“It turns out they’re all wankers and it turns out they all hate each other and it turns out all they do is fight with each other” It’s not all going to plan for Reform UK, who like to think of themselves as a party of government, but are repeatedly mired in chaos, scandals and bitter infighting. Nigel Farage and his cronies would like you to think their conference earlier this month showed how buoyant a mood the party is in, however all is far from well. Anti-extremism campaign group Hope not Hate has revealed that Reform’s own South East…

Reform UK indoctrination in schools.’ Reform has been accused of indoctrination in schools, after a school in Rochester launched an essay competition offering a Nigel Farage football shirt as a prize.  For a party that claims left-wing ideologies and “wokeism” are taking over schools, this is highly ironic.  The Kent school, Sir Joseph Williamson’s Mathematical School, is facing questions about political impartiality after it launched the essay prize for GCSE students in Citizenship. According to Local Authority news website, pupils have been asked to write 1,000 words on Reform, tackling the question: “Evaluate the view…

Danny was elected as a Conservative a little over a year ago, and people voted for a Conservative candidate.” Clewer described Kruger as a “fiscally conservative politician” and pointed out…
