What I would like to ask Reform supporters what are the specific Reform policies they support?

[CurlewKate]

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.

Just because something would be extremely difficult to reform - as we all know the tax system would indeed be - it doesn’t mean you can’t call it out.
In my view that’s what is increasingly wrong with politics. Too many slavishly follow the party line, whips enforcing such, with no one prepared to stop and question. Too many on that gravy train.
Look at Kruger and Jenrick - freed from that tyranny, they’re more proactive through being allowed to have an opinion. And happier too, it appears.

@RedTagAlan , I agree with all the policies on the link I posted. I did not post a link to the policy you quoted and I can only tell you how it reads to me. In my opinion all of the policies on the link I posted are self explanatory but I’m sure I could help if there are any among them which you are struggling to understand. ☺️
I haven’t seen the policies particular to Scotland you have mentioned, they don’t appear on the website I’ve seen. Reform are very pro business which should benefit all of the United Kingdom.

What I quoted was in the link you posted. From the PDFs on there.

I don't understand anything on the Crappytoe money pdf at all. All looks a bit shady to me. And a reform government are going to set up a wealth fund based on it. No doubt to pay people off ? Such as Trump with his Liberty money that is now worthless.

Anyhow, you made a bold statement that you agreed with everything in the Reform manifesto. Very bold. I have never seen a manifesto that I agree 100% with.

Do you still stand by that statement ?

That is not everything in the Reform UK manifesto. But yes I do agree and I think it will work because it incentivise businesses and individuals to work to grow our economy.

@RedTagAlan , I’ve had a little look at the specific Scottish site for Reform and it sounds amazing for the Scottish people but I can’t find anywhere that it says Reform will make Scotland the most successful part of the UK. 🤷🏼‍♀️
If we’re all doing really well no one will need fear that someone is doing better and if Scotland is doing better than the rest of the UK I guess we could just reverse the Barnett formula. 😜
If anyone is interested here is the link to the Scottish Reform site. :-

Kruger - well known for his strong pro-life views and his comment that women can’t always have bodily autonomy.

Also hopes to reverse the sexual revolution and reinstate traditional family structure - white families.

Jenrick - well known for removing pictures from a children’s asylum centre - oh and for being dumb enough to leave his resignation letter on the copier.

I couldn’t particularly care how happy they are tbh - but I do care they don’t get near power and influence.

Obviously, there is a lot more room for their opinions to be shared whilst outside government - and that’s certainly for the good so as I know not to vote for them.

I'd be very, very careful about aligning yourself with Kruger and/or Jenrick around anyone with a brain and a functioning moral compass.

And another thing I like about Reform UK. They know a women does not have a penis and understand women don't want men hanging around in ladies toilets unlike AB who thinks most women don't mind.

"And another thing I like about Reform UK. They know tell me a women does not have a penis because they know it's what I want to hear and will tell me anything to get me to vote them into power"

Fixed it for you.

The bit about making Scotland the most successful part of the UK is bottom right page 1 I think.

So you are happy for Scotland to be more successful under Reform then England, for example.

Wow.

But surely what they plan to do in Scotland should be done in the rest of the UK too ?

The Greens are hypocrites. At our local election on May 7th DH was put canvassing and saw Greens out several times as obviously canvassing in same constituency. He noticed not one of them had an electric car.

So you think more people using crappio money, famed for being used for illegal things, will grow the economy and benefit everyone ?

How exactly will it do this ? Over normal Fiat currency that is.

I know very little about it. But you must if you say it will work. Can you give an example that is easy to understand ?

They do indeed know what a woman is - they will push them all back to the kitchen, remove work rights that make it harder for women to continue working, encourage (white) women to breed, consider restricting abortion.

If this is what you want then fill your boots - but don’t expect every woman to look forward to all this just as you think there’ll be more guarantee of avoiding a trans person in the bog.

Butbutbut, when I voted for the Face-Eating Leopard party I didn't think they'd eat my face!

They maybe got the bus ?

I agree with carbon zero stuff, and I don't have an electric car. In fact, I don't have a car.

Or may live in housing with no way of charging an EV? Terraced houses with no off street parking make it impossible.

What I would find interesting to know is what country has enacted all, or most, or some, of Reform's ( and Restore's) policies, and is now a utopia compared to the UK.

Because when I read the world news, I don't see such a country.

Nordic countries seem to top most of the quality of life tables. And they are not far right.

Or is far rightism similar to communism, or what communists say anyway ? That for it to work everyone needs to be 100% committed to it.

I did wonder about that. Maybe that is one of the local policies they were campaigning on. More charging points.

@RedTagAlan The Nordic system is interesting but I don't think it would work in the UK. Firstly, it would require a lot of trust that people would not abuse the welfare system, which we do not have in the UK. 21.4% of people in the UK are economically inactive, which is much higher than the Nordic countries.
Secondly, middle and low income earners would need to pay much more tax than they currently do in the UK. Low and middle earners in the UK pay much less tax than the nordic countries or in fact most other Western European countries.
Thirdly, there would need to be devolution of power and money from central government to local areas. The UK has one of the most centralised governments in the world and the nordic model only works because of decentralisation of power.
Fourth, they do not have a minimum wage
Fifth, it is easier to fire employees
Sixth, corporation tax is lower in the nordic countries

That's fine re Nordic countries.

So what countries have enacted Reform/Restore policies and are now relative utopias compared to the UK ?

@RedTagAlan
Switzerland, Singapore and Monaco have low taxes and stricter controls on immigration.

And Switzerland is in the ECHR - hmm.

And Japan, PRC, DPRK. All have tougher immigration. The latter 2 take zero asylum seekers. Japan take very few. About 300 a year.

I think Singapore and Monaco can be taken out, because city states.

So Switzerland.

Will reform/Restore convert the UK into Switzerland ? And do you want the UK to be like Switzerland ? What does Switzerland do better than the UK ?

From memory, I can think of it being the most direct democracy in the world, national service, and expensive.

A quick search. most expensive countries to live, Switzerland number 4. Of course, different sites will give different tables.

Cost of Living Index by Country 2026 (numbeo.com)

What other Reform/Restore policies does Switzerland do that make it better than the UK ?

If you didn't have to pay any tax so you got to tak home more do you not think you'd spend more?

@RedTagAlan
Switzerland is a decent country to live in but I accept it is small. Actually, I like the idea of direct democracy for local government. In my opinion, people should vote on policies and spending in a local council election. Experienced people should be running the council who are given a mandate by the local people to spend money the way they wish/vote-whether than be spending money on potholes,bin collections, housing or SEN needs.
Australia and the USA also have an overall lower tax burden and stricter controls on immigration than the UK.
Canada has lower taxes than the UK and is introducing stricter controls on immigration.
