I disagree with almost everything the Green party stands for, but what Hannah Spencer has described here shouldn’t be happening.
The people we elect shouldn’t be drinking on the job.
If one pint is enough to impair your ability to drive, it’s enough to impair judgment when voting on laws that affect the entire country.
This isn’t about party politics, it’s about standards.

Reform UK’s spokesperson Zia Yusuf has spoken about the party’s new series of education policies, including mandatory displays of the King's portrait and the Union flag in every school, alongside the introduction of ‘patriotic’ history lessons.
The party said the measures aim to restore 'national pride' within the curriculum.

@mhound5 Not necessarily…. It may actually be an unintended push for it.
People like to smoke and have done for generations. Something will take its place.
Other countries around the world are relaxing laws around cannabis.
Zero benefits to tobacco but there are benefits to cannabis.

@Emma_A_Webb It really makes no difference, the ban is totally unenforceable.
If someone wants to take up smoking, they will do easily!
It’s simply so the MPs who signed it off can give themselves a pat on the back and act like they achieved something

I don’t smoke. Never have. I have no skin in the game. But this really is draconian. It should not be within the power of the government to interfere with the personal choices of citizens like this.

@LighthouseBilly @es03852 @theepicmap It’s right wing to not want illegal immigrants ? And to want people to contribute to our society? Who knew. 🤷♂️

@PhilMcCavity17 @xavierjp__ Great, I hope that day never comes for you.
You are not welcome in the UK

@99Chocobos @xavierjp__ Because my country is infested with rapists. If anyone can persuade them all to fuck off home - me and my girls will come back to my country. I respect the brave patriots that have stayed but I have to think of what’s best for my family.

@xavierjp__ She’s a credit to Britain. Foreigners need to understand they are unwelcome. We did not invite you to come and we sure as hell want you to go. So fuck off and leave our brave seniors alone.
