An article in the Independent today claims that us mums here on mumsnet support the Reform party, I was horrified to think mums of our future generations would support a grifter like Farage. So I’m conducting this poll.

Bots appear pushing different kinds of ideologies. Activity isn’t limited to support for a particular political party!

How can we tell who is a bot though? And who is just saying what they think?

It’s not possible. More like wishful thinking when the alleged bots express a different view.

I think it was something to do with an interview. It doesn’t matter if a site supports whoever - we all have our own vote.

Just looked at the poll result. People who comment on threads like these exist at the extremes of a bell curve. Ie it attracts those who have a strong view either way. It’s the majority who sit in the middle who decide who gets elected though and you aren’t going to see folk like that in a thread like this.

in a way it’s pleasing - we need those who are anti-reform complacent and sure of their own superiority. That will make the next GE result all the sweeter.

The poll on this thread has 133 votes. Not near enough to make judgment.
