From 1st April, even if the disabled, pensioners, unemployed & low paid, sat in the dark, didn’t turn on the heating and miss 2 meals a day; they still WOULDN’T be able to meet the cost of their bills! That’s reality @RishiSunak. You own this #CostOfLivingCrisis #EnergyCrisis

It’s half term. It’s hot. The water may be inviting, but it’s DANGEROUS! PLEASE 🙏 warn your children of the dangers of swimming and diving into reservoirs, rivers or the sea, during this warm weather. Hidden dangers exist. Make sure your child comes home. #BeWaterAware

@LucyGoBag Brands rely on their core identity, authenticity, trust and adaptability. #ReformUK ‘brand’ is beginning to shed these quite extensively.

The far-right are obsessed with “protecting children” until the conversation turns to: * poverty * child hunger * school funding * social care * domestic abuse Then suddenly the outrage disappears.

@Independent @TheMeldrew There is not just simmering racism within the ranks of #Reform - there is unabashed misogyny and homophobia too. Ever since Reform emerged, their antagonistic language and populism has deeply emboldened such behaviour in our country. People like Kenyon don’t belong in politics.

LOADS of comments in support of Reform’s plans to abolish income tax on overtime. On the side of alarm clock Britain!

@TwiningsUK your #Assam tea is neither strong or malty! This is the third cup of milky hot water I’ve endured from this box. Would like to know what is the reason for this dire disappointment. Been drinking your #tea for years.

@Dmdav1 I grew up in the 70/80s and had to eat tinned pilchards in tomato sauce for dinner almost every day, because they were only 3p at the local Safeway. If my mum really pushed the boat out - we got a Bernard Matthew turkey roast on Sundays. Lush life.

I grew up in the 60/70s we never ate, only drank well water, my parents would kill pigeons and bake them as a treat, we never went on holiday, we would drape a curtain over the washing line and sit in there with the Argos catalogue & unfulfilled dreams …you?

There are things about this nice weather I dislike more than the heat; Like trying to sit quietly in your garden reading, but having to listen to the blood curdling screams of children and the raised voices of adults. Not great 😔 #Heatwave

@LukeMLabour I’m sorry, but you can do better than this truth twisting. You know damn well that over half of these appointments are unqualified support roles and people who have undertaken ‘Mental Health First Aid’ training. Don’t do that. It’s not a race, it’s people’s lives. #MentalHealth

@nadhimzahawi @reformparty_uk You mean, “When Nigel ordered me to say this idea was great, my initial reaction was to do as I am told…” You betrayed the #Conservatives to join this cult, only to become nothing more than a nodding dog on the parcel shelf of a party full of fantasists. Sad man. #Reform #Cult

When Nigel told me about this policy, my immediate reaction was this is brilliant for the grafters, the great men & women who do extra hours to make sure they put good food on the table and their kids grow up with a real chance in life. We are on your side. Vote @reformparty_uk in Makerfield & we get this Gov out & get the country working again. 👇🏽

🚨Important policy announcement: Britain was built on the hard graft of people who go the extra mile. A Reform government will ABOLISH income tax on hours worked beyond 40 hours a week, for incomes below £75,000 a year. It’s time to REWARD hard work, not punish it! 🇬🇧

Absolutely loved this! It’s Cocoon and #StrangerThings wrapped into one - with a witty, impressive script that slowly builds until you’re hooked. Great performances from a ‘classic’ cast of actors, also make it very watchable. I highly recommend #TheBoroughs @NetflixUK

@EssexPR Would cost £9bn and take 5 years to implement. (Reform: robbing Peter to pay Paul) Would also mean a complex change to the tax system. Words are easy.

Reform is the *only* party whose mayors have all promised never to introduce Reeves’s Holiday Tax. Families deserve to be able to have a break and have some fun.

🚨 I heard there was a by-election in Makerfield… …and I don’t think many people want another 3 years of: ❌ David Lammy ❌ Angela Rayner ❌ Rachel Reeves ❌ Yvette Cooper ❌ Ed Miliband ❌ Bridget Phillipson So I thought I’d come up for the day and lend a hand helping accelerate Labour’s downfall. Because if you want rid of Labour in Makerfield… …you have to vote Reform.
