🚨 Campaign Latest 🚨 Mainstream contacted me today saying they are going to do an article about my "admiration" of Tommy Robinson 🤷🏻‍♂️ This was my reply 👇🏻 Good afternoon, Thank you for giving me the opportunity to respond. Yes, I have expressed support for some of Tommy Robinson’s views, particularly his willingness to raise issues such as grooming gangs at a time when many felt these concerns were not being properly addressed. Agreeing with someone on certain issues does not mean endorsing everything they say or do. I believe in freedom of speech, holding those in power to account and speaking up about issues that others might prefer to ignore. However, I do find it interesting that the focus is on social media posts I made years ago, rather than on my own background and experiences. At just 18 years old, I was sent to fight in Iraq under a Labour government. I served my country, yet we went to war without being provided with all the equipment we needed. I would be interested to see the same level of scrutiny applied to the politicians responsible for sending young men and women into conflict without adequately equipping them. Today, I am standing as a Reform UK candidate for Risca East because I want to stand up for local people, challenge a council that I believe has let our community down, and fight for greater accountability and value for taxpayers’ money. I will not apologise for having opinions or for speaking up on issues I believe matter. I am happy to be judged on my views, my service to this country and, ultimately, what I intend to do for the people I hope to represent. Kind regards, Reform UK candidate for Risca East

We Will Remember Them 🌺🫡

🚨An elected representative's job is to speak up for the people who elected them, even when the subjects they raise are uncomfortable or controversial. The Senedd should be a place for open debate, challenge and accountability, not a place where difficult conversations are shut down. You don't have to agree with Joe Martin's views to defend his right to raise issues on behalf of his constituents. Democracy must allow room for disagreement. Free speech matters 🗣️

🚨A VETERAN WHO SERVED HIS COUNTRY DESERVES BETTER. This evening I've visited a friend, a fellow veteran I served alongside in Iraq, and what I've seen has honestly left me disgusted. He's fallen on hard times, is living with PTSD and, following a serious fall which resulted in a broken ankle and surgery, has now found himself homeless in Newport. Although accommodation has been provided, the conditions are frankly unacceptable. He's been placed in shared accommodation with people whose circumstances mean he doesn't feel it's suitable or safe for his young children to visit him. I've seen the conditions myself, and I wouldn't consider them fit for anyone to live in. Someone who once stood alongside me serving our country should not be left feeling abandoned when he needs help the most. I've raised this with my friend and fellow Reform member, Welsh Parliament Member @ArtWrightMS Art and his team are now providing support, and Art personally raised the situation with the First Minister in the Senedd today. Unfortunately, the response did little to address the very real concerns being raised. Our veterans deserve dignity, safety and somewhere they can call home. They shouldn't have to fight another battle just to get the basic support they need. I'll be doing everything I can to support my friend 🫡

As a Veteran this makes me so proud finally the most patriotic leader of any party as been allowed to lay a wreath @Nigel_Farage 🌺🫡

🚨 WHEN STANDING UP FOR CHANGE COMES AT A PERSONAL COST 👇🏻 The level of election interference and underhand tactics throughout this campaign has been staggering. I knew standing for election would come with its challenges, but I never expected it to go this far, including anonymous attempts to involve my family's personal lives and even my wife's workplace. It tells me that challenging the established political order brings its own pressures. But I won't be intimidated, I won't be silenced and I certainly won't be walking away. I'll keep fighting for the people who want change, for those who feel they've never had a voice, and for those who have simply lost faith in politics. Whatever is thrown my way, I'll keep standing up for Risca East and my country 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧

🚨 Well done to my Reform colleagues in the Senedd for affectively overturning this 💪🏻 Climate change initiatives in Africa, such as those that involve tree planting should not be funded by Welsh tax payers 🫸🏻 Charity begins at home 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

🚨 While the weather back home is getting colder and energy bills getting bigger, Andy and Ed are in the Carribbean playing drums and giving away money like confetti 🤦🏻‍♂️

🚨 Reforms Defence spokesman 🫡 Angus MacIntyre, 40 years in uniform. Frontline in Crossmaglen, Afghanistan, Iraq and more 🎖️ More real experience than the entire government defence team combined. An operator, not a career politician. Exactly what defence needs 💪🏻 Compare that to Wes Streeting with zero military experience, and a boss that reckons social security comes before national security 🤦🏻‍♂️

🇬🇧 there is probably only one last chance to save this country from a hard left, woke, socialist dystopia folks! Let's unite the right 🗳️

🚨 1670 Small boat arrivals in a week Nearly 2k doctors and engineers arrived in the last week 📈 Yet apparently Andy thinks the numbers are down 🤥

🚨Plaid Cymru’s Welsh Government is still funding beekeeping projects in Uganda (approved by Labour) 👎🏻 Meanwhile hundreds of thousands of people in Wales wait months or years for NHS treatment. Priorities? This all ends under Reform 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

🚨 Thanks @HelenJennerMS for travelling down from North Wales on Sunday to help me campaign 🩵👌🏻 Never trust Labour 👇🏻

🚨 I wonder who will be announced as our new Shadow Defence Secretary this week 🫡

🚨 Anyone who vandalises our war memorials should receive and automatic 10 year prison sentence 🫡

🚨 Another great day on the campaign trail, this time joined by the Leader of Reform in Wales @HelenJennerMS, lots of support on the doorstep 👌🏻🩵 I'm going to finally break Labour's dominance on Caerphilly county council 💪🏻

🎃👻 The Labour Government trying to frighten us to prepare for WW3 But we haven't even got enough troops to be classed as a proper Army anymore 🙄 For god's sake fund our bloody Military 🪖

🚨 Campaign Latest 🚨 Our children deserve better, our families deserve support, and our community deserves to be heard. It’s time for change. It's time for Reform 🩵 #ALN

🚨 Chancellor John Healey should of thrown a full pint over his head instead 🤡 To help with Energy costs they give out a measly £100 to 20 million Let's look at the other figures 👇🏻 Ukraine - £10 billion / 20 million = £500 per person 🇺🇦 Foreign Aid - £15 billion / 20 million = £750 per person 🌎 Talk about looking after everyone else in the world before your own people 👎🏻

🚨 Absolutely Brilliant @ZiaYusufUK telling @campbellclaret that him and Blair should be in jail 👏🏻 Fair play his face looked like a bulldog chewing a wasp 🤣 #bbcqt

🚨 Everyone please watch this 😢 Failed to address the two things that could have raised the money to help hardworking businessmen like Paul 👉🏻Welfare bill 👉🏻Immigration Result 👇🏻 Businesses continue getting screwed 🤬
