On the eve of the #localelections thank you @privateeyenews.bsky.social for absolutely nailing the weapons-grade, rock-solid, brain-melting idiocy of voting for Farage and Reform…
Reform projected to do brilliantly in mayoral contests IN SHOCKING news many of the people who thought their lives would get better after Brexit are going to be voting for a party led by the man who told them Brexit would solve all Britain's problems. "It just makes sense,” said one voter, whose personal income had been hammered by a drop-off of trade with Europe, by the government having less money to spend and by an overall lack of economic growth. "This guy tells it like it is - he blames someone else and denies all responsibility. We should be punishing the government for not making my life better - and to do that, I'll be voting for someone who has made my life worse." Many thousands of others have decided that they will make a vote to protest against the mainstream, and, in order to register their disapproval, they will vote for a man who's been a professional politician for several decades and earned millions of pounds off the back of it. "This is the way to show those mainstream politicians what's what," said one voter, casting a ballot for arguably the most influential British politician of the last three decades. "This will turn everything round."

I fucking weep for my country sometimes.

Who looks over the pond at Trump and all that nonsense and says..."I'll have the British version of that"?

Stupid brexiter idiots. God I hate them.

The Trump effect would be the Farage effect. Swagger and prejudice that are isolating and ruinous.
The Brexit shitshow and America’s humiliation should be sounding very loud alarm bells. Not encouraging more stupidity. #localelections

History will not be kind to all those pandering to this flip-flopping political huckster. Already his support is waning, a string of polls released to mark the 100 days showing voter approval has plummeted to historic lows at this point in a presidency. The US economy is shrinking. Tourism is crashing alongside the country's global reputation. And Canada's election has shown that foreign politicians who fight for liberal values and put their country's interests first by standing up to Trump's bullying can thrive - while those that get too close to him can crash.

🚨🚨 #Labour's poor results in #localelections is not an isolated incident in European politics but a part of a larger well known history lesson- it is nonsensical and self-destructive to copy the ORIGINAL hard Right-Wing populist alternative.

A little perspective. Which you won’t get from the media. Note that only England had local elections: Scotland & Wales had full parliamentary elections.

Pie chart of the distribution of Council seats across the UK following the English Local Council election on 7 May. Despite the lurid headlines, Reform has 3.8% of seats, well behind the Greens, who have 4.7%.

At least more Council Tax payers will now learn that #ReformUK will do fuck all for them🤨

So will be less tempted to vote for them in a General Election

"there is a particular kind of audacity required to spend decades dismantling something, then point to the rubble and declare it someone else’s fault. Nigel Farage has that audacity in spades. He has built an entire political career on it"

‘Nigel Farage Is the Architect of the Uk’s Decline and It’s Time for the Rest of Us to Rebuild Our Home in Europe’

The disastrous Brexit experiment imposed on us by the Reform UK leader and his allies must now be reversed, argues Caroline Lucas

BREAKING: Nigel Farage has FINALLY admitted that Reform UK lied about cutting council tax.

That means he knows HE lied repeatedly about whether they promised to.

Are Reform voters smart enough to reject a proven liar in the #LocalElections?

Once again Zack Polanski and the Greens call it for what it is.

'Authoritarianism'

We've seen it with Palestine Action, Lammy's plan to curb Jury Trials....they keeps telling us what they are.
We should listen.

29mago 15.31 GMT Zack Polanski welcomes news 30 local elections now going ahead, saying cancelling them was part of ‘disturbing authoritarian trend’ The Green party leader, Zack Polanski, has welcomed the news that local elections are going ahead in the 30 areas where they were going to be postponed. He says: 44 1am pleased the Government has done another u turn. Attempting to cancel elections, on top of scrapping jury trials, mandatory ID cards, criminalising peaceful protest and harassment of journalists is part of a disturbing authoritarian trend of this caretaker Prime Minister.
