Women know the truth: Britain is no longer a safe country

Our country has changed. I remember a time when calling the police meant they would actually come. Now? When my kids were robbed, the police told me there weren't enough resources to send someone. I had to do the dangerous legwork myself. I risked my life and the press called me 'vigilante mum.' Well, Reform is for every vigilante mum out there.
For every parent who feels sick with worry when their kids leave the house, for every parent who's been looked down on, ignored, insulted, and silenced. For everyone fighting to protect their family – only to be told to 'calm down and shut up' while the Government places unvetted foreign men on their doorstep.
When we call it out, they don't act, they attack us. They accuse us of stoking fear. They accuse us of lying. Well, here's the truth: the fear is real, and so is the danger, and the only liars are the ones telling you Britain is safer. You are never alone, we see, we hear you and Reform is coming to fight for you.
I have prosecuted violent criminals. I've comforted victims. I've hugged my own children after they were robbed at knife point. This campaign is not spin for me. It's reality I've seen danger up close, and I can tell you, the fear is not paranoia. It's the truth.
When you cut visible policing, half stop and search, empty the prisons and only charge 6 per cent of reported crimes, you hand control of our streets to the criminals. This isn't just failure, it's a dereliction of duty. I'm angry because the very people who won our votes with promises of safety have done the exact opposite.
Why do there seem to be no police on our streets? Why isn't there a laser focus on knife crime? Why aren't people in balaclavas searched? Why are foreign rapists not deported? While these questions still go unanswered, the Government has the audacity to force through the Online Safety Bill, using child safety as cover to gag dissent.
And when we call it what it really is, censorship, they accuse us of being 'dangerous' and siding with predators: a level of hypocrisy only matched by their deceit.
These are the same people who initially refused a national inquiry into the grooming gangs they protected for years. Then they act shocked when mothers protest.
The Crown Prosecution Service's so-called policy on violence against women and girls states that it is actually gender neutral and inclusive of men who identify as women. That's not inclusion. That's deleting us from our own safety laws.
The Tories took a policy meant to protect women and gutted it. What should have been a shield for us becomes a smokescreen for politicians. Rape and sexual assault against women is an epidemic. Women are targeted because we are women. We face threats men will never face. We want a government that recognises this, not ideology that diminishes it.
That starts with a fearless leader who puts truth and safety first. Imagine a government, led by Nigel Farage, that treats the safety of its people as sacred. One that stands between you and danger, every hour, every day, and never flinches.
A country where the police are on your streets, where every predator, gang member, and violent offender knows there is nowhere to hide. Where your borders are secure, your streets are safe and your children can grow up free from fear. That is the Britain we deserve and under Reform that is the Britain we will have.
This country does not belong to the gangs, the predators, or the politicians who protect them. It belongs to us. The people who work hard, raise our families, play by the rules, and deserve to live without fear.
