twenty Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 A new Farage led party would attract a good number of votes I reckon, compared to what's on offer now. Would certainly jolt the current incumbents and opposition into action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why people will only vote for two partys when they're the same side of a coin on so many issues is beyond me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Labour had the majority so Blair could do as he wished, Farage can get fired up knowing that nothing is going to come from it, it would be a wasted vote, protest vote maybe at best. I've just clicked on a video, Farage reaction to the party, he's just rambling on like everyone else trying to get air time over something that happened 12 months ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way our country is going any vote will be wasted anyway if nothing changes, it's going down the toilet. The only good thing to happen recently is brexit and that only happened due to farage.

He definitely drove the Brexit bus, but could he run the country? In all the other time he's been in politics what else has he done? It's a bit like the Green party or Lib dems, the parties are there but what do they actually get done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again you might very well be correct, on the other hand we won't know unless we give them a shot, if people voted in large enough numbers fir them, it would at least force the other partys to make some much needed changes, even if reform didn't get in. It was those exact circumstances that led to brexit. People just need to stop thinking its eith labour or cons at the ballot box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine it just being like the BNP, they would say they'll stop illegal immigration, make a few other claims or promises but how much would actually get done? We couldn't just give them a shot because it could be a disaster, some will say it couldn't be worse, but it probably could be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the bnp is a fair comparison at all, I am absolutely against any party with an agenda like that. They really couldn't be worse than Blair was, of that I'm convinced. Would they be better than what we currently have, imo, maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he's full of hot air, maybe he's not, but our system needs a radical shake up and that won't happen under labour or the Conservatives.
