Mr Habib appears in an interview virtually every day... Ms Hartley-Brewer is hardly a hostile interviewer for him. He has a smooth line of response and is never caught for words. He was very deliberate:
Julia Hartley Brewer, "You would leave asylum seekers to drown in the channel?"
Ben Habib, "Absolutely"
He's on record that he'd break the law and presumably expect the RNLI or others to break the law? At least they're saying the ghastly bits out loud I suppose.Julia Hartley Brewer, "You would leave asylum seekers to drown in the channel?"
Ben Habib, "Absolutely"
Fortunately saner people do not buy into this far right rhetoric, resulting in a huge spike in RNLI donations by the silent majority

I was waiting to hear / read of the actual input from the interview, rather than the toxic misrepresentations presented earlier.
Clip is 5 minutes long.https://x.com/TalkTV/status/1782712172256096261
or
The Co-Deputy Leader of Reform UK really is fine with letting migrants drown in the channel.
Which of those do you think is more likely Cranked?

I do not support any notion of letting people drown anywhere or at any time. I am shocked at his response tbh.
I'm glad you'e shocked as it's a petty gross response.Given he's Co-Deputy Leader of Reform do you think Habib is likely to be the only person in the leadership of Reform who have that view?
Or do you think he just said the quiet part out loud?

Reform U.K. will build a base from 2024 ready for 2029-30.
Support for Reform has doubled to 12% in the last year. Their support in 2029 based on this trend will be 192% of the electorate.Go back to your constituencies and prepare for government!

And that same Tory support collapse is the only reason Labour may win the next G.E.
Not sure of the point, that is generally how elections work isn’t it?Party losing power loses seats and party that wins power takes them?

Another reason to not trust the sunny uplands promised by reform.

You seem to be saying that you want things to go back to pre brexit, living in the past will not cut it.
If you are fortunate you may grow older and hold different views to those behind you.

I may be surprised and Habib will be gone tomorrow but I doubt it.
Reform include some very unpleasant people.
This is what lots of people keep trying to tell you.

Wishful thinking? Or if not, evidence?
If the court would take a look at exhibit '1a' your honour, they will see the content of this thread. They should pay special attention to the ramblings of the nuttier end of team reform...[Img]https://static.independent.co.uk/s3fs-public/thumbnails/image/2015/07/30/14/5856113.jpg[/thumb]
Your Honour Exhibit ‘B’ brexit.

You may think that the younger generation are more broad in their outlook, whatever that means. But the World is rapidly changing, the West is losing its trading and wealth superiority rapidly to the Asian pacific region alongside Mexico and other emerging economies.

I think many young people would love things to go back to pre-brexit, where they could work, study and enjoy a whole load of places and cultures in life. Not sure what's going to make them bitter and angry except what their parents have done to them.You seem to be saying that you want things to go back to pre brexit, living in the past will not cut it.
