For a party that constantly preaches 'freedom', threatening people with six months in prison for printing an election leaflet in Gaelic or Cornish is spectacular hypocrisy. Reform UK claims to love Britain, yet they demonstrably do not even understand its native cultural and linguistic fabric.

Criminalise Gaelic? Reform UK don't even know Britain – let alone love it
NEVER attribute to malice what can be explained by ignorance.
