D-Day May 7th Local Elections

Because Reform is just Brexit rebranded; performative culture-war patriotism and an unrealistic belief that cutting immigration will fix deep structural problems and reverse our economic decline - it's just another political project that will inevitably benefit wealthy backers far more than ordinary voters.

Why do you people always link Brexit and immigration with economics?

People voted Brexit and reject mass immigration and the scourge of illegals for reasons that have nothing to do with the economy.
Britain's decline in terms of economics was largely inevitable due to the rise of cheap products from abroad and the resulting virtual collapse of our manufacturing industries. It's a symptom of the new world.
The incompetence of politicians has added to the problem. We have allowed the welfare state to become an enormous burden at a time when we can least afford it. Mass immigration is a symptom of that, but one that could have been avoided if long term planning had been used instead of short term fixes.

There are still plenty of wealthy people in Britain. The poverty line from the left is exaggerated. Poverty has come to mean something very different from the days before the welfare state.

Where this country has declined most is in crime and culture. That is almost entirely down to immigration and the replacement of discipline and moral standards with the enablement of ignorance, lawlessness and victimhood.

The worrying trend, to me, is that the greens now have 309 seats up 255. Are their really that many 'ultra' loonies in the country. Who are they?

If Libor fall apart the Greens will win the next election with Milliband and Rayner defecting it might be interesting to see Green taxes. 👍

You seriously believe that Labour will win the next General Election! What on earth makes you think that?

You know why.

Delusional people are deluded.

I believe this election cycle is masking the true extent of Reform's rise. There are many areas that are not holding elections which would be happy hunting grounds for Farage and co.

Maybe, but, their votes have come from mostly young white people, imho. I can understand that as they are either fed up with 2 party state, or its peer voting. Not good.

There's a video on FB that shows a 'posh' white woman who's won in Hackney saying that the greens have to stamp out racism in Reform. The black reform candidate was pictured standing behind her.

It's a coalition of foreigners, ideologues and social outcasts.

The possibility might be that they want a better cleaner planet! D'oh!
 
Some interesting results. Suspect Labour are going to be potentially torn in half over this. Because they can either try to win back voters from Reform, or win back voters from the Greens. But they will struggle to get both.

At this stage, Burnham is probably their only chance of salvaging anything from the next GE. But Starmer is a literal skid mark that has resisted any and every challenege. If he is still in situ come the end of the month, they will leave him to be the fall guy come the next GE.

Seen more than a few 'soft left' Labour MP's coming out against him so lets see. Reckon Streeeting will be the one to go for it, purely because he has very little to lose now given his seat is a virtual guarantee for a loss. If he gets the top job, then they will parachute him into a safe seat.
 
I watched QT tonight because I'm travelling, and the BBC was in English at least, and I had to laugh at the obviously hand picked totally unrepresentative audience.
This is what Reform will be up against leading up to the election. Constant bias from the main channels, smears, lies and hypocrisy.

Most people see through all that crap now. They tried that carry on with Trump and look what happened. By all means continue doing it with farage. He loves it!
 
The last 40 years of centrist uni party slop is dead, it will take a military coup to remove Starmer, Reform did well, Greens not as good as they hoped, similar to Labour Corbyn at his peak.

Restore more than proved they're legit & will now spend the next couple of years eating reform alive to become the dominant political party going into the next general election.
