What did Campbell just say that triggered mad nads?

Is this a little weird on C4, round the table with 4 parties, none of them being the one that actually looks to have won?

Reminds me of United losing and nobody interested in those that won.

It hasn’t risen, but Reform absolutely represents a far-right movement in the UK and should be taken seriously in that context.

Reform are not a far-right party. They're certainly a right leaning party but far-right is perhaps pushing it.

You mean they were restrained?...

Yeah, ultimately. I think they've took the p*** out of the electorate and the party panicked. Truss replacing Johnson and then Sunak in attempt to limit the damage.
It hasn't worked obviously. But had it not been for Covidgate Boris would have put all sorts of policies through.

Funny one from earlier - a lass I know from my local Lidl lived with her mum and dad then she and her partner bought the house next door. She told me she went in to vote not knowing the system ( I know ) so produced her driving license. She hasn't changed it so the address in number 12 when she lives at number 14 and told them that was her address when asked. They concentrated so hard on the picture and her face they didn't seem to get the address discrepancy and she voted.

edit update - is that voter fraud?

Photo ID is to identify you, not your address.

The rise of Reform should be deeply troubling to anyone sensible. I can see the rise of the far right creeping across the world and it’s worrying.

It is.

Within minutes of the exit polls and the Tories are fighting amongst themselves live on TV.

Uk, just the latest country to March into fascist winning seats at the ballot box… I fear the lapping waves will become tsunami’s on the back of Trump/2025 in the US

Let’s hope that does not happen… but I do worry about that, as well.

I wonder if we will actually see a round rejection of fasicism in the next five or so years after electorates around Europe see the actual “policies”, maliciousness, and brutal vagaries of the far-right.
