Finally some welcome media scrutiny of Reform UK's manifesto. Every party's manifesto has spending gaps I.e their costing of the projects and the money available do not match. Like writing a list for the market coming up to 5000 naira and having only 4000 naira in your hand. Spending gaps are one thing but reforms manifesto has basically been written on the back of a pub napkin. Or pulled out their anorectum, forgive my French. If anyone's considering reform , please scrutinise their manifesto. They have no clue. |

Excerpt from Reform manifesto is nothing but modern day slavery. - The National Insurance rate will be raised to 20% for foreign workers - British citizens National Insurance rate would stay at 13.8% |

ehizario2012: I suppose you cureently stream via SmartersPro / PandaPlayer. Try and stream via Tivimate app if you have a spare £10 you're not using. Tivimate runs much faster than SmartersPro and the interface is user friendly. The subscription can be purchased via playstore / applestore only. Remember to logout of SmartersPro app before signing in on Tivimate so you don't breach the single user restrictions. 9 Likes 3 Shares |

Born2conquer:I used to suffer from insomnia. So, If you can't find zobo, just get cucmber that has been in the fridge for 12hrs or more. When you are ready to sleep, cut out two slices and place on your eyelids. You should start feeling drowsy within 15mins. Remove the cucumber when sleep don enter your body, cos it made my eyes red and puffy at times when i slept off and forgot to remove them till the next day.

Lexusgs430: I wouldn't be so sure.... BNP never had any political credibility. UKIP on the other hand, along with Tory backbenchers, was able to force the government to call an EU referendum, which they effectively campaigned for and eventually led to Brexit. Reform's real power will come from an alliance with the Tories, and there are already moves being made to that effect. Rishi is toast and the new party leader will determine whether the Tories align more closely with Reform. The next leader is likely to come from the right camp of the party - Suella, Priti Patel, Jenrick etc and this group has already gone on record to say that they would (and should ) welcome in Farage and Reform. I'm quite certain that they are already holding backroom discussions to carve out power. |

missjekyll: They have positioned themselves as a populist party, speaking and fighting for the common man against the corrupt establishment. Polls like the one in this article is why they are gaining support: https://news.sky.com/story/immigration-more-people-believe-it-has-a-negative-impact-on-society-than-positive-poll-suggests-13154613 Just pointing out that you might not hear these views on the doorstep for obvious reasons, but they are giving Reform a platform to run on. |

Hi Everyone, Please I need your input I just got my NHS COS which cover my dependants. Before getting the COS I and my wife switched to graduate visa this month when my student visa expired on the 7th June 2024.I could not apply for my children due to the high cost of IHS. The question now is how can I apply for my children whose current visa has expired on the 7th June 2024 with my new NHS COS? Please I need your guidance. |

ehizario2012: I think it was GoodEnoch who responded to Miss Jekyll's argument that immigration was not a concern because no one brought it up on the doorstep when she was out campaigning for Labour. He pointed out that people would be very unlikely to voice their feelings about immigration to a group of people that clearly included at least one immigrant. That's what I meant by "obvious reasons" 1 Like |

(I'm a Brit. Hope you don't mind me posting here). The problem that Reform or the Conservative party have with their current agenda is that it tends to mostly appeal to old ppl. The UK has a generational gap in attitudes between generation (I'm 34) and the older generation. I talk to my grandparents and they're worried about illegal immigration from channel crossings, knife crime in London etc. Their generation also has a number of ... quite racist people in it but they won't necessarily show it openly. Now, it is possible that this changes in the future. In Europe we're seeing a far right swing among young people but that hasn't materialized in the UK ... at least yet. I have seen young people having concerns around immigration but that seems to mostly be focused around house prices and inability to afford a property due to there not being enough. (This is what I've observed from personal experience) 4 Likes |

abuhusna1: That was not a smart gamble especially when they had the option of a PSW. How is he going to convince his employers to allow him continue on the job, while he buys time with administrative review? I won't be suprised if they refuse due to risk being penalised by HO. 1 Like |

iyatrustee:Yeah the employer contacted the home office and they confirm he has application ongoing but he is yet to tell them the result of the application is out and unfavourable. If he told me before applying I would have advised they apply post study first then the wife switch later. Na money he hp chop atleaat no one will be illegal |
