(1547) Almost evening all.

 

26. Missed Pi Day

Screenshot only, not clip

25. An older Roller


24. Running Britain into the ground


23. Most interesting


22. Steve at 996

15. Not wanting to be rough on Laura

… but she really is still enslaved by MSM Woke thinking at the unstated, general principles level, whilst suddenly discovering things and calling them out on her pay money substack … she has her fans to be sure. Here’s one of her discoveries:


14. There seem to be some reformed pollies downunder just now

8. Hush, Drew, Donny told us she’s doing great, very strong


7. £900


6. Fly with confidence


5. Wisdom takes many forms


4. Aphorisms

When is an aphorism just a quote? Well, in mine eyes, when it’s that Lenin quote or the one on democracy which goes on for paragraphs.

When is a quote a meme? Well, in mine eyes, when it has an attached visual, e.g. the apartheid or Lincoln quote ones.

This post item is meant to be just some aphorisms but a few are a bit long. As you’d gather, I’ve saved quite a few over time … shame they’re not re-used. I did think of an auto-display but that militates against simplicity, plus I don’t wish to rewrite them into a box. Here are a few:

Saturday [2 to 4]

(0702) Morning all … why do things always seem better after a sleep if the sun is also out? (0737)

Matthew 19.14😢

3. DAD at 995

Saterdi [as I heard it prononced on BBC World Service during the night].

a) …”and Mother came too”

b) Once again, a corruption scandal looms over the European Parliament (EP), as investigators from the Belgian federal judicial police conducted 21 searches across the Brussels region, Flanders, Wallonia, and Portugal.

c) Marine Le Pen has slammed the possibility of being declared ineligible to run in France’s 2027 presidential election. “If I’m banned from standing, it will be profoundly undemocratic…..

d) France: “243 000 bébés exterminés in 2024, ce n’est pas suffisant” [23% of pregnancies].

…..

JH adds: That’s pathetic of Le Pen … typical Bondi woman weakness … I want to hear: we will take this action or that … not “it’s unfair”. Pathetic.

Saturday [1]

(0001, genuinely, just happened this way) Greetings, dear reader. (0059, also genuine, not designed to be so … interesting)

 

Going to post this, ladies and gentlemen, both here and as a lead across the way.

……

Dear Mr Yusuf, Integrity matters to us. Cliché it might be, but this letter has been deeply sad to write. We are the interim Branch Officers for Reform UK, Chester North and Neston / Ellesmere Port and Bromborough, and we are all resigning from our posts, in concert and with immediate effect. We can no longer represent Reform UK. We can no longer face our voters, your masters, Mr Yusuf, and sincerely defend your Party’s actions. This decision comes after careful thought and with resounding unity. …/2.

Over the past five months, we’ve grown local membership from 780 to 1,482, as it stands today. We joined this Party for its drive to change politics for good, to bring hope back to the nation, and to deliver common-sense policies. We poured our hearts into structures and plans to make a major impact in our constituencies, only to see that vision crumble. We are utterly devastated. Daily, we face members who trusted us for guidance, now as disgusted as we are by your actions, many emailing to cancel their memberships immediately. If you care why you’ve lost an entire set of Branch Officers, read on. …/3.

The recent debacle, entirely of your making, involving Rupert Lowe MP’s suspension on March 7, 2025, over unproven claims, followed by dementia smear rumours by March 9 (X, 20:54 GMT) and the utterly spurious, disgraceful weaponization of the legal system in reporting him to the police on March 6, a day after his Telegraph critique (March 5), for alleged threats from December 13, 2024, an 84-day delay that reeks of retaliation, was the catalyst for our joint resignation.

Worse, Richard Tice confirmed on GB News (March 9) that Lowe would not regain the whip even if the claims were proven false, exposing this as a premeditated purge, not a pursuit of justice. Played out disgracefully over the weekend, this act of self-harm toward the party leaves your grassroots Associations to defend, explain, and justify. Such arrogance, dishonesty, and fragile autocracy is unbecoming of you, Mr Yusuf. …/4.

Patriotic members across the UK placed their faith in Reform UK to differ from other parties, to usher in a new era of governance and rescue their country from terminal decline. We relied on you to steer Reform on a steady, honest, professional path, to restore democracy and right Britain’s course. We thought you were a consummate professional with integrity at his core, heart in the right place, and up to the task.

We were wrong. You and Nigel are not leading this Party where we believed it was headed. The dastardly treatment of colleagues acting in the nation’s interest and your inability to tolerate the diversity of thought vital to any thriving organisation reveal your severe shortcomings. It seems we’re just more of “that lot” you want nothing to do with (Tice, GB News, March 9). …/5.

There’s no difference between this Party and the rest, willing to compromise anything for power, power for power’s sake, not the good of the people. Knowing this, how can we canvass voters or ask supporters to donate £25 a year for membership with a clear conscience? We can no longer reconcile this Party’s actions with the honest hope we pledged to deliver, a burden our integrity cannot carry.

Even more critically (still reading, Mr Yusuf?), you’ve left Branch Associations to fend for themselves, with no professional tools beyond limited member database access for chairs alone, which we couldn’t share with other officers, no centralised plan, no policy updates from HQ, no reliable way to relay members’ views upward, and no banking until recently.

Worse, all chairs and officers across every branch remain interim, appointed by you, not elected by members, designed to ensure dissenters like us, or Stafford, disbanded this week (March 10-11) and replaced with compliant voices, can be swiftly purged at your whim. You’ve expected us to build your grassroots from scratch with zero support, a task we can no longer stomach when challenging your methods risks our own erasure. …/6.

Most damningly, Mr Yusuf, the summer 2024 creation of ‘Reform 2025,’ where you and Nigel hold controlling interests, locks in this autocracy, shattering any illusion of a democratic Party. Reform UK isn’t like other main UK parties, it’s your personal fiefdom. Members can’t force leadership or policy shifts through votes, a right denied us while we toil as unelected placeholders. You promised the Electoral Commission and lawyers were working on full democratisation “very soon.”

That hasn’t happened as expected; Reform 2025 holds all the cards, doesn’t it? We in Chester North and Neston / Ellesmere Port and Bromborough can no longer defend your Party’s actions toward talented dissenters, your ad-hoc policymaking, your unprofessionalism, the utter lack of preparation for government in 2029 or sooner, and above all, the absence of democratic accountability. We wish well to members who can still trust you. We gave this our best, and we’re saddened to resign together today. …/7.

To conclude our duties in utmost good faith and professionalism: attached is a full financial report from Peter, our Treasurer; all petty cash has been paid into Peter’s account and transferred to the Reform Branch Bank Account through the donations facility; and the Reform credit card and paper-based information have been collected and centralised by myself, Chris Littlewood.

You can arrange collection of these materials, or I can shred them using a 2mm cross-cut shredder for GDPR compliance and provide photographic evidence—please let me know your preference. Our integrity matters to us. Yours in sorrow, Chris Littlewood, Chair Bianca Leaver, Deputy Chair Jacky, Secretary Peter Leaver, Treasurer Saffron, Campaign Manager …/END.
