Nigel could have stayed retired. Instead he came back, won Clacton in 2024, and put himself permanently in the line of fire.
The threats were already relentless. Becoming an MP made them worse. His home was attacked. State protection was cut to a level his team judged inadequate. Private security costs millions a year for life. Then came the attacks from inside—Rupert and others briefing against him while still in the party. Trust evaporates when you no longer know who stands with you.
Last year Nigel’s rhetoric softened, people noticed and Reform lost support - But it softened as Nigel went into self protection mode. He never had a change of heart. It was a man carrying the weight of constant death threats, media framing of everything he said as “far right” or “inciting violence,” and the knowledge that some of the worst blows came from former allies.
Then, in July, Ann Widdecombe was murdered in a targeted attack at her home. A friend. A colleague. The suspect had previously reconnoitred Nigel’s own house. For Nigel it wasn’t only the loss of someone he loved, it was the final proof that the danger is real and lethal.
What does he gain by staying? Nothing a comfortable retirement couldn’t give him. Nigel stays because he cares about the country and the people who put him there. The “smiley Nigel” you saw on GB News is the one the public has always known. The quieter, more guarded version is the one who has paid the price. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c3vy…

I have just received information on a postie ripping up a Reform newspaper and putting it in the bin! This is a criminal offence!
Make him famous!

Will Tory chairman Kevin Hollinrake be campaigning alongside Nigel Farage or Andy Burnham in a future mooted “rejoin referendum?”
Let’s check the tape…
Same old Tories.

🚨Labour are undercutting British wages again.
They’re making it cheaper to hire foreign workers.
Labour will CUT occupational salary thresholds for foreign workers from the median to the 25th percentile.
Translation: businesses can import cheap foreign labour for far less than the typical Brit in that job earns.
All while millions of Brits are unemployed, young people struggle, and the welfare bill is expected to balloon to £451 BILLION.
Reform will end this madness.

The Spectator reports that the terrible Sayeeda Warsi is frontrunner for Labour’s "anti-Muslim hostility" tsar.
Sayeeda previously blamed Israel defending itself for Houthi terrorists attacking cargo ships.
She has attempted to downplay the link between race and religion in the Pakistani rape gangs. Even accusing others of whipping of "hate."
She supported the “coconut” slur being used against other ethnic minorities.
In 2006, she welcomed the election of Hamas.
We don’t need a tsar at all and certainly not one who is such a naive and toxic individual.

You haven’t mentioned Tommy in over a year, but suddenly you’re praising his supposed massive contribution to your RGI? Why now and why wasn’t his involvement highlighted when the findings came out? And what exactly did he contribute?
You also claim you weren’t allowed to praise Tommy while in Reform.. but you spoke publicly about him TWICE! More than you’ve spoken about him since leaving Reform!
In Feb 2025.. you AND Nigel defended Tommy’s treatment in prison. Nigel literally said..
“He shouldn’t be in solitary confinement. I hear he’s in very bad conditions and that’s not right.”
You also said you’d contact the MOJ about Tommy’s treatment. Did you? Can you show any correspondence showing that you actually followed through? 🤷🏻♀️
Your sudden enthusiasm for Tommy looks politically convenient.. as does much of what you do, imo.
Andd yesterday Nigel made it clear he doesn’t have an issue with people holding their own opinions or supporting Tommy. He also said the conduct behind Tommy’s conviction was “very wrong, very wrong indeed.”
So, real question.. why are you and others trying to twist his words?
I have always respected Tommy Robinson for his work on the rape gangs - he gave evidence to our inquiry, and it was remarkable to hear his level of knowledge. It contributed massively to our findings.
Tommy was fair and balanced. I learnt a lot.
He has not been treated fairly by our establishment for many years, and today is the latest example of that.
To be honest, I believe it is a disgrace.
He was right on the rape gangs. The state was wrong.
They want to vilify him for that.
The media, the justice system, Labour, the Tories, Farage. It was made very clear to me when I was in Reform that I was not to praise Tommy Robinson publicly. I did regardless.
The entire establishment is against him.
My view is this - he has done more than any politician to uncover the rape gangs, and for that I thank him.

Tommy isn’t even mentioned in the RGI acknowledgements and the bits where he is mentioned are about stuff he’d already made public like his arrest back in 2018.
I can’t find anything in the report saying he actually gave evidence or helped with the inquiry.
So what exactly was Tommy’s massive contribution? What evidence did he give specifically to your inquiry?

🇬🇧 The OBR just dropped 200 pages on Healey's first Budget.
I read it so you don't have to.
Tax is at a record 37.9% of GDP by 2027-28, past the old high of 37.2%.
Then it climbs every single year to 38.6%.
Frozen thresholds are doing way too much to workers since they get a pay rise, hand more of it over.
1.8x the national minimum wage now classes you as a higher tax rate payer - what the fuck?
Borrowing @ £133bn this year. In March they said £115bn. Seven months later it's £18bn worse. And it's higher than March in every year of the forecast because neither the OBR nor treasury has a clue what they’re doing.
Debt interest at £39bn in 2019-20.
£109bn last year 😩
£160bn by 2031-32 😩😩£15bn of this year's bill is extra bc inflation's pushing up index linked gilts, and we know the uk has a structural inflation problem, partly due to the relationship between treasury and BoE.
Headroom is £14.5bn, down from £21.7bn at the last Budget.
Keep the fuel duty freeze going and it's £10.2bn.
The OBR gives Healey a 56% chance of hitting his OWN FUCKING rule.
Debt will peak at 97.3% of GDP, still 95.6% in 2031-32. Five years and it barely moves which is completely against his fiscal demands.
How it affects you?
Growth 1% next year with gdp per capita basically the same as it has been since 2019
Inflation 3.4% when March said 2%.
Zero real pay growth in 2027.
Living standards in 2030-31?
Just 2% above pre-pandemic.
But don't worry. You're getting a £100 council tax rebate.
Jesus Christ.

It’s really hard to get me down. I’m definitely a “look on the bright side of life” or “it’ll all work out” type of person.
But this Budget has genuinely left me feeling depressed. 😔
It’s not in the interests of ordinary British people. It’s not a pathway to turning this country around. It’s just more of the same. More taxes, more pressure on working people, more money being taken out of our pockets, and absolutely no real sense of hope for the future.
Where’s the light at the end of the tunnel for people who are already struggling?
I love this country, and I genuinely believe we can turn things around.. That’s why we need to rally together behind Reform and get Labour out and get as away as we can from the establishment.
If you threw the whole of Elon Musks fortune 'over there' it wouldn't solve the world's issues and they would still come 'over here'.
My views on intentional spending are well known and long established.
International development spending makes people ‘over there’ safer and more prosperous.
That, in turn, means that problems from ‘over there’ don’t come ‘over here’.
It is the other side of the coin from defence. It’s about our national security and it’s spent in our national interest.

How true…
THE LABOUR TAX POEM
Tax his land, Tax his bed, Tax the table at which he's fed.
Tax his tractor, Tax his mule, Teach him taxes are the rule.
Tax his work, Tax his pay, He works for peanuts anyway!
Tax his cow, Tax his goat, Tax his pants, Tax his coat. Tax his ties, Tax his shirt, Tax his work, Tax his dirt.
Tax his tobacco, Tax his drink, Tax him if he tries to think.
Tax his cigars, Tax his beers, If he cries tax his tears.
Tax his car, Tax his gas, Find other ways to tax his ass.
Tax all he has, Then let him know, That you won't be done till he has no dough.
When he screams and hollers, Then tax him some more, Tax him till he's good and sore.
Then tax his coffin, Tax his grave, Tax the sod in which he's laid.
Put these words Upon his tomb, 'Taxes drove me to my doom...'
When he's gone, Do not relax, Its time to apply the inheritance tax.
Where's yours then?
The right-wing wonks are lauding Reform's alternative
Any idiot can rant on X.
What do we really need? A budget for roofers, midwives, electricians, plumbers, bricklayers, mechanics, farmers, fishermen, hairdressers, market traders, lorry drivers, postmen, factory workers, nurses, engineers, soldiers, carers, teachers, bin men, shopkeepers, entrepreneurs, pub landlords, the self-employed and more.
For the people who keep our economy running, who keep our country going.
Not the indolent, not the scroungers, not the foreigners.
But the workers. The ones getting up at 5.30am, struggling to get the kids ready for school on time. Constantly thinking, worrying, stressing. Putting in the hours to provide for their family.
Sometimes moaning, but always doing. Always working. Always trying. The real working class.
That's who I'm backing, and that's who Restore Britain is backing.

What’s become abundantly clear today is that the stubborn, useless Tories picked the wrong leader.
Robert Jenrick is superior in every way to Badenoch. She is wooden, boring she has minimal organic traction online.
Jenrick gets better everyday.
He’s a great Reform asset.
He wouldn't have been able to respond in the house.
Instead, the press conference response knocked the socks off opponents.
But you wouldn't report on that. 'Attendance' is not the story here.

These are the stats John Healey doesn’t want you to read.
Unemployment will rise to 5% in 2027.
The tax burden is going up AGAIN to the highest since WW2.
By 2031 we’ll be spending £160bn/year on debt interest alone – up £36bn/year.
Borrowing forecasts for the next 5 years have risen £65bn since March.
Households will be worse off in every single year of the five-year forecast than they were in March.
It’ll take until 2029 to get back to 2019 levels of prosperity.
Growth will be abysmal. GDP per capita grows less than 1% in 2027. It’ll peak at less than 2% per year, despite the AI revolution.
The national debt will stay above 95% of GDP.
We are on a fiscal knife-edge. Britain is Broke. Britain needs Reform.
