Reform UK have just lost a Kent County Council seat they were defending to the Greens in a by-election.
Itโs supposed to be the โshop windowโ for a Reform government, yet David Bull is not mentioning anything that Reform on KCC has delivered in this video.
Interesting.
Dr David Bull@drdavidbull
Ignore the lies and trust Reform UK. ๐

The Greens took votes from all the parties here - even Reform UK!
The council leader has described KCC as the โshop windowโ for a Reform UK government, but it seems that - at least in Cliftonville - people are not impressed with whatโs been delivered.

Liberal Democrats get things done. We donโt do division. We do potholes and police officers, church roofs and clean rivers.
We focus on the local issues that matter to you.
Vote Liberal Democrat on 7th May.

Cllr Sam Journet is the person Reform UK would have leading Basildon Borough Council.
They are turning a blind eye to allegations - from someone who was also a Reform councillor in Basildon until recently - of bullying.
Would the Basildon Tories go into coalition with a bully?

Damning statement by Sarah Shields the councillor who resigned from Reform UK over bullying by @ReformUKSam. @McivorJaymey refused to take action until โafter the electionโ, @drdavidbull the chair palmed it off.

Whatever oneโs view on this, I donโt think a member of the Conservative front bench should be filming a video outside Waitrose demanding a u-turn on a business decision.
Unless theyโd change the law in government (which I strongly doubt), this just looks like bandwagon jumping.
Matt Vickers MP@Matt_VickersMP
Walker Smith served Waitrose loyally for 17 years. Fed up with witnessing blatant shoplifting, he stepped in to stop a thief stealing Easter eggs. His reward? He got sacked. It is nothing short of disgraceful. @waitrose, do the right thing and give him his job back.

Iโm unsure why the issue of potholes has been included when talking about South Cambs DC - itโs not their responsibility as a lower tier authority.
Ed has stated that this is not a blanket policy. Thereโs currently 74 other Lib Dem led councils, none of which have a 4-day week.

Ed Daveyโs Lazy Lib Dems are trying to scam you.

@jordanrstokes I have nothing against 20mph in principle - but Iโm of the view that it should be done on a case-by-case basis with local input, not thrust upon areas en-masse as a โone size fits allโ approach
English
@SamBaker149 We should be looking at 20 in built up areas it has a proven safety record
English
Absolute madness!
These policies would create an openly hostile environment towards motorists that would erode the ability for many to choose how they travel.
We do not need more anti-driver regulations, and taxes on fuel should not be going up either!

@CraigLiddell7 We were overdue for another Craigist Cabinet reshuffle!

Itโs that time again folks!
Canโt be arsed to wait for Starmer to do a reshuffle so we shall do one anyway!
Itโs Twitter Fantasy Cabinet time!! ๐๐
Comment if you would like to take part and retweeting is appreciated to get more people involved!! (Plus gains you some brownie points)
Craig Liddell@CraigLiddell7
In keeping with tradition, as Starmer has decided to do a full reshuffle of his Cabinet, I thought it would be a fun time to bring back my Twitter fantasy Cabinet! Please comment if youโd like to take part! (Retweeting also appreciated to get more people involved) :)

We knew that the government had reneged on their promise to allow jury trial rebels a place on the bill committee and removed the whip from Karl Turner.
But today we learn that Labour whips have been briefing the press about Karl using mental health smears.
Abhorrent.
Matthew@MatthewTorbitt
They were literally telling political editors that he was on suicide watch because he was vocal on jury trials. What sort of individual goes into politics to do that? How do you square that as being ok and the change you want to see in the country?

๐จ BREAKING: Nigel Farage has sacked Reform UK's housing chief Simon Dudley over his comments on post-Grenfell safety regulations
English
โEveryone dies in the endโ is not a line that belongs in a sensible discussion about safety regulations in housebuilding - especially not whilst referring to Grenfell.
Regulations should be kept to a minimum where possible, but in a way that doesnโt compromise safety.

All is not well with Reform UK in Croydon. But cracks are starting to show elsewhere too.
If Reform members resign due to the imposition of Tory defectors and the โTory 2.0โ image, will public opinion eventually reflect this?
