    On some specific areas of policy, I find Reform’s platform thoroughly agreeable. Nationalise the water companies? Check. Nationalise British Steel? Check. Combine social care with the NHS for a unified system? Yes please.

    It’s just the y’know, the racism that I object to.

      Whenever you see far right wingers extol the virtues of socialist policies you can know that they’re only doing this for popularity and cover.

      When they get in office they will miraculously never make progress on any of the socialist promises but all of the fascist ones happen to stay top of mind for them.

        Reminds me of this whole “National Socialism” thing. What a strange coincidence, innit?

      The Green Party does all of those. And without racism, too.

      Reform doesn’t help you. It’s a front for oligarchs and pedophiles.

      Green on the other hand, actually works for the average Brit who just wants to grill!
