf den ausführenden Verband eines Turniers einwirkt, um rote Karten rückgängig zu machen, ist das Spiel doch einfach im Eimer. Trump zerstört alles, was er berührt …
🚨 NEW: Nigel Farage’s convicted criminal ally George Cottrell handed out business cards with Farage’s email address despite having no official role in Reform UK
It contradicts Robert Jenrick's claim that Cottrell is a simply a personal friend of Farage

@darrengrimes So not the retired then?
& not the disabled?
Good to know!
Btw your leader doesn’t agree with equal marriage and some of your Cllrs call #LGBT+ people deviants just for being gay.
How can you associate yourself with those kind of people?
Private firms providing services to the NHS made £1.6 billion profit in two years.
That’s £1.6 billion being extracted from the NHS for shareholders rather than patients.
We think the NHS should be about people, not profit.
But what do you think?

A multimillion £ "gift" is nobody's business, yet a pair of spectacles are "on the take" and are of national interest.
The king of hypocrisy "do as I say, not as I do"
Michael Crick: "4 people in Farage's career have gone to jail for acts of dishonesty... what kind of world does Farage live in... cryptocurrency is great if you're a drug dealer or people trafficker... it's an absolute boon to the world's criminals... the whole thing stinks"
Here I am in happier times with best buds Nathan Gill, now in jail for taking Russian bribes and George Cottrell, who went to prison for fraud then paid for my staff, security and social media and let me stay in his house near Buckingham Palace.
According to Companies House Nigel Farage become Director and Owner in 2019 with 53 % of Shares #ReformUK
He didn't relinquish his ownership until FEBRUARY 2025 and remained director
SO how DARE Farage and #reformparty_uk say he was not involved in "politics"
Its a LOAD OF OLD RUBBISH !!!
Rachel Reeves took concert tickets. Keir Starmer accepted free glasses. The outrage was deafening.
Now there are questions over Nigel Farage’s alleged £5m benefit and George Cottrell. Funny how so many of the self appointed anti-corruption crowd have suddenly lost their voices.
