Make Britain Great Again

[vetran]

I love the that idea the average British public are centrist (leftist in your case). They actually don't want excessive immigration i.e. subsidising international companies by slashing wages using cheap imported labour, queues for doctors, homes and other services. People aggressively protesting for terrorist organisations our souping old masters.

Most don't want the practices they escaped established here.

Even recent migrants want to stop the flow.

We don't want the water companies pouring tulip into our rivers the power companies running the grid till it fails etc.

Its not bad to want a better world and keeping Britain as a beacon of civility is a reasonable aim.

People can't get through to HMRC as it is. So how do you think more technology will help?

Thats why AI would do a better Job, HMRC and 80% of all the other Civil servants are worse than useless.


On a seperate note Farage got mikshake thrown at him, but it looks like most missed the target:

But the 52%ers would be offended if we did that.

Better than the Eurozone imitating the Rwanda plan?

You are ignoring the problems people have with accessing and using technology.

Did you not see the open ai videos from last month, in just a few years time Scarlett Johansson will be answering everyones tax questions straight from a smart phone.

And while we wait who will answer the phones?

(And tell ministers the holes in their statutory instruments meaning their policies cannot be implemented?)

From the Reform Website:


Abolish IR35 Rules to Support Sole Traders.
Britain's self-employed often work longer hours and take more risks. Many have no pension and receive no sick pay.

Reduce the main Corporation Tax Rate from 25% to 20%, then to 15% from year 5.

The Tories had "Abolish IR 35" in their 2010 manifesto. Loads of thickos on this site fell for the scam and voted Tory only to find it wasn't abolished. Reform can promise anything because they will not be in government however, listening to Farage is like believing a back street car salesman who sold you a useless wreck first time around and you willing to buy another one from him again.

The history of UK gov'ts gives you a pretty reasonable idea of what is electable . Reform is not electable with FPP, which requires geographic concentrations of supporters, and, worse, if it were electable, you'd be very disappointed because they're offering a particular brand of clowncar right that isn't willing to engage with consequences. There's a reason that the Lib Dumbs will end up with around 60x more MPs than Reform. I would welcome a professional right-wing party to provide more choice. Reform obviously isn't that thing.

Betfair: Nigel Farage is odds-on favourite to win Clacton seat

https://betting.betfair.com/politics...30624-205.html


Its going to happen, he is going to finally become an MP, wtf wants to vote for the Tories this year except to keep Labour out. But that wont be an issue in Clacton if enough people see that he has a good chance of coming first.


Plus Sunak and Starmer lack Charisma, not something you can say about Farage at all.

So the media is going to give Farage wall to wall headline coverage over the next month for sure. The other two leaders are just too boring. Last time Boris had enough media Charisma to take the limelight from Farage had he stood, but this time neither of the leaders do.
