The Poolie Bunker

No idea what you mean Snowy but his latest Reform Hartlepool councillor hasn’t lasted long ?

Maybe Reform are rooting out all the unsuitable representatives who don't align with their policies first?, rather than - unlike Labour - waiting till they've been elected first?

I’m not part of this particular tête-à-tête, however I don’t understand a word of this post by Jamie!

It makes no sense.

He goes to Thailand to leave Farage & Co behind, then brings them into every thread? Snowy is right, he's living rent free in your head.

Looks like Farage bottled it, pulled out of the Laura Kuenssberg interview today saying he was campaigning in his constituency, that must be a first then Laura Kuenssberg.
Last-Minute Withdrawal: Presenter Laura Kuenssberg announced at the start of the show that Farage’s team said he had "changed his mind" about appearing.Reason Given: A Reform UK spokesman stated that "Nigel Farage is campaigning in Clacton this weekend instead".Reaction: The move was criticized by opposing party leaders, with Conservative Kemi Badenoch calling him "too scared" to face scrutiny, while Green Party's Zack Polanski claimed he was "on the run".Background: This incident follows previous last-minute cancellations by Farage from BBC interviews.

Obsessed.

How long has he ‘lived’ in Thailand……?

What is it with all these ex pats and their bitterness towards Farage on here?..Jamie and Pj poolie to name a few ..Tapped in the head after laying in the sun all day,what is it ??

if he had done the interview i guess you would have knocked him for ignoring and never being in his constituancy. thats always the favourite for the anti farage brigade.

Sounds like you like Farage, one of the many guidable taking in by him, can you name a few of Reforms policies ? I would have loved him to be in the interview but Farage doesn’t come across well in a face to face interview, he prefers being on a stage with his supporters where nobody asks him any questions.

How many times are you going to ask people to give examples of Reform policies and ignore the answers?

actually reform would not exist if the country was run in a way that there 5 main policies were not needed.

I am waiting for some one to list what their actual workable policies are, latest one is to build detention centres to house illegal immigrants but not in Reform controlled councils.

Reform/Brexit party only exists because they campaigned for Brexit based on immigration,
Farage left the party after the EU vote leaving Tice in charge but realised the fella couldn’t run a bath never mind a political party.

Funny how you demand people answer YOUR demands …..but you just ignore other people’s questions when you know you’ve dropped another bollock.
It’s wearing a bit thin now….tedious even.

Funny how you and Starmer are never seen in the same place…is that you Keir?

Reform were indeed founded on the basis of the Brexit option. Brexit for most was not just about immigration, there's the issue of sovereignty, the EU legislating stuff that many Brits weren't happy with, the inability to set our own laws and enforce them, and if course the cost of membership, among other reasons.
But there's absolutely no denying their huge popularity is because the Tory's made an arse of things, and now Labour are exceeding the Tory's rather than their own rhetoric or actions. A competent and decently performing government would have absolutely nothing to fear from Reform. The next GE is in the hands of Reform (probably not outright but they'll be in a coalition) and it's up to the other party's to take it back.
Reform say what the majority want to hear, the same as Labour did to get elected, nothing changes in that regard.

reform will always get a good percentage of the vote because there are still many people in favour of brexit and seeing a proper one implemented. there only hope is that party as the others never wanted it in the forst place and as we have sen done there utmost to knacker it up or slip back towards the eu.

If we ever go back in we’ll be made to use the Euro and then we’ve really lost our independence….I recall someone wanting us to join the Euro solely on the basis of not having to change their money when they go on holiday.

even blair was against joining the euro zone but i think you are right. they did not want us to leave and would have lost millions from our contribution. there will be more boxes to tick to get back in than originally joining, but feel given the chance starmer would tick em quickly.

The "EXPERTS" are now saying that the less CO2 we are putting into the atmosphere is contributing to the planet warming up, due to less cloud cover and CO2 barriers letting the sun through unabated, you really couldn't make it up. So basically it doesn't matter what we do it has a detrimental affect on the planet, according to the..... "EXPERTS".

a lot is down to who is paying the experts. they like us have all got a price to keep many of us down and shit scared.

Funny how we are told what to do by a political minority with the mindset of the average student and just comply.
It applies to most Party’s…our own Prime Mister whose ‘policies’ appear to be a product of naivety and a sort of idealism, that has helped to create the floundering instability we endure today.
