I shall be voting for Reform. The Conservatives ceased being conservative and failed to deliver a single thing in their lying manifesto.
The arrogance of the Tories is quite telling isnt it? That they think they can decide who governs this country is quite breathtaking.
Can't even govern themselves.
The obvious implication being made is that an established political party with a long-term track record might better know how to run the country, fill various ministerial positions, and maintain some level of stability rather than Bob and Billy from the Reform Pub in the dodgy back alley. I'm tired of the Tories but is it really that arrogant if it's true? I guess we'll see what happens on election day.
I think the red and blue teams are in for a bit of a shock come election day.
đđđđ
Are you sure you understand what's going on?
That opinion of yours could apply to any of the parties.
Why do you insist on posting nonsense?
Why not wait until the election is over?
There's nothing in the Labour manifesto to get excited about. Ditto the rest of the manifestos, although Farage says his manifesto is not a manifesto and is a contract between Reform and electors.
Utter semantic bilge.
If only you were bright enough to understand realpolitik, but you aren't.
ââ@@gemcosta4190we can categorise people in all sorts of ways. businessman, public school, working class...ad infinitum.
Government/ democracy is by the people for the people. which seems to be overlooked.
Michael Gove is the absolute epitome of whats wrong with British politics today.
Yep! God complex.
And totally self unware what a w most of us think he is.
As much as I dislike Gove he`s right about Mr Farce.
It's time he stopped feeding his nose.
â@@localreviewking134 " F A R A G E. " ( 5 out of 10 for spelling )
The fact that Gove thinks anyone gives a flying fig what he says is amazing
My problem is why times radio gives them airtime!
@@johngreen8996 Well it could be renamed Tory Wet Radio...
Spot on sir !
Oh yeah Gove, you and your party have proved totally inadequate in governing the country đź
Im not going to hear Gove more than 5 minutes...ex Tory voter here, over 40 years ! No more...my family and friends VOTE will go to Reform party ! Labour and Tory's have destroyed our country, Torys destroyed themselves ! God help us with Labour in !
Do you know anything about the progress the last labour government made?
@@danmorley6517 yeah not a lot of progress there either. both have been awful.
Welcome aboard.
Just listening to this weasel talk for 30 seconds should be enough to secure your vote for Reform.
Harman wants a seat in the house of lords. The house of lords needs to be abolished.
Oh my Lord that is true
@@darmou it is true. Harman has said with no shame she wants a seat in the house of lords. The woman has leeched of taxpayers money for the last 40 years and now wants to get ÂŁ300 a day in the house of lords. It is disgusting the house of lords is still going and labour is going to stuff it full of has-been former MPs.
No... we need it to be renamed with less haughty name ,and be of people born here and of long standing as well ,with huge estates to worry about losing to invaders from overseas The E E C for a kick off. JUST AS IT USED TO BE
"...Can't govern this country.."
Like Blair, Boris, Sunak, Truss, Corbyn?
Exactly
Oh God. You're right. They where useless, and Farage is useless.
Corbyn never had the chance unlike the other failures.
Cameron created the Brexit debacle ...He got smug.
@@rialobran Corbyn made Michael Foot look cool...Even Bishop Auckland voted against him.
Reform will give a contract for what they are going to do.đŹđ§ the others just lie.
Are you actually serious? Do you know farages record on lies? The Brexit referendum?
Says the slimiest man in politics
Next to Starmer and Blair and Heseltine
I would like to see the Tories getting less than 80 seats.
I'd like to see them getting less than 10... đ€
Just so long as it is less than the LibDems.
@@grahamwall9294 100% agree. Less than 10 seats deserved.
I would lose any sleep if they got no seatsđ
2.
Sounds like sour grapes to me đ
Sour is an under statement.
"Nigel Farage provides amusement and diversion. What he does not provide is authority and good governance." - from Michael Gove, Boris's biggest cheerleader/backstabber. Oh the ironing.
Gove and Sunak don't back stab everyone to get to the top for the good of the country. They do it for there own self interest.
What's your ironing got to do with it?
@@hypsyzygy506 not a Simpsons fan I see
Yeah and not forgetting what he did to Cameron..
Ironing is a very cromulent expression to use
As a Conservative voter and the Parliamentry party have been a disgrace! Replacing Prime Ministers like its an amazon delivery.
Farage as PM ridiculos says Gove. It's not more ridiculous than Boris or Truss as PM.
I'm sorry
Tories had their chances, and totally blew them all. All COVID showed was how bad the corruption was and the amateur ineptitude of politicians of all sides.
So what Farage appears to be a showman
Who knows he may be quite good
And couldn't do worse than the current crop of eeejits
Labour wrecked their plans so did judges so did Europe so did left wing Unions So did Truss and May amongst others
how can you ask people to vote for a conservative party that isnt conservative . these people are completely detatched from reality
What's this new definition of conservative that reform voters seem to have invented? I've always hated Tories but you couldn't really justify calling them fascists. Reform certainly have the potential to be just that.
michael gove WRONG VOTE REFORM !!
Vote Raving Loony Party.
@@philipwookey599 thats prob who you vote for i prefer to vote to get our country back !!
Reform for me.
And where were you Micheal Gove and the other 649 Westminster MPs in the commons debates on the excessive deaths of British citizens. We pay you and the others 91,000 p/a plus allowances and expenses and you treat us like this! You have shown nothing but contempt for us, our dead and suffering people; my vote is now so important that my very mortality depends on it!
You'd better check the NHS policies of the parties then.
Mr Gove what do you have to offer? You have left the political arena for a likely post as editor of the Times.
Your opinions are toast. Ta, ta. đ
I shall be cracking open a bottle of champers if the Tories get zero seats.
Hereâs the old order - swept away by the grim reality they both created. Get gone. đŹđ§đŹđ§
I want my country back.
Stop farage and his enablers stealing it from the British people.
Can anyone actually watch this beyond the second minute? Gove and Harmon đ€ŠđŒââïžđ€ąđ€źđ€ź
i got to 18 seconds, everything he was saying was completely true and appliable to the Tories.
Yes, I'm not a far left loon.
I made it as far as 1:20.
These people have forgotten we live in a democracy and they are public servants that we decide if their opinion matters or not.
The Tories destroyed themselves.
Iâm voting Reform
Like a wealthy fool
Why would you waste a vote?
Have you any idea what's happening around you?
Allow me: of course you don't.
This Reform party nonsense is just the comedy turn.
Farage might be a "blokey bloke" but not a PM.
Many of their candidates are BNP supporters ...What inspires you to vote for them?
@@t1n4444 Only the seriously thick would believe Farage is anything other than a grifter. He's as far from a 'blokey bloke' as it gets, being the son of a stockbroker, private school educated, ex commodities banker and alleged fraudulent MEP. The smoking and pint swilling should fool nobody.
How to say you are an idiot without saying your an idiot.
We are voting Reform. These heathens can go.
mickey gove calling anyone else âridiculousâ is ridiculous
In my opinion, Mr Gove has given up the right to comment on this issue having turned his back on us in Surrey Heath, Mr Farage will give you all a shock if you are not careful.
Replacing sunak with starmer is like changing your tie when you've shat your pants
The Tories canât even agree on the time of day as a government. How on earth could they form an effective opposition?
No-one is going into a voting booth thinking âOoh Iâd better vote tory in case labour get too many MPsâ
What planet is he on?
ReformUK are more serious than you Michael Gove. I will be voting ReformUK. You have no record to show me.
Why do we have to listen to Gove who will be picking up his P45 on the 5th, he is a prefect example of why the Tories are in trouble, I always think his name should have been Timothy
tim nice but but dim. harry enfield character
@@markguttridge4972 I was thinking more of Ronnie Corbett Character
Nigel cannot do worse than RISHI SUNAK WHO HAS FAILED THIS COUNTRY PHENOMINALLY.
Reform has no infrastructure to run a country they have no base if they will get in it wilol be atleast 10 years from now if ever. If farage doesnt get elected as an MP he will be back in USA following Trump he doesnt care an iota about this country
Pauline, putting things in block capitals doesn't make it more true.
@@danmorley6517 made you read it!
@@danmorley6517 YET IT IS TRUE!!
Vote Reform!!
Vote BNP.
No
Gove is so annoying, sad that BBC sponsored him as it sponsored Johnson. The Times is so pro tory
So was I for nearly 25 years and labour for a great deal longer. Never again! Neither worth my trust. VOTE REFORM.
Vote deform
After Boris, no-one can be ridiculous as PMâŠ
Great point
I never thought I would say but for the first time ever I will vote Reform just too rattle both The Tories & Labour.
Good lad!
Well said đ
The Monster Raving Loony Party needs your vote!
Love to hear this! Voting reform too
@@hypsyzygy506 He is voting reform not labour.
Vote Reform đŹđ§đŹđ§đŹđ§đŹđ§
Get Nazi's
Gove is also not fit to govern
Gove wanted to be PM. Now that is ridiculous.
Gove will be prime minister after starmer has the path for him...he will make thatcher look like mother Theresa
Vote reform.
Michael Gove and Harriet Harman are has beens sounding bitter and sour!
The undeniable truth is that everything is getting busier, more traffic on the roads, more queues in the shops, more overflowing bins. Have you seen Bournemouth beach recently on a sunny day,? good luck finding a parking space that's all I can say.
Look it doesn't take a genius to realise that quality of life is going down for the vast majority of people as the population reaches new heights literally day by day.
The UK already has the highest population it has ever had in its entire history, if you have kids that will grow up here you should be particularly concerned about this. The Tories have promised time and time again to reduce immigration and failed everytime. We have to vote Reform on July 4th, it's like a duty at this point. This country is in desperate need of something new.
Tories have not served democracy well.
I'm sooooo voting Reform
BoŃis JohĐžsoĐž as Prime Minister?
Ridiculous!
The Tories have drifted so far left they might as well join Labour.
precisely
"Bank of talent in Parliament"!?! Gove eyeing a career in stand-up, is he? Funniest thing I've heard for ages đ
I didnt listen to it all. Did he actually say "Bank of talent"? What a pompous self important individual.
Luck itâs a Steel bench otherwise it might self ignite with the lies coming from Mr Gove

Well he would have a job to be any worse than school boy gove
Reform and thats all
Fascists and that's all.
Michael Gove said much the same about Boris Johnson - and then supported him to become PM.
You heard it here folks; Labour (Harman): "the Tories cannot be an effective opposition"
To all Labour voters; since you have already won, if you want an effective opposition, vote Reform UK đ
Let the Red Wall voters transfer their votes to Reform where they can matter.
Reform is the only choice.
@@leehighland5435 If you want to turn Britain into Somalia in the North Sea, it sure is.
No more ridiculous than Starmer as PM.
Indeed, and Sunak never even won a vote to be PM, a media backed coup to stop remotely right wing Truss and replace her with their globalist net zero puppet.
I loathe this man. A coward who fled now we voting. He would have lost his seat. Reform UK
Why not???? They gave every other Labour and Tory flop a chance to prove their party would make a difference. Why not Nigel?
Because he's an useless toad. Just like Boris, Cameron and Truss.
How the fk is Trans Rights an issue worth discussing in the General Election ,
I guess we know what's coming with Labour , more Woke shyte shoved in our faces .
Can you imagine the debates in Parliament with Farage as the opposition in regards to Wokeness, Diversity, Pronouns and Net Zero, It's going to get tasty, All we need now is spitting image to make a comeback đ€Łđđ€Ł
The âbank of talentâ?! Quote of the century!
WHAT DO YOU CALL YOUR TIME IN PARLIAMENT OVER THE PAST 14 YEARS? A SUCCESS?đđ
No other party can be worse than the Conservatives Mr back stabber Grove
Why are these old fogeys coming out of the woodwork.
Vote Reform
Michael Gove with the sneering condescension. Pathetic. Jealous.
Goodbye Mr Gove, I hear you are off to advise Labour on Housing Policy next.
Gove simply has to "come out of the closet" soon.
Gove âwe are against wokeâ

1984 wasnt a rule book
Th problem with our current crop of politicians in the Westminster hive is that they all suffer from delusions of adequacy.
yeh i wish the next new government were going to get would change the health n safety laws, all this Trading standards, and health n safety over the top nonsense, i bought a can of wood preserver the other day and i really struggled to get the top of the can, im over 60, but problem is they want everything to be that safe, that you cant even get access to it, few years back creosote was real creosote, it was better quality now its not the same, shop keepers can no longer sell what they used to sell either, everythings dangerous according to the trading standards, and government, , if a kid falls of his bike are they going to try and ban kids bikes, i wonder? fireworks, and guns are only real dangerous things, but anything can be dangerous if misused, they cant ban everything.
Voting Conservative is a vote for the other Socialist party, Labour.
Check out the candidates they have now put on safe seats: all of them leftists.
Watching the Gove interview on GMB this morning brings into focus the chaos of a government of incompetents, completely lacking in integrity, pretending to be intellectuals.
To have an idea is an act of creativity. To be an idea is an act of insanity.
Because of course Mr Gove, your Government has done such a sterling job in; controlling immigration, getting national debt under control, keeping mortgages and rents affordable, cutting NHS waiting lists, law and order, etc, etc. Still at least showing up and showing due respect with other World Leaders at the D-Day commemorations, was a no brainer, oh, wait...
I thought Gove was intelligent⊠this proves without doubt heâs completely deluded and out of touch⊠bye bye old tories đđđ
Goves must have had a detox from the old gear and drink. Amazing what a few days off it can do.
They would say these things wouldnt they!!To misquote Mandy Rice-Davies
Let's go REFORM
Didnât they say trump had no chance too?
Snotty nose springs to mind gove and his terrible accomplices couldn't govern a shoebox
So Andrew not in the Time Radio studio again - seems he prefers hosting from his home in France
There's more pies there,
@@philipwookey599 When he joined Times Radio I knew this would happen. He doesn't seem to like living here (who can blame him)
Human beings need to give PEACE and CHANGES a CHANCE,REFORM, REFORM, and REFORM ALL the WAY God BLESS US đ đ â€ïž â„ïž âšïž
Michael Gove - ridiculous.
His wife - even more ridiculous!
Watch out don't turn your back, Gove is on the prowl.
I AM VOTING FOR REFORM!
Farage would make a better leader than Gove.
21sr Century Farage v Prehistoric Dinasaur Gove I think its a no brainer really.
Why do journalists think that these people are talented? They are out of touch, arrogant and dismissive. They represent everything I despise about our political system. VOTE REFORM!
Now you are trying to scare voters that it will be our fault if labour get in. No, you are why they may get in. You messed up! You are splitting the reform vote CONSERVATIVES STAND DOWN! I will have my voice counted even if labour get in, i will have at least had my say. Reform have great policies and i support them unlike trying to pick the least worst of the others. REFORM â€â€ đŹđ§đŹđ§đŹđ§đŹđ§
Let's be honest. We could do a lot worse than have Nigel as pm.
But as for Gove....Having the cheek to talk down on Reform is a bit rich after the failure of the conservative party.
''you all laughed. Well I have to say. You're not laughing now.'' (farage)
He's just added another point to Reform's pollling.
Farage is the most influential politician in the last 20 years. Gove will be a forgettable footnote.
I've already forgotten.
It is funny hearing a Tory claim another party is merely entertainmemt, has he seen what's going on in his own party lately? Talk about a pantomime...
So what would you call Liz Truss as Prime Minister?
Naive of the coup that she surrendered to.
Never given a chance. Was just a buffer between Johnson and Sunak.
Clueless. Missing in action. Delerious. Foolish. Gullible. Pathetic.
Gove? A none person as far as politics goes. A useless sunak the second . Now thats a fact! Shakespeare countryUK
After Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss, Sunak - Nigel Farage is a step up.
Somebody's upset that Farage stands more chance of being PM than him - ;-)
Michael Goves negative, denial comments about Reform UK will make more and more British People make the move to vote RU party.
I want to see a debate between Nigel Farage and Count Binface, I think the latter has better policies.
You clearly havent read any of the polices then.
Farage, Tice and Reform should be in a bin, that's for sure.
