I already pay far more tax than I’ll see in benefits.
You can get fucked asking for more handouts from me to fund other people’s lifestyle choices.
Mr Farage said: “Tommy Robinson can do what he wants to do, away from us, as long as he stays within the law … which he doesn’t always do.”
Pretty funny ngl.
In fairness to Farage, if you’ve attracted the most gullible people in the country to be your supporters why wouldn’t you take the piss.
Oh my leader in Wales has been bribed by the Russians…. Well funny enough, I don’t know the guy, never met him, but I’ve also always thought he was a wrong’un.
Aren’t these supposed to be the low tax, ‘keep the government out of your private life’ people?
Some fuckin weird social engineering that.
Tax breaks because you’ve had kids? Just when you think this party can’t get any worse. He can go fuck himself.
Absolutely vile policy.
Farage needs to do more than “distance” himself from it.
That didnt take long.
He’s only been in Reform a matter of weeks and he’s already said something dear leader doesn’t approve of.
Probably should distance himself from his staffers who were using the n word for black people, saying they wouldn’t ‘touch’ a Jewish woman and that most trans people are paedophiles.
This would be the candidate that frog face hand picked that he’s now having to distance himself from?
Farage couldn’t organise a pissup in a brewery let alone run a country.
I do not have children, and I have no issue with tax money going towards decent quality, subsidised or free childcare as it’s the right thing for society. But Reform can f right off with this culture war on childlessness.
We do not need this Americanised puritanical bollocks here.
The irony is that, had he framed it the other way around, it would have sounded much more reasonable. Most European countries offer tax discounts to couples with children, which effectively is the same as taxing those without children. Classic Reform candidate…
This toffee nosed twat needs to loose and loose hard
Still not distanced himself from trump, epstein, bannon and the rest of team nonce though.
Honestly kind of crazy for a 44 year old guy with just 1 kid to be proposing this considering he needs at least 2 kids to do his part in getting fertility rates up to replacement level lol.
That’s stick, how about carrot?
Just pay women to have kids.
I’m sure. Distances himself whilst quietly saying “..not yet, you idiot!”
