You need to clear the site before you can rebuild with something newer and better suited to the 21st century.

Do you think the reputed to be 5,000 people at the NEC earlier today are racist & homophobic?

What about the 130k people who watched it online, are they racists and homophobes as well.

That’s an awful lot of racist homophobic people, and they are all voting for reform according to you.
Did he charge for this one?
No idea, I never went, nor looked into what the admission policy was.

I’m sure you could find out, try google.
£5 a time, again.
So?

Other parties are happy to accept massive donations.

Do you think it's not possible that 0.2% of people in the UK are racist?
Racism isn't confined to people with white skin or reserved for people with darker skin.

£15m odd apparently for the Tories, I’m sure Stewie will be along to correct me if I’m wrong. hehe

That sir, is a very astute characterisation.
Absolutely. But the two main parties are project managers who won't acknowledge some key buildings are condemned, so to some he is at least a step forward.
Only to people stupid enough to overlook all the obvious nonsense he spouts.

The fact that he makes it all sound simple doesn't make it true....appeals to 2 types of people.. far right and idiots.

Considering the 2 major ones. The in power tries have made a major hash of everything and continue to disgrace themselves. Labour have the sense to say pretty much nothing, while the Tories make their case.

Much of the right-leaning former Tory supporters have veered further right and intend to vote for reform in protest. They can't grasp that this is really a vote for labour. Can't argue that this is anything other than stupidity.

Everybody with a functioning brain should vote for the least-bad feasible outcome (in their opinion).

Any other stance is plain stupidity.
Unfortunately, stupidity is not in short supply.

Reform candidate quits the party - https://news.sky.com/story/election-2024-poll-suna...

"Whilst I have campaigned alongside many decent, honest and hard-working people during the course of the general election campaign in Erewash, the reports of widespread racism and sexism in Reform have made clear that there is a significant moral issue within certain elements of the party, and the failure of the party's leadership to not only take this matter seriously, but also to fundamentally address it, has made clear to me that this is no longer a party I want to be associated with."
Is this chap another actor ?

Yep the people who swallowed it in 2016 certainly were idiots. You brought about all the immigration that you were conned into thinking would be controlled by Brexit.

That's the thing with idiots..they are easily fooled and tend to not learn from their mistakes.

Something designed by Albert Speer, built to last the whole of Farage's Thousand Year Grift?
