Reform, and the death of the Tory Party

[briantrumpet]

Based on the information above he thinks he won an English election last week.
Anyone who thinks they won a national election last week is a deluded fool.
Reform didn’t even win the most council seats.

What Farage says and what he knows might not be the same thing. He's a conman. And a liar.

All's not well in Worcestershire's Reform collective

TL;DR Alan Amos joined Reform from the Conservatives and was elected to the County Council. He has now moved to become leader of the County Council displacing Joe Monk, herself another ex Conservative. Monk and her son Ashley, who is also a councillor for Reform, have now been suspended from the party.

For those not familiar with Mr Amos, have a look at his Wikipedia page. He's been a Conservative MP, a Conservative city councillor, a Labour city councillor, then moved back to the Conservatives when Labour wouldn't make him Council leader and is now in Reform. If you want an example of a professional politician in the worst sense of the word this is him.

Excellent. Maybe it'll encourage the press to keep on the case too.

Good

Just spicing it up? Maybe he's very good at keeping a straight face.

Well, if we rule out racism and anti-Semitism, hmm... no can't think of any reason really.

No, you must be mistaken, it is 80 year olds with cardboard signs that carry the flame of anti semitism.

The "Allez Opi-Omi" girl is now 80 year old?
Yowza!

Tremendous montage, putting a picture of a fat ugly man wearing an ill-fitting suit in front of a tweet bemoaning UK citizens being fatter, uglier and poorly dressed compared with those in continental countries.

Uh-oh

“I am not a crook!”
Has a certain ring to it. 😉

It's all going so terribly well, don't you think, old chap?

Wonder if Faräge's change of story related to the report of him buying a fairly expensive property?

14 May 2026 Nigel Farage bought £1.4m property shortly after receiving £5m gift

14 May 2026 Nigel Farage now says £5m from crypto billionaire was ‘reward’ for Brexit push
