Darren Grimes was demonetised on Facebook and went looking for handouts – 14 hilariously unsympathetic responses
Former GB News presenter and Reform UK member Darren Grimes is now Deputy Leader of Durham County Council. No – really!
Since gaining office, he has been contacted by police over allegations of inciting racial hatred, faced complaints made about an AI video about immigration in which he may have brought his office into disrepute.

He also prioritised taking down ‘woke’ flags, cut funding for Durham Pride, and has continued to post nonsense on the internet. Unfortunately for him, but to the amusement of everyone else, his trolling has just become considerably less lucrative.
We’re sure people will be queueing around the block to get access to livestreams of Darren Grimes. Not these people, obviously.

“Council allowances are hardly riches.”
Are you kidding me?
You earn £40,550 from Durham County Council. The median annual pay in County Durham is £32,347 for full-time employees and £13,980 for part-time employees.
How many hours a week do you actually work to deserve that…

You were sacked from your TV job
Now you're begging people for money.
You care about money not people
It's very sad. But HILARIOUS

Karma is when you increase council tax for the 32,000 poorest families in the third poorest area in the country and then you lose your own income source. https://t.co/xY2raeiOx9

Getting the sack from a joke of a TV channel does not count as "giving uo a TV gig" ♂️ https://t.co/SPAnBev55n

Grimes comes out finally to bitch about the rules that existed before he decided to use public office to grift.
So far he's used to shit on the police in the county he serves, ignore the constituents living there, and spends all day shitposting about unrelated matters.
Cunt. https://t.co/jQKKubzNL9— Hatz (@DevilHatman) September 27, 2025

If you wanted to serve your community, you wouldn't be snivelling about the money.
Anyway, isn't it time that you took a reduction to make those DOGE savings we were all promised?
You do remember that you are going to be delivering massive savings, don't you?

Actually social media per click payments economy should be discouraged if not stopped completely.
Much of the misinformation and hate spreading is because of this click bait money.
Politicians, foreign meddlers and evil players have been using 'influencers' to peddle narratives.— Qurious (@Citizen_Qurious) September 27, 2025

In conclusion –
Support your work? You are paid to do a job and by all accounts there is very little evidence of you doing anything at it. Quit the grift and get on with the job you were somehow elected to do
