You couldn’t make it up
What is wrong with Reform UK LTD?
It’s not a rhetorical question as the list would be simply too long but why do they keep getting even the basics wrong?
During the last election they selected this man, Jack Denny, to run as a candidate for Leeds. Ex police sergeant and prison officer it seemed he was an apt candidate so they put him forward, had all the literature printed and it was all systems go for the general election.
Only there were a couple of issues they missed:
He’s on the sex offenders register after being found in possession with child exploitation images on a usb stick.
Not only that but three years prior this ex police sergeant served time in prison on a fraud conviction.
It was only after these details were released by a newspaper did Reform UK LTD drop him.
Can any random person on the street walk into Reform UK LTD’s HQ and say I’d like to be a MP and they just say sure no problem?
When I retired last year I decided to take a part time job delivering groceries for a large supermarket chain. To get the job I had to have a DBS check, that’s a Disclosure and Barring Services, it checks your criminal background to make sure you are a suitable candidate, it costs the company requesting the information some £30 for a basic one and takes a week or so.
Even a basic disclosure would have brought up all of this information, so why didn’t they do it?
If it wasn’t for the newspaper exposing him we may well have a convicted sex offender and fraudster (read bent police officer) sat in parliament along with the rest of the shower in Reform UK LTD but then again from the majority of the people they have he would have fitted in well.
It seems people delivering groceries are more vetted than potential candidates to run as members of parliament with Reform UK LTD.
