Another Reform local council goes bust.
If it didn't have such a direct effect on so many lives, it'd be funny.

@Obscure_Rebel @thecanaryuk @thecanary @uk_politics @UKLabour @thegreenparty 🤣 Not Going To Happen. #Labour can withdraw their candidate, or face utter humiliation at the polls. Interesting that they didn’t ask #Reform to withdraw their candidate…. Current Labour policies are much closer to those of Reform than those of the #GreenParty

#Reform will face a police investigation in Gorton and Denton after admitting it sent out letters from a “concerned neighbour” which did not state they had been funded and distributed by the party.
Manchester police confirmed it had received a report about the breach of electoral law and said it would investigate. The Electoral Commission said the omission was a matter for the police, stressing that failing “to include an imprint in candidate election material is an offence”
FUCK UP !
For our upcoming #elections ( #Scotland) please be very aware of the potential #fakes, #frauds, #charlatans, #lies ( #misinformation/ #disinformation) especially from the rightwing supporting #techbro 'services'. The full might of #unionist and #Reform will be using #LLMs (so called #AI) to generate this. Fact check everything!

So #Reform want to cut the price of a pint by 5p. Laudable, you might think, but wait til you hear how they'll pay for this. They plan to fully fund this promise by reinstating the two-child benefit cap. This gives an insight into the minds of Farage's heartless Party, & the lengths they will go to if they think there's a few votes in it. This heartless policy would be paid for by returning 450K children to poverty. Reform have already demonstrated their heartlessness by their treatment of care home residents, now they propose to increase inequality in an already inequitable & cruel society. Shame on them!! #RejoinEU
Jake Broe’s dire warning to #europe
If we elect far-right parties like #NationalFront in France, #Reform in the UK, #AfD in Germany, there’s a good chance they will emulate what Trump has done and go ahead and claim the #elections where they get voted out as fraudulent.
These parties are tied to both #MAGA & Russian oligarch funding, and also would have no problem of requesting military support from USA to help them overthrow any election result they don’t like!
It’s only a single council by-election, but Tuesday’s Green gain from Reform feels symbolic — the Greens received 44% of the vote, Reform 35%, and the traditional parties only 19% between them: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y2j42dgy5o

Tip for @randahl #greens take seat instead of #reform Also the #UK is in danger of falling to extreme right, but there is an alternative.

“Always keen for a rebrand, Nigel #farage could try Conform as his next incarnation, since 14 members of the former #Conservative government have now tied their flag to the #Reform UK mast.
#Conform is also apt since it is very much an establishment party conforming to a harsh free market ideology, with its belief in a low-wage, low-tax, low-regulation economy and pushing austerity, privatisation and cuts to the public sector and welfare.”
