Reform will be getting my vote and most I know are planning to do the same. Not only for the illegal immigration issue, but just because of being fed up with the nonsense in politics, like trump says in the USA, it's high time the UK put itself first. We also need a party that will look after the working masses, the average man or woman, neither Labour or the Conservatives can be trusted to do that.

Labour would court adolf hitler if they thought it would get them more votes, they are the whore mongers of politics in the UK, The tories try to be middle of the road, and court everyone, but end up pleasing no one. The danger is the enclaves of 'diversity' like London, where ethnic majorities have changed the face of boroughs and politics, and not for the better. This interview with Lee Anderson shows that there are some politicians who will NOT put their personal advancement within the system first, and represent those who voted for them.

The 'phobic' expression is something bandied about these days. not because of hatred or discrimination, but because you have criticised something. 'I dont think you should be giving 12 year old confused kids puberty blockers' = 'You are transphobic' 'I dont think people should be breaking the law chanting anti semitic slogans, threatening MPs , and projecting hatred on the sides of government buildings' = 'You are Islamophobic' To remove the whip, effectively removing him from the tory party, for stating facts is......

Stonepark Posted February 27, 2024 Report Share Posted February 27, 2024 (edited) If you want Reform, you have to vote for it, voting for the mainstream parties or abstaining from voting will never change anything.

Good shot? Posted February 29, 2024 Report Share Posted February 29, 2024 I think lee Anderson should be Independent, that way he can still support whatever policy or line he wishes without the negative actions he has gone through. He will still get massive support/ votes. It appears to me to date that he favours Tory in that he is not over critical of his awful (imo) treatment. He will in effect be a "Reform" option but still able to support the Tories as he still appears to want to. I think he would be stifled whichever party he chose to join. That is the nature of politics today wherever you look. Once again I despair.😏 will in effect be a "Reform" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All allocated Reform candidates are on the website, under Who's my PPC and they are aiming for one for every seat (400 or so already allocated). If there isn't one for your constituency yet, why not apply to be the candidate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, maybe not, you can garantee your statement is correct if you don't vote for change. Voting a new party is very likely to make changes, even if it's only in roads and indirectly forcing the larger partys to make concessions, providing reform get enough support, or win, which I conced is unlikely on their first go. Either way there's nothing to loose, the tories aren't beating Labour this time anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
