Was starting to come over to the idea of voting for reform..

Until I saw this.

This simple act sickens me to my core. Our grandparents stood up for what is right. They gave their lives fighting against overwhelming odds.

The fact that Reform already have russian links is worrying, but actively taking down signs of support for Ukraine is just gut wrenching.

And to pass it off as 'We just fly UK flags'. If anyone buys that. It's a symbol. It's telling Russia, "You can set your online bots in favour of us", "Give us funding, we are on your side" - It's a betrayal.

Ukrainians are fighting the most brutal war we have seen since 1940. They are laying down their lives and spilling their blood fighting for what Reform claim to fight for. They are draining the 2nd largest military power in the world.

I want immigration to stop. I want pro small business policies. But I know Farage will literally bend over and beg for a bit of money from the Russians.

Why do people act like concerns over immigration have only appeared because of the 'right wing' media?

In 2013, a non partisan organisation ran a poll asking Britons what their biggest concerns were.

The result? Immigration.

The same report also suggested the country is, at heart, tolerant of those who come to its shores. We were and we are. But it's gone too far.

75% of respondents wanted a reduction, and 51% desiring a large reduction.

This was in 2013!! before social media had a hold of our attention. Before Donald Trump, before Nigel Farage became a thorn in the side of this country. Before an additional 3 million people came.

Corbyn didn't listen, Ed Miliband didn't listen, Cameron, Johnson, May all didn't listen. Kier Starmer gets it but had his hands tied by backbenchers.. don't cry when we end up with Reform.
