More awareness has been raised around the rape and abuse of thousands of vulnerable British girls in the last few days than has ever happened before. As a country, this is a conversation we needed to have. It shames our political class that it has taken a man of Elon Musk’s influence to drag this into the light. This is where the focus should remain, not elsewhere - swift and brutal justice for those responsible. Tommy Robinson’s role in exposing these gangs should be acknowledged. He is not right for Reform, but I do think that his efforts in revealing these heinous crimes should not be overlooked. I thank Elon for his kind comments. I just want to do what is right for my constituency and my country - that is my only interest. Nigel is leader of Reform. He made Brexit happen, and for that I will always be grateful. I look forward to working with Nigel and the entire team to continue to hold this incompetent Labour Party to account, democratise our own party, win the next election and form a Reform Government. A power from outside the existing political establishment is the ONLY way to achieve the change this country so desperately needs.

Unbelievable ignorance and arrogance from the BBC thinking they knew better than Djokovic how to manage his own health
🎾 | Djokovic wins the French Open 💥 We had a bizarre segment on the BBC saying he had Covid twice but he should have been triple jabbed. 🏆 As current French, Wimbledon and Australian champion I doubt he agrees. 🇺🇸 He can now enter the US Open

I wouldn’t be so certain in any Omicron origin hypothesis just yet but lab leak is definitely on the table for me.

The narrative is now totally falling apart. This is not yet the beginning of the end but it is end of the beginning.

This is tyranny. Forcible vaccination is totally unacceptable. Western democracy is at fork in the road. Ppl need to decide which path to walk. I totally reject segregation, vaccine coercion & compulsion. I know I will lose friends and colleagues. So be it bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-…
