Look I’m not going to justify myself but any critics need to look back at my posts condemning in the strongest possible terms, ‘Zionism is racism’ policy. But good god I wish the media would eviscerate, interrogate and condemn Reform UK’s leaders in interviews as they have done with Zack Polanski?

Seems that the person who drafted the Green party motion came via Your Party and joined - by her own admission - to press this simply because the Greens had a bigger platform. Classic bit of entryism which now threatens the future of the movement.

Not going to share the video, because it is actually horrific, but the footage of Reform members assaulting a young protestor whilst Farage smiles and jokes is probably one of the most disgusting things I've seen in politics and speaks to the fundamental weakness in Reform voters' character.

Chris Mason (BBC) reports on his “interview” with Nigel Farage. It’s not an interview. It’s an idiotic, moany rant from Farage about how he’s being picked on cos he reckons he’s a threat to the establishment. And Mason just folds like a wet cardboard box in the face of this delusional bollox.
Farage pictured with his innocent face on… (it’s hideous - my opinion) 

Nigel Farage insists he's 'broken no rules'He added: "The point is, we live in a complainants' society. If you complain about me, automatically that triggers an investigation."
He said that political parties were "constantly writing to all the authorities", meaning Reform was "under investigation every day for virtually everything we do".
"There's a big picture here. The old two-party system that has dominated since the end of the First World War feels for the first time it faces an existential threat.
"There is a whole ecosystem with a century of development around this. And we come along from virtually nowhere and threaten the whole thing.”

The problem is, "looking at things" doesn't make them happen, & its very unlikely many councils will be controlled by Greens after the May elections. Plus, of course, what rents would a Council control? Council houses? How would he replace that lost revenue? Councils don't control private rents.
