The Reform UK Party (latest nigel farage vehicle) is it to be laughed at or not

How do they even think that's meant to happen without starting a trade war or something? Why do they even think the French would accept them once they are out of their territry? We wouldn't.
 
I mean wtf does ‘cultural pillage‘ mean? People coming over here and stealing our culture? Taking warm beer and cricket back to whence they came from? I mean it literally makes no sense whatsoever.
 
Having had Lee Anderson jump onboard, and thus becoming their first MP.

There's more bad news for the Tories, as their mayoral candidate for Manchester has deflected to them, opps.

Not that he had any chance of winning running as a Tory, and even less with Reform, but it's a pain in he arse for the Tories.

I read in the Manchester Evening News last year than the obnoxious Nick Buckly , who was the Reform Candidate in the last Mayoral elections, was going to stand as an independent . You are right about no chance. Burngam won in the first round , Tories couldn't even get 10% and some non entity Tory standing for Reform isn't going to make a dent.
 
They're just the new UKIP right? I mean nobody even mentions UKIP anymore but it's all those old UKIP voters they're bringing along now.

Farage quit ukip and started "brexit party" taking his voters with him. "Brexit party" later changed name to "reform party" (shortened to "refuk" by jokers on here :D ).

Ukip still going but probably has about 10 members left.

Not to be confused with the "reclaim party" which is just that laurence wotsisname bloke that LeytonCatLady likes to wind up.
 
i used to love the bnp website, they gave out so much information about their personnel on there it was shocking. and then their fucking webmaster took down the site and it was never as useful again
Didn’t the webmaster have a bit of a tiff with the party and ran off with his toys, which fucked them over a bit? I love how fractious the far right is, may they continue to fall on their arses.

This seems like a good opportunity to mention the highlight of Nick Buckley's campaign for mayor so far, when he agreed to speak at some tiny far-right crank rally, then when he saw a big Palestine demo coming down the road he turned around and legged it, taking the organisers' microphone with him, and then later claimed to have been attacked by thugs and posted up a picture of antifascists fighting with the Metropolitan Police outside the National Gallery in 2017. A fantastic bit of comic work that, Partridge-worthy.
 
The weird thing about Buckley was that for some time he was a leading light in a youth charity that did some very good work in Manchester for all communities.
 
The BNP must seem like a ghost story to some. Such a threat that any talk about voting reform always used them as a bogey man. They won seats at Council level and ultimately the European Parliament. They had, by some measures, succeeded.

And now they're a footnote, a tale we tell ourselves. Of course Suella etc use their language and policies so maybe that's why but still.
 
I love how they think they're vagabonds defying the tyranny of woke authoritarianism with their ferocious acts of subversive resistance, like, eating too much chocolate.
The other day I saw a thing making fun of people who've gone so far down the culture war rabbithole that they can't enjoy anything without first making up someone getting angry at them and telling them they can't do it. Think it might've been specifically inspired by this, but Farage eating chocolate definitely counts as well:

dril also beat Farage to this one:

Is there not enough grift in ‘They've banned Xmas!’ anymore, such that they have to invent Easter being banned too? Is that what is going on?
