Re: Reform UK's chronicles
Point of Information
Since Farage last voted in the House of Commons on the 18th March 2026, there have been 390 votes in the House.
He doesn't vote in the House for months on end, he doesn't hold Constituency Surgeries - he does know this is supposed to be his main job, doesn't he?

I guess that's a reference to the surname Farage being ultimately of Arabic origins?

Looks like a goat's scrotum (with knobs on).

.... one or two closer than you may realise!
With net migration falling, soon ALL eyes will be on the small boats and the public's anger at the unfairness of the migrants' treatment will boil over.
Reform UK needs to have a doable plan for dealing with this. It will need to be on sure legal ground, have a legislation plan that sorts out the ECHR and the UNHCR via sensible derogations. They also need to legislate so that the human rights lawyers cannot act for the illegal migrants under legal aid (taxpayer money).
Reform UK will also need a viable economic recover plan - one that will give confidence to lenders for the gap that needs to be closed. That recovery plan must include re-industrialisation and must slow down or abolish Net-Zero so that power becomes affordable.
In other words, they need me, Papa and Carth to advise them!

Re: Reform UK's chronicles
I told em (the Gov. ) years ago but they never answered . . and I definitely put a stamp on the letter
I'm afraid that if I send another there may well be quite a few hurty words in it, and I'd hate to make a grown man cry

I'm not sure they would take unsolicited advice from a loyal Conservative voter like you. But you could pass the baton to Old Boy who's defected to Reform.
