A political campaign graphic from Reform UK, posted by Mike Mendoza for Shoreham-by-Sea. The background shows a grassy park with picnic benches and a green building. Overlaid text reads: “LABOUR LET YOU DOWN” in red, “THE TORIES TOOK YOU FOR GRANTED” in blue, followed by black text: “After decades of Conservative dominance, Labour won – and immediately defunded a vital project. Reform UK is your alternative. We’re not career politicians. We’re here to serve you, not party HQ.” A Reform UK logo is in the bottom-right corner, and a small line at the bottom notes the promotion by Lionel Harman on behalf of Mike Mendoza, both of Reform UK.

Screenshot of a Facebook post from Mike Mendoza promoting Reform UK. The graphic in the post includes the text: “We’re not career politicians. We’re here to serve you, not party HQ,” with the phrase “serve you” highlighted and connected by an arrow to a note below the post that reads, “Mike Mendoza turned off commenting for this post.” This juxtaposition suggests irony between the claim of serving the public and the disabling of public interaction.
