Seems like Reform party has supplanted the tories as UK’s main Conservative Party

It's too late for the UK ... the cat is already outta the bag there and across most of Western Europe but especially the UK and Spain.

Doesn't matter, the goal is to align with enough others to get 51% and get your agenda. The biggest single group normally gets ganged up on by the rest

When you have Scots telling Labour canvassers to "frick off" their doorsteps, repeatedly, they should realize they have a problem. But more empathy for illegals is the solution.

That is the reform party.

Reform is the UK version of “far right/ MAGA”

On paper at least.

I do not anything about UK politics or candidates. However the best thing about Trump is he is Trump. If Trump never ran for president, we would have been stuck with 2 compromised, globalist politicians.

Does the UK really have their version of Trump or is he another charlatan?

What a messed up system they have, and the Germans too.

I wish MAGA was far right. It’s not even close.

They could win every seat and control all things but they still have 10 million people who came from Mideast and India. It’s too late, they have been diluted into a non Anglo European people

Restore Britain is where it's at. They ran a small slate of candidates since they just got started. Their goal is the general in a few years.

These are local council elections, not a general election for Parliament.

There are something like 1400 seats in Parliament, so he must be including local elections. Otherwise that doesn't make sense.

No there are not. There are 650 seats in the Commons and those are not up for election today.

Correct, these are local council elections across the nation. It is definitely a harbinger.
