Well, purely objectively of course, I’d say that this year’s Reform conference has been an unmitigated fucking disaster.
In public relations terms, if it was intended to convince undecided voters (forget the swivel-eyed fuckwits in union jack suits actually attending) that here is a capable, trustworthy, and professional party worthy of forming the UK’s next government and led by a solidly honest, unimpeachably upright guy, then it has surely failed miserably. And without those undecided voters, they are frankly fucked. And that’s before you even get to the array of absolute proven wankers populating their front rank : Jenrick, Braverman, Kruger, Zahawi, Dorries, Jenkyns, Cunningham … the list goes on. And on.
I don’t think even the ghost of Anne Widdecombe would count this conference any sort of success.
