For many, many years he was massively overrepresented in debates and giving soundbites on the news. Arguably now he has got a larger amount of support he should have more airtime, as it's necessary to actually question him on policies rather than just letting him give soundbites.

And the few times it's happened it's been a disaster.
So. The next question is does bubba refer to Bill Clinton or Ghislaine Maxwells horse.

Which leads on to a follow up question. Would you rather blow a horse but no one finds out about it or would you rather not blow a horse but everyone thinks you have
I would defer the above tasks to Mr T.

Not wanting to go there myself!

Well when the chancellor changes the budget 3 times in a week and makes austerity type hints why would people care? Also Farage dictates the immigration narrative anyway.

I don’t think you have ever lived on a sink estate and are pretty clueless regarding how they are likely to think
It's pretty much always been the same.

Someone comes along with vague soundbites and they interpret it in the way they want to interpret it so they think that person is saying what they think they want to hear. Then they get shocked when it turns out that the reality is entirely different. They THINK they know what they're voting for, but few of them actually pay much attention beyond the headlines and soundbites to realise they don't.

The people on these 'sink estates' would do far worse under a Farage/Reform government.

Trump is likeable, Johnson was likeable, even Farage I can see is likeable. That matters far more to the average voter than their policy platform, and it takes enormous, front and centre scandal/incompetence to shift that impression.

Yep, personality definitely beats policy for those people who aren't engaged with politics.

Feel free to bookmark it and we'll come back to it after a few years of a Reform govt.

It’s nothing to do with that it’s how people think - though actually it’s inconceivable it could be worse.

In the early 80’s I lived for 18 months on what was apparently the most violent and impoverished estate in the UK. It would be really funny seeing you spout your shit to these people.

I lived here



what makes me laugh is people think they could explain how life could get any worse

Course it can
Loss of any hope
No investment
Decrease in life expectancy
To be fair to you and I think what you’re saying no one wants to do anything for this group there’s no votes in it

We have toddlers dying in this day and age because they live in mould infested social housing. It's fucking disgusting.

Yeah unlike you Tarquin not every Daddy has a way to pay for a house with an acre of land

The point of this is these people have no hope and it can’t get any worse - you actually can’t bet this can you?

Can’t bet?
cant believe??
no I can’t I accept it’s their perception of course I do

How could it actually get worse? In their daily lives?
