We are being played I'm afraid. The globalist junta wants a Labour government to finish off what the Tories started, the complete collapse of the UK. The Labour party is certain to win by a large enough majority to keep it in power for a decade, enough time to finish us off unchallenged. The traitors in the soon to be eviscerated Conservative Party will slither off to cosy sinecures in other countries or in the directorships of their corporate masonic club.

Reform is just a giant distraction, a way to split the conservative vote. The junta plays with us. They know exactly how to manipulate the political system to their advantage. The vast majority of people are completely unaware of just sophisticated the mind games are. The outcome is always the same. More for them, less for us, more taxes, less freedom, fewer and fewer people are able to participate in society in a useful and productive way. Our young people are forever excluded from ever owning their own home for example. This is now considered "normal"

It'll require mass civil insurrection to change anything and of course, that simply ain't gonna happen.

The only options left? Emigrate. And perversely, Russia is probably the safest, most tax friendly civilised nation left in the northern hemisphere.

Good to see you here, Old Sausage. He’s a good read, ain’t he, although I’m bored with his obsession of ridiculing Farage.

I think this is wrong and fundamentally biased.

Is Farage the new messiah, almost certainly not, does his manifesto sums ad up, I'm pretty sure they don't.

This endless idea that you need a "ground game" is old hat, in the last 4 elections I've never seen a politician, if ground games were the secret formula, Labour would have won every election.

The question you have to ask, is do the main stream parties have the answers or even the ideas you want? and the answer for most is no.

And its that disinfection with mainstream politics that will propel Farage and he knows it.

The elections are won on TV and social media and column inches and rally's, not in shoe leather

And what many miss, is this is not a pitch to win the election, he knows he has no chance, but he does have a chance to be leader of the opposition, and if he doesn't make that then to be considered the official opposition in the media for an attempt for 2029 when Labour are as toxic as the Tories.

This is a longer term project, and if you want the roots - look across Europe.

"As far as the polls go, I don't think they're picking up on the overall fragmentation of politics, .." So true but then are the polls of any use apart from entertainment value?
