Wonderful news from Reform led Lancashire Council! But why is it news?? Surely it is the sole priority of all councils and all national governments to completely prioritise the people they serve...??🤔🤔

🚨 Reform-led Lancashire County Council is making history. It's the first ever local authority to withdraw from the government's refugee resettlement scheme.
This move prioritises local residents over new arrivals. It ends a policy Reform UK calls "shameful".
Reform UK Home Affairs spokesman Zia Yusuf states: "These schemes have only served to prioritise recent arrivals and foreign nationals ahead of the British public." The council says it's about fairness for Lancastrians.
This is a direct challenge to the Labour government's approach to local services.
Lancashire County Council is putting British people first.
