Cllr Sam Journet

In remembering Ann Widdecombe, it’s impossible to ignore the principle she defended for decades. She believed freedom of speech mattered more than protecting people from being offended. @reformparty_uk believes the same.

@ZiaYusufUK “People you may know” I don’t think so. 🤢🤢🤢

Disgraced former Tory MP Harvey Proctor, worked with the Times to publish this disgusting headline. Given what has now come to light, it is in fact HE who has done the thing he accused Nigel of. What a depraved man. He must apologise now.

The Reform family stands together.

You’re a disgrace Natalie. Someone from Reform was just murdered. Vile

If they're so sure this wasn't political - just a random nutter driving 300 miles to kill someone in Devon and just happening to alight on a high profile politician - then they should reveal why. Naturally, people are anxious.

Over the past THREE days alone, 555 illegal migrants have broken into Great Britain. Travelling via 8 dinghies in the English Channel.

🚨NEW: England is 1,099 years old today

@russellquirk This is the facial expressions and body language of someone being asked to lie. They know the truth.

Is anyone else concerned about whether we can have 100% faith in the words of our UK police leaders anymore?

What a time to be alive. Do we dare to dream? Well done lads. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

The Bas Vegas flag has quietly become one of the stars of England’s World Cup. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 If England brings it home, we should fly this flag permanently from our Council building, and give these lads Freedom of the Borough.

Nothing was stolen from Ann Widdecombe’s home. A 78-year-old woman was bludgeoned to death in her remote Dartmoor house and the killer took nothing. No robbery. No burglary. So what was the motive? Ann Widdecombe wasn’t a random pensioner. She was a former government minister, a fierce and unapologetic voice in Reform UK, and their Immigration and Justice Spokesperson. She spent years speaking out against mass immigration, gender ideology, and the erosion of British identity. Now she’s dead in her own home and police are already telling the media there’s “no information” to suggest a political motive. When a high-profile conservative figure is murdered and nothing is taken, every possibility including political must be properly investigated.

Will they please give Nigel Farage state security protection? This is inhuman.

@Joseph_Boam The achievement on the EHCP timeframes is incredible. I’ve tasked the officers around me at Essex to achieve this very number, or better. Well done, Joseph & Team.

Here’s what the fake news won’t tell you about what Reform UK Leicestershire has been delivering: Below is a list of our less talked about recent local wins - • Expanded FoxConnect Zone 11 from 15 July, including Ashby de la Zouch and three new Family Hub stops for better access to jobs, healthcare and education. • Reduced EHCP wait times from 58 weeks under the previous administration to just 18 weeks, now below the statutory target. • Invested £400,000 in junction upgrades in Oadby for safer crossings, alongside a £3 million summer resurfacing programme and new rapid response grass cutting team. • Paid off tens of millions of inherited debt, brought council borrowing to its lowest level in history, and delivered the lowest council tax rise in over a decade while identifying significant efficiency savings. • Successfully passed a motion demanding greater transparency from the Home Office on asylum accommodation in HMOs. • Supported local growth through new business units in Lutterworth creating over 100 jobs, the opening of Zouch Bridge, and a new primary school in Broadnook. This is what responsible local government looks like, no service cuts, better value for taxpayers, and real progress on the issues that affect daily life. The contrast with previous administrations is clear. We’re building a stronger Leicestershire. 🇬🇧

If you said something disgusting about Ann yesterday. Don’t play the victim now.

@juneslater17 @AnnDavi11625965 What we have seen over the last 24hrs has been horrendous. The left, and the mainstream media have fallen to new depths.

Sky News Adam Bolton Dreadful behaviour

@adamboultonTABB I really hope that these broadcasters do not offer you anymore work. You should be ashamed of yourself.

AN APOLOGY I was seriously wrong and insensitive in one of the several media appearances I made yesterday in reaction to the death of Ann Widdecombe. I got the timing and tone of my initial word portrait of her wrong. Of course I shared, and share, the horror at her murder and the respect for her remarkable and feisty political career. I also know that many people loved her for her subsequent showbiz stardom. Her untimely death is a horrible thing. My mistaken view was that in the context of rolling news coverage, I was being asked to contribute as an obituarist who has known her and interacted with her since the 1980s. This approach was premature. At no point was I expressing my personal feelings about her, that's not what I do. I was discussing her life in the round, based on the record of known facts and what she has said about herself, along with some recollections of our personal interactions. My choice of words on the spur of the moment was clumsy. I did not intend to offend though obviously I did.

@ArchRose90 Wow. That says all we need to know about him.

Adam Boulton: I am a fact based journalist. Also Adam Boulton:

Rewarding this behaviour by allowing Sky to expand its influence would further concentrate media ownership. We call on the Government to intervene in the public interest and use all available legal powers to prevent any acquisition of ITV by Sky.

Sky should not be permitted to acquire ITV. We believe recent conduct by Sky News has raised serious concerns about editorial standards, impartiality and public confidence, including its coverage of political figures and their families.

I have started a petition for the Government to intervene on the purchase of ITV, by Sky News. The recent unethical conduct by this broadcaster means that they should not be able to expand their influence in the UK. Can we count on you to sign it? Sign it below. 👇
