As a British Army veteran who served in Northern Ireland, I find this deeply concerning.
You promise to end ALL prosecutions of service personnel and veterans within 100 days.
On what legal authority?
What happens to independent prosecutors, judicial oversight, victims' rights and the rule of law?
Are you proposing that military service places someone above criminal accountability?
Veterans deserve protection from injustice, proper legal representation and fair treatment.
They do NOT need politicians promising immunity from scrutiny.
And you cannot simply declare a prosecution “unjust” because the accused wore a uniform.
Our oath was to serve our country, not place ourselves above its laws.
@AngusReform, explain the legal mechanism, not the slogan.
In Reform UK's first 100 days @AngusReform will end the unjust prosecutions of our veterans.
If he fails. He will resign.

May those who live, work or holiday on top of this have nightmares about what lies beneath them. May they imagine the cries of the dying and may it keep them awake at night.

No idea why Moyes has better PR than Dyche. They play the exact same way. I think getting Burnley 7th is as impressive as Everton 4th and a Conference for West Ham.

So tomorrow, the first tanker carrying 40,000 metric tons of Russian diesel is set to depart for the US. Let’s do the math.
40,000 tons is roughly 300,000 barrels.
The US consumes about 4 million barrels of diesel per day. That means this entire tanker covers less than two hours of American demand.
At the same time, the US exports around 1.5 million barrels of diesel a day—meaning this shipment is equivalent to just 4.5 hours of US exports.
The voyage from Ust-Luga to US terminals takes 2.5 to 3 weeks. By the time the tanker arrives, the US will have exported over 4 million tons of its own diesel—a hundred times more than what this single tanker is delivering.
So, one of the world's largest diesel exporters is buying diesel from an aggressor state just to cover two hours of domestic consumption? - Presidential Commissioner for Sanctions Policy Vladyslav Vlasiuk.

10 years ago today, the third and final Clinton v Trump debate, with the famous “puppet” exchange about Putin:

Tax the rich?
Everyone is against it until they find out how it actually works.
Watch and find out how Wealth Taxes actually work.

Putin supplies Iran with satellite intelligence. Iran uses that satellite intelligence to destroy all our bases and kill our service members in the Middle East. Trump then buys Putin’s diesel which is not physically available, but pays him money anyway. So, if you connect the dots, trump pays Putin to help Iran kill our service members. In my book, that is treason.

*Fact check: According to the Migration Observatory at the University of Oxford, small boat Channel crossings in September 2026 were roughly 11% lower than when Labour took office in July 2024, and down significantly (around 40% to 44%) compared to similar periods in 2025.

Paul Nowak is replacing Frances O’Grady, his predecessor at the TUC, who was appointed a Bank of England director in 2019 under a Tory government.
She in turn replaced Unison chief Dave Prentis, also appointed under a Tory govt. He replaced Brendan Barber (TUC), who replaced Bill Morris (TGWU), who replaced Gavin Laird (appointed under Thatcher) etc etc. This is not new!

Apparently being a 'Patriot' nowadays means loving Russia over the UK, loving Israel over the UK, loving the US over the UK...oh and shouting 'Traitors!' at RNLI volunteers...it's a funny old world.
