Election Year or Fear!

[Andy_Faber]

Because the collective failure of those who have gone before doesn?t justify handing over the reins to those who we already know have nothing to offer and whose only contribution to date (Brexit) has only served to exacerbate the situation.

But your ?we? is just four old farts on a moribund forum, it doesn?t represent the plebiscite who it would appear to be more open to giving someone new a chance

My ‘we’ referred to that percentage of the electorate who have sufficient intelligence and insight to recognise Farage and Reform’s shortcomings rather than the majority on here who feel the same.

More interesting perhaps is your disrespectful reference to ‘four old farts’ on a ‘moribund forum’. If that’s your perception maybe it’s you who should ‘be more open to giving someone new a chance’. Certainly wasn’t a ‘moribund forum’ when you took over.

To agree with me???

What elitist socialist arrogance - I hope this attitude is not typical of today's generation of teachers. Everyone who disagrees with me must be unintelligent? Really? Thats a statement I'd expect of Farage et al but not from a liberal woke individual at least historically responsible for developing the intelligence of generations of children, no doubt many of whom are now Reform supporters (statistically)

I noticed that too. ?You disagree with me therefore you must be thick?

MM, lots of assumptions there, one that RA is a socialist, not sure how you have arrived at that conclusion? woke? FFS grow up and stop repeating ad infinitum phrases pumped out by right wing media and grifters.

Many of who are Reform supporters? (statistically), and your evidence for such a statement is what?

RA wasn't IMO stating that everyone who disagreed with him was unitelligent, but that those who voted for Reform were perhaps not very bright. Which is after all merely a statement that is at least partly true. Obviosuly there will be those who have intelligence but like the openly racist and xenophobic nature of Reform's statements.

But increasingly they aren't someone new are they? Not they ever were new, just same face different clothes. But thats the point being made. Also despite the polls (nearly 4 years ahead of any election) which in any case don't take into account the vagaries of the UK election system and so can only be an indictaion the plebiscite at the moment isn't a majority for Reform.
