A survey of Conservative members in early October suggests that swathes would be happy if the leader of the party made an agreement with Nigel Farage to "work together".
I am certainly NOT defecting to Reform, I shall continue to wear my blue rosette with pride.

Defection is not necessary, just a joint effort.

We maybe in 'Pitchy Seas' but we have not been holed beneath the waterline.

 

[Spiderman]

Certainly not Labour !

We all are cognisant of the fact that there will be more tax rises, and more broken promises in the forthcoming Budget.

So no is the answer

The Labour mantra is "The 14 years of Tory rule" etc etc etc.
We were elected FOUR times during that period.

Well done. Nothing to do with no viable opposition then. Liebore will be ousted, Tories are toast, Reform will be the next Govt, but what mess will they inherit? You constantly regale Reform for no policies, waffle, false promises, didn't the Tories(& liebore) do & still do the same? Us old gits won't set the future the kids see what's going on & they don't like it. 2 party system is dead & it's a long way back for you both.

Our views on the Conservative Party are not aligned.
The way to rebuild credibility is not to indulge populist economics like Reform, but to uphold the principles expressed by Kemi Badenoch at 'Conference' that have guided Conservative policy for decades ie sound money, prudence, and responsibility.
Conservatism succeeds when it is honest about reality and brave enough to face it. The alternative, the populist delusion that we can spend more, tax less, and still balance the books, always ends in crisis.
