Hey… but come on… audits - where you find out what your budgets are, what money is being spent and how much you have left - are expensive… and only something proper grownups do. Reform just wants racist bunting and to hell with constituents and cost. (iPaper)

LOCAL GOVERNMENT
Spend on Union flags defended
Reform UK-led Nottinghamshire
County Council has defended plans to spend £75,000 on purchasing Union flags.
More than 150 flags in 82 locations will be displayed.
But opposition politicians questioned if the expenditure was a good use of public money.
Sam Smith, Conservative leader of the opposition, said:
"To spend £75,000 of taxpayers' money on flags seems a bit ridiculous."
Labour MP for Mansfield, Steve Yemm, said: "My constituents will be appalled."

REFORM UK
Doge' unit fails to carry out audits
Reform UK's so-called "Doge" unit has carried out no audit work in the councils it won control of nearly six months ago.
The party vowed swingeing efficiency cuts to council budgets, in the mould of Elon Musk's US Department of Government Efficiency, after gaining control of nine local authorities across England in May.
Deputy party leader Richard Tice told the Financial Times it was never the "intention to audit them, because audits are expensive".

This week our fantastic supporters handed in a 20,000-strong petition to Ofwat. Like us, they want Ofwat to reject Thames Water's outrageous proposal - to pollute illegally until 2040. Find out more at vist.ly/4bpys

Yesterday Mark Carney was told, “Mr Carney, there’s a genocide in Palestine”. “I’m aware,” Carney told the protester, “That’s why we have an arms embargo.” This has really, really upset Benjamin Netanyahu, so don't RT unless you hate him.

Israel has been on the path of fascism for some time now, why our governments in the west continue to support these genocidal psychopaths is the greatest question and disgusting shame. #GazaGenocide

Russia has not agreed to peace. Russia does not offer peace. Russia still wants to conquer all of Ukraine, militarily or diplomatically. Russia says this all the time. Peace is just as far today as it was on Feb 24 2022.

It is also the Int'l Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination & the start of Israeli Apartheid Week 2025.

Entire families have been wiped out. Hospitals are overwhelmed. Gaza is burning once again. The humanitarian situation is dire, as supplies are running out due to the ongoing blockade of any aid and electricity imposed by Israel, all while facing acute food, fuel and medicine shortages.
