We must talk about #COVID because the misinformation on the vaccine is key to the popularity of Reform. The US & UK politics are entwined and from 2020 lobby groups popped up drowning out the voices of medically vulnerable folks & parents voicing concerns. 🧵 www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

More than half of reform voters probably struggle to craft coherent sentences too.

Brexit, climate denial, anti net zero, anti mask, antivax. ALL THE SAME PEOPLE. far right neoliberal populism in behalf of the fossil fuel companies.

And despite having had a minister for LongCovid (has he even been replaced?) the vax offer from Labour for this winter is minimal. 65-75 now will have to buy a vax if they want one. Care home workers won’t even get one to protect them from LongCovid. Nothing for kids unless immunosuppressed.

Yet they admit “COVID-19 spreads more easily in winter because we spend more time indoors with others.” And who spends most time in busy classrooms? Or in nursing/residential homes? Our kids & care workers. Our vax offer is worse than USA’s under Trump. ukhsa.blog.gov.uk/2025/06/26/w...

And why do they admit vax protection wanes but not offer it to those who’ve not had one for years? Or admit that immunity from previous infections also wanes, if it even existed.

Reform is ultimately for people who choose their prejudices over facts and reasoning. That applies to vaccines, the EU, immigration, flags, and whatever else Reform wants people to be angry about in order to distract from the real issues.

Same Reformers will have ridiculed/refused having to wear face masks. They don’t believe in childhood vacs, autism and ADHD, climate change. They’re anti gay and transgender. They demonise all immigrants. They’ll spend their free time hanging flags everywhere. The same mentality as the MAGAs.
