Very frustrating watching the UK media constantly broadcasting Nigel Farage's deceitful campaigning every week,
but fair play to Beth Rigby for actually holding him to account in Reform UK's mixed messaging,
which he really can't cope with, can he?
π¨π Nigel Farage says Reform UK never promised to cut council tax. An election leaflet says otherwise...
But not, it seems, bad enough at business to give over Β£200,000 to his bitcoin firm?

Nigel Farage standing like a racist grandad after the latest Reform UK stunt where they out artificially inflated prices on a petrol station price board and then climbed up a ladder and changed them for the fatally fascinated UK media who seem to think it's their job to follow the Reform UK agenda. The petrol station is fine out in Reform UK livery. The price board has a badge on the top with the Reform UK logo which is a turquoise arrow pointing to the far right which was originally a house pushed over on its side when it was the Brexit Party logo. It now says "Reform Refuel" Reform Refool more like. The prices are now Β£1 43 for diesel and Β£1.21 for unleaded. That's pretty close to what most people are paying now below the prices it says 25P OFF WITH FARAGE and more advertising for Reform UK but the hidden cost of Farage will be many magnitudes of 25p

Petrol / diesel in Birmingham this afternoon Β£1.33 / Β£1.48

screenshot from the video Beth Rigby made at a petrol station in Buxton where Reform UK are subsidising prices to promote their proposal to cut fuel duty in the wake of the Iran War Shows a price board outside a petrol station which says diesel Β£1.68 a litre and unleaded petrol Β£1.46. That's about 20p over average today. These are the prices Nigel Farage is claiming that petrol and diesel were before their stunt where they climb up a ladder and change them for the adoring media who seem to think it's their job to follow every Reform UK stunt. You can tell Nigel Farage is lying because he's breathing. The petrol station info board has a badge on the top with the Reform UK logo which is a turquoise arrow pointing to the far right which was originally a house pushed over on it's side when it was the Brexit Party logo. It now says "Reform Refuel" above the prices where the brand of petrol station normally goes, and below the prices it should say 25P OFF WITH FARAGE and more advertising for Reform UK but now it says RIP OFF WITH FARAGE because I changed it in MS Paint.

Oh that's nice. Although I got the source wrong in a moment of brain fog, it was in the Examiner, not the Enquirer, so I am now in a librarian shame spiral.

Reform UK really are so lucky.
For a party of eight MPs they have the UKβs biggest news broadcaster on retainer.
Here we see their political editor doing the job of a local newspaper reporter.
For Farage.
EIGHT MPs.

Sorry it's in the Examiner, not the Enquirer. Brain fog.

Oh that's going to bug me, but can't be helped.
You are correct, not sure how that happened. Brain fog.
