Exclusive: No suspension for Reform councillor who shared post calling for female MP to be shot
Calls for Nigel Farage’s party to act after Lancashire councillor Simon Evans shares Facebook meme targeting grooming survivor Natalie Fleet.
Reform UK is refusing to suspend a councillor who reshared a post calling for a female Labour MP to be shot. Given the history of violence against MPs in the UK, calling this an “honest mistake” is indefensible. There can be no excuses.

Anyone saying ‘DEI’ here in the UK is telling you very directly where their hate is imported from.

Blair is completely wrong about the best way to persue net-zero emissions, but that doesn't really matter because all the Establishment wants to talk about is whether or not we should bother trying

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

These are issues arising from a decade of austerity, and simply blaming immigration simplifies our problems and offers no realistic answers. Reform UK are the party of billionaires and landlords, and they will always protect the elites over workers and communities.⬇️

🧵Reform UK is trying to convince voters ahead of the local elections that it is now “professional”. Farage has condemned union members who, he said, were “telling kids that Reform is a racist party”.
So we looked into some of Reform's candidates and here's what we found 👇

No matter how bad it gets, the anti-woke will always blame the woke for “causing” this with their “excessive wokeness”. They will never ever acknowledge that they stoked a moral panic with predictably horrible outcomes.

Reform UK want headlines about growth – but the real story is infighting, chaos and scandals. Today’s PR stunt won’t change that. ❌

While Tate's electoral success seems unlikely, what's more worrying is larger right-wing parties adopting this same rhetoric to appeal to young men
