Who's this Reform lot, are they new? Reform of what?
Edit - anti immigration and climate bollocks, nice. I hope this is yet another time we follow suit, though that ship has probably sailed.

They used to be The Brexit Party, they just rebranded after Brexit happened. It's mostly just ex-UKIPers and disgraced ex-Tories.
They keep getting rid of their own members for being even vaguely racist, which is pretty lol considering racists are going to be their core voters. Even the Far Right have gone woke.![]()
I’ve just done this quiz to see who to vote for and these were the results:

I'm a twit
Prediction: we get five years of Starmer's Labour doing very little and we go full fash in 2029 under Farage's combined Reform/Tory party.
My choices had the Rejoin EU party up top. It really latches onto single issue stuff and has just demanded I "TELL MY CONGRESSMAN ABOUT CYPTO LEGISLATION!" I'll err ... get right on that.
87% EU People
84% Animal People
82% Green
82% Women's Equality Party (not sure how we got there. I told them women in the boardroom is irrelevant.
81% Lib Dems
Labour clocked in at 74%

Labour top with 83%, Tories bottom with 14%.
See you soon, lads.
Turns out I’m a massive lefty.
I’ve definitely moved more towards centre ground since Brexit and I’ve been pretty disgusted by the Tories over the past 10 years but I’m not sure I’m a full on Corbynite yet either. Lib Dem’s second, who if they had any chance of winning is who I would vote for much to I imagine Jim’s disgust.
Anyway still just planning on writing CUNT next to Liz Truss’s name at this point.
No idea what Volt are but just the name/logo seems like a party thats tricking you into voting for like 'Reinstate the Brownshirts'
I've no idea, but on the breakdown of things I agree with them on it was mostly just on Critical Race Theory in schools, taxing rich cunts more and not lettering people reject social housing only to go squatting in private property. Other that that, it's just my disinterest in plastic forks.
Edit: it turns out they're just a pro-EU party. Meh.

I always get Lib Dem on those things because I don't want to execute gay Rwandans.
Second was the rejoin the EU party, which was an odd double whammy.
The Newsnight bit questioning why the British Prime Minister sacked off the D-Day commemorations [answer: apparently to do some interview refuting allegations he is a liar] feels like it should have the potential to be fairly ruinous for Rishi. Good effort to try and torpedo the one remaining demographic they are gunning to win.
More needs to be done to expose and extinguish the Greens. People think they are some cuddly idealistic party but their literal written policies include a) the abolition of all borders and welcoming of all immigrants who want to move here, and b) not building any new houses.
Dangerous people.
Nobody who likes their bin collected is going to be voting for the greens.
Even Brighton will ditch them now Lucas is gone.
No to nuclear as well. Dickheads.
Not the best look when pushing national service, Corbyn got hammered even though he turned up.
100% fanny, as expected.
Admittedly I'm not really tuned to the mindset of the average (remaining) Tory voter, but does this latest Sunak gaffe really hurt him all that much?
Yes. Any time he says anything about national pride or the military or anything like that (which he will a lot), the opposition can say 'you left the D-Day commemoration for a vanity TV hit mate'.
It completely undermines his credibility as a statesman.
The big problem Sunak has is that he's a selfish superficial wanker. Say what you like about Boris/May/Cameron and their various failings but all of them are genuinely patriotic in some sense, this cunt only gives a shit about himself and his rat friends.
Truss is worse, a dreadful person who I am dearly hoping loses her seat.
Truss should be in prison.
Yeah, ruinously bad 'optics' for Rishi to have Starmer turn up in Normandy as well, although all of this was fully known weeks in advance so you have to wonder which big brain in the campaign team cleared it all.
Maybe they were just hoping for a 'forget about the last 8 years' vibe with Lord Cameron PMing it up.
Yikes.
It's a shame he called the election really. Another 6 months and they would have achieved 0 seats.
Their core vote is abandoning them.
Using betting odds it's currently looking like:
LAB 433 (+227)
CON 121 (-224)
LD 51 (+36)
Conservatives on track to gain just one seat (Moray West, Nairn and Strathspey).
They're not getting 100.
Annoyingly, I suspect a fair number of their voters will end up voting for them again when they're actually stood pencil in hand.
