Reform are defined by what they are opposed to. They have no actual policies
Their manifesto at the last election stated their policy aims in broad terms but lacked detail. The tax / spending cuts and investment statements would be financially unworkable and hugely injurious to the country.
Youāre correct on their definition. And itās easy to be gobby from the sidelines when they have no responsibility. Now they have responsibility though. Will be interesting to see how they use it and defend the inevitable failings.
A microcosm of modern geezer based Britishness in that definition as well
I see Labour have got the trade deal with India over the line which is good news
India have set a target of increasing exports by $1tn by 2030 - they have almost unlimited cheap labour - I reckon there could be a falling out with China at some point, because that $1tn is likely to come from them
It will be chinese factories in India
The west gave China its tech.
India is great at making stuff cheaply, not so great at the creative side.
Maybe in q0 /15 years they could get mobile phones and data centre products to market
Fuck 'em allā¦

Absolutely spot on. But sadly people will take no notice because itās not what they want to hear.

It also rather overlooks the small problem posed by the fact that the groups ripping us off are also the groups that decide whoās going to be in or out of government. Democratic elections have been largely an illusion for as long as I can remember, and itās only getting worse. How many people actually voted in the last election for a party they approved of? Iād bet very few, most people voted against what they didnāt want rather than in support of what they did, because what they did want wasnāt on offer from any party. And if it had been, that party would have been nobbled in double quick time.
Hold your nose voting
I think this will get a lot of love hereā¦

Incidentally, itās not just us. The recent German elections returned AfD as the second largest party, with a large share of the vote. The government has now classified them as an extremist organisation, just in case the other parties pledges not to work with them in government isnāt enough to keep them out of power. Democracy is fine until those currently in charge donāt like the result.
Not just you.
Candidate for Preseident lied in the debate and has abused a sick old man for personal financial gainā¦

Looks like someone tried to torch Starmers house (his actual one not no10)
Starmerās latest speech promises a crackdown on illegal immigration.
I never knew he was a far-right extremist.
Itās probably just his pants again.
