Chi sostiene la riforma e perché? Le classifiche che mostrano chi è a favore del partito di Farage

Hugely skewed towards no degree. Also not earning large amounts, mostly.

And yet if Reform wins it’s likely to benefit the well off.

Where have I seen this before.

The insane? The delusional? Those utterly tired of the same old shite?

It is truly a mystery!

“One of the biggest tensions is between the working right, who generally are found in poorer towns and in northern constituencies, and hardline conservatives found in wealthier southern seats.”

This is exactly the same split the tories had during the brexit negotiations. The two different voting bases will get behind one key issue like brexit and then completely fall apart once something else becomes the main focus. It’s not possible to keep both happy long-term 

> Working right

> 26% of people who intend to vote Reform

> Economically insecure and angry, these older working-age voters mix pro-worker attitudes with hostility towards immigration. 

Considering Reform voted against the employment rights bill at every possible stage they could, I imagine the hostility towards immigration is outweighing their “pro-workers attitude”.

I just want Boris Wave Gone, Ukraininas, Hong Kong etc can stay. We cant take more 3rd worlders in its just not fair.
I am not a povo or dim i guess Gaurdian call me Squeezed stewards

The same people who voted for trump, people fed up with their government and feel alienated by their policies and actions, it shouldn’t spur them to go for outright nationalism and extreme rhetoric but when youre fed up with something, anything that grants you some reprieve is desirable. The same way the German workers party won their election, when people are fed up they need someone to blame and a certain painter came to the podium and said “youre in this mess for a reason, ill fix it, and here’s who you shall blame”. The complexities of politics are misunderstood by many and politicians use this to their advantage to virtue signal to their target demographic whilst sneaking in their own agenda and can easily turn a country extremist if they get them angry enough.

Isn’t it interesting how none of these sensational media sites like gb news verify that how they perceive an event is true? No they outright make “factual statements” a Scottish girl was arrested and my first thought wasnt “theyre persecuting the natives and rewarding the illegals” it was “how true is that narrative? What actually happened?” Yeah this girl was out in public with 2 dangerous weapons.. the man tried to point it out to authorities because knife crime is quite common amongst teens.. even preteens, he started to record her for evidence and they took that and twisted it to mean “aye there she goes young lass! Queen boudicca ressurected! Fights for her homeland she does!, shes a brave warrior she is!” If it were a british man calling her out and saying “show me the knife” this would be completely differing but instead of course the immigrant is a pedophile stalking this poor innocent girl

Nuance and critical thought are extinct it seems

I have a general feeling that the left as a whole can’t engage with the actual viewpoints of a reasonably large section of the voting population and so choose to just sort of ignore it.

In a basic sense, voters in lower immigration areas are likely to vote against immigration because they don’t want it – they prefer Norfolk to Luton and they feel that the best way to stop that kind of change is to prevent it getting a foothold.

They don’t want Selby (97% white) to turn into Newham (30%).

I think that to the left it’s kind of just – why would you care if your neighbourhood is white or not, why would you care if your neighbour shares your cultural values.

It’s baffling. I think they just see it as being dirty racism and can’t move past that. So they feel like it must just be some sort of uneducated thing to “train” people out of, rather than a valid viewpoint to engage with and come up with a reasonable compromise on.

edit: Someone responded to this but the comment was deleted, my response would be along the lines of – there is a distinction between having a few neighbours who are different, and “suddenly” finding yourself the minority ethnic group in your own country. There is predictive power in this, anyone who travels enough and actually speaks to locals will realise that people of different nationalities are socialised differently and are different. Race is, granted, not the best proxy for this, but it’s all we have because people aren’t walking around with their flag and schooling on their forehead.

Am I missing something, how are 10% of Reform’s ‘contrarian youth’ cohort aged 55+, hell the 35% aged 35-54 seems to be stretching ‘youth’ as a descriptor.

A lot on the left love to scream that Reform are just about immigration, but if people actually look at Reforms other policies on their site, they will see that out of all the other parties, they have the most policies nailed down, along with the Green party. For too long now people have had a two party option and nothing has really changed. People have been ignored time and time again, and lied to, so while Reform may well bring some things people won’t agree with, a lot of people are starting to say, ‘Well could they really be any worse than what we have had for the past 20 or 30 years.’

I’ve seen a very liberal left sided friend go from Corbyn’s Labour to saying he will vote reform. Don’t know if he’s serious or not but he has changed a lot of his recent views. I could never vote for a foreign funded party like them, but then I’m against most of the current political set up which is put in place to divide and conquer.

I support them.

It’s hard to support them as they’re far from perfect, I support them as a pressure vote to the big two. Hopefully it will wake them up.

My hometown was 85% white just 20 years ago, now it is 35% white and declining. I grew up in a class room that was probably 70% white and it was a nice mix of cultures and I have many none white friends.

My nephew goes to a school that has 4 white children in a class of 26. Immigration has gone too far for me. It’s also the class of people that have come here, it used to be a working class area but people worked. Now, it seems like nobody works.

We should put retirement age up to 75 now. But there’s not enough jobs anyway because the likes of Bezos needed to destroy all the small businesses and automate everything out of existence so he could zoom zoom into space.

Literally all labour has to do is get a grip of (illegal) immigration and that’ll be enough for Reform not to win
