If that wide tongued liar gets into any kind of real power, the UK deserves everything it gets.

Yup. Thickos who gave us Boris Johnson jumping on board with yet another charlatan. Farage will bring us Trump-like chaos and then thickos will whinge he deceived them… and turn around and vote for the next charlatan.

He’s gonna win purely because of immigration, then completely ruin the country even worse whilst probably doing nothing about immigration. But at least he’ll make more money for himself and his friends.

Labour are literally in the driving seat. The main issue for voters is immigration. Do something you clowns

Democracy gives you Brexit and trump.
Voters should have to pass a basic intelligence test to be allowed to vote.

After the Brexit disaster I don’t understand how anyone can vote for him.
Even if you agree with Reform’s policies, it’s clear he’s really dishonest and untrustworthy so you be pretty sure you won’t get what you’re voting for,
EgoCity on
Dumb polls, this always happens early in governments and means absolutely nothing. The only government this didn’t happen to, in my adult life, was the early years of Blair.
The first few years is always like this, I’ll be impressed if it’s like the just before an election, I very much doubt it will be.
FreakyGhostTown on
We’re going to keep dismissing it till the next GE and then all pretend to be baffled as how the country voted Reform in.
The message couldn’t be clearer, the country voted for Brexit to reduce migration. 2023 had 1.3 million arrive in the UK, 2025 is set to be the biggest year for boat migrants so far.
If you don’t want a Reform majority, reduce migration now and stop the boats, it’s that simple.

Tories did more harm to themselves than any other party could have. Labour got in because the Tories can’t lead and have done just as bad a job as the Tories did.
So the question is what’s the alternatives? Lib Dems want to go back into the EU so that alienates half the country.
The green party would cripple most business with it’s plans to cut emissions even though the UK is a microscopic contributor.
Reform is the only one close to labour or Tories
Am I missing a party?

I live in South Wales. We’ve had a left wing Labour government for decades, and it has given us remarkably little evidence that a more left wing version of Labour actually does much other than paying public sector workers slightly more, expanding out the bureaucracy and adding on to the regulatory burden.
It is also incredibly obvious here that the Tories do not have a single iota of a clue how to deal with the systematic economic challenges in the valleys. Instead, they retreat to a small number of rural enclaves with a disproportionately large number of retired English people, and say that the real problem is that the evil Welsh Government doesn’t spend enough on them.
You then look at the other parties. Plaid are the left wing version of Labour on steroids, thinking that the problem is that we haven’t created enough bureaucracy, we need more regulations, need to slice every tiny pie to create another slice we can pretend is new activity, all while completely struggling to convince anyone that their real priority is the valleys when their real priority is obviously West Wales.
You have the Lib Dems who take all of the posturing of Plaid, add in the NIMBYism and ruralism of the Tories, and you end up with more of the status quo.
What we are being offered by every party is the inevitable continuation of relative decline. Our town centres getting worse. Our public services getting worse. Our Council Tax bills continuing to rise. Buses getting cut.
The greatest lie in our politics at the moment is that democracy is offering us a real choice. It isn’t. We are just being offered the same packet of crisps in different coloured bags.
Everyone knows Farage is a liar. Everyone knows his policy platform is a crock of shite. Everyone knows his candidates will be a disaster.
Farage is a blunt instrument, directed towards a Westminster and Cardiff bay establishment. People dont particularly care which party or politicians get hit.
(I’m not voting Reform. I just get why people in shit valleys towns would)

If Reform would win, and immigration is Reforms largest political device, doesn’t that prove that there is an issue with immigration, or at least that people have an issue with it?
Genuine question.

Nah huge numbers will say they’ll vote reform but chicken out in the moment and vote Tory as the devil they know. Vote split, Labour reign.
Longjumping_Kiwi8118 on
Yup.
Due to boomers and gen x sadly with education at GCSE or lower.
This is down to media propaganda mostly and poor Labour government policies thus far.
The media turned on Labour within a _month_ of being elected and public opinion has dropped since that point.
It’s not a coincidence.

It’s wild how quickly people forget the chaos of the last decade and latch onto the next populist with empty promises. At this point, it feels like we’re stuck in a loop of self-inflicted disasters.

Its absolutely mad to me that the country went from taking the piss out of Liz Truss and the lettuce to this in this span of time.
Liz Truss and that budget is nothing compared to what you’ll get here.
The people that vote from him better not even think about moaning and doing shocked Pikachu faces afterwards when they start coming after the minimum wage and the NHS. We’ll all be pointing at you and quite rightfully saying „told you so“.

Just like how you’re not allowed to vote until you’re 18, you should not be allowed to vote again after 70.

If that’s correct we are, as a country, as stupid as I feared we were. If we are ever dim enough to vote Reform into power, we thoroughly deserve the shitstorm that will inevitably follow.
thefogdog on
Whilst I doubt this would ever happen, Labour and the Tories only have themselves to blame.
The Tories could have stayed in power indefinitely, given how woeful their opposition has been in the past 20 years, if they just ran a half decent government, reduced pressure on the NHS and at least did something on migration.
Instead, they themselves kept voting in some of the worst politicians to be leader that our country has ever seen. On top of that, they have the most out of touch PR and batshit ideas. Didn’t help either that they handled covid in the most incompetent way possible.
You’d think then it’d be piss easy for Labour. Just tax the ultra rich, ensure people’s benefits and health service are up to scratch and again, do the bare minimum on immigration. Nope. Shat the bed repeatedly so that it’s more shit than bed at this point.
It’s hard to blame the general population when our voting options are so fucking dire. Is it too much to ask for a politician who wants to HELP PEOPLE? And who isn’t a boot-licking, fame-seeking, money-grabbing parasite?

We’ve got a choice, around the same time as the general election our mortgage is up for renewal and due to some luck it’s either upgrade somewhere nicer or move abroad.

People think all politicians are lying scum who do absolutely nothing for anyone but themselves and are all the same, no matter what party they represent.
As long as Farage keeps giving easy answers people want to hear, there’s every chance people who started off skeptics of Reform, or even downright hated them, will end up going ‘screw it, he can hardly be any worse than the rest of them’ when election day comes.
