Reform UK candidate in Cornwall Ollie Williams was on Love Island, people called on him to be booted off the show when it emerged he is a fan of trophy hunting. Ollie is running for the ‘anti-establishment’ party, despite being set to inherit the 2,000-acre estate and become a Viscount.

Privatisation hasn't failed, it is Profitisation. Taking something owned by you, transferring it to them, and then robbing you forever. It should all be taken back from the thieves with no compensation.

French lower house votes through wealth tax. A 2% minimum tax rate on the wealth of individuals whose net worth exceeds €100m. It is not yet law. UK needs to do similar to reduce inequalities. Instead govts penalise low/middle income families and make poor pay more for crumbling infrastructure.

UK energy industry made £483bn profit since 2020. OFGEM's marginal pricing rules guarantee profits to the most inefficient/costly producer. 1 in 5 of all deaths are people in fuel poverty – including 110,000 pensioners. No curbs on profiteering. Real wages cut. WFP cut. Cost of living soaring.
