Women are rejecting the vile sexism of Rob Kenyon and Reform.

There are new stories every day of the awful things Reform candidates have said 🙃

🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨 Carol Vorderman brands Reform candidate 'little coward' in a letter, delivered by HOPE not hate to 6,000 women in Makerfield.

****

There's a by-election coming in Makerfield. The Reform candidate is Rob Kenyon. He deleted his social media but the posts didn't disappear.

HOPE not hate found Kenyon made disgusting comments about women. Among them, he suggested he would love to “smell and lick“ Carol Vorderman's “a*******.“

In other creepy comments he said he loves how female rugby players “handle their knockers” and wrote “if it’s not t*** and a***, it’s politics.”

He's even said, in his own words, "I'm sexist."

So Carol is writing to every woman in Makerfield — woman to woman, before they vote. Her message is simple: this isn't one nasty man with a phone. It's a pattern.

In 2024, Reform MP James McMurdock was found to have been convicted of "assault by beating." Court records say his girlfriend was on the ground and he was kicking her. Reform's response:
"he did his time."

Reform voted against the Employment Rights Act at every stage. That's the law that gives women sick pay from day one of being ill. The law that finally extends sick pay to the lowest earners (disproportionately women) and the law that makes it unlawful to sack a pregnant woman, or a new mother, for six months after she returns to work.

Carol didn't have to do this. She's not on a ballot. She's not paid to speak up. She did it because she's been there, and she's not having it, not for the women of Makerfield, not for her daughters, not for ours.

This experiment of privatisation has failed.

Public Ownership now.
