Reform, and the death of the Tory Party

[Pross]

Still waiting....

What more proof can you have than people who want Reform policies vote reform and those that don't, don't. Do you want me to also proove that black is black and white is white?

Rupert Lowe doesn’t think a by-election during a busy holiday season is going to go down well.

This is the thing, you want to be a disruptor, get prepared to be disrupted by the next disrupter.

Population of Clacton will be busy in Benidorm.

Prepare for a small amount of tactical voting. I reckon I would actually vote Tory to keep him out.

Reform are offering to pay for the by-election, since Ed Davy called them out.
Is it even allowed?
I wonder if they’ve asked the Reform members yet.

One of those members is a Mr V Putin, who might be very happy to pay.

 

[briantrumpet]

OK, fair play to Badenoch on this one.

Labour Greens and Libs should all stand aside.

I wonder what McSweeney is advising Starmer to say. Something about not getting involved in the internal politics of another party?

“This is a desperate stunt from Nigel Farage and it's obvious why he's doing it - he is up to his neck in sleaze.

"Politics should be about improving the lives of millions of people, not about personal gain, not about hiding dodgy donations, and I think the public will see this for exactly what it is."

Perhaps he ought to stand for leader of the Labour Party, with forthright views like that.

- I see it as more of chasing what the voters want.

Or what @Stevo 666 wants? Common sense innit Stevo?
Anyhow here's a Leftie for you Stevo.

I suspect all the other parties might not participate in this one, if they believe another one is on the way later this year.

Count Binface it is then.

So, where is their (Reform's) vote coming from? Is it that thousands of people have never voted previously and have now started to vote, and, are voting Reform?

Largely the Conservative party or have you not noticed that where Reform do well, the Conservatives do badly and that most of Boris Johnsons's cabinet are now in Reform.

 

[Beebo]

Count Binface it is then.

The deposit is only £500 so all sorts of odd balls could give it a whirl.
Al Murray tried before.
The deposit for London mayor is £10k, so less room for comedy acts.

Uh?! In the immortal words of Bruce Willis in Pulp Fiction, Vlad is broke babe, Vlad's broke.
No, I mean he's got slightly bigger concerns and is fitting extra locks on all the windows.
