Sorry, Le Pen (National Front/Rally) hasn’t risen anywhere (regardless of the method of doing so)?I do see Reform as somewhat moderate in some areas but yes extreme in others. I'm not willing to say Reform is far-right as in absolutely everything about them is essentially Nazism because that isn't true. I do not agree with their immigration policies but I just don't see the problem with some of their other policies. That doesn't mean I'm a far-right monster.
I can understand why people have voted for them but it's not because they're Tommy Robinson supporting thugs. This is why I'm saying there is no rise of the far-right. I don't see a rise in Nazism or extremism from the people I talk to, many of which I know have voted for Reform.
Le Pen hasn't risen anywhere, she has united the right in France and that's about it, 50% of France did not vote for Le Pen. It's the reverse of the UK, the right is split and the popular vote will show that the country is essentially split right down the middle. It's not like the right didn't exist before, it has always existed and that led to sequential Tory majorities but now it has split in half.
Inversely to what you have said, if you sit on the left then of course you will perhaps think that my political views are on the right.
Apparently 29.1% of Sunderland supports the far-right.I think you need to spend a bit more time listening to Reform candidates and also studying the history of how far-right movements have risen in democratic nations. And perhaps consider that your own political beliefs may cause you to see Reform as more moderate than it actually is.
If you would like to see some modern parallels, read up on Marine Le Pen’s and the National Front/Rally’s rise in France.
Not sure. Will be interesting to see turnout across the country.down from 57.8 to 52.1
Low turnout presumably benefits Reform??
I suppose the channel is nearby….It's near the coast so the locals might worry about some boats coming ashore.
Amazed at the lack of a fuck given by that Kwasi bloke. He sits there smiling and happy to be there. If I were him I wouldnt show my face unless I had anything to defend, he fucked the place upI think they are supplying them to kwasi and Nads.
Many without realising it, it seems.Apparently 29.1% of Sunderland supports the far-right.
Lab: 47.1% (+6.7)
Ref: 29.1% (+13.4)
Con: 13.8% (-19.2)
LDem: 5.7% (-0.2)
Grn: 4.3% (+1.6)
Even if you scale that down to voters, it's 15% which is madness.Apparently 29.1% of Sunderland supports the far-right.
Lab: 47.1% (+6.7)
Ref: 29.1% (+13.4)
Con: 13.8% (-19.2)
LDem: 5.7% (-0.2)
Grn: 4.3% (+1.6)
If that’s the way it goes, it will mean that others have failed to adapt to the nature of global politics.
And whilst people stick to ideologies rather than holding their nose, how can we complain?
Shame the last leg isn't on. They'd have sent the bloke with the tuba following him whilst they read the result.Please have Hunt fucking lose. Icing on the cake.
