The lie, Russia is going to invade. The truth, billionaires have bought your Energy, Water and Healthcare. And if you are lucky you are going to die in a corridor in the middle of sweltering heatwave in a hospital with no AC. Because all YOUR money was given to bomb makers.

Under a mechanism known as the Dublin Convention, the British government could previously ask fellow EU nations to take people back if they had passed through safe countries en route to the UK -that ended with Brexit & no alternative was agreed making it far more difficult to return any new arrivals

Nigel Farage is posting “We now have 200,000 reasons Reform should be in government” The 200,000 illegal migrants figure Farage is using is over several years and let’s remind ourselves how we got into this mess in the first place - BREXIT youtu.be/A6fCl-uOEVY?...

Nigel Farage, has proposed a mass deportation plan called "Operation Restoring Justice," which includes creating a "UK Deportation Command" modelled on the U.S. ICE. Don't vote Reform unless you want innocent blood on UK streets like we see in the USA.

.@pabloreports.bsky.social : What do you make of this union worker who called out Trump as a pedophile protector? Ryan: He's a fucking American hero.

2017 tweet from Leave.EU thanking Putin for carpet bombing Syria which displaced 14 million & led directly to the refugee/boat crisis.

Farage is lying about the ECHR. He says it’s letting immigrants in, but the numbers don’t match. He’s not trying to fix immigration, he’s trying to scrap the law that stops the government from legally stripping your fundamental rights.

Regarding the ECHR, Adolf Hitler suspended the law in 1933 so he could deal with the communists, then the Disabled People, then the Jews and the Roma... Long story short millions of people died, and nobody got their rights back until after Hitler was dead.

Schrödinger’s Britain.. Both bursting at the seams with brown people, yet somehow “overrepresented” in ads Make your minds up, Reform! We dissect this, the Caerphilly wake-up call, Starmer’s dodgy response & why we’re no longer P..P..picking up Penguins. 🎧 New ep below!

Of course the real threat isn't Asylum Seekers in Dinghies. It is the people who want to leave the ECHR and take away all your Rights. Right to trial, right to healthcare, right to sick pay, right to holiday pay, right not be discriminated against. They can make so much profit

Reform UK are pledging to change the law so MP's don't have to obey International Law. Only the UK Laws which they are planning to completely rewrite. If you are wondering what this is, we call it fascism.

Can someone ask Farage or Zia Yusuf why, if they're so concerned about incitement to violence, they had Lucy Connolly as a guest star at their conference?

It's very simple. The people costing all the money, are the people with all the money. Not the people with hardly any money. It really shouldn't need explaining.

Nigel Farage wants to end sick pay, he wants to destroy the unions, he wants to get rid of the State Pension, he wants US style Healthcare. The only person he will benefit is billionaires.

When they fired checkout staff, supermarket prices didn't go down When they fired meter readers, energy prices didn't go down When they cut benefits/pensions your Public Services don't get more money They only cut things to feed the profits and cut the taxes of the richest

With UK news shows reporting more than 50,000 small boat migrants have crossed the English Channel since Labour came to power now would be a good time to remind Nigel Farage & others that Brexit has been a primary factor in the sky rocketing number of small boat crossings youtu.be/cKXFjbxSBBI?...

The governing party of the United States is shutting down the federal government to cover-up evidence the president sexually abused children so he can continue trying to implement dictatorship. That's just a true statement about the world!

Riddle me this. Why do people object to foreigners coming over and 'invading' the UK,but at the same time, its OK for the Israelis, literally all foreigners,moving into Palestine, to take over their land. Surely Farage and Co should be against this sort of behaviour. Native land for the natives only

Can anyone tell me why we pursue such things as extra terrestrial intelligence? If we won't let migrants into the country,why are we trying to contact aliens? Surely it would make the situation worse. As Nigel Farage says, we are at breaking point as it is. NASA must be stopped.

BBC's News & Current Affairs CEO gave "a presentation on plans to address low trust issues with Reform voters... Directors discussed how story selection & other types of output, such as drama, also had a role to play" The media is part of the story. Byline Times scoop by @adambienkov.bsky.social 👇

“They (Reform UK) voted against •stronger SSP • the right to guaranteed hours • protection from unfair dismissal • stronger protections for pregnant mothers • a package worth £600 for poorest workers.. We’re backing British workers, they vote against them at every turn” PM Keir Starmer #PMQS 👏

Like, I've been to 36 countries and lived in 6 on 4 continents. I've met "patriots" in every one of them. The more places I visit, the more I realize, there are good people and shitty people. Why can't I just be a humanitarian and not a "patriot?" Patriot seems so superficial.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are attacking basic human rights in the US, and they’re trying to export their bigotry over here. We can’t let them poison our institutions. It’s time to fight back 👇 goodlawproject.org/crowdfunder/...

Nigel Farage has told ITV News the first thing he would do as prime minister if he won a general election would be to remove the UK from the European Convention on Human Rights That alone is good reason never to vote for Reform UK. THIS IS WHY youtu.be/MdiDDJrQUJA?...

2025: Nigel Farage, "We've never ever ever suggested anything other than the NHS should be free" 2012: Nigel Farage, "We need to think about healthcare very very differently. We're going to have to move to an insurance based system of healthcare" And don't forget he got it wrong on Brexit too
