Reform are getting a shitload of voters

[HeBeaverandSheBeaver]

I have not voted
Reform and live in a safe tory seat But I voted
Lib dem tactical vote

I said ages Ago on here the reform would do really well and was shouted down.

Same as brexit, no one will admit voting for reform but
They still do it in droves it seems.

I'm Willing to bet they
Might win an election in four years at this rate!!

Scary
Times

I transparently am tired of the racist shit that gets pushed on people who are not white by those who think they are more enlightened and can tell them how they should vote and what they can think.

It would appear that the Labour party strategists have played a blinder in securing the biggest swings in the seats where they needed the biggest swings.

The swing in Telford was the biggest ever from Con to Lab, I say was, because that is old news now as there at least 2 seats declared since that have had biggest swings.

Yes!!! I also voted reform👏

Those do seem to be the places they concentrated on most, which makes sense.

The share of the overall vote one?

But why is Farage's wife in frozen costume ?

dont assume this AT ALL. We live in France- let Le Pen be a warning to you..

Infact a problem with the demise of the Toroes is that once we have burnt through labour in a few years time, what centre options will you have left in the UK when the time comes to vote?? This vacuum of the centre means after that is over you will be left with extremes to choose from. That is what has happened here. A shocking truth that I will share with you and hope you don’t forget is that we see here in the latest election is that people are more afraid of the left than they are of the right.

I am v v happy for a Labour victory though and think starmer is a very measured man!

You can find what they stand for on their website. Good news because the political landscape is changing, finally

Reform are effectively the renamed Brexit Party, so any % gains are compared to their results last time.

My rich retired FIL voted for both Brexit and Reform. He didn't go to uni, had a job that isn't stressful or long hours, nowadays is extremely poorly paid, but he bought a house at 22 and retired on an absolutely enormous pension at 55.

Instead of voting with some thought for his own kids and grandchildren's future, given how privileged he is, he voted Reform because he doesn't want higher taxes and wants immigrants to leave. Selfish and racist. Those are the Reform voters.

As an immigrant myself and mother of his grandchild, I have no words. Neither does DP. We just never bring up the topic of politics. I'm probably the only immigrant he's ever even had a conversation with but I guess my kind are just scum. I make 4 times my English DP's salary, pay a ton of taxes but somehow my lot is lazy and cheat the system...sure.

Reform have only won one seat. You start this by saying you haven't voted… then you say you have voted?

I think the way it’s written is a bit confusing. I read the same as you at first but re read it and believe the OP is saying that they didn’t vote reform and live in a Tory stronghold area but they voted Lib Dem themselves.

@LiterallyOnFire I thought that but there are up and down arrows.

@Myneighboursnorlax That makes sense.

I thought (assumed?) they were doing it compared to zero but I've literally lost my specs so it's all primary blotches until I find them.

Why is the returning office for Welwyn announcing the result in Edwardian dress? That's some hat.

Well that's GrantShapps gone. Didn't I see a Shapps username?

Ha! First major Tory out.
Goodbye Shapps.

So sad

Alex Chalk beat him by a few minutes.

Well i work with mostly younger people in their 20's and at work today they were all saying they voted reform as did the big boss who i would have pegged as a typical conservative voter tbh!

So sad*

Some of the returning officers have been wearing fabulous outfits with very impressive hats. I'm wondering if they are also the mayor or something.

Looks like farage is in

Must be. Some very glamorous mayors out there.

Well that was chilling ...build a mass movement...coming for labour voters.
