The media are desperate to pretend that Farage isnโ€™t the establishment, so iโ€™ve written an article explaining why he is. Can we get it shared 1000 times?? Thanks ๐Ÿ™

Tattered dirty flags hanging like limp rags from lamp posts symbolise Nigel Farage and Reformโ€™s decline during a long, hot summer of discontent on the Hard and Far Right. mirror.co.uk/news/politics/rโ€ฆ

Why do Lefties despise the Right? Well it started with Thatcher & then the Miner's strike, destroying UK industry, Privatisation, Grenfell, Windrush, #Brexit, the NHS, expenses scandals, tax evasion, corruption, Covid deaths, countless fraud & 50yrs of lies upon lies. That's why.

DWP PIP claimants are being tricked into voting Reform Some PIP claimants believed that Reform was only going after 'fraudsters'; now the party has made it clear they're going for everyone thecanary.co/trending/2026/0โ€ฆ thecanary.co/trending/2026/0โ€ฆ

The announcement that Reform would cut Personal Independence Payment to Disabled people, is not just a threat to remove a lifeline but a signal that they donโ€™t consider us to be equal citizens. Our response: disabilityrightsuk.org/news/โ€ฆ

To everyone saying Reform wonโ€™t target vulnerable people who need benefits: Reform led councils are already doing it. Wake up.
Look at this. A Reform led council forces Blue Badge holders to pay, then puts the meter behind a high kerb and a bin. โ™ฟ๏ธ๐Ÿšซ When told itโ€™s inaccessible, their answer is: 'Donโ€™t come into town then.' They're already showing you how they plan to treat disabled people.

Richard Ticeโ€™s constituency, Boston & Skegness, has over 10,000 people claiming PIP. That costs ยฃ79 million a year, while 21.6% of the working-age population is not in work. Nigel Farageโ€™s constituency, Clacton, has 10,442 people claiming PIP. That costs ยฃ77 million a year, while over 24% of the working-age population is not in work. Sarah Pochinโ€™s constituency, Runcorn & Helsby, has over 9,000 people claiming PIP. That costs ยฃ69 million a year, while over 19% of the working-age population is not in work. Lee Andersonโ€™s constituency, Ashfield, has around 9,058 people claiming PIP. That costs ยฃ69 million a year, while almost 20% of the working-age population is not in work. Robert Jenrickโ€™s constituency, Newark, has 6,011 people claiming PIP. That costs ยฃ46 million a year, while over 12% of the working-age population is not in work. Abolishing PIP and treating people who haven't worked for a year like criminals by making them do 20 hours of community service will hit Reform voting constituencies the hardest.

Disabled People are allowed to have nice things. Disabled People are allowed to have fun. Disabled People are allowed to have money to spend. Disabled People don't have to justify themselves.

Big win this for Labour in Greater Manchester, Reform and Farage again thrashed. The tide is turning against a Hard Right parry which recently hoped to win the Mayoralty. Farage beating a bin in Clacton is the best Reform will do this Summer. theguardian.com/politics/202โ€ฆ

Replying to @andyburnham
Hi Andy. The ongoing threat of welfare cuts has kept disabled people in a state of chronic, damaging anxiety for two years. I am seeing the severe psychological fallout and rising suicidal ideation this causes. We urgently need leadership that brings peace of mind, not fear.
