Nigel Farage said Andy Burnham’s comments about potentially rejoining the EU had given him “the biggest boost in [his] career”. We look at why — even if it seems counter-intuitive — another Brexit debate could actually hurt Farage.

Before the Brexit referendum, a whole bunch of MPs explained to Britain how the economy would collapse post-Brexit. While Brexit hasn’t yet happened, some did say that the destruction would take place immediately after the vote; which didn’t exactly happen as expected. So in this video, we explain what’s happened and why the economy hasn’t done too badly in the end.

They need to cut down that tree squiggle symbol and make it a dragon, lion and wild boar and then eject all non-british ethnics from the party, from michael howard to rishi sunak. Then deport the millions of non-europeans, including jewish scammers like michael howard, and start a crusade to liberate France and Belgium from Islam

The Tories should have split years ago over Brexit. Cameron threw his dummy out because he didn’t accept the result of the vote he implemented and a substantial number of Tory MPs remained anti Brexit. May lied about her intentions and the Tory split got worse. Add immigration and woke policies and the gap between the government and the people, particularly Tory voters, got wider. They no longer represent what were Tory voters. I voted Tory but won’t do so next time. I couldn’t vote for Starmer’s Crazy Muslim Party so unless there is a Reform candidate I won’t vote at all.

Shuffling makes no difference when you are still using the same marked deck. When you still deal from the bottom of the pack nothing changes and bringing back Cameron is beyond the bottom of the barrel and six feet into the sewer. Just how much more are we going to let them get away with. What the hell is going on, if we had this attitude in the 1940s we'd all be speaking German and goose stepping down the street and saluting a statue of Hitler. Ffsk let's all grow a backbone and take back control of our country.

Right-wing on social issues and center/left on economic ones, is statistically what appeals the most to people with low IQ. Opposite position – left-wing on social/worldview and moderate right on economic ones, is much preferred by people with high IQ.
The economic bit might only be true in USA, but the social/worldview part is almost universal across the world.
Tories tried to appeal to dumbest of the dumb. The fact that it failed is good news and not just because Tories lost.

Clearly the country needs more than two major political parties…this broad church approach hides the many different opinions and factions of British society…FPTP will just continue to enforce this farce…keeping one of the two major parties in power indefinitely….
It’s way past time for PR ….let people vote for who they agree with…instead of voting tactically to keep someone out they fear…FPTP will never be democratic or represent the will of the Majority….35/40 of the popular vote is not a mandate….
Tories won’t support PR because they will lose the right of centre voters to the smaller more conservative parties….
Labour won’t support PR because they will lose a large portion of the Muslim vote along with those way out on the left….
Both big parties know with PR as the voting system neither of them could get enough the votes to govern on their own….so nothing will change…
Does anyone really still believe the UK is a functional Democracy….???

It's so they can target the far right vote the election afterwards. Boris let down the Working class Tory voters, so they wouldn't vote for them now but they will after 5 years of Starmer's Labour and Braverman will be in the perfect position for that

To be a conservative it's just a nice way of saying I want white people to stay in power and I don't want to see other cultures of people come up in power. That's why we still have these things like you are of a different race and there's only one active race of people. And when you point this out you're just a stupid snarky know-it-all or a crying liberal. White people especially conservative especially Republicans hate intelligence because the exposes how phenomenally stupid they are and the fact that they are marching everyone to death because they think there is a magical man in the sky that's going to give you an even better life after living a self life
