I was gonna ask “so a majority of brits haven’t learned anything from brexit?!” But we live in the absolute goofiest timeline so ofcourse they haven’t.

nobody cares until 2029 and even then, past the post system could deliver a total different result. the real reasons these “polls” are made in high numbers now are because there is a “brexit malaise” in the UK and some right wingers billionaires do not like the current proEU approach, so they keep delivering these nonstop polls to screw a more balances proEU approach:))

yeah i gave up with the EU and politics. Nothing is being done with election interference and it seems most people are just dumb as rocks. Dark times ahead

Yes this is worrying, and it’s one of the reasons I don’t think we should be talking about ‘rejoining’ the EU at this point (although I would like to see it happen sooner or later). We need to tackle the rise of the right first, and this means a focus on improving the cost of living, and dealing with the perceived immigration problems that the far right feed on. If Labour can solve those, then we should be ok…
Also, polls like this don’t really tell the whole picture in UK politics. Reform had 19% of the vote in the General Election, but only picked up 3 seats because of how spread out their support is. So while this looks bad, if the same trend is true this would potentially translate into fewer than 100 seats, and would not net them the government.

What’s happening in the UK. One day you learn that they regret Brexit and the day after the leading politician is Farage?
What’s the logic!?
I guess it’s about a more polar society where Farage supporters and brexiters are a big minority enough to lead, whereas tories, libdems and labours are all against brexit
Interesting the story of tories. What’s up with Boris Johnson?

Letting 1 million people into a country in 1 year tends to be a bit controversial

People need to chill. The next election is over 4 years away, and I’m willing to bet Farage won’t be PM afterwards.

The media is helping all these alt-right parties by constantly making articles and headlines about them. If they stopped reporting so much on them and stopped inviting them to question time type events they wouldn’t have such a scarily rapid rise in the publics psyche!

They won’t win the election but they’re going to steal a lot of labour votes in the next election. A lot of working class labour votes would rather vote reform than the tories if the current government doesn’t improve their areas.

Other countries with proportional representation are most often forced to make a coalition government which makes it much more difficult to make dramatic changes. That is both good and bad.

We have to face that our Western societies are broken and that much of the working class and parts of the middle class are completely alienated by the way our political and political systems are working. The fear and anger is then very easily channeled by demagogues.
It doesn’t help calling people who vote for Farage, Le Pen, AfD… idiots. They are, but they are also angry and frightened for legitimate reasons. We have to stop making politics that in the end only favour the rich and parts of an academic upper middle-class. Otherwise we will end up like the US where politics will only favour the Billionaires and they start directly ruling us.

A poll by a sitting Tory MP’s company on behalf of The Times, an extraordinarily Tory paper.
In other news, “poll among racists returns positive for own kind, negative for all else”.
It’s almost as if control of the flow of information gives you a political advantage? Who knew.
Obviously what we need is more explicitly right wing media to tell us what to think.

So according to the last few posts – majority UKers want to go back to EU, but also Farange leads in polls.

I live in a country full of brain dead Brits, suffering a lack of memory. I am surrounded by useless Brits who happily suck on Farage’s cocks and balls, hoping for a miracle cure for the UK, after months and years of salivating over the arses of the rancid fucked up labour and tories c@@ts. Yep UK/Brits are cloning themselves into the most famous group of c@@ts ‘Americans’. Just like a fly that is always attracted excrement…..

If there’s one thing that the last decade has shown it’s that humans are far more stupid than we realised. All it takes is a bit of social media razzmatazz and they’ll happily vote for anything —literally anything!
And with the British utterly bonkers totally non proportional electoral system, 25% could be an absolute majority by a huge landslide, depending on the particular configuration of constituencies.
Several major countries just look like they’re now lost forever to the chaos social media and won’t ever reform their electoral systems.
Musk will back this, everyone will hand wring and do nothing about it, and in a few years the UK will just a subsidiary of X.
