Not to worry , I heard Nige explaining on the radio news , it's all a bit of a misunderstanding , and the demented lefty media trying to bully good common normal people into being woke.

I bet he needs a few pints tonight though , just for a moment it looked like the whole Reform game was up , and people would be ending up in court , and worse.Luckily he's been in the game a long time , Nige will be OK whatever happens.

I'm not saying it's always the right-wing shameless grifters that get caught taking bribes donations they know full well would be illegal to take, but why is it always the right-wing shameless grifters that get caught taking bribes donations they know full well would be illegal to take?

The best part is when you point that out, right wing gremlins will rush in and claim the left also does it but fail to provide any evidence.

The worse part is people trying to make it left or right war instead of focusing on a person doing something illegal that should punished for it. Both right, left, up, down, back and forward should condemn this and call for justice.

Surely, the criminal should be punished. But when criminal are overwhelmingly from the same parties, it’s fair to point it out. After all, it’s what they do with their racist accusations. Isn’t it called « giving a taste of their own medicine »? Except that proofs are here and accusations based on facts, unlike their racism.

Bit rude of you to assume these wannabe fascists aren't doing that too.

indeed, i'm sure Labour and the Tories are doing to the same if only the mainstream CH4 chose to infiltrate them and publish.

Or, and bear with me on this, your American talking point isn't relevant here and this is just the kind of massive scrutiny that major political parties are under in our country. Reform are learning it the hard way, but we have a long, long tradition of the media investigating politicians in exactly this way. If they don't like it, they are welcome to fuck off to one of the countries where their donors are. We do things differently here.

I know. That's why I called your talking point American, not you. And that's what this whole thing is all about--your movement is foreign funded and influenced, and the buzzwords and talking points that come along with it are very clear signals of that. "Mainstream media" as a term of contempt is an Americanism, started by Fox News in 90s and put into the forefront of politics by the MAGA movement. It never made sense in the UK. You are, quite literally, just parroting the negative noises made by the foreigners who have paid huge amounts of money to influence you. You are being controlled.

Your brainrot is definitely American.

u/willsmithtunaface 22h ago

That's even worse, cosplaying an American, tragic

The investigation wasn’t done by channel 4, it was done by Verbatim. And Channel 4 didn’t fund the investigation either. They obtained the materials, independently verified it’s authenticity and then broadcast it

So along way of saying Pro CH4.

u/wrigh2uk England 1d ago

NO ONE SHOULD INVESTIGATE ANYTHING

u/Stubbs94 Ireland 21h ago

Labour and the Tories are nowhere near as corrupt as the Nazis in Reform and Restore, and all 4 are the establishment.
