Collective minds are extremely malleable, and you saw how easily Rachael Maddow & Adam Schiff led the gullible up the garden path for 7 years with their Russia, Russia, Russia nonsense. We should be learning from these sort of things, but people effortlessly move onto the next narrative, while pretending the last one didn't happen.
Well,I’d prefer to stick to my example of malleable minds being led up the garden path by the likes of Farage hinting at something else at work during the Southport instigated rioting, Robinson’s “patriots” rabble rousing at the slightest excuse and stats showing Trump was talking bollox about the millions of murderous illegal immigrants pouring into America in the past four years.

Ever thought it was your lot who are the ones being manipulated?

Of course you’ve got a lot, you yourself have spoken of the critical thinkers and gifted individuals who see things for what they really are and I can’t believe youof all people would ever admit to being wrong by saying you were mistaken about what you’ve posted on here over the past decade or so. Therefore, you still stick to the tick list of subjects you all swear by, as witnessed by your pro Russia thinking here. You’re so convinced you’re the clever ones who see through all of the lies, but, invariably, you all end up parroting the same old lines on the same old subjects day after day and week after week - sounds suspiciously like brain washing to me.
Why do you feel the need to try and belittle posters on here. Bob is one of the longest serving and most respected posters on here but still he can STFU. you need to wind your neck in cos you look stupid with that attitude.
I don't mind Lowe and Tice too much, make some interesting points every now and then. It's the other 3 morons they've got in the commons that worry me.
it appears that reform are on the up in Wales at the moment.

I do think that when the voter is in the booth that the pen will go red especially in Wales, agree they offer very little. One of the big Tory big donors went over to them today and if Musk does start funneling money over to them I can see them being a serious contenders at the next election.
Farage and Reform launched their manifesto for the last election from the old Gurnos club in Merthyr Bob.
In truth it wasn't well attended but someone has pointed out correctly the demographics may suit the Reform party.
I think local journalists quizzed Farage on the chosen location and venue and the large amounts of European funding it had once received via the EU and the benefits of Brexit to the area, where he promptly responded that it was the Tories fault.
Farage is just a paid agitator soon to be puppet isn't he?
Yes, it was the manifesto launch wasn't it, my mistake. Think you've got Farage right there. In the build up to the American election, I heard Democrats dismissing Trump's chances by saying he only had the votes of 40 to 45 per cent - that seemed a very good point to start from for me and he didn't need to do anything spectacular from that foundation to end up President again. On the other hand, Farage seems to be still around the 30 per cent mark at best and, even with today's far more volatile electorate and our voting system it's hard to see him becoming Prime Minister of a Reform Government unless it was in coalition with the Tories after they'd finished ahead of them in an election.
Reform essentially level with Plaid and Labour in the last poll, Tories just behind so essentially a four horse race, although it's only one poll and a long way to go until the 2026 election etc etc etc.
I don't think any party has a particular monopoly on what it offers to anyone or any community and that's certainly the case for the valleys which despite being talked about homogeneously is obviously still a fairly diverse place full of different communities and people.
So Reform definitely don't offer all the answers at all. But I would ask who does? We know what 25 years of Labour in the senedd has done, and we know what the Tories and Labour in Westminster has done. Good and bad in all respects but certainly not a transformation.
We don't really know what Reform or Plaid would do and I can perfectly well understand why people would be curious
