Just that really. I am a Labour voter, and I know what Labour policies I support. I think I know what Conservative and Lib Dem policies their supporters like. I don't know about Reform.

@MsJinks

The £5m is telling us more about Reform U.K. than the local elections did.

People were aware of the £5 million before the local elections.

I know - but we’ve still not got an answer so the question should keep being asked. Not sure really what point you’re making here.

In other words, you're the sainted one. We get the picture. Every right winger is angry and all the lefties aren't. Maybe check out the loon who whacked a woman with a sledgehammer. Lovely lefties eh?
There's a park at the end of my road where the junkies wait for their dealers who tend to be black or brown. Someone upthread even said something patronising about a doctor in a niqab as though some of us would find this shocking. Women in niqabs walk past my house every day. So what? Someone else was aghast at black and brown people being called black or brown even though they refer to a white person as a white. "That's where the whites live" type of comment. The division will never heal if this patronising doesn't stop.

No I'm not sainted by any stretch - who is? I dislike humans inhumanity to other humans - I also think it ultimately brings down the societies we live in.

I’m definitely not Phil Mitchell, but it’s for Luring victims into giving their stories.

That's why I am asking really. It could be to pay for facilities and witness travel expenses etc. Or it could be to pay a mate to knock one up on a laptop.

There is no info on the Restore website. In fact, there is hardly anything on their website.

They are the only patriotic party , they love their country and want their own British people to be looked after first before any other nationality. Charity starts at home. This is common sense , I don't understand why this is seen as a radical take. They will actually do something about the boats and they will also leave the ECHR which plays a big part in stopping deportations.

They basically will fight back against the place being colonised by Islam.
And also Zia Yusuf is Muslim and his parents were immigrants and even he can see the state the country has become and is against mass immigration.

Well they won’t do this - and they live themselves and their rich donors before their country. Can’t wait for for the c donor to get his reward!

Reform are going to scrap the industrial suicide that is net zero. One good reason to vote for them

Fab - just help the whole earth commit climate suicide. Fracking will help topple some local areas in the meantime - of which they are also fans.

Lmao. Don’t talk about Kaffy like that. Ben is all grown up now. Louise is in Spain. Your kids must be “very very proud” to have a wonderful mum and a shining example like you. Instead of talking about politics you keep brining kaffy and Sharon and Ben and Louise into it.

😂😂 Keep it up Phil, they’re going into meltdown!

@cricketnut77
Agreed scrapping net zero is necessary. We are currently, importing gas and oil from abroad, which isn't good for the environment either! It is just crazy.
I agree with supporting manufacturing with cheaper energy, which is important. Otherwise we will have no manufacturing sector left in the UK.
Another policy I like from reform is cutting business taxes. NI is way too high at the moment and bad for business. It is also leading to an increase in unemployment.
I agree with reducing foreign aid and prioritising British strategic interests. If there is only so much money in the pot, we need to focus on improving our defence and strategic interests.
I agree with slimming down the civil service. The number of people working in the civil service now is the highest in 20 years.
@MyRareScroller And I wish left wing voters could add up. They seem to have no understanding of the economy or how businesses make profits or go out of business under Labour. Do they understand that the interest we are paying on our budget deficit is about the size of the entire education budget but they still want to give more benefits? Do they understand that when you increase NI that businesses can no longer afford to employ people? Do they understand that businesses do not want to employ inexperienced young people at £12.71 an hour-a 46% increase since 2020?

I don’t think people realise that this could happen in the future and how valuable our religious freedoms are in the UK, I feel really sorry for my Dgc

the recent attacks on the Jewish people has been awful

We weren't talking about you personally.

Seeking understanding is a good thing to most reasonable people. Much better than burying your head in the sand when an obvious sea change is happening.

I asked once (not constantly) in response to a poster who said they felt nobody was interested in the motivation behind the way people voted.

I didn't lose. There was no voting in my area this week.

I for one am glad that people are asking (and secretly hoping those currently in power are reading the replies). I genuinely believe that a lot of the voters have many reasons and immigration is not a reason for me as it doesn’t affect me negatively.

ilovesleep6 · 10/05/2026 10:55

I do think Reform and others are reluctant to address the elephant in the room which is state pensions.

It’s a Ponzi scheme and one argument for immigration is to pay for pensions. But what happens when they get old? We currently need on average 3.5 workers per pensioner.

Immigration and pensions are linked but the recipients of the latter generally don’t want the former. But touching the latter and getting rid of triple lock is political suicide. It would be interesting to see how Reform addresses that.

Yeh Reform should just have the same policies as Labour. You know, tax everyone into oblivion to spaff on net zero and uncontrolled immigration. Class war against private schools. Lie about 6,500 new teachers. Lie about helping WASPI women. Lie about grooming gang inquiries. Businesses going bust due to higher employment costs and business rates. Investing in the UK in decline due to tax policies. Importing oil and gas when we have centuries of supply at home. I could go on .

I am seeing the reasons, reason really for some (not all), people may vote Reform in a GE - is this solely why they won in councils? It’s a shame really it has to be so as I used to vote locally less on political lines and more on the individual- saying that I drew the line at extreme parties - and yes I would have included Reform in that.

Just to throw in, I may have done before, and have elsewhere. I do live bang opposite one of these hotels and I recognise nothing of what is said here. I see more potential hassle with the white drug dealers/users also close by in the summer particularly. Though if I don’t bother them they’re surely not bothering me - maybe folk could try this approach.

I think integration could be better - but that is also heavily on us cutting funding for such as ESOL and threatening to burn folk alive really imo.

I realised lately that actually I feel more in danger in 2 heavily right wing areas in my city than any other. I don’t even like driving through them tbh and I’m pretty fine (lax lol) with my personal safety. It’s the anger that vibrates and makes me nervous - bit early to tell but not sure it’s going to improve as they got a Reform councillor in their ward - tbh they’re still angry winning.

I also went on the last Tommy March (as the counter protest side) - disappointed to be so heavily outnumbered for sure, but not wishing to stamp all over anyone - the biggest side were scarily angry instead of just happy about their numbers. I genuinely fear this level of anger and think Reform just pumps its up.

In other words, you're the sainted one. We get the picture. Every right winger is angry and all the lefties aren't. Maybe check out the loon who whacked a woman with a sledgehammer. Lovely lefties eh?

I KNOW they don't have to. But if they don't then they can't complain that nobody understands why they vote as they do.

I couldn’t care less if people don’t understand why I vote. It’s my choice and does not have to be explained to anyone.

Those who constantly seek explanation of why people vote are the bad losers.

Anyone who votes Labour or Green is absolutely clueless. Green leader has made many antisemitism comments. Labour have emboldened the hatred for Jews by recognising Palestine and appealing to the Muslim vote. Unfortunately, for people like you until your daughter or grandaughter gets SA by one of these immigrants illegals then you will never see the light. If you love them so much offer to host them, live with them then you find out sharpish about them. You only need to see the countless stories about them.

You can take a horse to water and show it sense but unfortunately it won’t drink it.

Hmmm… the abusers I and my family know all had good traditional white man names like Bob and Simon… Tommy, if you will.

Any comment on your own type SA, battering or murdering women?

Who is “pRoTeCtInG oUr wOmEn” from them, Phillip? Is it you?
