In a fiery declaration, former *Apprentice* star and market trader Tom Skinner has signalled his intention to challenge the UK government, citing frustration with the current political leadership. Skinner, a popular figure known for his no-nonsense attitude and catchphrase "Bosh," has announced plans to stand for what he calls the values of the British working class.
I’ve had enough. I’m going to take over. To much has gone on. I will stand for what it right. Let’s get this country off the floor. WHO rides along side me? Let’s look after our own and bring back good values. I will not let you down. I will fight for you. Bosh🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

“I’ve had enough. I’m going to take over. Too much has gone on. I will stand for what is right. Let’s get this country off the floor. WHO rides alongside me?” Skinner stated in a passionate social media post. He added, “Let’s look after our own and bring back good values. I will not let you down. I will fight for you. Bosh.”
His comments come just 11 weeks into the leadership of Prime Minister Keir Starmer, under whom Skinner claims the country has been hit by growing inequality. Starmer, now being dubbed "Two-Tier Starmer" by critics, has faced growing backlash from working-class communities over policies seen as favouring certain groups at the expense of others.

Among the key grievances voiced by Skinner is the controversial decision by the Labour government to cut winter fuel allowances for pensioners, even as wages for train drivers were reportedly increased from £70,000 to £88,000 a year. Skinner’s initial act of defiance included ordering hundreds of heavy-duty blankets to distribute to homeless people and elderly pensioners across the UK.
This move marks the beginning of what many believe could be a new political force, as Skinner prepares to form the "Bosh Party," which he says will stand for working-class values and take direct action against what he perceives as unjust government decisions. He has already gained significant support on social media, with many of his followers calling him a "voice of the people" in a time of political disillusionment.
While details of the Bosh Party’s policies remain unclear, Skinner’s clear commitment to tackling the cost-of-living crisis and supporting those left behind by current government policies suggests that he will focus heavily on the issues affecting everyday Britons.
As Skinner gears up for what could be a dramatic entry into the political scene, the question remains: Will the Bosh Party gain enough momentum to challenge the established political order? One thing is certain—Tom Skinner is ready to fight.
