What again? Like the Clacton by-election night that the police knew nothing about?

Yes, exactly like that one. There appears to be a theme 🤔

It’s not so much of a ‘flaw’ as a habit.

I have to say that this is quite interesting;

Nigel Farage has signed a “stop the boats forever” treaty with Jordan Bardella, the leader of the French National Rally party, pledging to return illegal migrants to France.

My husband says that a lot

”this is interesting…”

They said they were drinking Black Velvet - a mix of Guinness and champagne.

So a man who will never lead a country signs a fantasy treaty with another person who’ll never be a leader ??

You might be in for a surprise there.

By May 2027, a candidate from the far-right National Rally (RN) will hold all the power the mighty French presidency commands.
Polls from May 2026 indicate that over one-third of French voters may be ready to vote for such a candidate in the first round, far ahead of anyone else, and that an RN candidate would also compete strongly in the second round. That candidate may be the RN’s long-time leader Marine Le Pen, who since taking over from her father in 2011 has become the grande dame of the French far right; it may be the party’s president Jordan Bardella, who will likely run in Le Pen’s stead if her appeal to overturn an embezzlement conviction fails.

Watch this space. Europe is changing.

The "treaty" is a stunt. A memorandum of understanding is not legally binding.

If memory serves me rightly, Le Pen did well in the first round at the last election. Then the French tactically voted in the second round to keep her out.

That was last time - the situation is different now as Europe is waking up to the migration problem.

I doubt it. Nigel Farage will have sold out and done a runner, or rotting in prison come the next GE.🙈

And who knows what might happen between now and the French election

After all Farage/Reform had a significant and persistent lead in the polls until the financial issues began to emerge in April this year which has melted away over time

French polls just like UK polls so far away from a election don't always mean much

@Florenceeiderduck , why do you need all this foreign money?

Why aren't you able to fund Reform from donations by UK residents or UK overseas voters?

What's going wrong?

It isn't in British people's interests to fund Reform, they're a vehicle for it's adversaries (I appreciate that you're asking rhetorically).

Hopefully we'll see more of their leaders go the same way as the former Reform UK leader in Wales, Nathan Gill.

LivelyGreyShark · 05/09/2026 00:04

Its not real, same company have been called out for making similar shit up in America. Whether you're for or against Reform - take a pinch of salt when it comes to companies to people making money out of creating content.
