    They lose one inconsequential by-election and immediately pivot to ‘how can we rig it in our favour going forward?’

    It’s all very Trumpian. Not that I’m surprised.

    Can people please wake up now. This guy is Trump 2.0 – he’s a complete danger to our country. Not even in power (let alone opposition) and has his shadow cabinet, now threatening to fuck with our democracy

    In March there’s the rycroft report which will show his involvement with Russian crypto donations – not sure how he’s going to spin that.

    All of his foreign policy is just doing whatever Trump wants

    In the Epstein files, Bannon talks about how he was advising Farage, le pen, AfD and Victor Orban.

    Le pen has a trial in July for Russian donations, AfD just got caught sending Russia state secrets and Orban is just obviously Russian asset.

    How much more evidence do we need that this guy is a traitor? He disrupts our democracy, lies to us and manipulates his voters into becoming increasingly racist so they’ll vote for him

    “under Reform UK’s plans this would be limited to the elderly, disabled, serving armed forces personnel and those working overseas during an election.”

    All of these groups excluding the disabled are more likely to vote for right wing parties.

    Desperate. So so desperate to blame anything over than his Reformation Tory Party and their policies.

    If he was in power and this didn’t work, he’d restrict the vote further. No way can he be trusted with the levers of power. We’d be handing over democracy at the same time

    Interesting that “patriots” always need to diss their own country in order to promote their agenda…

  6. So election day will be made a national holiday to ensure those who cannot make it to the polling booth due to work will be accommodated. Right? Right?!

    Does he have one idea or policy that’s not been copied from the GOP playbook?

    Such a 🔔end. It’s actually embarrassing now. Brits won’t buy into this BS like it’s worked in the states. Remember this twat sold us Brexit. That’s cost every single family ££££ in the UK.

    If we let these monsters into power they won’t give it back when they’ve wrecked all our lives.

    Given that you already have to show your passport (or other ID document) to vote, and there are routine checks to ensure that non UK citizens can’t be entered into the general election register to vote in the first place, I’m curious how he thinks non UK citizens are currently able to vote.

    This kind of cult always follows the same playbook, you can call it the maga playbook these days – I guess it originates with Nazis.

    Isnt it already the case that only British citizens can vote? Having ILR doesn’t give you a vote.

    Nigel. Trumps MARRIED. He doesn’t love you bro pack it up 🥀

    friendly American UK resident here.

    This shit is cancer. Cut it out before it grows.

    Well I’m going to give everyone free lollipops.

    We can all say what we would do if we were a credible political party.

  16. Adorable-Fault-5116 on

    You know it’s sort of mad that politicians even get a say or opinion on how voting works, given that manipulating this is one of their most powerful fulcrums into power. Who gets to vote, how they get to vote, but also how voting it structured (FPTP vs whatever), should all be independent of politicians.

    It’s obviously a who watches the watches problem, but still.

    Why are so many people against limiting voting to citizens? If youre a centrist or leftist you have to knee jerk to everything farage says. Maybe if the mainstream listened to the more reasonable ideas we wouldnt be in this mess.

    For the record, my wife is not a citizen but can vote since shes Canadian. Neither of us think she should be able to but obviously she’ll use her vote since its there. Personally, I think anyone with ILR should be given the vote but you shouldnt get the vote because youre a citizen of a historical empire

    I don’t think I’ve seen a dummy being spat out as hard as this in a while. It looks really amateurish, maybe an easy job in the us but here they just seem to be getting laughed at.

    I am surprised farage hasnt been on twitter demanding a holiday in be burnt down.

    Only British citizens voting is how it should have been anyway???

  20. RaymondBumcheese on

    One of the worst things about right wing populism is that we have to listen to these whining losers cry about how the big boys were mean to them every time they are beaten. 

    You lost, get over it.

    What about people from the EU who have permanently lived here for decades but aren’t citizens. Wouldn’t that be taxation without representation.

  22. SnaggleFish on

    The absolute irony of them complaining about Sectarianism and the coming out with this policy…

    Sectarianism is defined as excessive attachment to a particular sect or group, often leading to prejudice, discrimination, and conflict between different religious or political communities. It typically involves strong divisions and antagonism based on perceived communal identities.

  23. thickwhiteduck on

    Fascists hate people voting and make it as difficult as possible. See also: Trump.

  24. It’s legit funny how every Reform policy is “what’s the latest MAGA dogwhistle?”

    Any positive policies aimed at actually improving people’s lives? No? Oh well.

  25. Grim_Reaper17 on

    He should restrict voting to white men then he might win a majority.

  26. gratefuldave541 on

    Next thing you know he’ll be painting himself orange and shitting his pants.

  27. Every play from the right wing book is coming out now because they lost.

    Cretins.

  28. Pen_dragons_pizza on

    Hold on, so polls are already not limited to British citizens ?

    Surely the baseline requirement is that you are a British citizen to decide what happens in the country

  29. JaggedOuro on

    If their “plans” include excluding all those Russian bots, I would be happy.
