Imagine looking forward to a cold, Friday evening pint all week, and then finding out your local pub was taken over by Reform UK.
The first Reform UK pub, The Talbot, in Blackpool is open! Would you grab a pint here?

BREAKING: A property in Blackpool has been turned into the UKs first Reform pub in spite of push back from locals. 2,600 locals signed a petition opposing the move claiming the property used to be a well respected crack den and fly tipping spot. #ReformUK https://t.co/LxmCcNUNmg

As the Daily Express reported:
Pete Flynn owns The Talbot pub in Blackpool with his business partner Nicholas Lowe, which rebranded on Sunday with Reform signage and logos. He said the change was made to “get the message out there” about the party’s policies and “improve business”. The pub rebranded after its owners, both Reform members, hosted a local party branch meeting in their function room.
Additionally:
Mr Flynn has asked to be nominated as a local candidate when a vacancy arises, and is currently undergoing the party’s vetting process.
What could be worse than a load of Reform UK voters drinking stale pints and talking about talking about closing our borders.
Welcome to your future everybody https://t.co/Ch66AMo3uS

It’s probably going to be the least diverse pub in the country.
I try not to get political on here but why is nobody deeply concerned by this. Correct me if I’m wrong but this is, in effect, a white only pub. Disgusting. https://t.co/StRnJHPNwN

I wonder if there’s a food menu at the Reform UK pub? Gammon and chips, anyone?
Gammons got their own pubs now… full of Lonsdale vests, bulldog tattoos and a Tommy Robinson bust at the end of the bar https://t.co/P67wnUc6Zy

‘A man of the people’
Farage is always trying to pass himself off as a man of the people, grabbing a pint down the local pub. In reality though, he’s:
- Funded by billionaire fascist and corporate criminal Elon Musk.
- Earns the highest amount of any MP through second jobs outside of parliament.
- Will cash in on a £73 grand pension from the EU when he turns 63, after doing fuck all as an MEP and driving the Brexit campaign.
- Is a literal millionaire.
All I’ll say is it’s gonna take A LOT of bumper revenue days to make up the £100bn of unfunded spending commitments in Reform’s manifesto

Look at that slick piece of shit advertising, slapping a plastic patriot logo on the side of a pub. Now every Reform dickhead within a 20-mile radius will make it their new local watering hole.
Pure genius, if you’re into brainwashing the masses with nationalist crap. It’s like… https://t.co/nLhoh94P7B

Frankly I’d rather nail my scrotum to the coffee table than set foot in there. https://t.co/n1mZrFVHc6

They are bitter.
Sorry, I mean they drink bitter.
And when the public finally send ‘couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery’ Farage and his frothing bigot party packing at the next election… it will be serving white man’s tears – on tap.
Now, that round’s on me.
