- While French voters ponder the temptation of the far right, across the Channel they are also campaigning. But there, it feels like the revenge of the moderates. Out with Little Britain Brexiteers, out with Jeremy Corbyn's hard left, in with a more genteel version of the Labour Party. Before 2016, Britain always seemed like that isle of temperance where the tabloid headlines screamed, but that was just a bit of fun to sell newspapers.

The British actually helped a lot of EU laws become reality in the past, but Boris, you are the reason the Brits no longer have a say in how EU laws are made, and then you complain about that? 😆
All we wanted was reform in the Eu.... you guys refused to entertain it and now you're all talking about reform... you guys failed us
Boris was on your side the whole time. You live in a reality show
@@Ampasss Well maybe there's some truth to that but boris and nigel did everything in their power to make the UK leave too.
The UK system has traditionally had 3 main parties. Left, Right and Centre. This has kept us away from more radical parties as there is a definite choice. In the UK we tend to give one side a good run like 12+ years then we get tired of those guys and switch to give the other team a go on the other side. If you are annoyed with both the Centre party is a sensible choice. The challenge now to prevent more radical voting is for Labour to acknowledge the issues that right wing parties gain votes on and action solving these problems. In France I believe President Macron combined the left and right into 1 party so if people are fed up with them there is only the parties to the left of the left and to the right of the right available to vote for.
How long the UK will rejoin the Single Market if Sir Keir declines to deal with a softer kind of Brexit?
It is the electoral system. Labour got less percentage of the votes than the last time when they lost big time. The right was split. This is fatal in the first past the post system. All the holier than thou politicians will soon get their snouts in the trough.
Didn't see any racist discourse in the video clips shown...what is that lady talking about? Immigration in all Western countries is far too much...one only has to visit to see the reason the Host citizens are concerned. Time for a moratorium of at least 10 years on all immigration/illegal migration with some exceptions for those bringing wealth and job creating businesses to country.
Are you aware that most Western countries are facing ageing populations and may not have enough taxpayers to cover the costs? The real issue is that wealth is increasingly concentrated at the top, as small and medium businesses, which typically keep money circulating within the economy, struggle to compete with multinational corporations. Addressing this would require a global political movement. The elites want you to blame immigrants, employing a classic divide-and-conquer strategy.
google channel 4 reform exposed, that's what theyre talking about
Exactly
Yes. Hello to sensible Govt in both Britain and France.
The special relationship is reborn.And good luck to Germany too
No, their policies are supported by 5%, it's just to get rid of the Tories.
This is a fascinating conversation! Worth a watch
😂 it's like a study of a group in a mental asylum so by that measure I guess you are right.
Starmer UK Macron FR Von der Leyen EU. THATS VERY GREAT ALLIES
Well not all Freedom of movement with the EU has ended, cause we still do with Ireland
England will look like Iran in coming years after labour party win 😂 congratulations londistan Lmao 👏🎉
Labour Tory, Tory Labour..... is their actually a difference...
Yes! Wait.. no after 50 years.. I have to call them leftwing extremists, neither care for the uk citizens.
*there
Lol typical leftie comment 😂😂😂😂 nothing to say but critical in one word. Sums there're comment up 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Tons
Boho it's a joke imo
Moderates? Inform yourselves.
Correct, labour is more like right wing lite, their policies are fairly indistinguishable from the Conservative position on many things. They aren't moderate, even if they are marginally better than Conservatives on some issues.
@ComradeCatpurrnicus I think you mean they are both leftwing but they are almost indistinguishable
@@user-wj7cv9hb5j I meant exactly what I said. Labour is viewed as left wing or center-left, but it's more like center-right, the Tories are right wing, and Reform is far right.
Unfortunately
So not a single person likely to be sympathetic to anything to the right of far left.
I disagree importing professionals from overseas rather than streamlining British students in the education system and into these higher paid professionals positions. …this is happening in all commonwealth countries. This is displacing citizens from middle to upper wage earners with imported labour who in many cases don’t provide a standard of care and form cliques in the workplace with their own kind including language. I’ve seen this first hand.
Dudes this is the UK not France! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Looks like Le Pen Will lose again dude. 😂😂😂 Starmer Von der Leyen and Macron was great allies. Don't forget that
@@stevenandrean2661 you again. Delusional.. take your meds pal.
Yeah God help us all
As the UK shows, the loonie right is not the answer.
@@antonkarlsson7664labor is communist. Period. You have a completely incoherent sense of reality.
@@azurebadgerLol you have no idea whatsoever what communism is, do you?
It's amazing that these people aren't challenged when they spew lies. Cite or state where your proof is from
Let's go R.N
RN does not have the numbers,
immigration went up. legal immigration. India, Pakistan, Nigeria, Ghana. Students with dependants, care workers also. 2021-2024 come in to uk 5.4 millions and the exodus of EU citizens decrease more 200%,
yes, you got rid of the educated polite whites and replaced it with brexit Britain fantasy controlled immigration that will in one generation take over this country.
Oh illegal immigration went way up! Just like it’s swamped Europe.
Wake up. We didn't want either! It wasn't this or this and people said yeah we want boaties. The country has been betrayed.
@@user-wj7cv9hb5j think before you act. None of the countries which Farage said will leave stayed ( Netherlands, Austria, France,Italy) in EU. I’m wondering why? Because they realise we are stronger together. Eastern European countries will not gone need anymore to work in West in 3-5 years. Poland minimum wage is 950£/month and it’s getting closer compared with 🇬🇧. Romania already took over Italy on cost of living and soon UK. So British needs to go to work not immigration work for them. It’s coming to an end. We must comeback to look after our courtyard.
@Arrigato995 100% we need to get all the unemployed in our own country working. Greece 6 day week yet we are giving money away. Rise of Eastern Europe and demise of Western. Anyway I put my vote for reform in. If tomorrow is labour I'm closing my businesses. A rental company and consultancy company and leaving. I'm done. Ir35, corporation taxes, personal income taxes school fee rises. No more enough is enough.
Listening from India.
Completely wrong analysis. Most are unenthusiastic about Labour as that will mean higher taxes, more immigration and more net zero policies. People are just refusing to vote Conservative as they have down the opposite to what those who voted for them wanted. The likely outcome is as much to do with the British electoral system as it does to a change in the mood of the people.
Absolute B.S
The simple question for tiny r@ci$t$.
What happens to the NHS without immigration?
@@henresearch not one of the boaties works for the nhs. Of the 700k a year how many go to the nhs? If we stop importing people we can get on top of the problem. Of your cup is overflowing do you keep pouring in more? Or let it overflow making more of a mess. Face it, he is right 100%.
UK and France will get a big surprise. Let them eat cake days are over😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
One will swing to the left and the other to the right -- so where's the similarity? Also, Labour has experience governing, while RN has none. You didn't think through your comment, did you?
Vote Reform UK 🇬🇧 at the General elections and lets get our country back 😊 😀
why are we still required to take the country back? Farage said we will take the country back post Brexit. it has not been donkey years post Brexit and we still have to take the country back? If so then we need to take it back from Farage, back to normality away of the stupid one brain cell Reform UK party. and one brain cell entitled tories who lie every time they open their mouth. and are surprised suddenly that people are no longer listening to their lies and finally started looking at their actions. which were and are criminal.
Prenez vos meds
@@yangtse55The puppet lefty speaks and says nothing. VOTE LE PEN VOTE REFORM.😊
@@yangtse55 You're gonna be sent home loooooool
Long live mari le pen....long live farage...long live Putin. ....long live trump
They're birds of a feather all right.
