What is it that attracts racists, Islamaphobes, homophobes and general bigots to Nigel Farage?

dickens do you think that Trump and Farage are similar in their ideology?

Nicenanny, Britain has always been Great. The name is, I understand, to differentiate it from Brittany.
No political party can, or ever has, made us less/ more "Great" .There is no need for GB to be made " Great again".

I honestly don't think it's great now, Britain is broken and needs reform that's why I'm voting for The Reform Party our last hope to save our country.

Not sure all the attendees at the rally were even from the UK.
spot the Trump cap......

This election will see almost two out of five voters vote for the so called minor parties, a record, and a sign that for all Starmer will get his beloved landslide, there are millions of voters who are fed up with the two main parties and their negative, back biting behaviour and second rate leaders. I think this should be a wake up call for the two main parties, as well as millions staying at home, that people are fed up with the political system.

Saving it from what?

They share social media platforms like National Pulse, I think the connections are more than superficial. Look at Trump and Farage on the opening page.

I’m impressed with the clarity of your crystal ball predicting the turnout and the result. You must join our election day virtual sweepstake.

Instead of lashing out at everybody whose view is different to yours Nicenanny3, why not articulate why you are voting Reform? More than two sentences of sound bites would be good, as I’ve not seen a thought through, detailed post from you yet?

That’s really unfair. nicenanny3 has not lashed out at anyone. I think she has made her case clearly and has been very polite even when Zakouma called her a “malicious racist.”

I think you are scraping the bottom of the barrel now. Her views might be the complete opposite of yours but you should respect her instead of behaving like a catty 15 year old.

“Right now all men pay for all women: we pay 80% of tax and you take out 80%. The fact you’re able to write on a technological device is all down to us.
“The cultural feminisation of the west is a disaster of epic proportions. We have elevated female characteristics – especially neuroticism, to the highest levels. Hysteria is now common place. The evidence from repeated psychologically testing is that women are appalling at taking criticism.
“Modern feminism belongs in the sewer of self hate from which it came: you say it yourself, you’re all jealous of the perceived freedoms of men.”

But she did. Here are some examples.

‘Only in a bigoted person's eyes.’

‘15:13Merion

Who are you voting for Starmer who doesn't know what a woman is and thinks she/they may have penises 😱 takes all sorts I suppose 🤔’

‘ Perhaps you should watch before making such bigoted claims. He's Reforms biggest donor and he's a multi millionaire.’

That is just on the current page of this thread. It’s not behaving like a 15 year old to call out somebody for responses calling people who disagree with her bigots and making ner ner ner ner ner responses. What are responses like that if they aren’t lashing out?

How utterly ironic! No more division?

Who on earth is this speaking please?

Sounds remarkably like a Tommy Robinson type!

Vote for whomsoever you please, it’s your right, all of our right, May that right please be preserved, however tenuous it might sometimes seem, look and feel, we are still a democracy.

I do not want to return to the era of the Empire thanks, where no one had any rights except white, middle class men and the elite. No thank you!

It’s sad to think intelligent women with much experience of life are being hoodwinked, but I’m afraid you are.

Reform UK are like slightly bonkers, slightly scary, cult leaders!

What are “British Values”

Can someone please explain?

‘Right now all men pay for all women: we pay 80% of tax and you take out 80%. The fact you’re able to write on a technological device is all down to us‘

Actually, Aida Lovelace wrote the first computer programme in the world.
I do wish these extremists would get their facts right and present validated data.

Don't worry Casdon. The Starmer woman/penis trope has been done to death. Under Reform only dicks will be allowed anyway ... and men who fly QAnon flags.

What is British passion? Asking for a friend.

I thought it was a troll when I saw the capitals. I don't like being "shouted" at.

But on reading it, it's a string of empty rhetoric that could have been said by anyone on the right - from the days of Empire. Anytime since the 1930's.

Our Labour candidate is passionate about getting more girls studying computing. She says says it was Gove who stopped that happening when he was education Secretary.

British values are
Democracy
Rule of Law
Individual Liberty
Mutual Respect and tolerance.
Taught in every early years setting.

Nigel Farage IS useful. When he makes statements, it encourages good people to think about what they are perhaps ignoring, and starting a debate about how fatuous or wrong headed his remarks are.
Germany started the slide in to Nazism, by remarks seeming to be reasonable, and by setting average folks against a specific group of people.
