Reform Party UK Exposed @reformexposed.bsky.social · 28/05/2025
Tom Seston has just been announced as Reform UK's candidate for #Eastfield, North #Yorkshire. @reformuk.bsky.social were you aware he once made a joke about the Yorkshire Ripper? Seems the original article has been taken down, but it's still archived.

I was honoured to be invited to write a guest article for North West Bylines. Possibly a more controversial topic this time! northwestbylines.co.uk/politics/is-...

Is Labour really “coming for the pensioners”?
Is the Conservative Party fair in accusing Labour of “contempt for pensioners”?

So, let's hope you're not on maternity leave, or in a war zone, or in training, or at home with the flu, or just on holiday hiking up a mountain. Because Elon - an entirely unelected foreigner, with zero security clearance, who apparently now runs the US - will decide everyone's fate, every Monday.

Telling that Starmer's response focused on the tweets about Jess Phillips rather than himself. Systems and policies matter, but never underestimate the importance of having a genuinely decent human being in charge.

The government needs to consider this a threat and act accordingly. He’s like your racist aunt who shares memes saying Muslims are trying to ban Christmas, except he’s not just shouting into the void, he’s a multi billionaire with access to the president and millions of idiot simps. What a twat.

Musk and his American followers claim the grooming scandal has been ignored. Some UK commentators are now supporting this. Yet Musk's engagement with it clearly involves this authoritarian targetting of a female government minister who has long faced violent threats due to her advocacy for women

Elon Musk, owner of X, tweeted that Home Office Minister Jess Phillips "deserves to be in prison" and labelled her a "rape genocide apologist" This is the type of radicalised content that socialises people towards violence against Ministers and MPs www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/starmer...

Starmer urged to take action as 'out of control' Musk targets Jess Phillips
Days after calling for X posts to be "more positive", Musk has dubbed Jess Phillips a "rape genocide apologist".
