What he said. Only in CAPITALS.
Any party that can put forward a viable and trustworthy plan that covers these four points should get all our votes. Unfortunately, there isnât one as yet. Hint to Ben Habib, Rupert Lowe and Sarah Pochin who will probably be joining you shortly.

Perhaps, Sarah will become the second MP to join Rupertâs new party.

Honestly, this language by politicians is so frustrating.
Tice just persists on vague wording without a stance that sounds firm. Constant backstepping unless it is an agreed party stance like banning the burqa.
Of course, part of this video is a back and forth about the ban of burqas but the other earlier part has him pitter patter around the 2-child benefit cap and uses the loose wording of âBritish bornâ, which between us, should mean English/Welsh/Scottish/Irish, but we KNOW that people have been wearing our British title as their skin suit whenever they have seen fit to before turning around and saying âoh yeah nah, I wouldnât call myself Britishâ despite claiming our hard earned tax money as their lovely pillow whilst they try to outbreed us.
Ben Habib & Rupert Lowe, please hurry up and get that party ready, we need to wake up the Reform partyâŠ
I hope beyond hope that we will have a viable party that we can all coalesce behind before 2029 GE.
It seems to me there is immense brain power, grass roots media, determination and effort waiting to be unleashed.

I have always been a great believer in the notion that the strength and democracy of a political party lies in the actions of its local associations or branches. This has been ignored by the Conservatives and Reform who consider the locals as nothing more than useful idiots.
If Ben Habib wants to form a truly democratic party then he could do worse than to start by getting local groups into action. They, by their very nature, will form county, regional and national groups. They will raise awareness and funds needed for the national campaign.
However, I suspect that like all the other parties, the silence from Ben is because he is busy building the party from the top down. And we will be presented with banks of ready-formed national, regional and county managers co-opted from the usual suspects. They will, as usual, have been chosen not elected and will be as useless as those of Reform.

Aaaaannnddd the new Reform chair has said, âImmigration is the lifeblood of this countryâ, it looks like. Yet more proof that Reform and Nigel are not the solution but part of the problem.

I presume he is tacking Reform to the centre, as there is no [current âRight wingâ] Party to the right of Reform. Straight out of Cameronâs playbook. Grab Liberal and Labour centrist voters and hold the right as there is no alternative for them. Rupert and Ben could pressure/force Reform back to the right by creating a credible threat. If they donât tack back, then I suspect large numbers of Reform members would consider defecting to a new Rupert/Ben Party.

We can only hope so.

Except that Cameron was actually a centrist, and the Reform top brass seems to be too. When someone tells you who they are, believe them.

Yes, that appears to be the case. He is securing the small c conservative vote then adopting centrist policies thinking there is no opposition to his right to bleed support. If he is doing this, and that is what it looks like, it is essential another right wing party presents itself as a credible rival to bleed off the duped Reformers who think they are electing one of their own, but are just voting to keep the Uniparty in power. The Reform base membership and their misdirected energy needs to be rescued.
