Aren't reform just the more Conservative voters version of Momentum or The Socialist Worker Party? I can't see the attraction of a party where 'I want my country back' Anderson is welcomed with open arms....yet, many feel exactly the same about the 'lefts' note extreme members. At least the division is obvious I guess.
Reform party demographics seem to be weighted towards ex-Conservative eurosceptics of a certain age.



A good job this winter has been pretty mild, a cold-snap might might have seen them lose a significant portion of their membership.

Aside from extraordinary crassness, suggests Reform are not particularly organised at local level.

Ooh, I know the answer to this.

1) Do a pointless thing
2) Remove your human rights, joining Belarus & Russia in the process.
3) Deny reality
4) Duplicate a civil service function at the taxpayer's expense
5) Get laughed at, then shot at by the French navy
6) Do a thing that would obviate the previous five things that should have been done in the first place.

The more I see about Reform the more I think they appeal to people who would also support Nick Griffin and similar.

The version of that poster with “staffed by believers” is much better. Bit more Orwellian.

The name over the door changes from time to time but the schtick rarely varies. They are the 10% merchants & will always be with us.

reform and the brexit party are/were just a softer, more voter friendly version of the national front. Their politics are almost entirely centred around immigration plus a few policies that mean "no change:" because their are a lot of people that dont like change (be it strange sounding accented people moving into their area or the belief that they will be forced to sell their car and buy a £100k electric car that will last 12 months.

Surely it's all about the well thought out policies though and nothing to do with the overt racism?

Or is about joining the racists as a protest vote to force the Tories to be more racist.
