Given the rate that their councillors have been dropping out and the notorious quality of their vetting regimes, Reform would probably lose that majority within a couple of months due to bye-elections.

Hopefully, but I'm worried about what damage they would do. Plus, they would have media outlets whitewashing their decisions.

Think it's very unlikely there's not much more of a tactical vote against Reform in Southern England. Even Kent, I don't see them winning all those seats.

And South Wales looks like too much Reform. Are they really going to win with, says 30% with Labour and Plaid on 25%, I think that's unlikely.

Ha ha ha, Market capitalization = share price x number of shares. Countries don't issue shares, as you may well have noticed.

Different things are different, who knew? Nigel Farage's book, The Purple Revolution has 320 pages. But there are only 271 words in the Gettysburg Address. Says a lot, eh?

Here's a reason to be skeptical of Reform's chances in 2029. At the moment, boat people and woke are keeping them going. Could Farage avoid responsibility for Brexit in a general election campaign? He'd be effectively running on the hardest Brexit again.

Isn't this just like those unelected Commissioners he was so dead against?

Another theme that might sound less good in an election where Reform are running to be the Government. Most people don’t think their kids’ teachers are subversives.

Last week Lee posted a picture of himself and the head of an academy in his constituency. The picture was taken in front of the gate probably because the academy had broken up the day before. The head reassured Lee that all was well at the school which is probably not true given that the schools Executive head took early retirement after being physically assaulted for the third time in as many weeks.

I wonder how many schools Lee has actually visited when staff and pupils ae actually present.

Mind you, their friend's cousin's got children at a place where you'e not allowed to speak English.
