Reform UK has formed its own DOGE unit. Is this the solution to wasteful spending?

Come along to our June meeting & put your questions & points to @Elksy91 of @the_tpa

10 June at the Telegraph. See you there? 👇

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Reform’s UK DOGE has been formed.

It’s a team of world class software engineers, data analysts and forensic auditors, working for free.

They’ll identify and help eliminate wasteful spending

They arrive at Kent Council tomorrow, and we respectfully make the following request:

[Claire Fox @Fox_Claire]

Well done @jacobreynolds. Attempts to shut down discussion about how Hamas has been funded under the guise of humanitarianism, by cries of FAKE NEWS (and repeating the word starvation), already shows disingenuous defensiveness. And for those looking for evidence, start here: https://t.co/V1m471fQN9.

[Jacob Reynolds @jacobreynolds]

@euronews @CEPS_thinktank @kvanbrempt Despite the attempt to shut down as fake news, here are the receipts.

And as a bonus here’s a revelation of EU aid linked to Hamas rockets

How dare they abuse their power as educators in this way? "The National Education Union (NEU) is holding a workshop next month to train members in how to “advocate for Palestine in our schools”."

Why has the 'long arm of the law' been replaced by the 'long arm of Stonewall'?

Why should a football club get to decide what fans can and can't say outside the stadium?

Here is the write-up of our excellent evening with @RightNUFC and @Kyriakos_Law ⚽️👮‍♂️

Very interesting piece from @PiPsorgNE regular @Kyriakos_Law 👇

The Sentencing Council’s Two-Tier Guidelines Failed to Treat People as Individuals.

[Academics For Academic Freedom @AFAF_freespeech]

As a condition of registration all HEIs must uphold free speech and academic freedom. They should have been - and some have- ensuring they did not adopt policies that undermine this duty and would not need to ‘fear’ fines. @StudentAFAF

[Don't Divide Us @DontDivideUsNow]

So West Yorkshire Police want to offer 'men of gold' ethnic minorities more time to apply for jobs than 'men of bronze' . In Wales the govt. want to offer ethnic minority student teachers more money than non-ethnic minority students. This is Plato's 'Noble Lie' , aka Positive Action, aka racial discrimination in law: https://t.co/DSbtqH33wM

[The Free Speech Union @SpeechUnion]

🍻 Say no to banter bouncers! Clause 20 of the Employment Rights Bill could make landlords liable for overheard pub chat if a staff member claims ‘harassment’. Britain doesn’t need East German speech policing.

✍️ Write to a peer and help scrap Clause 20:

The establishment is composed of individuals who are risk-averse & responsibility averse... outsourcing decisions to an army of consultants, NGOs & international institutions, they lack the leadership necessary to take advantage of the current moment

A bit like the 3rd reading of the bill itself, our discussion on #AssistedDying had been postponed ...

BUT now we're back on with a new date at the Telegraph & with intro by @historykev 👏

All welcome - come along, have your say & enjoy a pint 🍻

[Newcastle Politics in Pubs @PiPsorgNE]

@BigAlNorthEast Next one will be 13th May returning to the topic of Assisted Dying & what's happening in Parliament. Telegraph pub.

[Newcastle Politics in Pubs @PiPsorgNE]

👀Why was Newcastle United fan Linzi Smith banned for 'wrongthink’ & spied upon for months? 👀

Come along and hear her story over a few drinks 🍻

FREE but ticketed (see link below)

[Student Academics For Academic Freedom @StudentAFAF]

This is a more common occurrence than many would imagine outside academia, nefarious 'disciplinary actions' on dubious or unelaborated grounds.

Anyone staff on the receiving end should contact and join @AFAF_freespeech about their situation, and @StudentAFAF for students.

[Linzi 🖤🤍 @RightNUFC]

Sorry to disappoint all of the trolls and weirdo’s who tried to block book this event, then were stupid enough to brag about it on social media.

But the event was a sell out and success!!! 😈🤣

Thank you to everyone who came, and thank you for the invite, it was a true honour! ❤️ @PiPsorgNE
