"Quite frankly I hope Reform don't do as well as predicted. The other parties are pretty grim but Reform is nothing but a cult surrounding a very dodgy character." I agree, it's also a a massive mess and all councils currently being ran by them are sinking ever further into mess. | |||

They're an absolute fucking shambles and an expensive shambles at that. But Turkeys will still vote for Christmas. | |||

"Labour are going to be smashed like a tomato today Yep hopefully the start of Starmers downfall 🙏" The last thing the country needs is Starmer ousted - we need stability after the last lot changing leaders every 5 minutes, plus for the brain dead that voted for Reform, getting rid of Starmer would spur them on to become even more right wing, and Fuhrage won’t shut up about it for years | |||

"This is not a national election, it won't affect Westminster. This is your local councils, and if you've paid attention to the councils that have been under the control of reform for the last year, you really shouldn't want them to win" i don't disagree with your second sentence. It is, however, only fair to point out that none of the party leaders seem to have received the memo on the first. Make no mistake: local elections are used as a signal to national government, always have been, and Westminster knows it. They're all canvassing support in the local elections. This may delude some of the local candidates into believing that they're far more important than they really are. They will receive a sharp correction when they attend their first council meeting and discover that bin collections and potholes are prominent features on the agenda. | |||

"Vote for who the fuck you want. Reform if you're an anarchist. Green if you want a cheaper, easier way to bigger tits. " You misspelled fascist antichrist No genuine anarchist would vote for Reform, unless you’re the walking contradiction that is John Lydon, the same man who once sang about anarchy in the UK while railing against the political class. An anarchist, by definition, believes society should function without central government or imposed authority. Make your homework on what means what before you put your stamp down. | |||

"5 years ago everyone thought Farage was an idiot, and rightly so, but now everyone is voting for this idiot, the Reform party won’t deliver nothing that they promise, already their causing problems, do u honestly think they will also stop channel crossings & deport them when the High Courts stop any government due to their human rights, wake up !!!!!!" Nothing to with Human Rights and the ECHR. More to do with our place within the,United Nations and the Refugee Council. Dont forget the Human Rights Act is my Act.It protects me and my family. The European Human Rights Act is an extension of that. If we leave we join Belarus and Russia as our friends in the North. | |||

" All the parties have elected leaders. Voted in by their members. Except one. Reform. The party formed by a handful of extremely wealthy individuals has never elected its leader. " The so called Reform Party is nothing but a Faragite Cult. Essential founded by Farage and his adoring minions. Tice was its leader but quickly stood down to make way for the Farage. No election. Here in Wales Reform didn't have a leader [wonder what happened to Farage's pal Nathan Gill?] then suddenly Farage foists the former Conservative leader of Barnet Council as Reform's top dog in Wales. No election. Just a fait accompli from the Fuhrage. This puppet appointee, Dan Thomas, is Welsh by birth but that's about it. Had about as much charisma as a dead . No wonder he is being referred to as the 'Plastic Taffy' | |||

An entire school course, devoted to explaining the structure of government, judiciary and public institutions, with exams they were supposed to pass, should surely instil some kind of critical awareness of the political system of the country they live in. And yet ... What The Fuck Has Happened, America? i suppose there are several issues involved. First: you can take a horse to water ... but if it wants to sit in the back row wanking, looking at comic books, flicking ink pellets, and dreaming of being a rock star, there really isn't a lot a teacher can do about it. That's a lost opportunity for a fair slice of future voters, who are fallow ground for any huckster that comes along and tells a good tale. But as for the rest of those kids, all political parties recognise what a fruitful environment the school is for nurturing political attitudes. They always have; that's why it's such a political football. The Nazis, among others, knew it very well. For politicians, there is a choice between three alternatives: 1. Get their own ideology entrenched in the curriculum. And there is always as ideology; no such thing as neutral. 2. Try policing the system through influencing the curriculum, staff appointments, and availability of educational materials. 3. The last resort: claim that education should be "non partisan", so politics must not play any part at all in education. Currently, of course, US MAGA is ploughing through their education system with 1 & 2, while as far as i know the UK is still stuck on option 3. So much for education. The disgraceful state of the mainstream media, and the way in which they have abegnated their responsibilities, is of course enough for a far longer post than this one. And then there is social media, which denies that it has any responsibilities for anything at all apart from making money. | |||

"And just remember if you are voting Reform to stop the boats because Nidge says he will then just remember that before Brexit we could send the boats back. Because of Brexit we had to leave the Dublin accord and the leave vote helped achieve that. Remember the Calais Camp ? That went in January 2020. After 31st january 2020 we were unable to send the boats back and the people smugglers,French police,Nigel Farage and The Conservative Government knew this. So dont blame Labour for the boats. Blame the Referendum and its outcome. " Exectly right mate... though a lot will still worship the runt and his failed ex tory mates. | |||

Labour will lose local council seats, as every government does in mid term local or by-elections. As the political landscape is so split, it just might not be so bad for Labour as predicted. Starmer, might just be around for a while. | |||

"Keir gone by the weekend or the “ We are listening , we inherited …….”trope? Any old excuse shite will be trotted out. Luckily for Keir there isn't a worthy replacement in their ranks. He managed to keep Burnham out." Andy Burnham has, during the last few days, been cleared by Labour's executive, to stand for parliament. If he does return via a by-election, he could well end up as PM before the 2029 election. Could be a massive blow to Farage's bubble. Although Kemi has many good points she could well be replaced as leader of the Conservatives by someone a bit more dynamic. Another blow to the faragites. Wishful thinking I know but anything is possible. | |||

"For the first time ever, I spoilt my ballot paper today. Drew a big, thick, diagonal line across the paper with "NOPE" written above it. I don't trust any of them any more. They're all in it for themselves. All they've done for the last 30 years, is make most of us poorer. None of them are leaders, just bosses trying to micromanage every aspect of our lives (for our own safety, of course). Meanwhile, the money just keeps on drifting upwards and upwards, into the hands of the billionaire oligarchs, who - through their corruption of politicians across the planet - have effectively formed an unelected, global, shadow regime."

Which hasn’t worked We won’t mention the U turns Or that starmar has allowed himself repeatedly look like the clown he is on the world stage Or Labours pre election campaign where they promised truth! And scandal after scandal from labour ministers Labour lied their way to leadership And have not delivered a single thing from their manifesto and will leave the uk in a worse state than they found it exactly the same as they did last time and the time before How long is reasonable before we should see change for the better in your opinion ? Because since labour got elected i can honestly say I’ve not seen a single thing improve Bills up Taxes up Everything is inflating and not a single positive change I’m not saying anything is easily fixed But Labour just keep adding to the problems instead of fixing them | |||

Gilt borrowing at 30 year highs, means deficit targets will be missed. One in one out boat migrant policy is a total failure. Inflation is well above target. Growth targets will also be missed.

"I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again… The surge in support for Reform (and Greens) is the result of what the Tories and Labour have failed to do, listen to, and take a accountability for… over at least two decades. Brexit was ‘a warning shot’ that signalled a changing voter mood, expectations, and satisfaction. But, instead of listening and changing, the ‘political-class’ merely ignored the electorate and doubled down on both their unpopular agendas and we-know-best ‘progressive’ approach. Farage and Polanski are not winning support per se, the main parties are driving their supporters away. What is unfolding is a democratic-revolution; a (thankfully peaceful) desire by many to ‘overthrow’ an establishment that is no longer trusted, seen to be representative, nor tackling the issues important to the everyday Jo(e).

Farage and Polanski are not winning support per se, the main parties are driving their supporters away. What is unfolding is a democratic-revolution; a (thankfully peaceful) desire by many to ‘overthrow’ an establishment that is no longer trusted, seen to be representative, nor tackling the issues important to the everyday Jo(e). Correct assessment x" Don’t disagree with any of that. It’s just a pity it is the abhorrent Reformation who are, currently, the beneficiaries | |||

"Well looks like Farage has crushed Liebour and any other opposition If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever. . I didn't express a view. I simply stated a fact 😁 Your choice of words was telling." Because your always looking for confrontation. Yawn | |||

"We can all vote today because its a democracy. We can all vote in a General Election because its a democracy. All the parties have elected leaders. Voted in by their members. Except one. Reform. The party formed by a handful of extremely wealthy individuals has never elected its leader. WE ALL AGREE THAT HE IS THE GREATEST LEADER SINCE MAGGIE, IF NOT YOU MUST BE DEAF AND BLIND. " You think Farage is a great leader Mr Shouty. Either you wrote this as a total tongue-in-cheek joke, or you are deaf and blind. He would not be fit to tie Maggie's shoe laces. Plus if she was still around she would probably dismiss him with a swift whack of her handbag. She didn't suffer fools gladly. | |||

"5 years ago everyone thought Farage was an idiot, and rightly so, but now everyone is voting for this idiot, the Reform party won’t deliver nothing that they promise, already their causing problems, do u honestly think they will also stop channel crossings & deport them when the High Courts stop any government due to their human rights, wake up !!!!!! Nothing to with Human Rights and the ECHR. More to do with our place within the,United Nations and the Refugee Council. Dont forget the Human Rights Act is my Act.It protects me and my family. The European Human Rights Act is an extension of that. If we leave we join Belarus and Russia as our friends in the North. " . Human rights??? Like illegal teenage immigrants accommodated in residential areas against vast fears of local residence? Or courts now with no juries. Just tried by authority? Or a Pm who refuses to answer any questions in any location at any time? Etc etc | |||

The current one has managed 2 months so far, we'll see how much further he gets. Oh, did I mention the appalling incompetence?

Rather than reflect on why that might be and actually do something positive about it, insulting people is the order of the day. As if that won't make his supporters harden against you even more. | |||

It's about people being so fed up of the current system they will vote for anyone who says they will change it.

"13 percent of degree level educated would consider voting Reform. Not saying you need a degree to succeed but it is an indicator that many of their voters are low achievers. And many of them happy to blame foreigners for their own failure. Saddos who spend their time climbing lamposts to fly tatty Chinese made flags instead of bettering themselves. It seems like you think they should be denied the vote. No, I didn’t vote reform, but i do have some sympathy when they’re faced with attitudes like uours" Sneering down your nose at the "plebs" is a tried and tested political strategy. It never actually works, but that's beside the point. | |||

"You must be horrified when asylum seekers are badmouthed? Nice gotcha attempt. No, I don't care about asylum seekers as they aren't British citizens. They're not our problem and shouldn't come here. ... Thank you. You have just showed a complete contempt for a core historic value of these islands. Illogical. Your Britishness is somewhat lacking. And here comes the moral grandstanding right on cue. Every time I interact with someone like you it validates what I already believe. Thanks!" ... .. Ditto. | |||

"When you're despotic, psychotic, politically incoherent, you can't formulate political argument, shout fascist at those you disagree with in a classic display of projection, you're not going to listen to reason. That I'm afraid to say is the modern left." When you're despotic, psychotic, politically incoherent, you can't formulate political argument, shout woke lefties at those you disagree with in a classic display of projection, you're not going to listen to reason. That I'm afraid to say is the modern right. See what I did there? | |||
