Their momentum has come from the Labour drop and I think that's now bottomed out. Starmer will probably last until the May elections then he'll go if there's an obvious replacement (there isn't at the mo in my opinion)
As the Tories recover they'll probably start to take some Reform votes back - I agree with you that Badenoch is growing into her role.
As things get more polerised Reform risk losing votes to the Rupert Lowe part from those who want to go even further right.
The senedd elections of course have Plaid which complicates things further! |

I'm not sure.
It's only one by election but I wouldn't be surprised if the results are around the peak for both Reform and the Greens. Still a long time to go til the GE. |

It all does feel very odd at the moment with the strength of voter opinion on the left and right both edging towards the extremes. |

What makes her a 'cos-play' plumber?
She's qualified and worked (alongside her council work) right through the campaign. |

If muslims want Sharia Law, it seems odd they'd vote for a party led by a gay, Jewish man.
In regard to family voting, fair play to Zack Polanski who came straight out and said that any issues should be investigated - quite refeshing really.
This result is probably the worst outcome for Labour. |

The police have done a great job here. They should be lauded đź‘Ź. |

Doesn’t really matter about colour. Ratcliffe lumped together all immigrants. Which makes his comments racist.
As you know I post a lot on the non football board on here, and I’m pretty sure I’ve never called another poster racist. I don’t use that work lightly.
However, Jim Ratcliffe’s comments were racist |

I’ve no reason to think he’s fibbing.
All it’s quite like that the hospital is staffed by immigrants.
I don’t know though as I’ve not got first hand experience. |

Then he should have said that instead of lumping all immigrant together. Which is racist. |

Because if you went past the hospital the doctors, nurses and auxiliary staff would be immigrants? |

Yep. You can call the e two people who disagree with you idiots and then all the others can agrees with each other.
Perfect. |

There will always be causes that feel closer to home than others.
If you take Mangos point, that you can’t have an opinion about one conflict unless you include an about every single other conflict, sounds like classic cancel culture to me. |

Maybe on here. But it’s become a bit of an echo chamber and really reflective of the real world.
That’s fine. Everyone can carry on agreeing with each other and I’ll chip in every now and then. |

I don’t watch a lot of live tv.
But today I had Radio 5 on in the car on the way to work, quickly caught up on the Winter Olympics during lunch, off to the gym now where I’ll listen to the Elis and John podcast on BBC sounds, then tonight I’ve got the last episode of the BBC adaptation of Lord of the Flies.
That’s a pretty typical Friday so the beeb is pretty good value for me. |

It's the hyperbole.
You could swear that Ratcliffe has been cancelled and isn't allowed an opinion.What's actually happened to him? Nothing.
AJ's post (as usual) has weight and provides a sensible perspective. We can argue over whether it's racisim (it is in my opinion and I'd like to point out that I very rarely use that word) or culturism (which I get there is also an argument for) but I don't think it's in doubt that he misspoke at best.
It amazing how so many people who are not alowed to have an opinion are constantly giving their opinion.
There isn't half some snowflakery around.
Good to see you back by the way. It was starting to get a bit of an echo chamber for me. |

A common theme on this thread is that everyone should be allowed to have an opinion.
Apart from me. |
