The glib Pied Piper leading Reform astray

First various s/shots from X where it hit the fan overnight, then further comment from me.

Many decades ago, I thought Old Labour might have been the only ones to care. Then, realising that people had to work and produce things, Maggie’s time, had me leaning that way, even despite the poll tax and knowing the damage Heath had done.

The logical move was Kipper, Farage was saying the right things but there was trouble in the ranks, then he left.  All right, along came TBP … we saw that as the way until he sold out to the Tories.

A third time we trusted, with Reform.  Tice calling supporters of TR “that lot” was the start of it, Farage’s dismissals … but still Reform seemed the way, at grassroots level.  Then came the unconscionable behaviour of Farage and Yusuf against the Reform MP making all the running, while Starmer crossed the floor to chat with “Nige”.

Dear reader who cares about the ordinary Brit … which of them rings true to you?  As someone who himself can string sentences together, I know the glib Pied Piper type very, very well.

Reform is being led back to demi-Toryism, controlled opposition. So many Reformers simply haven’t woken up to this yet.

The answer?  In your constituency, whoever reflects your politics, what you wish achieved, whether or not he/she can alone do much except speak out … he/she is the one. If Homeland, Heritage, whatever Rupert does, if grassroots Reform … vote for that one.

In parliament, it comes down to numbers, doesn’t it? If one of the Uniparty is govt, it’s the combined vote of little groups which carries the day. Or would you prefer a Starmer dictatorship?
