Reform ?

[Bendigo 1,772]

From May no tory defectors will be allowed to join reform, no mps nor councilors apparently.

I think Zahawi is a brilliant bloke. It's only fair that we graft so he can heat his stables via his expenses. And  It was only an oversight that HMRC caught up with him whilst he was chancellor. He owed a few million to the very department he ran. But he apologised and everything was settled amicably. Top man.

Thank God Reform have recognised his undoubted ability and let's hope he's offered a safe seat and a cabinet post. He's just the type the country needs.

As for the Ozemic kid, Jenrick, what a coup! That little business where he tried to save his buddy 40 million and deny a council the same amount by overruling a housing decision was again just a misunderstanding. 

The Covid trip and the expenses he had to pay back on a third house he owned?  A misunderstanding  and a  slip of the pen. He's apologised,so that all right then.

A pair of scheisters who should be in jail instead of jumping from one gravy train to another.

£5,000,000 he described it as an “Oversight”

Much of the Arab world are appalled at Blair having any responsibility in the Middle East.

They remember him lying to invade Iraq.

The Arabs are still very “tribal”; they will fight and even go to war with each other , but resent outsiders interfering, especially people they consider liars.

Cheers.

It ain't just the Arab world mate! f**k's sake, fresh from rinsing hundreds of thousands of Iraqis and nobbing  Murdoch's wife, he's risen from the ashes to pontificate on how to solve an impossible situation. I wonder what his stipend will be?

When my father first had myself and my brother over to England when we were young first thing he set us up at was signing on. All over London. It was like a full time job travelling from place to place day in day out. At one stage I’d say we were signing under around 40 different names at once. Whenever the feeling of guilt about my past comes over me I just look at the politicians and realise we’re weren’t that bad. At least we had the excuse of being poor.

I’m sure there is no connection to the fact that his once 20+ thousand majority got cut to 1400 at the last election ? lol 

No, it will be out of real conviction  and patriotism ! lol

To be fair he’s always been on the right of the Tory party, he campaigned strongly for Brexit, against mass immigration and he’s implacably against the Chagos surrender deal, the reason he gives for leaving.

I guess political survival comes into it aswell but of all the Tory’s, I’d say he’s probably in the 10% or less that are actually “right wing”.

Cheets.

But until the very very very tiny minority get bigger its always going to be a few like minded individuals saying "we told you so" on the internet and in the pubs and not achieving a thing.

Like it or not our views are unpalatable to the vast majority of the population. 

I disagree mate i think what you are describing as a " very very very tiny minority " is actually a lot more than you think.....granted not many are as full on as someone like me but i dont think anyone can deny the current rise of the right and in my opinion theres a lot of people out there who with a little bit more conviction and a little less fear of being called names,would take another step further, and many of them are the " safe " Reform voters.

To me it all comes down to moral standards and Reform dont have any if they are not willing to put native British people first its as simple as that and i dont understand why anyone even remotely patriotic would put trust in them.....to me its naive and gullible.

 i joined advance uk before they had the 30'000 target to become a party just to help kickstart it in the hope that in the near future Rupert Lowe will join and hopefully be a credible party that could see a lot of disillusioned Reform voters turning to in the future 

Good for you mate same here.....even if there was no Advance/Restore i genuinely dont understand what the Reform lot are seeing....surely when they see someone like Jenrick being welcomed into their party they must hold their heads in disbelief,the ex immigration minister who helped fill all the hotels with third world criminals....or Zawahi implementing the vaccine passports and backing an amnesty for all illegals.....again,this just isnt the change British people want.
