See this sort of sh!te? That's why social media has you convinced of your silent majority.

And as you've posted this in the UK General Election thread, it's all irrelevant anyway. In case you hadn't noticed the Conservatives are taking an absolute pasting, whilst Reform are relying on the human form of Pepe the Frog to try and get somewhere which isn't working.

So - Braverman goes for the concept of a New Tory Party headed by Farage by a merger of the current Conservatives and Reform

It will have to be a take over of teh Tories by Reform along with a name change and a lot of PR to look like a merger
but it HAS to be a takeover so that it results in the current Reform UK being the remaining entity

You know - the Reform UK that is not a political party but is a company where the major (???) shareholder is Farage
which is a damn good investment for him

I believe that Richard Tice is (one of ) the biggest donors

Anyway - the ambition looks like being for the UK being the first country to be run by a limited company.
Which sound like very very good busines sense for a certain group of people

Oh dear. A racist misogynist is running for the racist misogynistic party.

And Farage has been calling out Sunak for not understanding the culture of the country.

The defence of the comments, by Reform UK are almost as bad as the original comments.

If they want to play with the big parties, then they have to be held to the same scrutiny and standards.

Reform versus Conservative.

Architect versus practioner. Of UK's demise.

Farage's decision to stand in Clacton might actually work in Starmer's favour.

No! no! no! Let me speak!

You see if Nige is popular it will push up the predicted vote share for reform but push *down* the vote share for the Conservatives as Reform won't be taking votes from Labour, Green or Lib Dem supporters. A few weeks ago Electoral Calculus was predicting 39.4% for Conservative, 14.8% for reform and 38.3%. If Nige pushes that reform swing up a few percentage points, Labour win.

What a shambles. Too scared to answer a basic question.

Everyone knows labour will win, even Farage has said so.

It matters not whether labour have 50 or 500 majority

That’s simply not true.

That’s simply not true.

Which bit

Labour will win?

Farage has said so?

Or the number for majority ?

The majority number not mattering.
it would be awful to have any government with a 300+ majority.
You need a strong opposition and some internal pressure to keep a government focused.

Well it's likely they will have one of the biggest majorities in UK history
