Childcare worker: DBS vetted, OFSTED accountable.
Mother: no vetting required.
This is not about safety, it's about control. Reform want women in the home, not at work.
Meanwhile, the types of people who get through Reform's "vetting"...

Playing the victim is exactly what abusers do. Netanyahu needs to be arrested and tried for the very real genocide he has committed, rather than being entertained about the imagined genocide that's in his head.
Tweet by Martina Navratilova. "Predator. That is how he should register. A sexual predator…" quote-tweeting a tweet by "Biology Rules OK" about Dr. Beth Upton, a trans woman
This tweet is highly defamatory and Martina Navratilova should be fired from BBC Sport for it.
It demonstrates an horrendous level of hatred for a trans woman (who was cleared of all wrongdoing in a recent tribunal) because she is a trans woman.
Shaking my head to rid it of the thought of a Tommy Robinson double shiny.
My old school had it sorted. Students' phones were effectively banned from the premises, except with express parental permission. Phones locked in the school office during the day to be collected at home time. Any phone not handed in was confiscated and given back directly to parents.
I didn't mention Developed Vetting. I'm talking about politicians being so obviously unfit for office - that government and the security services have such serious concerns about them - that internal measures have to be put in place because of the threat that person poses to national security.
The system is broken, to the extent that it's allowed to be ignored, but then we already knew that.
The same happened with Boris Johnson as Foreign Secretary. He was seen as a massive security threat... and he was allowed to become Prime Minister.
My first landlord became a family friend, he treated me so well.
I paid £300 a month, including bills, for a renovated coachman's cottage. His wife gave me lifts to work and later did my brother's washing.
It was such an amazing deal my brother moved in as soon as I moved out and stayed for years.
Brilliant 🤣
That's my partner.
In fact, it's so many people, I hope this is the thing that finally ends Reform, in the same way it ended the Tories.
So basically saying he's going to break the law and embarrass the UK globally.
The Tories tried it but just ended up breaking themselves. They weren't embarrassed though, for they have no shame, they just joined Reform so that they could try and do it again.
Wait until you hear about bicycles! And cars will really blow your mind.
That sounds uncannily like Boris Johnson. Why, for the love of God, are we still having to put up with this BS?
Her office said the Office for Students (OfS), which regulates universities, had received reports of speakers and lecturers being harassed and blocked for holding gender-critical or religious views, of foreign interference suppressing academic freedoms, and of ideological belief requirements featuring in job advertisements.
The OfS will be able to use the new complaints scheme from September. From April, it will be able to fine universities the greater of £500,000 or 2 per cent of their income, which would amount to millions of pounds for large institutions, for breaches under the Freedom of Speech Act. Ultimately, universities could be deregistered for egregious cases.
Bridget Phillipson will introduce new laws to make it possible for Universities to be fined millions of pounds if they don't silence students who protest bigots invited onto their campuses. It's like the Tories never left office.
However many they do get, I imagine there will be a lot of wastage when it comes to light - as it always seems to do at Reform - that their candidates weren't vetted properly / have a history of domestic abuse / are a closet Nazi / have committed fraud / have unpaid tax anomalies etc
My thought exactly.
Oh, he's an idiot, all right. However, he's not doing this because he's stupid, he's doing it to make billions by insider trading on the stock market. His own greed outranks any worry about the US economy. As long as he's making money, he doesn't care.
The US is stupid for letting him do it.
He's not exactly stupid though, is he? I mean, it's great for him: he's using his low cunning to visibly insider trade on the stock market to make billions out of his threats. It's everyone else who's stupid for allowing him to screw the US and the wider world by doing this
Not so much “bets” as race-fixing
“16 bets made $100,000 each accurately predicting the timing of the US airstrikes against Iran on 27 Feb. Later, a single user would make over $550,000 after betting that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei would topple, just moments before his assassination by Israeli forces“
It's more than a gateway drug. If you are willing to buy any of their very obvious BS or support any of their extremely dodgy politicians, you'd already have to be off your head. Unfortunately, many people are so intoxicated with racism they can no longer think straight. Easy marks for Reform.
Sky & BBC News are weaponising Epstein's victims:
How?
They (rightfully) condemn Starmer for hiring Mandelson, KNOWING he was friends with a convicted abuser.
But never mention Farage backing a convicted abuser as an MP and befriending MANY others.
The Conservative councillor who ordered the chopping down of the trees in the middle of the night on Armada Way in Plymouth is now standing for Reform UK.
Not surprising considering Reform is a retirement home for failed Tories.

Peace when the stock market is open, war when it isn’t.
You would think even the dumbest red hat-wearing motherfucker could understand by now that the only tactics and strategy in this “war” are based on market manipulation and making rich people even richer.
Well, this is it. For his statement to be true he has to go beyond dropping two nuclear bombs on the country. Fortunately, Trump is a notorious liar. Unfortunately, such is the threat level, it has to be taken seriously. Meanwhile, Trump will use it to play the stock markets and screw everyone over.
Tice failed to pay £100,000 tax on profits of firms linked to Reform — story via The Sunday Times
Richard tax-cheat Tice.
And remember when Farage’s partner bought his Clacton house somehow, so he could avoid paying taxes on it?
That is all Reform UK Party Ltd exists for: money.
I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.
He can't help it. He's lied so much, his trousers are out of control.
Me too... but I thought the inevitable failure of Brexit would cause enough people to wake up to Farage's lies as to scupper his political ambitions. Instead, the public have doubled down on their own ignorance to the extent Reform are ahead in the polls. UK should be redubbed: "A nation of marks".
I mean Johnson was outed and toddled off back to tabloid journalism.
I've seen people from other countries discuss at length how toxic the British zeitgeist is towards not rocking the boat. Calling out problems here is genuinely treated as worse than causing them.
Absolutely! I couldn't put it better myself.
