To be increasung concerned about Restore Britain.

This is why lots of long held Labour councils fell- mine included. It had only ever been Labour.
Complacency. They didn't listen to the constituents.

What would you do with all of the non-English-speaking unemployed people in council houses? Would you do the same to a white British unemployed person in a council house? There are loads of white British people who are a drain on society.
@Gingerkittykat
Sadly we cannot get rid of the home-grown waste of spaces.
The rest... why are they our responsibility??

I don’t think turning every point of improvement into a swamp of souped up ‘ whatabouts’ is how we improve things. If you decide to hoover your house, do you decide perhaps not to bother, as you actually need a new loo seat? No.

one job at a time.

Labour got hold of our borough pre the last council election. We’ve now got filthy pavements, scruffy parks, unpruned trees, facile signs stuck every where and plastic foliage festooned seating areas bunged in the shopping centre for yoofs to hang about in. WTF is wrong with them. Terrible.

Getting rid of the money laundering businesses would be fantastic.

(like my next-door neighbours, in their 40s, probably never worked. I see them getting their methadone every day at the chemist, and they are also small time dealers who spend their whole time screaming and shouting at each other and having loud get togethers. I would love it if you could get rid of them.)

They are doing it.
That are replacing some of our Yorkshire stone flags that people have been asking Labour for for years, clearing chewing gum from pedestrianised areas, and generally cleaning town centres up. Little things that make a big difference.
Local response from FB community groups and businesses regarding their engagement with local businesses and townspeople is apparently very good.
The Reform Council Leader is Karl Johnson - he's out and about and very visible, swishing his hair....

@Paganpentacle I am in a non-Yorkshire part of Oop North. Our 3 local Conservative councillors defected to Reform a couple of years ago, and since then I too have been impressed by the extremely robust way they have gone after the horrid vape shops. Although tbh when I realised how easy the process was (essentially, walk in, ask for cheap cigarettes, purchase 600 from a bag under the counter and then alert the LA) and how many simply did not reopen after being raided, I am pretty disgusted that councillors of any other stripe did not attempt to tackle them.

DH is an immigrant from the ME and a Muslim to boot. He's voting for Reform in 2029.

A desire is very different from actually doing it.

Then you should have been more specific. It looked like you were saying that the council were getting rid of none English speaking tenants

I quoted their desire to be rid of money laundering vape shops.

You quoted a poster saying they wanted just that, and stated your Reform council are doing it. If you actually meant they're out scraping chewing gum off pavements, then you should have been plain. Removing chewing gum is a laudable thing. We none of us want a sticky sole.

Again... I don't need to provide you with anything.
If you're local- you'll know.

Look at the two posts and you’ll see why you’re being questioned. Just tell us where it is.

I beg your finest pardon?
Where did I say they were moving non-English speaking people?
Currently they are removing chewing gum from pavements and replacing Yorkshire stone slabs where the previous Labour council tarmac'ed it.
And seeing as the council grants licences for businesses they are well within their remit to block vape shops.
FFS🙄

No address needed. Just some proof. Maybe an article in a local paper, press release by the council perhaps

It's a shame they've disappeared. We'll just never know where that happened.

Do you want my home address as well?
Its a local council. In Yorkshire.
I don't actually give a flying shit whether you think I'm lying or not...

I don't know how I've missed the headline "Reform led town up North evicts all non English speakers from council housing"
"Derek a lifetime resident of Up North praised the move describing it as "truly uplifting of the Up North community" who can now open their windows again without the distressing sound of other languages being heard in their neighbourhoods..."

Can you be more specific? I've not read anything on the news and I'm sure Reform would be promoting their successes.

Unless you can provide proof then everyone is just going to think you're lying

Where's this ..what things have changed

You have been misled. There is no council in the UK that is removing non English speakers from council housing. This is not something they have the power to do, so would be acting illegally. You may be getting confused with what Farage has said he'd like to do with what's actually being done.

Doesn’t help me I’m afraid.

In a Reform led council.
Up North.

Where is this miracle happening?

Our council is now Reform... from Labour.
They are prioritising this. Labour did nothing but line their own pockets.
There's been a marked improvement .. I am quietly impressed.
