Reform is too thick to hide their real motive for power. It’s not to make us wealthier. It’s not to improve our public services. It’s not even to manage immigration. It’s to wildly enrich themselves by dumping the rules and regulations that protect us from exploitation, discrimination and risk.

The super-rich rightwing are pouring money into Reform. Do ordinary voters really think their aim is to even out social inequality and make their lives better? Do they think they’re doing it so Farage invests in infrastructure and public services? Ffs. Democracy being beaten to death in plain sight.

The fact that Reform were trying to run a person who had been dead for six months as their Croydon Mayoral candidate is proof if it were needed that they are not a serious party. It demonstrates abject incompetence and no vetting as well as utter contempt for the electorate.
