What is happening in the UK media is unhealthy and, frankly, a bit sinister. There is a pack of journalists hell bent on taking down Labour‘s women ministers. Someone is paying good money and devoting resources to trawling through every bit of their private lives. I’m sick of it.

Look at this graph, Reform almost all of them went to Private School. If you are Working Class and you vote for Reform, you are a traitor, to yourself. Or as we call them, a bloody fool.

@UKLabour promised to protect & preserve #Greenbelt , now they’re on a mission to destroy it. Hertfordshire alone is seeing a tsunami of planning applications over its green belt because of the “grey belt” definition. Is this a disused car park or petrol station? @CHinchliffMP

#SarahPochin represents a party with 5 MPs out of 650, #Reform. Less than 1% of all MPs and yet they are NEVER off our screens. She wants to talk about over representation on our TV screens, let’s start there.

Why is Dorries, an abject failure from the last Tory govt, on Question Time tonight? And why is she being described as a Daily Mail journalist? She’s a Reform politician who writes occasionally. Is it so the BBC don’t have to count her as yet another Reform representative?
