Meanwhile ReformUK's fantasy budgetary promises for local councils have met the reality of deficits & over-spends.
It seems at lest four of the ten ReformUK led local authorities are aiming to raise council tax by the maximum allowed, despite pledging to reduce taxes.
The Q. is whether Reform voters care or they actually have other reasons for voting for the Far Right?

Please keep these to yourselves, it would be a terrible shame if they became public knowledge.
I was curious about what was actually in the #ReformUK manifesto. Glad I looked:
✅ "Cancel our membership of the WHO"
✅ "Leave the European Convention on Human Rights"
✅ "The Equalities Act requires discrimination"
✅ "Stop Sharia law being used in the UK"
✅ "All job seekers must find employment within 4 months. Otherwise, benefits are withdrawn."
✅ "Legislate to stop left-wing bias"
✅ Scrap the TV license (68% of BBC funding)
And much more like this.
English reactionaries rather like racism, but hate cruelty to animals.
#NigelFarage learnt the hard way when he denounced #TheNewHuntingBan. His chums in #TheDailyMail gave Farage a slot to rage against the proposed ban on #trailhunts. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15415269/Farage-vows-fight-Keir-Starmers-stop-trail-hunting.html
Oops! Every top-voted comment in the #DailyMail backed the ban. Many say #ReformUK would lose their vote based on #Farage’s promise to overturn it.
Opinion polls say the same. #FoxHunting is hated.
Una lista di personaggi politici, partiti e centri studi con i quali Trump sta portando l'agenda politica della sua amministrazione in Europa e tentando di spostare l'asse politico del continente verso l'estrema destra.
Chissà cosa ne dice quel profeta che prima delle elezioni statunitensi sentenziava sicuro «a noi europei conviene Trump eh»?

Despite rumours that ReformUK might be willing to enter some sort of electoral pact with the Tories ahead of the next election, Nigel Farage rejected this idea, suggesting that only a 'reverse tax-over' of the Tories is of any interest to him.
Normally I wouldn't comment on Fararge's fantasy politics, but in this case it perhaps confirms what many suspect; that a badly weakened Tory party may be prey to a stronger populist right challenger.
Time & events will tell.
Meanwhile at The Nation.Cymru Nigel Farage Barrister friend has been trying to shut down a story with some legal threats... the response from N.C - just go away!
(oh yes & they also detailed why the threat had no legal basis).
Sometimes the way to deal with bullies is just to tell them to F*ck Off!

The Guardian has published detailed analysis of a poll of 11,000 ReformUK supporters to find out who exactly is supporting the party.
There's lots of interesting stuff here including some detail on the internal party coalition that lies behind the Party's popularity; which in itself offers some evidence the party may be less stable than critics suppose; this coalition seem likely to be unsustainable in the face of actual policy commitments?

Ross Lambie, a South Lanarkshire bigot and misinformation promoter as well as being a #ReformUK member, is misleading the thick bigots who elected him - surprise, surprise!
I hope he gets what he deserves. Sick, thick and a total Di(k.
Mi pare che questa notizia sia girata poco, merita più attenzione.
L'ex leader di Reform UK in Galles Nathan Gill si è dichiarato colpevole di corruzione in relazione a dichiarazioni a favore della Russia rese al Parlamento europeo.
Secondo quanto riferito alla corte, era stato incaricato dal giornalista ucraino filoputiniano Oleg Voloshyn in almeno otto occasioni di rilasciare dichiarazioni specifiche in cambio di denaro.

Le #Labour au pouvoir tient sa conférence annuelle dans la ville portuaire de Liverpool. Jamais la lutte contre l’#ExtrêmeDroite, incarnée par le parti #ReformUK de Nigel Farage, n’avait été autant au cœur de ce rendez-vous.
