  • By any measure it's been a grim day for the Conservatives - they lost the by-election for an MP in Blackpool South thanks to a massive swing to Labour, they're on track to lose around half of the local election council seats they contested and their projected national vote share is down to a dismal 25%.
    With so many losses, Rishi Sunak has described the night as 'disappointing'. But he’s sure voters will stick with the Tories come the general election.

Or the years of brutal oppression of eight million Muslims and Arabs by ISIS. Or the nearly 70 thousand political prisoners in Egypt alone. Or the fate of the Kurds denied a their own state by the Turks and the Arabs. Or the fate of a million Muslim refugees being expelled from Pakistan. Or if anyone cared about the tens of thousands of Palestinians expelled by Kuwait. Or if they asked why Palestinians are still in 'refugee camps' two generations after their grandparents and great parents fled Palestine. Of if they had demanded Gaza and the West Bank be given independence when they were part of Egypt and Jordan. But in fact you hear next to nothing about any of these. Because the perpetrators of the crimes are other Muslims and/or Arabs and there is a golden rule that nobody criticises the Ummah. They are absolutely passionate about Palestine because the enemies are Jews. Little Syrian kids were murdered by other Syrians so nobody cared.
      To be clear, I am not saying it is wrong to care about Palestinian children being murdered in Gaza. I am saying I don't believe your motives for claiming to care. I think you hate the Jews more than you love the Palestinians.

But we don't need to insult voters by saying they were voting with their hearts instead of their heads, because it just isn't true.

      Completely agree with you on this. Greens and LibDems have a much larger share of votes both in local and general elections. Yet Richard Tice and his party are still given a comparatively inflated amount of broadcast coverage in recent months.
      Sure, if they did manage to secure seats in the upcoming elections, they'll have earned the right to media attention. But currently, they are being given a platform without properly being challenged on their policies, funding strategies or the party's official governance structure.
      I truly hope that their future will be short lived and inconsequential.

      I get the issues with the two (main) party system, as I don't want us to head down the American path, but do you honestly understand what Reform UK was set up to do?
      It is after all a party of failed Tories, with the same money that's now jumping ship now it knows they're facing electoral oblivion.

    Meanwhile the UK is on-track of becoming overall poorer than Poland. If you remove London, the rest of the UK is literally one of the poorest areas of Europe. It's fucking depressing what they managed in such a short time.

      15 years is not a short time.
      And London has always been over 90% of the British economy.
      We have nothing to trade with, only the London stock exchange and London tourism, and banks who want to be in London have contributed anything to this country financially.
