FARAGE SINKS IN POLLS If you think Nigel Farage is looking a bit rattled this week, you would be right. Everything is shifting, and the opinion polls he loves to quote are moving against him rapidly. Here’s the snapshot. YOU GOV POLL YouGov this week has Reform sliding from a high of 35% in 2025 down to 23% (a drop of 12%) Hooray.🥳 The Greens are surging into second place on 21%, and sitting just two points behind while Labour and the Conservatives are languishing well below. MORE IN COMMON POLL But this one is the real kicker and I genuinely cannot stop laughing. More in Common asked people: if you could vote against one party in a general election, who would it be. And the party most voters would vote against is, yes, you guessed it, Nigel Farage and his cronies in Reform.😂 That matters because we are still stuck with our ridiculous first past the post system, which means tactical voting becomes powerful. Reportedly 56% of Labour voters would switch to vote against Reform at a general election. 63% of Lib Dem voters would do the same. And a whopping 79% of Green voters would vote against Reform. Even a quarter of Tory voters would vote against Reform. Ha ha. SCOTLAND POLLS In Scotland and Wales, people will be voting for their devolved governments in May, and the latest polling suggests Reform have dropped way, way down. REFORM IS IN TROUBLE So yes, it is good to know Reform is in trouble. And we are going to make that trouble grow. What do you think?🤔 Have a very happy weekend. 🤍 Also follow @reformarenotyourfriends and @mrcodydahler if you don’t already xx #UKPolitics #ReformUK #OpinionPolls #TacticalVoting

REFORM MONEY - 80%+ FROM TORY DONORS So we wake up to the news that Reform has accepted another £3 million from Christopher Harborne, a man based in Thailand, where he has lived for around 20 years. This is on top of the £9 million he gave to Reform UK last year, a record breaking personal donation in modern UK politics. It is reported by @financialtimeslive that Harborne is the largest shareholder in defence contractor QinetiQ which has multiple contracts with UK govt. He also bankrolled the Brexit Party to the tune of around £9 million AND, yes, he gave £1 million to Boris Johnson’s private office in 2022. So ask yourselves, why? Why does someone who lives in Thailand write cheques like this? Reform claims to be “anti establishment”. What a pile of tosh. Reform IS the establishment, packed with private school educated dismal and failed Tories. When a party is fuelled by mega donors and backed by people who have funded the Conservatives for years, that is not a grassroots revolt. That is establishment politics with a grubby new label. And here’s my view, loud and clear. No political party should be able to accept donations from any person or corporation that does not live in the UK and does not pay UK tax. There is no excuse. It has to stop. What do you think? 🤔 #UKPolitics #PoliticalDonations #ReformUK

MANDELSON’S PAYOFF £75,000 - 15 YOUNG NURSES HAVE GIVEN THEIR YEAR’S TAX STRAIGHT INTO HIS BANK ACCOUNT How Peter Mandelson has been given even a penny of our money in compensation is disgusting. It shows what too many governments think about the tax we pay. Because the reports say he asked for over half a million pounds. Over half a million. Then it becomes email after email, all the usual hand wringing, and suddenly it’s, well, he might take us to court and that could cost more, so we’ll give him £75,000. What?! What about standing up for us?! Do you know how much £75,000 is? It’s the equivalent of 15 young nurses paying their tax and National Insurance for a whole year straight into his bank account And we’re meant to just shrug and move on. Nah. I’m fuming What do you think? 🤔 #UKPolitics #TaxpayerMoney #Accountability #StandUpForTaxpayers

BIG NEWS ABOUT MY DAUGHTER KATIE ❤️❤️ I am so immensely proud of my girl today. Katie founded and runs BioOrbit, and the company has just raised around £10 million to take its drug crystallisation work from a lab here in the UK into space. Yes. SPACE. This is proper cutting edge stuff. BioOrbit is working to create self injectable cancer treatments, which could mean patients no longer having to receive certain treatments intravenously. And this £10 million raise is believed to be the largest seed round ever for an in space manufacturing startup. At the moment, many of these drugs need to be given through an IV because they require a lot of liquid to stay stable. When scientists have tried to concentrate them into smaller volumes before, the liquid can become thick and gloppy, meaning it cannot pass through a needle. But in microgravity, something extraordinary happens. These drugs can crystallise beautifully, allowing them to remain highly concentrated while still flowing well enough to fit inside a self injecting pen. So, thanks to this huge investment round, Katie and her brilliant team at BioOrbit are now working towards launching what could be the world’s first pharmaceutical mini prototype factory in space. A pharmaceuticals factory. In space. To help cancer patients. My girl ❤️ More news inbound…

REFORM DESPERATION IS GROWING Farage looks even more rattled this week. Last week we did a little video showing how Reform is going downhill massively in the polls. So Farage wrote to YouGov to complain.😂😂😂 Imagine being so devoted to “the will of the people” that you try to tell the pollster their numbers should be nicer. YouGov polling was hugely accurate in general election 2024 as they are doing what serious polling does. They are factoring in tactical voting, because millions of us have done it before and millions of us will do it again. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 And the numbers he is furious about? YouGov’s latest voting intention has Reform on 23% just above the Greens and the Tories (yes some people still want to vote for them surprisingly!). Then there’s the other little problem for him. His personal ratings. YouGov’s favourability tracker has 64%, nearly two thirds, of the public saying they don’t like him. In other words the vast majority of Brits can see right through him 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 And finally, last night’s rally in Swindon. Reform’s website suggested “thousands”, yes thousands, were expected to turn up, yet the venue only holds 700. And local reporters said that not every seat was filled! So it’s more and more Reform BS. So yes, the reek of desperation from Reform HQ is strong. Let’s keep going! Happy weekend. 🤍. #UKPolitics #ReformUK #OpinionPolls #TacticalVoting

REFORM TAX “DODGERS” TICE “AVOIDS” £600,000 IN TAX and says that voters should be grateful !!!!! The Sunday Times has reported that Richard Tice used a complex set up to avoid nearly £600,000 in corporation tax. Offshore vehicles. Trust structures. A rare tax status. Layers upon layers, all designed to keep more money away from the public purse. And this is the same crowd telling you they are the “patriots” here to take back control of our money. Get their hands on the public purse and rob it blind more like!!! Then there’s Isabel Oakeshott, Tice’s partner, posh girl who went to the same private school as King Charles and Prince Philip. Oakeshott has said she moved to Dubai after Labour’s VAT policy on private school fees!!! Of course she did. Nothing at all to do with the fact that Dubai is a Zero tax haven!! And Tice says he splits his time between UK and Dubai!!! We weren’t born yesterday We see right through the Reformer scam! And we have seen this pattern before. Nadhim Zahawi, Reform’s new player. Zahawi was the TORY Chancellor who denied he was under investigation for £5m in avoided tax by HMRC. When questioned by journalists about the HMRC investigation, he called it a smear campaign. Then it was proven that he had been forced to pay just under £5 million in tax to HMRC and described it as a “careless mistake”. Rishi Sunak was forced to sack him 😡 Zahawi wasn’t careless at all Tice Zahawi Oakeshott This is what Reform looks like up close. Privately educated Tax avoiders catering to the super rich Not anti establishment. Not for ordinary people. Just wealthy insiders who know exactly how to game the system, while the rest of us pay up.

FARAGE AND TORY KWARTENG IN BUSINESS TOGETHER I have learned that Nigel Farage has invested £215,000 in Stack BTC, a bitcoin treasury business chaired by THE MAN WHO CRASHED THE ECONOMY former chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng. Yes, that Kwasi Kwarteng. The one forever linked to Liz Truss’s mini budget chaos. So please, someone explain to me how Farage is anything other than a complete and utter charlatan. And while he plays the “man of the people” routine, he is using his supporters as a ladder to power. IF Farage ever gets a grip on power, it is ordinary families who will pay an enormous price, while the insiders and donors reap even more billions than they did under the disgustingly corrupted Tories. We need tougher rules on money, influence, and transparency in politics. Full stop. What do you think?! 🤔 #UKPolitics #NigelFarage #ReformUK #Transparency
