🚨 Astonishingly, the heads of the Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service’s (GMFRS) ‘race and faith’ network have sent an email to firefighters, targeting staff members standing as candidates for Reform UK.
The email stated these individuals were "spoken to" and that management is seeking "legal guidance" to protect their "inclusive culture."
Sending an anti-Reform UK political broadcast on public systems during a regulated election period is a shocking breach of electoral neutrality and is unlawful.
Firefighters have every legal right to stand for election.
Hounding staff for lawful political views is unacceptable and is proof of the exact perception that anyone questioning an aggressive DEI agenda will be chased out of their job.
I have written to Chief Fire Officer Dave Russel demanding answers.
Petch and Ahmed - the network heads responsible - appear to have committed gross misconduct and should be dismissed.
GMFRS must apologize to Reform UK and the affected staff.
We have given GMFRS until Wednesday to answer 8 specific demands, including providing transcripts of what was said to our candidates and explaining why these network heads are permitted to weaponize IT systems.
I am also calling on HMICFRS (@HMICFRS) and the Electoral Commission (@ElectoralCommUK) to urgently investigate this unlawful breach.

Minister @Jacqui_Smith1 is banging on about child safety on mobile phones📲 .
Never forget she was the Home Secretary when that notorious memo was sent out in 2008 stating girl grooming gang victims were consenting & little more than prostitutes.
Labour’s Lord Foulkes is asked here if he’s heard of the murdered mother Rhiannon Skye Whyte, killed by an illegal from the hotel she worked at. He hadn’t. He then attacks Michelle for criticising Labour. Men like Foulkes show how utterly contemptible and out of touch they are.
Very good point raised by @ZiaYusufUK
The culprits who attacked officers in Southampton have been sentenced one week later. One for 2 years & 4 months.
When BLM activists threw the Colston statue in the river. Nobody went to prison.
This is two-tier justice we’re angry about.
Conservative peer Lord Ranger is suing Sir Keir Starmer in a free speech row after his CBE was revoked over comments made on social media.
Lord Ranger, a Tory peer and successful businessman, was awarded the CBE for services to business and community cohesion. He says he is the victim of “cancel culture”.
His lawyers will argue that the decision to revoke his honour was disproportionate and will have a chilling effect on the right of public figures to speak out on controversial issues.
The Free Speech Union has said “ruthlessly stripping” Lord Ranger of his honour over “perfectly lawful” comments is “beyond the pale”.
Lord Ranger’s lawyers say the case will test the Government’s legal right to “cancel” an individual rather than protect free speech.
The decision is said to have left Lord Ranger deeply embarrassed and distressed.
The Forfeiture Committee — a shadowy body in Whitehall — was responsible for the decision. The FSU has cited the committee’s activities in its opposition to the Government’s Removal of Peerages Bill, which could be used to hound peers out of Parliament over a slip of the tongue or a social media post, as well as to silence political opponents who do not subscribe to prevailing orthodoxies.
Lord Young of Acton said he was alarmed by the decision to strip Lord Ranger of his honour.
He said: “This shadowy committee, deep in the recesses of Whitehall, has become an enforcer of establishment orthodoxy, ruthlessly stripping people of their honours for expressing perfectly lawful views that it regards as beyond the pale.
“The reason this has such a chilling effect on free speech is that being denuded of an honour is far, far worse than not being given one in the first place. It’s deeply humiliating, with your dishonour being broadcast in the Gazette.
“If people knew that receiving an OBE or a CBE was accompanied by a muzzle, with the risk that if you stray outside the Overton window you could lose it, I doubt many people would accept them in the first place.”

I have formally referred South Wales Police to the equalities watchdog.
Their guidance amounts to a blasphemy law against Islam and has no basis in law.
We cannot put one religion on a pedestal above others.
We should all be equal before the law.
Potentially “explosive” messages showing Peter Mandelson lobbying Starmer’s chief of staff from Washington to make Peter Kyle business secretary – a job he duly got – have mysteriously disappeared from the latest Mandelson document dump, just as the Met widens its misconduct probe.
In two‑tier Britain, your emails are public property – theirs are “held back” for your own good.
The Bank of England DELIBERATELY FIXED the fake "public vote" to remove ALL historical figures from bank notes & replace them with nature images
Freedom of Information requests by the Telegraph reveal the decision to remove historical figures was based on a "focus group" of a mere 119 people
The Bank LIED because it previously claimed the decision was based on a "public vote".
In truth, however, even this vote was FIXED. Instead of having HISTORY v NATURE, the bank deliberately split the "history" category into 3 sections: historical events, historical figures, architecture & landmarks.
That was the only way that "nature" could win.
However, of course bank notes always combine at least two of those history categories. For example: Churchill & Parliament or Wellington & Waterloo.
The Bank's actions are indefensible and questions should be asked in the House.
The Bank of England has clearly been captured by progressive woke ideology. A visit to the Bank of England with its permanent exhibition on slavery makes that clear
This is part of the wider war on British history. It's an attempt to create a NEW BRITAIN, based on ridiculous myths that "Diversity Built Britain" and that Britain has always been multicultural.
Remember: the Bank of England issued a 50p coin (held aloft by Rishi Sunak) which was imprinted with the nonsensical statement: "Diversity Built Britain"
Anyone who lived behind the Iron Curtain will find all of this eerily and scarily familiar.
The pulling down of statues, the renaming of streets and schools, the rewriting of history, denigrating heroes, changing bank notes etc....these were all tactics of the communists.
Severing the connection between a people and their history is the best way to demoralise a society and prepare them for the imposition of new myths.

@cardiffwhale@Enochwasryght@UK_Needs_Reform Yeah cut benefits and PIP to the con artists, and considering we are approaching £3 trillion in debt plus all the off book debts it's needed
