How does Farage do it. A few months ago he was complaining about losing his bank account at Couts and today it looks like he has bagged a load of votes with his man if the people gig.

A lot of disaffected people out there.

My brief discussions today at work suggests that a vote for Reform is a protest vote, rather like some used the Brexit vote as a protest vote.
Most of these seats you may as well vote for a nearby chicken for all the difference it makes, it shouldn't be a surprise to anybody when people treat their vote that way.

It's very similar in so many ways - including nefarious influence of bots on social media. Usual dark forces at work

He is a brilliant orator and communicator. Johnson without the laughs. He hits a nerve with various people.

Is Johnny Vegas the Reform candidate for Sunderland South?
From a party that is blaming immigrants for 'draining the NHS' I'm not happy that my taxes are going to be used to pay for all his healthcare, ambulances, heart transplants etc.

If you look at what is about to happen in France, what is about to happen in the UK is no surprise, frankly.

Wes Streeting just saying that “Labour have reconnected with the people.” I don’t get a sense of that at all tbh. I get more a sense that the Tory party has imploded.

So if Barnsley north goes to reform bloke then does it count as reform given he has already been kicked out for being too racist? I wonder how many more that are overtly racist will come out once checks start when they become MPs?!
Is he an 'Other' in the exit poll - or have they lumped it in with Reform?

edit - They've lumped it in with Reform.

But this happened before with UKIP who would’ve got a number of seats in a previous election. FPTP helps keeps the nutters out, as we will see tonight.
Yes, it does.

But it's so unfair.... boo hoo....

Having hated FPTP for the majority of my life, I’m very close to admitting you’ve been right. That’s very scary indeed. They have no policies FFS.
They deny climate change is real and want to privatise the NHS. People are thick but also most people don't talk, walk, operate like most MP's. They are more like Nige. It resonates.
