... voted for..

I didn't vote for them lot but many.. many did..

Voters only see two possible parties..   Labour  and  Conservative...
When one lets us down we vote for the other because they promise us better things and much change.. When they let us down we then vote for the other because they have learned lessons and know what the people want... and so it goes on..

Unfortunately the voters fear change yet desperately welcome it.. Yet do nothing about it..
Until we change our thinking it will continue... 
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

Reform will see a surge in the May elections - if we have any !

There will be one hell of a stink if they do defer them. My county isn't one slated so I should still get a vote.

No fear, for Rayner in on the case, with her eye for detail and encyclopaedic knowledge of facts and figures.

Could be worse.  Lammy could be sorting it out, obliviously unaware of where anywhere actually is.

Oh, yes.  You are absolutely correct.
It seems that most people in this country can only vote for the 'two main parties'.
Unfortunately, they have both let us down badly.

First BLiar, who I think started the mass illegal immigration, though its wasn't quite as bad then.
Then the Conservatives, who flips between several different PMs over 14 years, and yet did nothing.
Now we are back with Labour and I'm sure I don't need to say any more!

Reform is growing steadily, though due to our electoral system on the 'two main parties' they have an uphill struggle.  If only more people could think carefully and base their judgement on what they have actually witnessed.

Hopefully the modern trend which allows for more than two genders will spread into politics, and more and more voters will transition into followers of a party that actually cares.

Is there one?

Well, no.  But at least one in particular seems to be making the right noises.

One thing hopeful for me is that this transitioning thing can't get passed on as an hereditary trait.

Darwinistically, one would assume that to be the case.

Perhaps we'll even get a Reform candidate!  We didn't have that option, so we spoiled our papers.

We'll never stop mental problems happening.

Which is why all the Reform areas probably won't have elections in May 2025.

I did exactly the same.  I scrawled 'REFORM' across all the boxes.  I was determined to make my point!
