And yes, I'm saying they will be worse than the current Tory MPs.
THAT bad.

I'm still willing to bet over 30 sitting Tory MPs defect before the next election. There'll be some more go in dribs and drabs and then a huge one off dump of them just before everyone has to get their candidates registered for the next election.

I'm pretty certain we're already in a crisis. It's more about what comes next.

The polls show otherwise and we haven't even got any of the larger politicians pushing a pro-EU stance.
There been a huge geo-political shift since 2016. It's ripe to tackle it again.

I'd have thought the opposite. If Labour do it by stealth they feed Reform an attacking point. If Labour do it publicly and build support for it they cut Reforms legs from under them.

I'd place money that when reform win the next election they will look good for the first 18 months by acting fast and decisively on certain things. Then, like brexit, the lack of thought and political skill will show through and it will be a sh1t show of the highest order.

Same. I cleared out my parents house this year. Why TF did they still have my cot from 40 years ago and countless other out of date useless crap. Just stored up just in case 🤦♂️.
I'd been trying to get them to do it for years. Pissed me right off TBH.
