Steve Wright, Fire Brigades Union, criticises Reform UK,
"You've got Nigel Farage acting like he's the voice of the working class"
"He's admitted to taking a £5,000,000 donation"
"Richard Tice said he would attack our pensions, he would come for public sector pay, they would not invest in public services"
"The only people who would benefit would be the billionaire class"
"And it's quite rich of Danny Kruger to say that a Reform government would be able to fix the crisis that we see now"
"None of them are talking about the cost of living crisis, about public services that have been decimated after 14 years of austerity"
"None of them are talking about inequality that exists"
"That's why people have gone out and voted the way they do because Keir Starmer has no delivered on that"
8 lines every flag-shagging plastic “patriot” has in their playbook
1.“I want my country back” - From what? You voted for the party that ran it for 14 years.
2.“Our grandads didn’t fight for this” - Your grandads would be ashamed that you can’t find Normandy on a map. They fought with Poles, Sikhs, Gurkhas, and West Indians beside them. They’d have more in common with the immigrants you hate than plastic patriots sharing memes about them.
3.“This isn’t the Britain I grew up in” - Correct. It has lower crime, longer life expectancy, and better healthcare than the 1970s you’re romanticising. You just don’t remember the power cuts and three-day weeks.
4.“Britain is broken” - The most unpatriotic sentence in the English language, repeated daily by people say they love their country.
5. “We’re full” - The Netherlands has twice the population density and somehow manages. The UK is not full. It’s just had 14 years of no housebuilding and you need someone darker than you to blame for it.
6.“We look after our own first” - You vote for parties that cut disability benefits, froze nurses’ pay, gave tax breaks to the rich and closed Sure Start centres. You don’t look after anyone.
7.“Stop the boats” - The Tories spent £700 million on Rwanda to deport four people. Zero boats were stopped. You cheered anyway.
8.“Starmer is a traitor” - The man prosecuted terrorists, paedophile rings, and war criminals as DPP. You import American culture war propaganda from people who openly despise our allies, trash your own country 24/7, and follow convicted fraudsters who lied about where they were born. The only ones treacherously trashing Britain’s reputation daily are you.
@DarwinEscapes @Hoseasons disappointed with the quality of the accommodation @piran meadows. We have stayed here before and really look forward to the facilities at the resort, but we found multiple issues with the hot tub, the oven ,damage to the furniture, poor conditions
@RTYJBBB just wanted to thank you for taking the time to send out this message for my son, he will be absolutely blown away. Hopefully get to see you after the game with 3 points in the bag

@airasia appreciate there isn’t much you can do about my flight cancellation, but the options to rebook my flights for my family have been extremely poor and are causing me a lot of expense and really upsetting what should be a once in a lifetime trip. Comms have been poor
@AVA_airasia not happy about the cancellation of our KUL to Krabi flight and the options available to re book are very limited especially when there are valid alternatives being sold on the website. Contacted Bo and customer services and received no reply
King Charles charges this RNLI lifeboat station to launch its boat because he owns the beach. And they’re not the only charity he’s rinsing
