Reform might be getting a little too powerful for my liking. Thankfully the FPTP voting system will naturally prevent them from doing too well in the next election as this will always happen to a party who’s voter spread is evenly distributed across the country instead of having concentrated voter support in towns/cities. Funnily enough there was a referendum on changing to AV in 2011, yet less than 40% of the country even bothered turning up for that one. I can see why Brexit might have felt empowering for mindless, ignorant, and often privileged right-wing voters in the heat of the moment, who somehow manage to continue framing the decision as an ‘anti-establishment act’. In reality you cannot argue with the economic consequences of detaching yourself from your closely geographical neighbour & primary trading partner. It’s all there to be seen if you choose not to bury your heads in the sand. Why anyone would vote for a party that will simply accelerate the rate at which the rich accumulate wealth at the expense of rights and wages of working people by supporting free market deregulation under the guise of taking back control of our borders is an idiot.
