Reform UK have announced their Scottish Candidates for the 2026 Scottish Parliamentary Elections. Let's start with Senga Beresford (@BeresfordSenga) - seen at the launch today in this pic. Senga likes Tommy Robinson. She says she's "Behind him all the way": archive.is/S2sCc It's not the only time she's clearly supported him: xitter.cf/BeresfordSenga/status/… Then there's Britain First: xitter.cf/BeresfordSenga/status/… She's clearly happy to interact with the far-right. @reformparty_uk, is this really the sort of candidate you want in Scotland? #ReformScotland

“For me the USP for milk is nature’s superfood. As soon as we start playing with chemical additives that are questionable what sets milk apart from any other ultraprocessed shit? If it’s not good enough for us and our public consumers don’t want it what makes them think it’s good enough for our cows and the consumers will accept it?” 🥛 ~ Dairy farmer & No Farmers, No Food steering group member, Charles Goadby @thisfarmlife

Of all the interviews I’ve seen this is simply the best. Worth just a few minutes of your time to listen to. @RachelReevesMP @KemiBadenoch @mometfisher
'A lot of this could have been avoided if the treasury had just spoken to Defra and farmers in the first place.' External Affairs Director for Countryside Alliance, Mo Fisher, brands the Treasury's statistics on inheritance tax changes as 'very dubious'.

Today I spoke to thousands of farmers to relay a simple message👇 Labour don’t get farming. Their family farm tax is going to destroy farming as we know it. If we want to reverse this, we’re going to have to fight. Help us: stopthefarmtax.com

If Labour think the #familyfarmtax is an issue few care about they are about to get a shock. Britain understands what this means for how we farm, animal welfare, stewardship of the countryside, food security and prices. I came today from Portsmouth. No farms there, but massive support for these families and their communities. @NFUPolitical @portsmouthnews

Something beautiful about hearing every regional accent and seeing a tidal wave of battered wax jackets, muddied wellies, and tattered flat caps descend upon London Once upon a time, millers, farmers, wool merchants, and grain traders came here as the hub of British commerce. Our countryside came to our capital today. Ruddy faced and wondrous. And I loved to see it

Fantastic video from these young farmers explaining the basic economics and mathematics of the inheritance tax law that Rachel Reeves from customer service and is clearly incapable of. Please share this to inform the left wing echo chamber where needed.

Let’s get behind our magnificent farmers. The farming industry are united against the government’s family farm tax. The Lib Dems, Reform & Tories are also united against this. Let’s unite the public everywhere for farmers. Our food security depends on them. #UniteForFarmers

Fantastic from @1edmountain. Today I shall highlight in my speech that just like Edward, family farms are essential to Rural Scotland.
Let’s talk about family farms - Labour wants to destroy them.
