I’ve just arrived in Makerfield to help get Reform UK candidate Rob Kenyon elected in this absolutely crucial by-election. 🇬🇧 If I were a resident of Makerfield, I would be incredibly cross, enraged and angry that local people are being dragged into a by-election purely to further the career ambitions of one man. Let’s not forget — if he wins, this could trigger yet another by-election for Mayor of Greater Manchester and potentially a Labour leadership contest that could ultimately decide who becomes our next Prime Minister. I personally believe the next Prime Minister of our country should be chosen by the British people in a General Election — not effectively decided through political manoeuvring, internal party games and one constituency being used as a stepping stone. People are fed up with career politicians.People are fed up with Westminster games.People want honesty, transparency and common sense back in politics. The only sensible, common-sense vote in this by-election is Reform UK and Rob Kenyon. 🇬🇧 #ReformUK #RobKenyon #Makerfield #VoteReform #CommonSensePolitics #Labour #PoliticsUK #ByElection #MakeBritainGreatAgain #RealChang

They say you should never meet your heroes… well today in Makerfield I met one of mine — the truly inspirational June Slater. What an incredible lady. Strong, fearless, passionate and completely authentic. It was an absolute honour to spend some time chatting with her. I left feeling even more motivated to keep standing up, speaking out and fighting for what I believe in. Sometimes you meet someone you’ve admired for a long time and they exceed every expectation. June is one of those people. Thank you for taking the time to chat today, June. It was a pleasure to meet you. #Makerfield #JuneSlater #MeetingMyHero #InspirationalWomen #CommonSense #Patriot #MakingADifference #StandUpSpeakOut #ReformUK #Politics #GrassrootsPolitics #NeverGiveUp

Out campaigning in Hockley today with the Reform lorry, and something deeply concerning happened on Buckingham Road. A teacher standing with a group of school children actively encouraged them to boo and give thumbs down to our vehicle. Whatever your political views, children should not be used to push political bias or be influenced in this way by those in positions of trust. Our schools should be places of education, critical thinking, and respect — not political indoctrination. Quite frankly, this sort of behaviour is deeply inappropriate and raises serious questions about neutrality within our education system. Parents deserve to know what is happening, and children should be allowed to form their own opinions free from political influence. #Hockley #Education #PoliticalNeutrality #ParentsMatter #ReformUK #Essex #LocalElections

🚨 ENOUGH IS ENOUGH 🚨 Just days ago, Keir Starmer stood on record and branded anyone who supports or follows Reform UK as “racist.” Let that sink in. This is not only insulting—it’s dangerous. Yesterday, while I’m supposed to be on holiday, I spent over an hour on the phone calming down a close family member who was in tears, terrified for my safety simply because I dare to stand for Reform UK. At the same time, Nigel Farage’s security has been slashed by 75% — all in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder. And don’t tell me “that doesn’t happen here.” What about David Amess? What about Jo Cox? Both MPs. Both brutally murdered in this country. Today, the Pink Ladies from Epping went to London to peacefully protest after a child was sexually assaulted. That’s why they acted—because children deserve protection. Why is it branded “racist” to want to protect our women and children? Why is it “racist” to want a safer country? Standing up for women. Standing up for children. Standing up for Britain. That’s what Reform UK is about. We want a country that is safe, peaceful, and prosperous. The establishment tries to twist that into something ugly because they’re afraid of people like us—ordinary people who refuse to be silenced. As ever, stay safe, stand strong, and never stop speaking the truth. 🇬🇧 #ReformUK #BritainFirst #TruthMatters #StaySafe

🚨 By-Election Alert in Colchester! 🚨 Labour MP Pam Cox, who was only elected in May, has now stood down from Colchester City Council — forcing a by-election to take place. Another example of Labour putting politics before the people! I’m out today with our fantastic Reform UK team in Colchester, door-knocking and speaking to residents alongside our amazing candidate James Child. We’re hearing loud and clear — people are fed up with broken promises and career politicians who walk away when it suits them. Reform UK is here to stand up for real people, with real integrity and real commitment to our communities. 💪🇬🇧 #ReformUK #Colchester #ByElection #RealChange #ReformUKTeam #PeopleBeforePolitics

I’m fully aware this may be an emotive post today… but I think it needs to be said, because it’s something that’s been massively troubling me. 4:45am alarm. 5am gym. Bank Holiday Monday. Why? Because I’m trying to prove a point. I’m watching the rise of these so-called “fat jabs”… and honestly, it worries me. Seeing people shrink almost overnight. But here’s the thing — I’m choosing a different route. No shortcuts. No quick fixes. I’m putting my money where my mouth is and doing it the old-fashioned way — discipline, consistency, hard work. This isn’t just about weight. It’s about feeling stronger, healthier, and in control. It’s not easy… but I showed up. And that’s the point. 👊 What are your thoughts on it all?

The arrogance of Andy Burnham is absolutely staggering. He isn’t stepping into Makerfield because he suddenly cares about the people there or wants to fight for the area. He’s doing it to further his own political ambitions and position himself for a future run at Prime Minister. Makerfield deserves better than being treated as a stepping stone in somebody else’s career plan. And let’s not forget… Makerfield voted around 65% to leave the European Union. Yet Burnham has already been forced into his first major U-turn after previously backing closer ties with Europe again. Labour simply do not listen. They say one thing to get elected and another once they think they’re safe. This by-election is historic and people have a real chance to send a message loud and clear to Westminster. If you live in Makerfield, or know anybody who does, urge them to vote Reform UK. A vote for Labour is a vote for more of the same. A vote for Reform UK is a vote for real change, democracy and putting British people first. The political establishment are taking voters for granted yet again. Makerfield now has the chance to prove them wrong. #Makerfield #WakefieldByElection #ReformUK #VoteReformUK #VoteForChange #LabourFailing #Brexit #LeaveMeansLeave #TakeBackControl #BritishPolitics #GeneralElectionNow #EnoughIsEnough #PoliticalChange #RedWall #YorkshirePolitics #LabourUturn #AndyBurnham #ReformUKRising #CommonSensePolitics #BritainNeedsReform

An incredible 100-year-old veteran appeared on Good Morning Britain with Kate Garraway and Adil Ray and said he didn’t feel it was worth fighting the war, looking at the state of the country today. What a heartbreaking thing to hear from someone who sacrificed so much for our freedom. Yet instead of showing him the respect he deserves, these presenters patronised him — speaking to this brave man as though he were a child. Absolutely disgusting. When will our Prime Minister, the Labour government, and all the left-wing activists who love to call people like me and my Reform UK colleagues “far-right” finally wake up and realise — this man was only saying what so many of us are thinking! Is he “far-right”? No. He’s just right. 🇬🇧

I’m here with our fantastic Reform UK candidate, Rob Kenyon, talking about exactly why the people of Makerfield need to get behind him in this hugely important by-election. And let’s be absolutely clear — this is not just any old by-election. This is a General Election by any other name. The eyes of the entire country are on Makerfield right now because what happens here could have massive consequences for the future direction of British politics. This vote is about far more than one seat. It’s about sending a message loud and clear that people have had enough of broken promises, career politicians and being taken for granted. Rob is hardworking, genuine, approachable and somebody who actually understands the concerns of ordinary people because he is one of them. He’s not part of the Westminster bubble. He’s standing because he genuinely cares about his community and wants to fight for local residents. While Labour continue to play political games and focus on personalities and power struggles, local people are worrying about the cost of living, crime, immigration, jobs, small businesses and the future of their communities. Makerfield now has the chance to make history. If you want change, if you want common sense, if you want politicians who actually listen to ordinary people again — then get behind Rob Kenyon and vote Reform UK. This by-election matters. Probably more than most people realise. #ReformUK #Makerfield #VoteReform #RobKenyon #GeneralElection #PoliticalChange #CommonSensePolitics #EnoughIsEnough #BritainNeedsReform Cllr Rob Kenyon Reform UK

📢 Makerfield – you’ve got less than FIVE hours left to vote! Every single vote matters. Just look at Sarah Pochin’s victory, which was decided by only six votes. Elections can be won or lost by the smallest of margins. So the question is simple: do you want a career politician who DOES ONLY SEE Makerfield as a stepping stone, potentially triggering more costly elections and political manoeuvring? Or do you want Cllr Rob Kenyon a local lad who knows the area, cares about the community, and wants to work hard for the people of Makerfield? The choice is yours. But if you want change, if you want a strong local voice, and if you want someone who will put Makerfield first, then get out and vote for Rob today. 🗳️ Every vote counts. Every vote matters. Don’t leave it to someone else. #VoteRobKenyon #Makerfield #ReformUK #ElectionDay #EveryVoteCounts #VoteForChange #LocalVoice #MakerfieldVotes #RobKenyon #VoteToday

🚨 Digital ID – What on earth is going on? 🚨 A couple of days ago, I discovered an app on my phone called ID Check — something to do with Digital ID. I definitely didn’t download it! 😡 When I mentioned it to friends yesterday, they laughed and said I must’ve done it after a couple of glasses of wine… until they checked their phones — and guess what? They all had it too. So how has something like this appeared on our phones without our knowledge or consent? This is my private property. My phone. My choice. I’m very anti–Digital ID and will resist it at all costs. Are we seriously at the point where things can just be added to our devices without permission? This isn’t “progress” — it’s control. 👉 What are your thoughts? Have you noticed this app appear too? Let’s talk about it. #DigitalID #PrivacyMatters #FreedomOfChoice #ReformUK #TakeBackControl

Please… someone make this make sense to me. A lollipop man in Plymouth has felt he had no choice but to resign after being threatened with suspension… for high-fiving children as they crossed the road. I don’t even know where to start with this one. As a mum, I know how much my son looks forward to seeing the lollipop man every day — that little high-five is a moment of happiness, reassurance and routine. It’s part of childhood. It always has been. And now? We’re seeing yet another example of this ridiculous, out-of-control woke madness that’s creeping into every corner of normal life. We are sucking all the joy, spontaneity and simple human connection out of our communities — and for what? Where does it end? Give me strength. This country needs to get a grip. #CommonSense #WokeBritain #ItHasToStop #EnoughIsEnough #ProtectChildhood

🚨 A genuine question… As of today, the Government has tightened the law to make food delivery platforms more responsible for checking that the people delivering for them have the legal right to work in the UK. As someone who’s run a recruitment agency for over 24 years, I find this astonishing. From day one, I’ve always checked every single person’s right to work before they started working with us. It wasn’t optional—it was simply the right thing to do and a legal requirement. Apparently, the issue has been around parts of the gig economy, where self-employed and substitute delivery riders have been able to slip through the cracks. My question is… why was this ever allowed to happen? If recruitment agencies and countless other businesses have been carrying out these checks for years, why weren’t the same standards consistently applied across every sector? Closing loopholes is welcome, but surely ensuring everyone working in the UK has the legal right to do so should never have been a loophole in the first place.

My thoughts on the Makerfield by-election... Firstly, I don't believe this was simply a Labour vs Reform election. In many ways, I think it was a referendum on how quickly people want to see Keir Starmer removed as Prime Minister. One thing I found particularly interesting was that throughout the campaign I saw very little use of the Labour logo, and in many cases not even the word "Labour" appeared on campaign literature. Even Andy Burnham seemed keen to distance himself from the party brand. To me, that says a lot. Had Reform won, I genuinely believe it would have sent shockwaves through Westminster. Starmer's position would have come under even greater pressure, and I suspect conversations about his future would have accelerated dramatically. Burnham has made no secret of his ambition to become Prime Minister, and many voters were well aware of that. As for our candidate, Rob Kenyon, I thought he was outstanding. It takes enormous courage to put your head above the parapet and stand for public office. You open yourself up to scrutiny, criticism and, unfortunately, at times, some very unpleasant behaviour. With the eyes of the political world on Makerfield, the pressure was immense, yet Rob conducted himself with dignity, professionalism and humility throughout. I was incredibly proud to campaign alongside him. The result may not have gone the way we wanted, but let's not lose sight of the bigger picture. The growth of Reform UK over the last two years has been phenomenal. Our vote share continues to increase, our membership continues to grow, and more people than ever are putting themselves forward because they want real change. People often ask me whether I would ever switch my political allegiance to another party. My answer is simple: absolutely not. Reform UK is more than a political party to me now. It feels like a family. The friendships I've built, the people I've met and the shared belief that we can make this country better mean far more than titles or positions. I've watched people leave for other parties over the years. In my experience, it's often because they felt overlooked, wanted promotion faster, or had fallen out with colleagues. Politics is full of people chasing the next rung on the ladder. But this is a marathon, not a sprint. My job is simple: help Reform UK get into government. Whether my role in that journey is large or small doesn't matter. I am proud to be part of that machinery, proud to stand alongside so many dedicated people, and proud of how far we've already come. Now we keep going. #Makerfield #ReformUK #RobKenyon #Politics #Campaigning #TeamReform #LocalPolitics #ChangeIsComing #KeepGoing #ReformFamily

Out in Makerfield today with Richard Tice MP 🇬🇧 on this crucial Election Day, supporting Reform UK candidate Rob Kenyon. Just a reminder that every single vote matters. In a recent local election, Sarah Pochin won by just six votes — proof that elections can be decided by the slimmest of margins. Polls are open from 7am until 10pm today in the Makerfield by-election. If you want change, don’t assume someone else will vote for it. Get out, use your vote, and back Rob Kenyon. 🇬🇧 Every vote counts. Every conversation counts. Every vote matters. #Makerfield #ElectionDay #VoteRobKenyon #ReformUK #VoteForChange #EveryVoteCounts #RichardTice #RobKenyon #Politics #UKPolitics 🇬🇧

Yesterday Rachel Reeves was outside a petrol station forecourt when a clearly very frustrated man shouted from his van telling her to “get Starmer out” and that they are “ruining this country.” Now, while I don’t condone bad language or aggressive behaviour, politicians are public servants. I’ve said this many times and I think many in Westminster have forgotten that. That man was obviously angry and upset about the state of the country, just like millions of others right now. Maybe he’s struggling to feed his family. Maybe his business is suffering. Maybe he simply feels nobody is listening anymore. Instead of dismissing people or implying they are somehow “un-British” for expressing frustration, perhaps this government should start listening to why people are so angry in the first place. This is yet another example of just how tone deaf this Labour government really are. #RachelReeves #KeirStarmer #LabourGovernment #PoliticsUK #CostOfLiving #SmallBusinesses #WorkingPeople #PublicServants #ListenToThePeople #BritishPolitics #Essex #ReformUK

Three years. No National Insurance. For Indian nationals working in the UK. Yes — you heard that right. The government’s latest initiative gives foreign workers a three-year free ride while British workers are taxed to the max. Please… make it make sense to me. Does this mean they won’t be using the NHS? Won’t need our infrastructure? Won’t access the very services National Insurance is supposed to fund? Because I think we all know the answer to that — of course they will. So while YOU pay in, they get a tax break. How is that fair to the millions of British workers who are struggling every single day? This isn’t fairness. This isn’t putting our country first. This is the government once again turning its back on its own people. Reform UK says: enough is enough. It’s time for common sense. It’s time to put British people first. Watch. Share. Speak up.
