| REFORM 18:55 - Jan 28 with 1677 views | johnlangy | I had a very brief read today on the history of the Reform party. One particular line stood out for me. It said ‘as of 2025, Reform UK is capitalizing on public disillusionment with the political elite’. A couple of days ago the odious Suella Braverman defected to Reform from the Conservative party joining Robert Jenrick, Danny Kruger, Andrew Rosindell and Lee Anderson. Also other very prominent Conservatives like Nadhim Zahawi, Nadine Dorries and David Jones. There are many others. One of the problems Reform has that Farage concedes often is the party’s lack of politically experienced people. So let’s imagine for a second that Reform was to win the next General Election. Nigel Farage would be Prime Minister and he would have to decide who should be in his cabinet. He would look for experience and logically all the above could/would end up as ministers in that government along with many of the other defectors I couldn’t be bothered to list. Here’s the quote again ‘as of 2025, Reform UK is capitalizing on public disillusionment with the political elite’. So the answer to that disillusionment would be to create a government including a huge number of the Conservatives that largely created the disillusionment and that also at the same time almost fatally damaged just about every pillar of society that we depend on. To put it another way, a government of the Conservative ‘political elite’. We’d be essentially back to square one with a Conservative government in all but name. Can anyone really want that bunch of shysters governing the country ? |  | | |  |

The ex Tory ministers and probably a few of the other ex Tories I haven't named who would probably end up in a Farage government. |  | |  |

In the forthcoming by-election it will be interesting to see whether socially-conservative Muslims afraid of Reform vote in sufficient numbers for woke craziness and swing things for the Greens. |  | |  |
