It is my greatest honour and privilege to be Dudley's Reform UK candidate in this General Election. Come out and vote for me on Thursday 4th July, and let's get our country back. 🇬🇧

We didn't need them to admit it. It is obviously so in its intrinsic nature!

🚨 COUNCIL TAX PROTESTS & THE UPCOMING LOCAL ELECTIONS 🚨 I’ve seen posts circulating about cancelling council tax payments in response to local elections being scrapped in some areas. While I completely understand the frustration, refusing to pay council tax carries serious legal consequences, including fines, enforcement action, and even court proceedings. Reform UK stands for challenging the system through lawful and democratic means, not actions that could put people at risk. To clear up any confusion: ✅ Dudley Council is already a unitary authority. It is not affected by the proposed mergers of district and county councils. ✅ Dudley was never scheduled to have elections this year. Last year was the “all-out” election, meaning all councillors were elected at once. This year was always planned as a break year, with elections resuming in 2026. ✅ The real issue is elsewhere, where district councils are being scrapped, and local democracy is being eroded without public consent. If you're looking for a productive way to push back against these attacks on democracy, I encourage you to visit This campaign is fighting for our democratic rights through legal and organised action, rather than tactics that could backfire on the very people making a stand. ➡️ Hitting the government in the pocket may seem like a strong statement, but it’s only effective if it doesn’t come back to hurt ordinary people. Reform UK will continue fighting for genuine democratic accountability - but we must do it the right way. #LetThePeopleVote #ReformUK #DemocracyMatters #Dudley #DefendOurVotes

The creature in the picture is a parasite called Cymothoa exigua. It enters the fish through the gills, attaches itself to the tongue, and eventually replaces it. From that point on, the parasite feeds on any food the fish consumes. As the parasite takes over, the fish becomes little more than a host - sustaining and nourishing the invader until it eventually dies of starvation. Once its host perishes, the parasite moves on to find a new victim. Am I the only one drawing parallels to our relationship with the Labour Government?

Some council elections are going ahead this May despite the devolution plans. Staffordshire was not in doubt and is going ahead. Across the county, we are hoping you will come to help us this spring!

@JoStevensLabour @UKLabour @CardiffEastLab I'm self-employed, so can you give me a discount on Class 4 NI contributions instead, so I don't have to fund Labour's ideas?

President Trump and the DOGE admin are cutting USAID - now you know why the mainstream media are so visceral against MAGA.

Have a butchers at this soppy nonsense from the Red Cross 👇 They're coming here because they get a ridiculous amount of freebies and put first infront of British folk. The reason boats aren't turned back is not because it's impossible, but because the government lacks the political will to do it. 1️⃣ International Law Excuses – The UK government hides behind legal frameworks like the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and maritime laws, claiming they can’t turn boats around once in British waters. But Australia successfully implemented "turn-back" policies, proving it can be done if a government is determined. 2️⃣ Weak Leadership – The Conservatives had been in power for 14 years and promised to stop the boats, yet crossings increased, not decreased. Labour aren't even pretending to try; "smashing the gangs" is a myth. Reform UK will take decisive action and implement immediate deterrents. 3️⃣ France’s Complicity – The UK has handed billions to France to stop the boats, yet migrants still launch from French beaches without resistance. France is in contravention of article 98 of the 1982 UN Convention of Law at Sea in this regard. Instead of wasting taxpayer money, we need a policy of zero tolerance - returning boats immediately to France and making it clear that illegal crossings will not lead to UK residency. Reform UK’s solution? ✅ Turn the boats back immediately - no hotel stays, no processing, no loopholes. ✅ Withdraw from the ECHR, so foreign courts can’t block removals. ✅ Set up offshore processing, like Australia, to end the incentive for illegal entry. ✅ Deport all illegal arrivals quickly, instead of putting them in taxpayer-funded hotels. I'd even be tempted to put Trump-style trade tariffs on countries aiding and abetting this fiasco. The truth is, stopping the boats requires political courage - something neither the Tories nor Labour have. Reform UK does.

OFGEM set to raise energy prices cap in April. There's a simple answer to this, and it is: 1) Use domestic oil and gas to reduce reliance on imported fuel, which has geo-political volatility. 2) Take the strangehold of green levies and net zero regulations off suppliers.

@man_sandra86082 I'm with you on that - I like to buy food in paper bags from local butchers and grocers. Everything is wrapped in plastics these days and it's no good!

PlayStations for boat migrants, whilst your council tax is jacked up. Figure that one out! Every single one of these councillors and council leaders perpetuating this madness need to be removed from office in May - that's if you are allowed to have a vote in your area this year, that is!

Why on Earth would you, the public, want a pact with the party that did such a terrible job? You'd end up with internationalist Tory wets fillibustering Reform's plans!

These Tory MPs backbiting at Starmer over the vocal coach just shows the absurdity of the whole Covid saga. The rules were ridiculously draconian - arguably the greatest act of tyranny the British state has ever enacted on its citizens, effectively creating a police state where we saw officers break into people's houses after their neighbours dobbed them in. The state made people prove their vaccine status (which even by Chris Whitty saying at the time did not stop transmission) to participate in basic liberties or in many cases go to work, thus co-ercing people to take a medical procedure that was an unknown quantity in terms of safety and real world effectiveness - and now the perpetrators of this heavy handed madness now want to use Covid measures as an attack dog on their opponents who wanted the measures to be harder and for longer, after not following the rules themselves whilst the public had to go majorly without. All we can do is sit back and eat popcorn, for this is the UniParty circus show.
