Your politicians definitely do have experience beyond Westminster. We'll give you that. 🇷🇺
Says the party whose defence spokesperson has been:
1. Shadow Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury
2. Shadow Schools Minister
3. Shadow Secretary of State for Child Poverty
4. Secretary of State for Health and Social Care
5. Secretary of State for Defence
Labour and the Tories have broken Britain by filling ministerial roles with people who have no experience beyond Westminster.
Britain is broken. Reform will fix it.
Why has it taken Reform UK almost 2,000 days to announce a defence spokesperson?
Why did they announce a plan for their first 100 days in government with nothing on national security?
Defence can't be an afterthought.
The charges facing George Madgwick are truly sickening.
Arrested in January. Appointed as Reform’s leader in Hampshire in May. Promoted in Reform HQ in July.
Farage must come clean on what he knew and when.
Never forget: the Tories hollowed out our Armed Forces.
Even their own Defence Secretary admitted it.
Tories: we broke the immigration system
Also Tories: we really really think you can trust us to fix it though
FACT CHECK:
✅ Local Green groups were given an opportunity to denounce the disgraceful "Zionism is Racism" policy and call on their leadership to do the same.
✅ Several did, and those local arrangements remain in place.
❌ It's disappointing more Green groups didn't feel they could do the same - we continue to call on the Green Party to drop this appalling policy.
✅ Today's action addresses support for this unacceptable policy - which clearly crosses a line. Local power sharing arrangements cannot come at the expense of upholding the moral obligation we have to stand up for everyone in our communities and the values we share.
❌ Today's action was not about whether people can or cannot criticise the actions of the Israeli Government - as the Labour Party repeatedly has.
❌ Any suggestion that today's action was about anything other than the "Zionism is Racism" policy is plain misinformation.
✅ Labour councillors will continue working hard day in, day out for their local communities. That's what we do.
Bridget, telling lies is a breach of the Ministerial Code.
It's well known from your time as Education Secretary (before your demotion!) that you struggle with the truth.
As the then junior minister responsible for financial services regulation, I was not even remotely a 'co-author' of the mini budget. I did not see it until the night before.
I’m flattered that my decades of real-world business experience outside Westminster trigger so many Labour MPs. It’ll be useful when the next Conservative government has to clean up your mess!
(P.S. Mortgage rates are higher now than in 2022…)
Kemi Badenoch desperately re-writing history again over her support for the war in Iran.
At least she goes on to admit the Tories "weakened" the economy long before the war started.
Sometimes Robert Jenrick must look in the mirror and not recognise himself.
He can't even call out blatant racism against his former party leader.
Calling out racism isn't a matter of party politics. It's about basic decency.
Tory leader says country was miserable and paralysed under the Tories
"The Prime Minister was not here for the 2017 Parliament, but many of us were.
"We do not want to go through that again.
"The country was paralysed.
"It was miserable, regardless of which side of the debate you were on.
"Does the Prime Minister really think the country wants to reopen the debate?"
