Starmer March 2023 - we will freeze Council Tax were we to be in government - Council Tax has gone up. Labour party manifesto - we will recruit 6500 more teachers, the total number of teachers in the state sector has gone down since Labour came to power . We will set up GB energy to cut bills - bills have increased. Labour fooled enough people but not the sensible ones that voted REFORM
Fibby Farage can't open his mouth without lying. Remember the Brexit bus? I do. This particular fascist monster can keep his ideas about abortion reform and privatising the NHS to himself. As well as pretending to be a 'man of the people' (pffffft!), whilst pocketing a huge wage and added bonuses. All whilst ignoring his constituency. Hey Nige, do you even know where Clacton is?
Remember these whoppers from Labour : Starmer March 2023 - we will freeze Council Tax were we to be in government - Council Tax has gone up. Labour party manifesto - we will recruit 6500 more teachers, the total number of teachers in the state sector has gone down since Labour came to power . We will set up GB energy to cut bills - bills have increased.
Lots of leftist nonsense in your post Pam, if for instance I could afford private care, should I use it or clog up the NHS? If it wasn't for Brexit we would be just like Ireland. Completely banjaxed.
I don't like farage, but I but he's right about these savings and this is just councils trying to make him out as a liar when we all know how corrupt local and not so local government are !!!
Martin, I think John and I would like you to produce evidence for your claim that Farage is right about the £1m cost reduction. You can't just state something is true and then produce no evidence. Please prove that Farage is "right about these savings". We'll wait...
Didn't you read the article we're discussing? It says his claim is "bogus" and that "he's making up the numbers". If you want to dispute that you'll need to do better than just saying "he's right about these savings" without producing any evidence to support your claim..
I do not like pretenders such as Farage. However, there are also many other pretenders in the WNC such as the two Councillors of our wards. They claimed that they had information on our doors step but...I have never seen them. Moreover, I do not believe that anyone's else in this ward has either. As far as savings is concerned you always need hard evidence to prove it.
We can expect the lies to come thick and fast from Nigel Farage. It's a deliberate strategy to stay in the headlines. While he will become known to the discerning as a liar, he will become known to the general public as a regular political presence willing to speak his mind, to "tell it like it is" even when it blatantly isn't! According to the Washington Post, Donald Trump made 30,573 false or misleading claims in his first four years as president, increasing year-on-year from six per day in his first year to 39 per day in his fourth. In our increasingly post-truth world being a liar is no longer a political liability.
Remember these lies from Labour : Starmer March 2023 - we will freeze Council Tax were we to be in government - Council Tax has gone up.

Erm, well, Great British Energy was created by the Great British Energy Act 2025, which came into force on 15 May. How many solar farms and wind turbines did you expect them to build in their first two months Tiberious?
Toberious you have made many valid points. I feel exactly the same about Labour promises. Starmer and Rayner have gone out of the way to promote something which none of it could ever be delivered. What the Labour party have done is to attack the most vulnerable in our society.
Say something often enough and loud enough, and people just believe it, because it suits them to. Scary times.
straight out of the lefty loser handbook !
Boring comment
I know right. Imagine repeating '22bn pound black hole' over and over again... we are in the scared times...
This is a local story with the council saying ‘it’s hard to validate the £1m quoted by Reform UK and what this figure relates to’.
Oh, so that's OK then. Still..... there is no black hole like there is no £1m savings.
Neither are ok if they’re both BS
They clearly are BS. The OBR says it about the £22bn and we have evidence of local lies. Hard lies all round sadly.
Nige blowing the Reform Trump-et again. It works over there and will probably fool enough people over here as well.

Farage clearly believes no muck will stick on him as voters will back him whatever the truth is.
Farage is honest and reliable unlike the uniparties

Evidence?
yes good idea they need to show the evidence that Farage is wrong ! well done
Martin, I think John and I would like you to produce evidence for your claim that Farage is right about the £1m cost reduction. You can't just state something is true and then produce no evidence. Please prove that Farage is "right about these savings". We'll wait...
Please produced evidence he is wrong

And so where is the evidence that he is wrong? Oh there isn't any just opinions

Show us then Martin. We're waiting for proof...
I would trust REFORM far more than this lefty biased rag
