I know it's not going to happen, but how do you think they’d change the country if given free reign?

I'd love to but the same people took away my rights.

Despite Brexit, you can still emigrate and work abroad. It's not as easy, but you can still do it. It hasn't been banned.

Financial markets would have an implosion of capital suddenly shifting around. Reform likes a lot of the same policies that Liz Truss liked, and you know how much the Investment sector liked her Plan for Growth. Markets made a lot of money out of betting against Truss, basically.

So then the pension funds would sink & I guess the entire BoE panel would all be laid off, because I can't see Reform leaving interest rate decisions to BoE or wanting to hear what decisions BoE members recommend to keep economy viable.

Universities would collapse widely: they completely rely on overseas students in order to be financially viable. Farage & Tice want to go back to days of the Manor Lord where a few people are well educated & most people have manual jobs, skilled manual jobs. I suppose according to Farage, Starmer should have been proud to have left school at 14 & become a toolmaker like his dad did.

June Mummery would be happy for about 3 weeks then wake up to how Reform was betraying the fishernman after all, too.

He doesn't want to be in charge- he just likes stirring up trouble.

Or even free rein? I can’t imagine Nige wearing a crown. Though probably he could imagine it.
where to begin? The mind boggles.I think the streets would be cleaner, it would be a hanging offence to litter and the trains may or may not run on time.
Anyone not born here would be deported to Rwanda or Australia.

Like the Tories but worse - all the wrong answers to all the wrong questions.

Honestly, it would be like the SNP; elected on a single issue but no idea how to run schools, councils, education, health, anything

I can't bear to imagine what kind of dystopian future it would be.
