Stupid Person joins a party that panders to stupid people. More at 6
Is that the dumb bitch tanked the economy, makes false cries about free speech and then sues anyone who calls out how much of a dumb cunt she was? Get the lettuce.
I think reform will be in downing street over the next ten years but hiring Truss could kill them. She’s defies bipartisanism due to her outstanding incompetence.
We need a fucking true DOGE here and get these vermin sacked. That’s across the political spectrum here, Truss has shown nothing in the way of competence or ability, a neoliberal middle manager if there ever was one.
That’s a lot of waffle for just one paragraph.
> They’ve even had talks with Liz Truss about how to take on “the [Establishment] blob” — with the former PM dishing out advice on how to radically overhaul the state. It shows just how seriously Farage is treating the idea of actually gaining power.
That sounds a little Trumpy? While there’s a faintly alarming chance Nigel could just about pull something off here, Liz… you are not that guy. If you’re involved in the planning, I’m more reassured than worried.
Grifters stick together. I’m sure they’ll make lots of money with their “Fear Of the Other ^(TM)”.
They were both at CPAC rubbing shoulders with billionaires and Nazis, so there’s a lot of money to be made.
Edit: we’re to were.
I spent a lot of my life watching England fail quite miserably at Test Match cricket. A regular question I got from 2015 to 2020 from normies was that if the team were regularly scoring higher in 50 over games than they were in test innings, why didn’t they just play the same 50 over approach in the test matches? The boring people who knew about cricket would then look, scornfully, and give some patronising spiel about how that would never work. Then Bazball happened, and it turned out it was a viable strategy that delivered better results for a couple of years.
I say this because, for decades, the really simple and obvious strategy for how to beat Welsh Labour has been to relentlessly and unapologetically focus on the Valleys. That is their political soft underbelly, there are plenty of people there disaffected with Cardiff Bay, and open to a new alternative. When Leanne Wood tried, she started to see some positive results.
Instead, there have been multiple wasted decades where Plaid, Conservative and Lib Dem candidates have been relentlessly fighting over a minority of rural seats, arguing that Welsh Labour have been unfair to them, without realising that they were, inadvertently, telling people in the Valleys that if they got into power, they’d redirect resources from their bits of South Wales to the rural communities in West Wales (Plaid), Powys (Lib Dem) or North Wales (Tory) that the other parties monopolised.
What Reform are proving in South Wales at the moment is that every other party has utterly failed Wales. That it was always possible to take Welsh Labour on there, all they needed to do was actually try.
Every other politician in Wales should be ashamed that Reform are polling on par with Plaid and Welsh Labour. Their cowardice and incompetence are to blame.
If Reform win, there should be a proper political clear out of all of the major parties in Wales so that some people with basic ambition come in and start actually trying.
So the idea is to get someone who didn’t last longer than rotting vegetables in government to be in your party. i say go for it.
Yeah, that’s the legitimacy Reform needs. A hyper-paranoid utterly failure of a pirician who blames everyone but themselves.
Actually I was being sarcastic, but thats quite on-brand for them.
Yes, Liz Truss, that famous Welsh nationalist and supporter of Wales, the People of Wales, Welsh culture, Welsh Language, Devolution etc………
The question you need to be asking, is why all of a sudden these people are showing such an interest in Wales…..or more specifically getting power in Wales…
I would think that any party that opens their arms to liz truss is on to a massive looser. I mean… have people forgotten or something. Ignoring the fact she seems to be mentally ill.
if you really think reform and farage are going to help the less well off in this country you really need to give your head a shake. trump ran on similar policies and look at where america is at right now 3 months into his term in office. the poor are getting screwed the rich are being put in positions of power and influencing policy that mean they consolidate their power and wealth. the rich are not going to give up their wealth to help the workers in this country. farage isn’t going to lead us into a bright future … quite the opposite. he barely even does the job he’s elected to do now. imagine him running the country he’ll be off kissing trumps arse trying and making himself rich he’ll screw the 99% and enrich the 1%.
don’t fall for it and his mealy mouthed words. we’ll all be worse of if he ever has any say in running this country
