Certain members on here who are banging on about what Farage is supposed to have said 50 years ago

[carmanmemoranda]

no even my hard left Labour campaigning mates have now said they will vote Reform.

You wouldn't have a labour supporter in your circle of friends.

 

[carmanmemoranda]

1-2 points up and down is not fading

Reform have peaked is what it shows

People just want rid of this disastrous Labour experiment.

Some do. Some don't.

Even the polls tell you that.

Come election time things are likely to be different to what they are now. And short memories come into play.

Question for everyone here, would you remember the political views(word for word) of Schoolfriends from 40+ years ago?

Not got a clue TBH.

Friends?

No.

They would need to be incredibly focussed (politically) to have any affiliations at all at that age. Just goes to show how bad Fromage had it even as a youngster.

It's not really about political viewpoints. It's about being a twunk, a bully and an all round POS. We had a similar guy in our year. For some reason, out of nowhere, he started calling one of our classmates 'The Jew'. And he got all his acolytes to do the same. Even though the boy in question was actually well known to be Catholic. And they did this for pretty much the whole two years before O Levels. Those sort of people stick in your memory.

Just testing whether you can write the word genocide on this thread.

 

[morqthana]

there are millions of people who do not want Reform in power and will vote tactically to prevent it

How do you know that? That’s just a wish of yours. Not factual in any way.

The first bit is undeniable.

As for the second:


More than half (57%) of Lib Dem voters and 46% of Green voters said they would vote tactically for Labour if they were in a seat where Reform looked likely to win.

Most surprisingly, a significant proportion of voters from Labour, the Lib Dems and Greens said they would be prepared to vote Tory if it could block a Reform seat victory.

Just over a third (34%) of Labour voters said they would vote for the Conservatives to stop Reform, along with 39% of Lib Dem voters and 19% of Green supporters.


So no, not "just a wish".

You can, I probably couldn’t if I was replying to Ellal.

The board was better before Notch joined.

How would you know? You joined 8 years after him, so you have no knowledge of what it was like before he joined.

His other name maybe

He could have racist/xenophobic/Islamophobic/antisemitic erstwhile Labour supporters in it

Most of the old duffers on here need to go back more than 40 years to get to school time

I was at school well over 40 years ago and there was no racism - because there was no foreigners.

We used to keep Johnny Foreigner in his own country and put down any trouble before it got out of hand.

That is as it should be, many foreigners simply cannot behave.
