I have seen a few politicians wielding a chainsaw lately, notably Javier Milei the President of Argentina. Someone in Jersey needs to do this to the 2025 interim Island plan. The Island Plan has become a monster that crushes initiative. It chokes the economy, drives inflation and it is a license to employ 100s of civil servants. @serenabob

Religiously slaughtered meat needs to be clearly labelled. We have a right to know what we are eating and how it has been killed.

Every single person who still cringes at the memory of trying to bullshit their way through an interview or exam question: today, the slate is wiped clean. Set down your burden of shame. Nothing - nothing, I say - could touch this.

The UK Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood recently said “the people you see holding the English flag are mostly WHITE EDL and BAD people”. She is responsible for UK borders, migration and national security.

The Jersey election didn’t go well for @ReformJersey however several of its credible and experienced politicians were re-elected. If they have ambitions to higher office and to be taken seriously they should consider whether a close association with some of the party’s more controversial figures could ultimately hold them back.

I asked this question of @DeputyTadier following on from his @ITVChannelTV interview stating that @ReformJersey were a middle of the road social Democratic Party. I was asking a perfectly legitimate question and did so in a polite way. I got blocked by the Deputy and my question remains unanswered. If someone else manages to get an answer from the Deputy or anyone in their leadership team, please let me know. In the process, I was called an “animal” and a “c*nt” by some of his supporters (they have not been blocked and their responses to me were not condemned). So, when reform talk about being moderate, or condemn others for underhand tactics, think again, for they are nothing of the sort.
@DeputyTadier, if indeed Reform is the “middle of the road social democratic party”, you say you are, instead of blocking people, PLEASE take the opportunity to: a) answer the genuine questions members of the public are asking regarding your colleague Lee Carpenter’s tweets on October 7th 2023 (before the start of the Israeli offensive and while the bodies of the 1200 victims of the Hamas attack were still being counted). b) explain your candidate vetting procedures and justify your choice to field this candidate.

It only took five minutes filming in LA, trying to find out what’s gone wrong, before a mob of crazed lefties accused me of being paedo who eats children. And you wonder why they’re in the state they’re in?

Listening to @BBCJersey ’s election coverage. I must remind them that they are legally and operationally required to be neutral. Its public service mandate and editorial guidelines compel it to achieve due impartiality across its output. The blatant left-wing coverage and their slant over voters’ rejection of some Reform Jersey candidates is hard to ignore.

It was a tough night for those politicians who didn’t make it and were not re-elected. I feel particularly sorry for my mate @DeputySteveLuce who is a good man. A BIG thank you to those who lost their seats for their past service to the Island. I wish you all well in the next chapter of your lives
