Reform wants to scrap green policies and turbocharge fossil fuel production. Now, the party's treasurer Nick Candy has said he's trying to raise millions from oil & gas executives. Farage's outfit is now effectively a wing of the fossil fuel industry

The Home Office has announced that it will be publicising the nationalities of foreign national offenders (FNOs). These plans are a racist exercise in scapegoating, with the aim of linking criminality to nationality- esp. nationality of Global South + Muslim-majority countries... buff.ly/nGcJfe8
