Reform have taken a nailed-on victory and turned it into a likely defeat. This isn’t just because of their poor candidate choice, it’s a preview of what will happen to them nationally. Wherever Reform look like they might win, tactical voting will kick in hard. Their support simply isn’t broad enough to withstand it. They have enthusiastic backing in certain pockets, but not the wider appeal needed to convert local strength into national seats. If those Reform voters genuinely want a government that will implement workable controls on immigration and fix the economy, they have only one realistic national option: the Conservatives. Protest votes are understandable, but they risk delivering the opposite of what Reform supporters really want.

I'm probably wrong -but it seems to me ReformUKLtd is not taking the Makerfield by-election seriously. Why ? They've put up a duff candidate, Farage appears to have legged it & the campaign is lacklustre. I think they want AB to win- challenge KS for leadership & then call a GE.

Dont you get the whold fuckin country are with him. Social Media statements are head rush bollocks. Get used to it Reform are going knowhere and you Rape Gang sympathisers keep getting your piss boiled
(((Dan Hodges)))@DPJHodges

What I don't get. We're Reform aware of Kenyon's posts when they selected him. But simply said "delete them Rob, it'll be fine. Nobody'll find them". Or were they not aware, saw a guy who'd erased his entire social media history, and thought "nothing dodgy there. He'll do".

Folks Many have commented on the Murder of Henry Nowak without knowing the Full Facts; Police arrived on blue & twos to a very fast moving & confusing situation & were greeted with a False Allegation & acted on that Lie; hindsight is a gift none of us have & certainly not the police; It’s right & appropriate that @HantsPolice responded with the full facts when they could & as were seen by the responding officers; we live in a world of the Blame game; often with minimum facts or accurate information some immediately apportion blame; @HantsPolice were unable to respond to the criticism during a live criminal trial due to the Sub-judicial law; ie you cannot comment about a trial in any negative way when it’s ongoing trial; so nothing was being hidden as legally they could not respond in anyway; despite the media reporting on the case daily which they are entitled on doing so on evidence given in an ongoing case; ie only the facts given in open court; Put yourself in the shoes of those responding officers turning up at a chaotic scene with someone shouting allegations (now known as lies) & not being aware that a man had been stabbed; they were probably acting on instinct as they tried to fathom what had actually happened; Have the public got the right to ask questions of this incident? absolutely as the police are accountable to the public for any actions that they take be they rightly wrongly or in an honest belief that they were acting in trying to protect the public & making split second decisions with little to no information all of these questions & superstitions will now want & need answers; The suspect here was Not the victim but in fact the Individual who lied to the police who clearly did not know that that was the case in the initial seconds that they arrived; they were deceived; What was the Immediate concern of the officers? that there had been a racial attack? & if so was that their over riding concern? Could they have dealt with this matter differently? & if so how? These are the type of questions the @policeconduct will now Independently investigate; Those wishing to see the Officers BWC Footage will be disappointed at this stage as that is with the @policeconduct & that is right we cannot have the Social Media Jury giving their verdicts on just a short video clip without reading & hearing from all of the witnesses in this matter; The attending officers have been subject of a huge amount of abuse & condemnation & that should be reserved until we know the full facts of this matter as the dreadful headlines probably haven’t told the True Story just the salacious condemning parts; When the public are told of true facts probably by @policeconduct then that’s the time for comments & views when all the true facts & circumstances are known; The person we should all be condemning is the Murderer; the Lier along with his mother who took the knife the Murderer used in this monstrous & pointless killing & hid it in her house; He has been convicted of Murder & his Mother of assisting an offender & I hope that they each receive very long & appropriate sentences; I also saw many negative comments of when the judge gave the Jury his directions; he gave them the offence of Murder or Manslaughter to consider; I can tell you that alongside every Murder charge will also be the alternative charge of Manslaughter; the first requires an Intent to Murder & the other is a Killing without Intent! The Jury in the end absolutely got the verdict right; that of Murder where a fixed term of Imprisonment is passed & I’d suggest that will be in the region of 23/26yrs as the aggravating factors are high & the mitigating factors are low in this case in my opinion! The Murderer will have to serve the entire sentence that is passed called a Tariff as there is no early release when a person is convicted of a murder! I hope my overview helps put this case into some sort of perspective! Thanks & God Bless Mr Henry Nowak & his Family😞

Please watch this statement from Hampshire Police as they explain what happened when Henry Nowak was mistakenly handcuffed, and why they haven’t been able to speak about the circumstances until now: youtu.be/toKqDEYjVnk

A Charity Whose Trustees Read Like a Labour Honours List Is Trying to Win a By-Election. Hope Not Hate is a registered charitable trust. Charities operating in the political arena are bound by a simple and unambiguous rule. They must stress their independence. They must not encourage support for any particular party or candidate. They must not give funding to political parties or politicians. These are not guidelines. They are legal obligations enforced by the Charity Commission. Nigel Farage has written to the Charity Commission citing what he describes as a clear breach of those obligations in the Makerfield by-election constituency ahead of the June 18th poll. The facts documented in his letter are precise. Hope Not Hate sent leaflets to addresses in Makerfield encouraging voters to join the local fightback against Reform and scan a QR code to participate. The leaflet was promoted by Nick Lowles on behalf of Hope Not Hate Limited, a private company. That private company received £787,858 in grants from Hope Unlimited Charitable Trust in 2024, representing almost the entirety of the charitable trust's expenditure for the year. The action apparently changed nothing. The trustees of Hope Unlimited Charitable Trust and the directors and former directors of Hope Not Hate Limited include Frances O'Grady, former TUC General Secretary and Labour Peer. Gurinder Josan CBE, current Chair of HUCT and Labour MP. Jon Cruddas, former Labour MP. Alison Phillips, Chief Executive of LabourTogether, a Labour supporting think tank. Ruth Lauren Anderson, Labour Peer. Anna Turley, former Labour MP and Chair of the Labour Party. A charitable trust whose trustees are overwhelmingly current or former Labour politicians is funding a private company to distribute leaflets in a by-election constituency explicitly targeting Reform and backing the Labour candidate. The Charity Commission's own guidance states that a charity must steer clear of explicitly comparing its views with those of political parties or candidates taking part in an election. The leaflet's footer, to join the local fightback against Reform, does precisely that. This is not the first time the Charity Commission has been required to intervene. It opened a compliance case in July 2025 and concluded it in January 2026, declaring itself satisfied that the charity had taken sufficient steps to distinguish itself from Hope Not Hate Limited. The case was closed. Within months the same funding arrangement appears to have resumed with charitable funds flowing into electoral leaflets in a specific by-election constituency. The Commission closed the case. The behaviour apparently continued. The Makerfield by-election is the vehicle through which Andy Burnham intends to return to Westminster and challenge for the Labour leadership. Reform took every council seat in the area at the May local elections with 46.2 percent of the vote. The stakes could not be higher. And a charity whose trustees read like a Labour Party honours list is spending charitable funds to help deliver the result. The Charity Commission has 22 days to act before the votes are cast on June 18th. It has already investigated this arrangement once and the funding continued unchanged. Charitable money is being spent to influence a by-election that could determine who leads the country. The regulator that failed to stop it in January faces a simple question. Will it act before the result or after it no longer matters? "The leaflet was promoted by Nick Lowles on behalf of Hope Not Hate Limited, a private company."

Since the murder of Henry Nowak there has been stony silence from the Government. Not a peep from the Home Secretary. Not a word from the Prime Minister who is normally quick to respond to deaths involving the police, both in the UK and abroad. Remember the spectacle of him ‘taking the knee’ over George Floyd’s death? He won’t even say Henry Nowak’s name. Henry’s death constituted a national scandal. An 18 year old, robbed of his future on a night out in Southampton after being brutally stabbed 6 times with a 21cm long ceremonial sword. Instead of helping him, the police initially arrested him as he bled to death after he was accused by his attacker of racial harassment. Henry was treated not as the victim, but as the criminal. His murder could not have been more monstrous; the police response more shameful.  So why has this appalling injustice been met with a collective shrug by politicians in Westminster? With the exception of a couple of us including Henry’s local MP, Jen Craft, it has not been raised in the House of Commons. I asked the Home Secretary to launch an investigation into the police’s conduct and a debate on two-tier policing - needless to say I was rebuffed.  The silence can be explained by the fact that most politicians are more interested in showing their supposed virtue by favouring minority communities at the expense of the majority. So they look away at injustices perpetrated by minorities, lest it colour the multicultural illusion they have that the country is a harmonious melting pot. And they ignore prejudiced laws and the conventions of so-called ‘anti-racism’ which lead to discrimination against the majority.  The trial of Henry’s killer, Vickrum Digwa, may be over, but the questions are only just beginning. Why did the police arrest Henry based on one allegation he had made a racial slur - something the prosecution described as a “wicked lie”? Why was Henry’s handcuffing and arrest considered a priority for the police when he was in a critical condition? Why do perceived racial sensitivities consistently appear to shape how the police enforce the law these days?  The police have now apologised. But ‘sorry’ doesn’t cut it. Not remotely. Heads must roll for such a catastrophic failure. The bodycam footage must be released. And the police’s “anti-racist” training programmes need overhaul. We can’t go back in time and undo what has been done. Henry’s family and friends will live with this forever. But his tragic death should be a turning point. A clarion call for the authorities to act in a colour-blind way - treating people under the principle of equality before the law.
