Ben Habib is launching a new political party ‘Integrity’ in 2 months.

Integrity?😁 You can just imagine down the line, when MP’s from it are hauled up before the beak for various transgressions what the papers will make of that name.

What is the Uni-party?

Are there enough MP's with integrity to form a party?

Had to look up "uni party"

"Uniparty is used as a term to suggest that ostensibly separate political parties actually function as a single party"

You mean Reform and "Integrity"?

(genuine puzzle here)

On the face of it it looks like what sometimes happens at far left or far right groups, the tendency to fall out easily? (when I was involved in student politics way back, there were at least 4 very"lefty" groups up for election)

I think if it would split the Reform vote that would be a good thing. Maybe then Starmers Labour Party could stop being so afraid of losing votes to Reform

Was this not a 'team name' on The Apprentice

Is Rupert Lowe involved? (I cant find much information on this new Party except on the likes of X)
Is it for real or a Ben Habib stunt?

I think so.

Perhaps this will be as useless!

It is registered on the Government website, and it has a website of its own.

Presumably there will be a launch?

It is an existing party he's taken over. He says he might rename it.

I see. I think it would be sensible for them to rename the party, because no party could live up to that name.

OP

I thought you like Starmer?!

The two couldn’t be further apart😄

The Ben Habib who thinks Trump is a good bet and that Tommy Robinson is a political prisoner.

I’m a pragmatist Whitewave so I’ve (re)hitched my wagon to Labour with Starmer. That does not preclude me from admiring Ben Habib and his aspirations. (Diverging from the EU being one). But I’m accepting of the fact that Starmer wants closer ties and alignments with Brussels. That goes against the (my) grain but one has to take what’s on offer in the round.

Had to look up "uni party"

That really surprised me Wyllow. 🤔

Really? It sounds like something students go to on Saturday nights.

Life is full of surprises 🙂

(I still don't get it)

I looked up this Party's "Manifesto". talk about a repetitive word salad

www.integrityparty.co.uk/manifesto

Well we are now all aware it’s up and coming! I’d never heard of the proposal until today. Had you?

I think he's maybe inherited that, as the website is 2024 and he's just taken it over. He's been caught on the hop it seems as he wasn't going to announce it for a couple of months. He's not sure he'll keep the name. He is getting members and donations though.

Does anybody know who ran the Integrity Party before, and if they are part of the future plans?
