Its a real difficult decision a vote for reform kicks the tories into touch but lets starmer into number 10 which is worrying. He wont last long as leader, Rayner and some of the other cronies are hard left so starmer will be outed and get replaced and then we will have real problems. One news programe reported on Starmer apparently saying they would get on and build over everything, of course we know that they hate and spite us country bumpkins but they will house all the illegals and let even more in i am sure. Like i have said before everyone forgets who paid them during lockdown which has caused most of the crap that we have experienced of late but we were warned what would happen and dont forget starmer wanted us locked down for an awfull lot longer as well. The economy is pretty stagnent at the moment but what does'nt get mentioned much is that we have gone from the seventh largest manufacturing country to the fourth largest it will take a while but we will get the benefits eventually from this, Inflation is now virtually back to normal, The Bank of England should have reduced interest rates a little but I reckon this has also been a political decision by the BOE who should remain impartial but quite obviously isn't, Liz Truss did have some good ideas but it was the Spivs in the city controlling the markets that did'nt like it, We need even more manufacturing and more agriculture and a bit less off the city interferring and betting on everything. We might have a big service sector but their margins are utter crap at least with manufacturing you can control your margins which will always be better than the service sector. In reality i think if you are not a Labourite you have to vote for the Tories if enough people do this we may at least end up with a coalition that would keep Labour on the straight an narrow.
I would love to see reform get some power but in all honesty it aint going to happen this time around and you maybe sure if Starmer gets in they will change the voting age and alter the boundries or the way we vote so we can never get rid of them! I am still politically homeless but i think i will have to vote blue with a very heavy heart.
That's a pretty bang on post 👍

That was a big move it's bloomin expensive to live in Denmark- fair play to them though.
sure was ... he looked at it 5 years 'fore he went and decided against it, then damn me 5 years later he upped and went ... sold everything here and not seen him since :rolleyes: .. probably took a couple of £mil with him though ... had a well established biz in Bristol and £700k hutch

I have always voted Conservative, but have become more and more disillusioned with the move to the left and ever increasing need they feel to interfer in my life. My current MP is Suella Bravermann (who I would vote for), but due to boundary changes we have someone else. He has not canvassed me for my vote, although mail shotted me twice. The first time forgetting to mention he was the Conservative candidate!
I think there is no chance for a Conservative government next time, so am inclined to vote Reform. The candidate has been out canvassing locally, although to be honest is not that inspiring. My thoughts are, when the Conservative party rebuilds after the election I hope a big enough vote for Reform will wake them up to the possibility that not everyone wants a choice between two Labour parties. If I just vote Conservative as usual I could be taken that the only way to win is to move further to the left.
Unfortunately I think the next parliment will be even worse than the last few and we will end up more in debt, worse economy and fewer freedoms, but I can't see any way of stopping it.

Next labour government are pretty much just soft Tory in many ways. Everything has slipped to the right a bit

thats more or less how i see it all feel fairly certain reform wont win the election but voting for reform would take votes away from the tories. there has been some bad times through their term in power and certainly covid was a big upset for many and cost a huge amount to get through. i have voted conservative pretty much all my working life and my memorys of when labour have been in power are not good at all i wont vote reform because i think farage is all wind and piss he talks a good talk but if push came to shove he would be clueless. i am now retired after working from 15 year old and pretty much knackered. will probably vote conservative again as i feel they are the ones i feel comfortable with if i was younger and still working i am not sure who i would go for at all.

I certainly agree that a vote for Reform is the only way to say to the other parties that you don’t represent me!!
We are heading for a complete sh!t show under Stammer and only a major reality check will bring the Conservative Party back to being conservative.
The more Government intervention in anything, the worse outcomes we get. Won’t be sad to see the back of Rishi but can’t see there being anybody left in the blue party to pick up the pieces for the future. Reform is going to become the New Conservative Party

Strange times.
It appears the "hate/blame the Tories" has overtaken every sense of reason.
How long till "get labour out" kicks in?

I’m politically un represented

I like a free hands off market with some protections against cartels etc and some protection of wages but the market has to dictate that. We’ve seen huge inflation so prices gone up 15% etc but now it’s dropped to 2% wage increases will be like oh 2% that’s ok. Abd in our game it’s hard to get an extra 15% especially when pricing 12 months in advanced

I full support nhs saved my life once, delivered my 3 kids and wish it was better funded and somewhat left to its own devices with maybe performance bonuses for efficiency and best treatment but not privatised

I think we need a solution to immigration and the segregation of these communities and the erosion of our own culture, we are very flexible but the enclaved minorities are very rigid so we compromise. Hence we end up with extreme communities but again somewhat a product of empire etc

There should be no benefits housing etc for undocumented economic migrants, plenty old army bases and covid beds around fences up work gangs on community improvement works etc until shown to be valuable asset on fixed income gov dictates

All these Albanian Romanian Nigerian Somali known organised crime gangs should just be good bye not welcome anymore back to your own country we appear powerless to do anything to stop them.

Benefits to help the truly needy but at the level
Of subsidence not sky tv 80” telly takeaway smoking weed all day half min wage maybe, needs to be some motivation to work.

Better funded police as crime affects us especially in our game, criminals taking p1ss at moment in broad daylight as coppers all lanky streaks of p1ss. Should be fast track ex forces with forces command structure in police and some proper sentences and no tvs, phones, gyms etc in prison lock them up 23 hours a day feed them nutrient mush prison is a holiday camp with an university education in crime currently no deterrent. Gotta be a few inhabitant islands etc and why they can’t use signal yammers is beyond me.

We act like a big economy yet our standard of living is shocking compared to similar level in states with their 18-22% tax etc they’ve all boats, 4x4, lake houses and 5 bed 10 acres for $200k homes. (Not the primes states I know)

I should support tories reading that but can’t forgive them for Brexit and all the complicit deals in covid, I as a business director got chuff all not a penny but kept working everyone else sat home got paid or defrauded for a mint. Self employed lads still working for me got paid thousands onto of still earning such a sh1t show.

Farage is a numpty can’t stand him especially now he’s bandwagon’d onto reform all show no go. He’s a big mouth protester with all the bad points to hand but no real solutions how to fix it.

Bin head for me then I guess

What do you reform supports make of farages support for putin saying he was justified in invading Ukraine because of nato expansion?
If you ignore msm there was a lot going on by Ukraine previously

I listened to what he said and he didn't say he supported Putin. He condemed him for invading, but said we (Nato, EU) had given him the excuse that by our expansion eastward he could say we were coming for Russia and he had to invade to defend Russia from threats.

Just started listening to a podcast with Robert Kennedy junior.
The West apparently gave Gorbachev guaranted that when he dismantled the iron curtain nato would not move into any of the countries.
That went out of the window, the west have a lot to answer for the western war machine benefits hugely from any new members as they all have to use standard nato munitions etc.
As I've said previously do not believe the bs your pedaled do some research and take your blinkers off
