I’m starting to think that these people aren’t just evil, they are also idiots.
Going into the right door really isn’t that hard.

This reminds me of what happened to Baldrick in Blackadder the Third. You could not make this up.

No accountability. Always failing up. That is what politics has become. Its disgusting.

Hahaha
Reform MPs, despite being single digit in number, managed to vote for the cap to be removed, the cap to be retained and skipped the vote altogether (the latter being the leader, possibly too busy with one of his other jobs).

the ONLY reform policy I have seen is to cancel child benefit in exchange for 5p off a pint of beer. That’s literally the intelligence, empathy and clientele they are hoping to attract. It’s hard to vote on anything if you have absolutely zero integrity or viewpoint on any point.

It’s very funny. What’s disheartening is it feels like we’re long passed a point where a blunder like this will ever embarass any of these people.

‘Accidentally’ voted the same way as the party they’ve just left and to which they will return
These two are the Tory equivalent of Keir Starmer in Corbyn’s cabinet, biding their time

This is hilarious, I can’t stop laughing at this, through absolute stupidity they have managed to do something that they something that they are unused to doing, helping those who are less fortunate than themselves.

When reform started employing bojo’s cabinet of fuckups we were told they were needed to bring experienced MPs into the fold. Looks like thats going well.

Reform has succeeded in holding all possible stances in this vote. They are for it, against it and abstaining. Impressive.

They’re lying, they knew what they were doing, lying is now totally acceptable and goes unchallenged. I’d be keen to know why they were lying.

This is an obvious lie, and the fact that they’re even bothering to tell it is a fine testament to a) what these politicians think of you, the ordinary voter and b) the British media’s role in facilitating their intentions

Anderson doing a great job as chief whip for Reform then? He doesn’t have a huge number of MPs to tell how to vote in line with the party (and he’s not going to be telling Farage and Tice how to vote – Farage wasn’t even there).

I mean given the lot of them lack experience in government I’m concerned about reform getting in again after making a hash of it. It usually takes a while to bed in authoritarianism. Trump has demonstrated that maliciousness comes back tenfold the second time round.
Funny thing is I really wonder really what these Tory rats are offering in order to expedite that.

I don’t know about you, but I don’t think that the people in charge are “The best and brightest”

Bold move to insist that instead of voting for something they believe in they actually just made a mistake doing the most basic thing an MP can do.
Really fills me with confidence that does.

Can’t be too harsh them – they probably heard the vote was to “scrap” something and couldn’t resist it. It’s in their DNA.

>Nigel Farage had no vote recorded, according to Parliament’s voting data,
Let me guess… he wasn’t there doing what he was elected to do.
I bet be wasn’t in Clacton either.

It’s almost impressive how they managed to be both malicious and incompetent in a single vote.
