🚨 THREAD: How Conservative's CCHQ-aligned outrage mills and X’s algorithm are farming @ReformUK supporters for cash and reach. If you follow @GBPolitcs or @PolitlcsUK, you are being played. These student aggregator accounts use trick handles (@GBPolitcs and @PolitlcsUK) to run a massive engagement trap on our movement. Sky News's data investigation "The X Effect" proved that X's algorithm is built to aggressively boost outrage, conflict, and velocity across UK timelines (Link at the end of thread 👇). Here is how unaccredited accounts exploit that algorithm against Reform, and how we break the trap 👇 (1/3)

Under 14 years of Conservative rule, local authority SEND deficits ballooned past £3 billion while councils were forced into emergency "safety valve" bailouts. Now Labour steps in and pulls the exact same trick: announcing a headline 3.5% teacher pay rise to buy off unions, only to leave school core budgets short-changed—forcing headteachers to cut special needs assistants to cover the bill. The Uniparty formula never changes: The Tories (2010–2024): Starved high-needs funding, created a multi-billion-pound SEND crisis, and routinely dumped unfunded pay awards onto school balance sheets. Labour (2026): Promised "fully funded" education, but leaves schools in the red while vulnerable special-needs children bear the brunt of workforce cuts. Both parties use public sector pay deals for cheap headlines while forcing state schools to choose between paying teachers and supporting disabled kids. Neither party is fit to manage a school budget, let alone the nation’s.
Labour failed to be upfront with schools about fully funding pay rises. Their spin is unravelling - special schools have been cancelled, the high needs block has been frozen, a £2bn blackhole remains, schools are in the red, & now they are being left with difficult choices to cut SEND staff. Labour can put this right in the budget next week.

Are they completely out of their minds? The pharmacy lobby wants to scrap "unfair" prescription charges in England, demanding the taxpayer blow another £600 million black hole in an NHS budget that is already bankrupting the country. Read below to see exactly how both the Tories and Labour turned the NHS into a financial black hole while actively punishing the only people left funding it. Here is the statistical reality Westminster refuses to admit: 90% of all prescriptions in England are ALREADY FREE. Out of 1.1 billion items dispensed every year, 9 in 10 cost the patient exactly £0. Who pays nothing? Over-60s claim 43% of all free items. Medical exemptions cover 31%. Universal Credit and income support cover 7%. Students and under-16s take 6%. Who actually pays? The £9.90 charge is paid by just 5% to 10% of patients—almost exclusively working-age adults who earn a living and actually pay net tax. Now look at what the working public is paying to keep this collapsing monopoly afloat: The Tory Disaster (2020 & 2024): In 2020, the Conservatives pumped a staggering £5.1 billion per week (£269bn) into health spending and got us locked down. By the time they left office in 2024, they were burning through £3.6 billion a week (£187bn NHS budget) while handing us a record 7.6 million-strong waiting list. The Labour Continuation (2026): Labour steps in, pushes the weekly Department of Health budget past £4.1 billion a week (£217bn annually), and somehow services are worse. Remember the 2016 Brexit bus promising £350 million a week for the NHS? We are now throwing over TEN TIMES that amount into the system every single week. Scrapping the last shred of user revenue so working taxpayers—the only demographic still paying—can subsidize everyone else is peak Uniparty economic suicide. Reform UK will end the bureaucratic bloat, introduce structural health reform, and stop treating the working class like an ATM.

The BBC suddenly noticing that Britain’s Arctic defenses are wide open isn't investigative journalism—it’s legacy media panic management. For two decades, mainstream news outlets played cheerleader for establishment MPs, hiding the reality that Tory defense cuts and Labour apathy left our Armed Forces hollowed out. But over the last two years, the British electorate moved sharply right, rejected the Uniparty narrative, and started getting the truth elsewhere. With ratings plummeting and viewer trust at historic lows, the BBC has finally realized that playing lip service to defense contractors doesn't work when the public can see our subsea cables and High North sea lanes left completely undefended. Running scary headlines now doesn't erase years of media protection for the political class. We don't need desperate legacy media PR—we need sovereign military strength. Reform UK will rebuild the Royal Navy and put proper defense back at the core of government. @reformparty_uk @DefenceHQ @UKLabour @Conservatives

You're on the march, Rupert's on the march... marching relentlessly toward third place in a bookie's fantasy league while handing Labour a free win. Oops.
Restore Britain is on the march.

Your £50 buying half a tank of fuel isn't an accident of global markets—it's the exact price tag of Westminster's Net Zero suicide pact. Below is the step-by-step breakdown of how the Uniparty bankrupted our energy grid, and why a Tory comeback changes nothing. The Tory Scenario (14 Years of Self-Inflicted Sabotage): The Conservatives kicked off the collapse by closing the Rough gas storage facility in 2017, leaving Britain with a pathetic 9 days of national gas reserves (compared to Germany’s 89 days). In 2022, they slapped a 35% "Energy Profits Levy" on North Sea producers (pushing the total tax rate to 75%), utterly killing domestic investment. Instead of securing sovereign gas fields, they forced Britain to rely on volatile global spot markets and expensive foreign LNG tankers carrying 3x the supply-chain carbon footprint of North Sea gas. The Labour Scenario (Accelerated Destruction): Labour stepped in and immediately made it worse. Ed Miliband banned all new North Sea drilling licenses and bumped the windfall tax to a crushing 78% while stripping away capital investment allowances. The result? TotalEnergies, Shell, and North Sea operators are pulling out capital, putting 35,000 British jobs at risk. Labour's plan is to import dirty foreign gas on diesel-powered tankers from Qatar and the US at inflated spot prices—guaranteeing sky-high fuel, heating, and manufacturing costs for decades. The Tory Future Forecast (More Bait-and-Switch): And what happens if the Conservatives somehow shamble back into power next time? Expect the exact same bait-and-switch. A future Tory government will run on glossy campaign brochures promising to "unleash British energy," only to immediately surrender to Whitehall mandates, protect the Climate Change Act, and continue pouring billions in taxpayer subsidies into foreign-owned green conglomerates. They will maintain eye-watering tax burdens to cover state inefficiency, keep us hooked on foreign gas imports, and call it "prudent management." The Uniparty cycle is a dead end—Reform UK is the only movement prepared to tear up the Net Zero suicide pact and make Britain energy independent again.

Labour's inflation has sent fuel prices rocketing. Reform UK will control inflation and scrap Labour's fuel duty increase, keeping your bills down.

Calling this "NEW" is standard BBC protection-racket theater. The Conservatives and Labour spent 40 years treating North Sea oil as a petty cash drawer for short-term political spending instead of building a sovereign wealth fund like Norway. Now, Labour sets up a "wealth fund" for an industry they are actively trying to shut down, and the BBC runs interference to make it look like a fresh discovery.
NEW Britain’s missing sovereign wealth fund… Treasury officials have modelled that had the UK done what Norway did with North Sea revenues, there would be a £1 trillion fund… As Chancellor sets up Energy Wealth Fund, a look at the long historical argument about where the oil windfall went, including from interviews with those who have run Norways $2.4 trillion fund, now the biggest in the world, filled from the proceeds of the same North Sea. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cm4g…

Imagine popping champagne because your polling numbers match a Green Party led by Zack Polanski—a party currently tearing itself apart over radical motions, tax queries, and fringe eco-hysteria. In a First Past the Post system, 8% doesn't build a national movement capable of taking down the state apparatus; it acts as a spoiler metric that guarantees Westminster stays broken. Splitting the right to tie with political clowns isn't strategy, Rupert—it's electoral self-sabotage.
Excellent news to start the day - a big MRP poll from Electoral Calculus/Find Out Now with over 10,000 respondents has Restore Britain matching the Greens on a record 8%. That number hits 10% for us under a PR scenario. Next aim - get ahead of the Lib Dems. Superb progress.

The Uniparty prison policy is a masterclass in performative comedy. At CPC26, the Conservatives unveiled shiny graphics promising "50,000 new prison places". This is from the exact same party that promised 20,000 places in 2019, built only a fraction, oversaw a catastrophic capacity collapse, and pioneered early release schemes. Now, Labour—currently releasing violent offenders at 40% of their sentence to clear cell space—announces that criminals who skip court will be "punished" with solitary confinement. Here is the reality of British prisons: under Prison Rule 45, vulnerable and notorious offenders routinely request voluntary segregation. In a overcrowded estate where prisoners are crammed two to a cell with gang violence, solitary confinement isn't a terrifying penalty—it’s a private room upgrade. The Tories destroyed prison capacity over 14 years, and Labour's big deterrent is threatening criminals with quiet time in a single cell. Neither party can protect the public. Reform UK will build real prison capacity, end early release gimmicks, and deliver actual justice. @Conservatives @LabourParty @MoJGovUK @reformparty_uk

Ah, the UK City of Culture award. That magical quadrennial Westminster tradition where the political class slaps a taxpayer-funded lanyard on a struggling town, hosts a contemporary dance routine in the high street, and pretends decades of structural decay have been cured. Today (October 22, 2026), the government announced the final shortlist for 2029: Blackpool, Milton Keynes, Sheffield, and Wrexham. Since the award's inception, it has been handed out every four years: Derry-Londonderry (2013), Hull (2017), Coventry (2021), and Bradford (2025). If you’re wondering which city has won it the most—none of them. It rotates every four years because it’s a temporary PR band-aid, not a long-term solution. But here is the detailed reality the Uniparty refuses to acknowledge. While politicians pat themselves on the back for regional arts grants, the traditional average Brit is living with the consequences of unprecedented demographic transformation. Since 2000, gross migration (legal and illegal) has added upwards of 20 million arrivals into the UK. You cannot paper over that mathematical reality with a local culture festival. Rapid, large-scale population expansion has fundamentally altered local communities, pushing legacy infrastructure to the breaking point. A "City of Culture" plaque does not build the hundreds of thousands of homes required to stabilize the housing market. It doesn't shorten the 8 AM scramble for a GP appointment, and it doesn't fix the total collapse of local public services. Westminster’s solution to communities buckling under 25 years of mass demographic shifts is to hand them an arts grant and tell them to enjoy the poetry reading.

Green councillors encouraging French-style riots on British streets is peak leftist brainrot. It’s almost impressive how the Greens manage to make Labour look like responsible adults by comparison, driving terrified voters right into the Uniparty trap. Idiot's.

Over 97% of Britain’s internet traffic and trillions in daily financial transfers rely on Atlantic subsea cables, yet both parties spent decades looking the other way: The Tory Negligence: In 2017, Rishi Sunak co-authored a Policy Exchange report explicitly warning that UK subsea cables were "inherently vulnerable" to Russian hybrid sabotage. The Tories sat on that warning for 7 full years—failing to establish Cable Protection Zones, buying zero sovereign cable repair ships, and gutting the Royal Navy down to a threadbare 15 surface combatants. The Labour Farce: Parliamentary reports (JCNSS) recently slammed the government as "too timid," pointing out that our national infrastructure is still governed by the Submarine Telegraph Act of 1885—a Victorian statute carrying a paltry £1,000 fine. Labour Telecoms Minister Ian Murray’s big response isn't sending warships—it’s updating 140-year-old court sentencing tweaks. Russian spy ships dragging anchors or deploying underwater submersibles don't care about updated UK sentencing guidelines. Reform UK will scrap the legalistic coping mechanisms, rebuild naval fleet tonnage, enforce Cable Protection Zones, and deploy hard power to protect British waters.

Over 14 years, the Conservatives handed out over £3.4 billion in government contracts to Fujitsu—even after the Horizon scandal—and flushed £1.3 billion down the drain on Capita’s disastrous Army recruitment IT software, which missed recruitment targets by over 30% year after year. Yet despite showering billions on consultancy cronies and legacy outsourcers, they left Britain’s critical national cyber infrastructure running on digital sticky tape and prayer. The Tories couldn't secure our borders, couldn't secure Army recruitment, and couldn't even secure basic government web networks. Never trust a Conservative with national security, public funds, or the British state ever again. They didn't digitize Britain—they privatized public money and left the front door unlocked. @reformparty_uk

John Healey conveniently forgets that UK oil production hit its absolute historical peak under Labour between 1997 and 2010 (over 4.5 million barrels a day). Labour sat in power for 13 years with a massive majority, pulled hundreds of billions in North Sea tax receipts, and saved exactly zero pounds in a sovereign wealth fund. Instead, Gordon Brown spent the windfall plugging structural deficits, raiding private pensions, and dumping 401 tonnes of gold at bottom-dollar prices. Pining for a fund now while actively banning new North Sea licenses is laughable hypocrisy. @JohnHealey_MP @LabourParty @reformparty_uk
‘We'd have a British sovereign wealth fund now that will be worth probably a trillion pounds’ Chancellor @JohnHealey_MP suggests what Britain could have gained if it had set up an energy wealth fund like Norway’s back in the 1980s #Peston

Oh look, a Lib Dem lecturing the country on media ethics. Remind us, Danny—isn't your party’s primary election tactic printing fake local newspapers to trick elderly voters? Reporting undercover TV operatives who tampered with postal votes to the police isn't "suppressing the press", it’s enforcing the law. Keep crying over ITV, we know it hurts watching a real party take your votes.
This shows what a Reform UK government would look like. No more freedom of the press. No scrutiny. With a party mired in dodgy finances and foreign crypto donations, investigative journalism has never been so important.

Imagine the emergency panels, 24-hour broadcast banners, and front-page outrage if a Reform candidate were caught on tape pricing up hitmen. Because it’s a Tory candidate, ITV, BBC, and Channel 4 suddenly suffer from selective blindness. Legacy broadcasters aren't running news organizations—they are operating a public relations firm for the Westminster status quo.
Here we have a Tory candidate offering to hire a hitman to *kill someone*. Any danger @itvnews @bbcpolitics @channel4news report on this? Or will they reveal themselves to be lapdogs for the uniparty?

Danny Kruger is doing the single most important structural job in Reform right now. He killed the establishment’s smear campaign by explicitly stating national identity isn't about ethnicity—it’s about shared allegiance to a country built on Christian values. But his real value is his plan for the civil service: slashing £5.2 billion in bureaucratic waste, dismantling the Cabinet Office protection racket, and restoring direct ministerial authority over civil servants. You cannot execute mass deportations or fix Britain with a hostile civil service running interference. Danny is making sure Reform can actually enforce the law the second we take office.
What unites us? Not ethnicity. A common commitment to the country built by former generations. And the foundation of this building - in which people of all faiths can live - is Christianity.

Andrew Rosindell exposes the exact mechanism of institutional self-preservation. Over centuries, the political class has slowly converted an ancient upper chamber into a private patronage cartel. Over 4.1 million citizens voted Reform UK, making it the third-largest party by popular mandate, yet legacy parties hoard hundreds of red benches to insulate Whitehall from democratic change. The Lib Dems holding 80 peers on fewer votes isn't an accident—it's a deliberate ideological firewall designed to lock millions of voters out of legislative scrutiny.
How can Reform UK have zero members of the House of Lords when the Liberal Democrats have 80, with fewer votes at the last General Election! This isn't fair and it's not representative!

Jacob Rees-Mogg literally served as Cabinet Minister for Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy, yet now sits in a studio acting like a surprised tourist discovering North Sea gas reserves for the first time. You spent 14 years in power bowing to Net Zero dogma, imposing windfall taxes on domestic producers, and delaying drill licenses. Watching washed-up Tories run to television to preach the exact policies they refused to deliver in government is breathtaking hypocrisy.
'We have huge natural resources...we are sitting on trillions of cubic feet of cheap gas.' @Jacob_Rees_Mogg discusses the Government's decision to allow drilling in the Jackdaw gas field, and says cheap energy must now be a top priority.

Infiltration by licensed broadcasters to sabotage physical leafleting in tight wards is only one half of the scandal. The other half is a postal voting system practically custom-built for demographic block voting, clan control, and household vote harvesting. When media companies actively suppress opposition campaign mailouts while local seat outcomes are dictated by non-integrated demographic voting blocks, British elections stop being free and fair. Sacking TV executives is a baseline—we need radical electoral overhaul and the total abolition of routine postal voting.
When Reform's letters to postal voters in Portsmouth were ready to go out, two undercover ITV reporters were personally responsible for almost two hundred of them in the ward of Drayton and Farlington. Reform lost Drayton and Farlington by 24 votes. The same two men were responsible for delivering leaflets to half the ward of Baffins. Reform lost Baffins by 85 votes. These were men whose purpose was to infiltrate Reform UK and damage it. In two wards decided by a few dozen votes, we believe there are reasonable grounds to conclude that ITV altered the result of British elections. There is no precedent for this. It is certainly not journalism. We believe it to be criminal. We will hold ITV and its activists to account.

Press freedom means holding power to account, not giving broadcast executives a free pass to deploy undercover actors, fake military backgrounds, and breach criminal law. Watching establishment columnists rush to shield TV producers from legal scrutiny while playing the press freedom martyr is irony in it's finest form.
Wrote about this a few weeks ago. Reform now represent the biggest threat to British press freedom since Ed Miliband was driving Leveson.
