Reform are a joke. Populist, unachievable pandering. Overall I agree something has to be done about mass immigration, but they are an amateur set up full of undesirables and no achievable policies. My point is that people who are actually affected in their towns and cities by the negative...

Absolutely, challenge away. But there is a trope of the left and liberal mindset that “everybody I know thinks XYZ is stupid, so it won’t happen”. Conveniently forgetting that everybody they know shares similar viewpoints, and doesn’t account for millions who don’t. It’s like how most Brits...

I agree with several of yours. I don’t have any of my own, I think we’ve let the situation spiral and Brexit has done for us. I don’t think Reform are the answer, but I think millions do and we’ll see that in the next election.

Yes, it’s all fun and games until Reform do really well in the next election because of the very things people are mocking. Then we can all (all six of us) sit here in a liberal circle-jerk and have a good laugh at those ignorant fools while Reform form a coalition by gaining millions of votes...

And I think this is the key. The number of times in recent years I’ve seen us just crumble and lose any attacking intention are many. We have a lot more spirit to go with improved skill.

Immigration needs to be cut. That’s the starting point for the discussion. Every major party agrees on this. Immigration is not a 100% negative. I don’t think many people believe this. The NHS would collapse without immigrant labour. But nearly a million year incoming net is not sustainable...

Awful woman, also voted for her to my regret. As useful as a chocolate teapot.

I can’t believe we’re even having this conversation though. The guy is scum and should be in prison, in my view.

I don’t think he has any answers about that. I think their supporters are of the opinion that less is better to stem the tide, and go from there. I don’t disagree with them on that. As to how they actually do it, it would start with an exit from the ECHR, which I can’t support without a robust...

I imagine it would feel similar to how the people of Runcorn and Helsby feel, having had their Labour MP put in the clink for beating up a constituent.

Not a Reform voter, but it’s because their whole platform is tackling excessive immigration. Something successive governments have failed to do successfully, so they are looking for an alternative.

No idea… but nice memories of TK Maxx as a teen with paper round money buying a Ben Sherman shirt and thinking I was the BUSINESS!

Genuinely laughed reading that, thanks @Bozza

Not according to me? I never said this?

Excellent point. Also, what does any of that mean? That shit that makes my eyes glaze over. Make it Special? What?! Bring it a birthday cake? Also Aim High, Never Give Up… and Exceed Expectations. Hang on, how could I possibly exceed my expectations when I’m aiming high and never giving up...

Farage is a prat, and I personally don’t think Reform are the answer, so you won’t see me going to bat for them specifically. My point is that I can see why people do, and it’s not because they’re closeted British Nazis or uneducated northerners. It’s because they live in areas which have...

Or other undocumented migrants - that figure is “new blood”, doesn’t take into account those who have overstayed visas or entered the country undocumented by any other means.

Be good though if you addressed my points and left out the emojis, and had an adult discussion.

Too late, this thread and the Labour thread are full of the same posters saying exactly this. In the Labour thread one poster just referred to them as “Retard”. A lot of us agree with the overall message. Huge net migration to the UK is unsustainable for the size of the nation, the housing...

Yep, I always watch the cup final :)
