Cllr Jason Zadrozny, Ashfield District Council’s leader, arriving at Northampton Crown Court this morning.
I asked him if he had any statement as his trial begins, to which he said: “Oliver, you know better than that.”
Cllr Zadrozny is accused of income tax evasion and fraud.
To all Reform supporters,
You DO NOT get PIP for anxiety.
You DO NOT get PIP for ADHD.
You DO NOT get PIP for <Schizophrenia, Autism, being in a wheelchair>.
You get PIP for how a disability impacts you.
Hope this helps to stop you spouting hate filled nonsense in the future.
In light of recent news outlets banging on about that the reform party are going to reform PIP… Can we just make it clear that pip isn’t an out of work benefit? Many thanks.
@DawnButlerBrent@guardian It's almost ten years since betting shops regularly clustered on the high street. From a peak of 16,000 there are now just over 5,000 betting shops in this country. For ten years an average of 120 have closed a year but in 2026 it's around 400. New shops opening is massively rare
There are just eight betting shops in each parliamentary constituency now. They provide heavily regulated and legal entertainment to adults who enjoy them plus they employ around 15,000 people. I'm not sure why you equate them to vape shops. Fast food joints do way more damage.
