Simon Dudley is the former Conservative leader of Windsor and Maidenhead Council who breached pre-election conduct rules in 2019 then resigned before the investigation concluded.

Another Tory joins Reform.

Interesting rant about the "London is failing" social media posts.

Bangor University have banned Reform and called us “racist, transphobic and homophobic”.

Bangor receives £30 million in state funding a year, much of which comes from Reform-voting taxpayers.

I am sure they won’t mind losing every penny of that state funding under a Reform government.

After all, they wouldn’t want a racist’s money would they?

It's not Bangor University as a whole, but the Political Society, probably just a few young students.

I'm sure this is unrelated to Nigel's earlier announcement.

But don't let mere facts intrude on an opportunity to brag about the Trump-style revenge you plan against anyone who defies you, such as woke students who will have graduated and left before you have a chance of getting into power and wrecking their university.

How VERY DARE a debating society not invite someone who asked to be invited to one of their events.


But I guess "we asked to be invited to a club and they said 'no, we don't like bigots' so they are meanies" doesn't have the same ring to it, even if it has the (dis) advantage of being truthful.

This from the man who - checks notes - couldn't cope with a fashion and business studies degree course...

A towering intellectual giant of our times...

Sounds more like there is a re-visit of the old '70s student union discussion about whether or not to "no platform" fascists and racists, which those of us of a certain age will remember.

Our once revered and world class University system has been captured by left wing ideologues who hate freedom of speech.

Education needs Reform.

I remember a recent home secretary who hates freedom of speech. The cowardly woman's name escapes me momentarily.

These 'Patriots' seem to spend all their time slagging of Britain and our people.

"I want to go to Bangor University" said nobody ever. Especially if Bangor University is stripped of government funding and student loan facilities by @reformparty_uk Is that "in line with your values," poppets?

Aaah, so Isabel doesn't know anyone who is interested in biology, geography, geology etc, as Bangor has long been pretty good for those (we were based there for a 3 week field trip in my second year - it was great, but I do have a liking for North Wales).

Pillock!

In line with our values, if Bangor Uni does not believe in free speech, then British taxpayers should not have to fund them.

Perhaps remove all government funding and no student loans for Bangor students

The phone will ring very soon

Why would Reform's Richard Tice, who is one of the largest office block landlords in Britain, possibly be against people working from home?
