      Let me understand this. You hate Farage yet you have hope in him. The electoral, honours and Lords systems certainly need reform. The Tories are corrupt and self-serving whose only interest are the party and business. Brexit and Teeside.

          Brexit was done with lies and misinformation and you praise it like it was the masterclass of politics, I suppose it’s not entirely untrue, but it isn’t a happy thing for most

      I think people don’t like your suggestion/implication of Farage being the one pushing through reforms more than liking Tories.

          You’re right, but I think the idea of Farage being in charge of pushing through any sorts of ideas (even if it’s reforms that are good) is making people uncomfortable, which is what could be read from your first comment.

          Don’t you remember the last GE? Farage’s party stepped down in many Tory seats, and stayed in many strong labour seats.

          They were splitting Labour’s vote, not the Conservative vote.

      Edit: Guess people like the Tories or they don’t understand FPTP voting.

      Nope, just your comments about immigration.

        It’s so rarely the people in the cities who actually live and work with immigrants every day who don’t want them. It’s the small village people who suddenly have 1 brown person they don’t know how to interact with.
