It will depend i think on how badly labour do. Reform came second in 98 constituencies. 89 of which were labour.

Even more ironic is that the Labour vote is defecting to reform, but then its always been said that "old labour" voters were socially conservative folks.
Next election, just ask them 'Are you going to save the NHS?' Reform and Tories: 'Immigration blah blah immigrants blah...' [No.] Labour: 'Um... er... waffle...' LibDems. 'Yes. Yes we are.' Seriously, keep it that simple.
Can’t even put the work in to be an MP! What planet are the electorate living on, especially in the wake of the last lazy prime minister Johnson! They used to say one was a Conservative with a small “c” back in the day. They need to learn to walk before running!
Farage and his team has got 5 years to get sorted out and strengthen Reform's operation. I would not underestimate the potential to shake up the political map.. people want change. Lib Dems will not achieve that and Labour has to be successful to the electorate to govern after 2029.

I think he has about much charisma as a punctured bicycle tyre , maybe be I'm weird. Well you know, he is given a disproportionate platform, to pump up his already over inflated ego.
Yes. Mr F can certainly be a PM in the future. The UK is in very serious trouble. people live hand to mouth, pay check to paycheck, struggling to put food on the table and a roof over their heads regardless of how hard they work. The middle class is shrinking and poverty on the rise. The dominant right wing media is blaming the weakest and the persecuted minorities for the mistakes and greed and the ever growing riches of a small group who do not even live in the UK. The voting public will never take the time to research as to why they are poor slaves to the system. Angry and fuming with rage makes them so easy to manipulate and they will follow any vile populist conman over the cliff. Never underestimate how desperation and anger can cloud any reasoning.
Yes, but I think the common person is very tired of politics as it has been practiced by all politicians. The influential people, with lots of money can buy tings like newspapers, companies, and thus have a lot of influence on politicians. So any political party has to do at least a bit of their bidding. Unless one would have a majority voting extreme left or right, discarding the capitalist free market economy, which will most likely not be tolerated by other countries (read the USA, liberal EU).
The right wing media IS not blaming the weakest, the minorities for the rapid decline of Britain. It is blaming the Tories and Labour and their immigration policies of the past twenty seven years. It is revealing the left always wish to deflect blame from the Tories onto immigrants. They do this because of course they support Tory policies which have such a detrimental impact upon working class communities.
Why because he is going to get the economy booming again and close the borders, improve the lives of ordinary workers and be energy secure? What did Harris have to offer you?
I don't see Starmer in charge of Labour come the next election let alone winning ( not that it makes much difference who's in charge looking at the possible leader contenders). Likewise Badenoch will probably get the elbow before then, And as for Ed Davey, well he's neither use nor ornament and has as much political clout as the paddle board he pretended to fall off. And that's why Farage can become MP. Johnson won the previous election because of him, Brexit was achieved because of him. Trump was inspired by him. Look at what's happening in Europe and the swing to the right ( Italy, Netherlands , Sweden, Poland, Hungary) Le Penn and the NF in France.. and the rise of AfD in Germany...it can happen and Farage ( especially with the financial backing Reform is now receiving) can definitely do it, remember "Elections aren't won..they're lost"
I think that Starmer will probably stay in charge due to inertia, the one person who could challenge him within Labour, i.e Andy Burnham, unfortunately doesn´t have a seat in parliament ATM.
Nothing is impossible but this one is doubtful. Labour supporters would rather have Conservative PM, and (most, if not all) Conservative voters would rather have a Labour PM, rather than Farage.
I think even if Reform is the biggest single party in terms of the popular vote, the problem is it takes a lot more votes to elect a Reform MP than a Tory or Labour one.
Reform has a big problem when it comes to winning elections, namely that rightly or wrongly, it takes a lot more votes to elect a Reform MP than it does to elect a Labour or Tory one. That´s in part because the Reform vote is very concentrated in certain parts of the country, i.e the rust belt and coastal cities that have seen better days. So it´s not unrealistic that they will get slightly more votes than the Tories or Labour, but a Farage premiership is unlikely (unless he gets slightly more seats than the Tories and goes into coalition with them, which is unlikely). I think the easiest way for Farage to become PM, is if Badenoch gets dumped and Farage becomes the leader of the Tory party, though that´s unlikely as he won´t want to abandon the Reform party, he makes quite a lot of money out of it and has absolute control.
Tories came first in 121 seats and second in 293 seats, which means there are 236 seats where the race isn’t between Tory and Labour. So in that sense, the two party system is already fracturing. The Greens are another party who could pick up a lot of seats.
@ Really? What good has he ever done? What real thought out policies does he have? All he has is populism of the lowest dog whistle blowing kind. The fact that in all the years he was a member of the EU Parliament but rarely if ever attended and never had any constructive ideas , in particular I think of fishing - he attended precisely one meeting (the first) of the EU Parliament Fisheries Committee and never attended again. He admitted that the reason he went to the first meeting was to sign on as a member and that ensured he got paid per session thereafter for the next three years. That’s simply fraud. As to the UK fisherfolk he sold them down the river with a tissue of lies promising unregulated fishing and selling and untold wealth. The fact is that the f-k-g liar knows that worldwide fishing is governed by two things: first the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) and secondly by international trade rules and trade treaties that almost all include fishing. The fact that the EU Common Fisheries Policy is based on UNCLOS rules and that Brexit does not mean and could never mean a free for all for UK fisherfolk and that in fact the UK had a very generous quota per species of fish under the EU CFP was never mentioned by Nigel nor was the fact that starting with Thatcher UK fish quotas had been commodified as goods to be sold to the highest bidder and that the majority of UK fishing quotas under UNCLOS rules have been sold on in long term contracts by British fisherfolk themselves. Farage also neglected to find out the fact that fishing rights and the right to sell your catch are different things entirely and how now out of the EU and with a terrible trade deal - the EU-UK TCA is by deliberate design of hardline Brexiters am appalling trade deal for UK agriculture, fishing, manufacturing etc - the catch of UK fisherfolk cannot be sold in EU markets and Brits eat relatively little fish. Farage ruined the UK fishing industry and he now runs away from mentioning it. When asked in a recent Question Time to list the benefits of cutting and burning all trade links with the largest single market in the world and by far the UK’s premier trade market, Farage had no good answers. He can only fall back to the trope of ‘we never got a proper Brexit’ which is the standard argument of Reform UK. Nigel Farage is a charlatan of the worst order.
Plaid Cymru got four seats (just one fewer than Reform)… with 194,811 votes! They know how to concentrate their voter base and work like crazy in the constituencies they hold.
You look and sound like a decent and educated, experienced man, in which case why don't you run for election as a MP (Manipulated Puppet) yourself. I listen to others who produce experience, not guesswork

Well i voted REFORM in the last general election and judging by the quality of government we got i was definitely right to vote Reform. I WILL be voting REFORM in the next General Election.

Another Boris, Farage is good as a campaigner and playing the media but not as a fixer, a bureaucrat, and a leader who can bring opposing views together.. The Boris experience should teach us that. You do not ask a handymam to rewire your house. You get a qualified electrician .
No. Of course anybody's opinion on this is speculation. We are talking 4 or 5 years hence. My crystal ball is nowhere near that good. However there are a number of reasons why I say no. Not a chance. And just one I will offer that I think is significant because it is one which will resonate with everyone. Unavoidable. And that can be articulated as the question "can these people who have never ever delivered anything at all at the national or local level (Parliament/Council) be trusted to deliver what they say, just because they say so?" Labour and the Tories are credible because they have previous. Reform UK have none. Yes they have big gobs, but what have they actually delivered? Erm.... nothing. There is some rumour of Farage becoming PM as the Tory Leader, but I think that is wet dreaming by some. There are many on the Tory right who dislike him intensely, putting it mildly. Associating himself so intimately with Trump is a mistake. To promote his image (Farage is image not substance) he chose a poisoned chalice. Much too hot to handle. Out of his league. It will burn him.
You touch upon the issue that is a political crisis in many countries at the moment: a majority of voters are disenfranchised. They do not feel represented by the parties they supported, and do not see another option that suits them. And it isn't just not agreeing with every single policy of a party, but of feeling abandoned politically. This happened in France in The 18th Century, though this is now tragically misunderstood. The Revolution wasn't the result of peasants rising up because they couldn't afford bread, it finally began because The Third Estate, which consisted of people from the very wealthy to the very poor (and is where the term "Third World" is derived for the same reasons) felt entirely disenfranchised and declared The National Assembly with the other 2 estates (through outvoting them) and in direct defiance of Louis XVI. I've often found it interesting how this vital step in The French Revolution is always sidestepped or completely ignored in the teaching of it. I suppose if more people were aware of it, governments would be in far greater peril. After all, The French Revolution, while protracted and far from smooth, was much more successful than The Peasants' Revolution of The 14th Century in England.
Hopefully Farage does become our next prime minister. He his, by a country mile better and more realistic than the other main parties. Just like Trump and good on em.
Oratory alone will not help Farage, he is a divider and incapable of unifying the country. His heckling style incites discontent and exploits it to promote more withdrawal (first from the EU as UKIP and the Brexit ‘party’, now from the ECHR as RefUK) without regard for the consequences of which he is wilfully ignorant. Anybody willing to test his knowledge and understanding will be interrupted, gaslighted, bombasted aggressively to deflect and conceal the fact that he has no solutions other than to leave, abolish and utterly destroy for his own financial benefit.
Have you ever noticed Stamer hardly ever answers a difficult question? He obfuscats the conversation. Farage always answers questions directly and even if we don't share his politics, this gives him a disposition of integrity.
@@terryhandYou won't even accept the highly publicised truth that Starmer evades pretty much EVERY question put to him in Parliament. At least show some integrity which is more than can be said for TwoTier.
@MissFlight-q8f Well I have indirectly. I'm not sure quite how highly publised Starmer's inability to answer questions is, but most questions on PMQ are pretty loaded from both sides of the house. But yes, politicians evade difficult questions. But when a populist like Farage just offers a simplistic answer to a complex and difficult problem it's just another way of evading a question. In fact it is even worse because it implies that he has all the answers when he hasn't got any.
Heseltine never got there, Johnson did but look at his privilege and what a failure he was and to me Farage is Johnson Mk II but even worse. However, should Trump be a success doubtful then you never know what Farage might achieve.
The only reason reform UK have achieved as much as they have is because they get so much coverage in the media even before they had a single MP he has more coverage than any other MP I can remember in my lifetime. He chooses very carefully who he does interviews withand is given a easy ride. He was interviewed by James O’Brien on Lbc years ago and James taught him two bits. If he is asked difficult questions, he loses his temper because he is rarely called out.
Would the English 🏴 electorate vote for a far right English Nationalist party. Well yes they may very well do that. Wales, Scotland and NI would have next to zero influence over this situation. The people of Scotland 🏴 could very much revolt against this abomination.
I'm really hoping 'that thing' as you so churlishly call Mr Farage goes all the way to the top 🏴🇬🇧 It'll be novel to have someone who respects our country, culture and values at the helm
I agree with you on Farage and his narrow abilities. It would be so easy to trip him up if some real person was on the other end of a phone-in talking about normal stuff that goes on in the real world. He is a performer with a repertoire. In fact you get this a lot on social media. People have one or two pitches on a subject and go over the same things all the time. Personally it bores me. Once I have heard something I want to move on to other things or otherwise go deeper into a subject. It's actually more of a sales pitch in the way he uses constant repetition.
@@stewie7338 Green energy is one topic Farage is wrong about. He has had the same pitch all along, but now he is wrong as the facts have changed unbeknown to Farage.
@@stewie7338 He says it isn't cost effective but smarter people than him believe it is. He just does not have the breadth of knowledge about what is going on in the industry. I expect we will one day see cars with 4 figure ranges, half the price of petrol cars and much higher performance. We will also be able to maintain a degree of energy security by powering Britain by the sun that falls onto it. As Farage should know, buying oil from crazy Middle Eastern countries is much trouble and North Sea reserves are virtually depleted. Farage is a lobbyist for American energy firms that rip us off with overpriced LNG. He is not even patriotic.
Interesting take. Hope you're right. Thing is, in the USA, the Democrats had all of the local campaigning going on whilst Donald Trump totally ignored that side of the election campaign.
sadly he can,, but he offers nothing but ecconomic collapse hunger and poverty, the torries are in effect unelectable, so the turning point is when they out vote the torries, of course he cant form a governmant without the new far right torries he has no organisation, no policies and no people fit for the jobs but a tory coalition thats easily achievable
@ No I have strong views especially on the far left just now,Starmer is pure communist sfar as I’m concerned.The gas’s lighting trying to call anyone who doesn’t agree with them far right because attack is they think the best way to defend themselves.
That's a deep thinking view of Farage and Reform but he is a populist and the fact that most people don't have deep thoughts about politics hence the 4m votes in the last election and the way the two main parties are heading I wouldn't put any money on it.
To you maybe. In England, it's destroying the fabric of society. Our towns and cities are becoming dangerous ghettos with knife crime out of control. The country is becoming the very place these people are supposedly fleeing from as they bring all the problems with them. Maybe Scotland should get the same money per head as in England to help pay the £4500,000,000 bill.
If we have another government he should be. Nobody should ever vote Labour, conservatives or lib Dems. But lib dems would be good enough. Anything to make labour and conservatives reaskise theyre done. But. I personally think an world AI government will be in place by 2029 and why Donald Trump said trust him, after this vote i promise youll never have to vote again I dont think you get just how finished labour and conservatives are Dont vote for any of them again
Reform isnt about Brexit though now is it? regardless of how much of a bee in your bonnet this is. Reform is primarily focused on immigration (a topic i noticed you avoided listing) but according to the "top issues facing the country" on the Yougov site the public place 2nd. Making reform not so irrelevant, even if just the threat of them forces Labour to actually do something about it.
The thing is people think that there are magic wand solutions to this problem. Reform is a hardline Thacherite party, as well as being far right on cultural issues, that means that ironically they wouldn´t have enough money to hire the Border force officers they need to carry out their programme.
@@Commonsense-u1h no the public don't think theres a wand but they do insist that something is begun to stem the tide. they have afterall been telling various governments this for almost 20 years with absolutely sod all happening except distraction and obfuscation.
@@steveday6671 I think the thing is that governments aren´t clear with people why that isn´t happening and I agree that´s a problem. However it´s a problem too that people engage in magical thinking and think you can have a Scandinavian welfare state with low levels of taxation and immigration. That´s what the public wants in opinion polls and that combination isn´t really possible.
I don't think this is the concept Farage has. I think, if he is the figure with momentum on the right, he will think he deserves the Conservative nomination. You think serious people will not see the right wing majority and act stupidly. But they will.
It's my opinion that if Reform UK did come to power they would privatise the NHS under the banner of UKGI 2. Barely half a page in their contract but they promise reform.
sign the petition on the official uk parliament petition page read it carefully to be aware of the facts...by pass the usual suspects by resharing it widely ll over the uk with as many like minded people as you possibly can by only using e mails which cant be censored or suppressed but shh your not supposed to kow that be sure to tell all others
I hope Farage will be the next prime minister but it will be a very long and difficult road. The system is stacked against it. The Liberal Democrats are pointless. The right is split and that is a big problem. Reform is not just a one issue party . The UK desperately needs a solid right wing party just as America needed Trump. Reform will take votes from Labour just as Boris took the working class vote. If coherent practical policies are the requirement for government how do you explain this Labour government.

The middle class is shrinking and poverty on the rise. The dominant right wing media is blaming the weakest and the persecuted minorities for the mistakes and greed and the ever growing riches of a small group who do not even live in the UK. The voting public will never take the time to research as to why they are poor slaves to the system. Angry and fuming with rage makes them so easy to manipulate and they will follow any vile populist conman over the cliff. Never underestimate how desperation and anger can cloud any reasoning.

@@erylevans894 Well put.
@@erylevans894 I totally agree with you.
Yes, but I think the common person is very tired of politics as it has been practiced by all politicians.
The influential people, with lots of money can buy tings like newspapers, companies, and thus have a lot of influence on politicians.
So any political party has to do at least a bit of their bidding.
Unless one would have a majority voting extreme left or right, discarding the capitalist free market economy, which will most likely not be tolerated by other countries (read the USA, liberal EU).
The right wing media IS not blaming the weakest, the minorities for the rapid decline of Britain. It is blaming the Tories and Labour and their immigration policies of the past twenty seven years. It is revealing the left always wish to deflect blame from the Tories onto immigrants. They do this because of course they support Tory policies which have such a detrimental impact upon working class communities.

I don't see Starmer in charge of Labour come the next election let alone winning ( not that it makes much difference who's in charge looking at the possible leader contenders). Likewise Badenoch will probably get the elbow before then, And as for Ed Davey, well he's neither use nor ornament and has as much political clout as the paddle board he pretended to fall off. And that's why Farage can become MP. Johnson won the previous election because of him, Brexit was achieved because of him. Trump was inspired by him. Look at what's happening in Europe and the swing to the right ( Italy, Netherlands , Sweden, Poland, Hungary) Le Penn and the NF in France.. and the rise of AfD in Germany...it can happen and Farage ( especially with the financial backing Reform is now receiving) can definitely do it, remember "Elections aren't won..they're lost"
I think that Starmer will probably stay in charge due to inertia, the one person who could challenge him within Labour, i.e Andy Burnham, unfortunately doesn´t have a seat in parliament ATM.
How can we consider putting someone in charge, when they don’t want to solve the problems?

Nothing is impossible but this one is doubtful. Labour supporters would rather have Conservative PM, and (most, if not all) Conservative voters would rather have a Labour PM, rather than Farage.
I think even if Reform is the biggest single party in terms of the popular vote, the problem is it takes a lot more votes to elect a Reform MP than a Tory or Labour one.

reform
Labour trying to fight REFORM on immigration is pointless as the UK needs immigrants and REFORM can always outdo them.
Whilst I agree with you, I would be interested in your thoughts on the Green party.
By the next election, green will be a dirty word.
Reform has a big problem when it comes to winning elections, namely that rightly or wrongly, it takes a lot more votes to elect a Reform MP than it does to elect a Labour or Tory one.
That´s in part because the Reform vote is very concentrated in certain parts of the country, i.e the rust belt and coastal cities that have seen better days.
So it´s not unrealistic that they will get slightly more votes than the Tories or Labour, but a Farage premiership is unlikely (unless he gets slightly more seats than the Tories and goes into coalition with them, which is unlikely).
I think the easiest way for Farage to become PM, is if Badenoch gets dumped and Farage becomes the leader of the Tory party, though that´s unlikely as he won´t want to abandon the Reform party, he makes quite a lot of money out of it and has absolute control.
Farage is box office, like Trump.
Nigel Farage As the next PM.
Now that’s wishful thinking.
Tories came first in 121 seats and second in 293 seats, which means there are 236 seats where the race isn’t between Tory and Labour. So in that sense, the two party system is already fracturing. The Greens are another party who could pick up a lot of seats.
Greens could pick up lots of votes, but few seats.
@DavidJames-p9f They finished second in 40 seats and they are the official opposition in quite a few council areas including my own.

@ Really? What good has he ever done? What real thought out policies does he have? All he has is populism of the lowest dog whistle blowing kind. The fact that in all the years he was a member of the EU Parliament but rarely if ever attended and never had any constructive ideas , in particular I think of fishing - he attended precisely one meeting (the first) of the EU Parliament Fisheries Committee and never attended again. He admitted that the reason he went to the first meeting was to sign on as a member and that ensured he got paid per session thereafter for the next three years. That’s simply fraud.
As to the UK fisherfolk he sold them down the river with a tissue of lies promising unregulated fishing and selling and untold wealth. The fact is that the f-k-g liar knows that worldwide fishing is governed by two things: first the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) and secondly by international trade rules and trade treaties that almost all include fishing.
The fact that the EU Common Fisheries Policy is based on UNCLOS rules and that Brexit does not mean and could never mean a free for all for UK fisherfolk and that in fact the UK had a very generous quota per species of fish under the EU CFP was never mentioned by Nigel nor was the fact that starting with Thatcher UK fish quotas had been commodified as goods to be sold to the highest bidder and that the majority of UK fishing quotas under UNCLOS rules have been sold on in long term contracts by British fisherfolk themselves.
Farage also neglected to find out the fact that fishing rights and the right to sell your catch are different things entirely and how now out of the EU and with a terrible trade deal - the EU-UK TCA is by deliberate design of hardline Brexiters am appalling trade deal for UK agriculture, fishing, manufacturing etc -
the catch of UK fisherfolk cannot be sold in EU markets and Brits eat relatively little fish.
Farage ruined the UK fishing industry and he now runs away from mentioning it.
When asked in a recent Question Time to list the benefits of cutting and burning all trade links with the largest single market in the world and by far the UK’s premier trade market, Farage had no good answers.
He can only fall back to the trope of ‘we never got a proper Brexit’ which is the standard argument of Reform UK.
Nigel Farage is a charlatan of the worst order.
Plaid Cymru got four seats (just one fewer than Reform)… with 194,811 votes! They know how to concentrate their voter base and work like crazy in the constituencies they hold.

Of course anybody's opinion on this is speculation. We are talking 4 or 5 years hence. My crystal ball is nowhere near that good.
However there are a number of reasons why I say no. Not a chance. And just one I will offer that I think is significant because it is one which will resonate with everyone. Unavoidable.
And that can be articulated as the question "can these people who have never ever delivered anything at all at the national or local level (Parliament/Council) be trusted to deliver what they say, just because they say so?" Labour and the Tories are credible because they have previous. Reform UK have none. Yes they have big gobs, but what have they actually delivered? Erm.... nothing.
There is some rumour of Farage becoming PM as the Tory Leader, but I think that is wet dreaming by some. There are many on the Tory right who dislike him intensely, putting it mildly.
Associating himself so intimately with Trump is a mistake. To promote his image (Farage is image not substance) he chose a poisoned chalice. Much too hot to handle. Out of his league. It will burn him.

You touch upon the issue that is a political crisis in many countries at the moment: a majority of voters are disenfranchised. They do not feel represented by the parties they supported, and do not see another option that suits them. And it isn't just not agreeing with every single policy of a party, but of feeling abandoned politically. This happened in France in The 18th Century, though this is now tragically misunderstood. The Revolution wasn't the result of peasants rising up because they couldn't afford bread, it finally began because The Third Estate, which consisted of people from the very wealthy to the very poor (and is where the term "Third World" is derived for the same reasons) felt entirely disenfranchised and declared The National Assembly with the other 2 estates (through outvoting them) and in direct defiance of Louis XVI. I've often found it interesting how this vital step in The French Revolution is always sidestepped or completely ignored in the teaching of it. I suppose if more people were aware of it, governments would be in far greater peril. After all, The French Revolution, while protracted and far from smooth, was much more successful than The Peasants' Revolution of The 14th Century in England.
Hopefully Farage does become our next prime minister. He his, by a country mile better and more realistic than the other main parties. Just like Trump and good on em.
Oratory alone will not help Farage, he is a divider and incapable of unifying the country. His heckling style incites discontent and exploits it to promote more withdrawal (first from the EU as UKIP and the Brexit ‘party’, now from the ECHR as RefUK) without regard for the consequences of which he is wilfully ignorant. Anybody willing to test his knowledge and understanding will be interrupted, gaslighted, bombasted aggressively to deflect and conceal the fact that he has no solutions other than to leave, abolish and utterly destroy for his own financial benefit.

Have you ever noticed Stamer hardly ever answers a difficult question? He obfuscats the conversation. Farage always answers questions directly and even if we don't share his politics, this gives him a disposition of integrity.

@MissFlight-q8f Well I have indirectly. I'm not sure quite how highly publised Starmer's inability to answer questions is, but most questions on PMQ are pretty loaded from both sides of the house. But yes, politicians evade difficult questions. But when a populist like Farage just offers a simplistic answer to a complex and difficult problem it's just another way of evading a question. In fact it is even worse because it implies that he has all the answers when he hasn't got any.
Heseltine never got there, Johnson did but look at his privilege and what a failure he was and to me Farage is Johnson Mk II but even worse.
However, should Trump be a success doubtful then you never know what Farage might achieve.

It would be so easy to trip him up if some real person was on the other end of a phone-in talking about normal stuff that goes on in the real world. He is a performer with a repertoire. In fact you get this a lot on social media. People have one or two pitches on a subject and go over the same things all the time. Personally it bores me.

We will also be able to maintain a degree of energy security by powering Britain by the sun that falls onto it.

Farage is a lobbyist for American energy firms that rip us off with overpriced LNG. He is not even patriotic.
