But couldn’t that be a sign that the Tories have completely fractured, so many of the hard right Tories went over to Reform?
Yes definitely, but that’s still a problem, I doubt the Tories would be willing to keep failing electorally just because of Reform.
Some of the far-right Tories like Rees-Mogg have said they think they basically need to copy Reform to win back those voters, possibly even absorbing them into the conservative party, and Farage seems very willing to do that.
That makes sense. Considering how I may be on that side of the pond next year if the elections here are going the way they sound like they’re going, I am trying to get as versed as I can in contemporary UK politics, so I appreciate the information.

I’m in the exact same boat, lol. Just been paying attention since the train wreck that was Liz Truss.
The House of Commons has 650 seats. A party winning four is a strong showing?
By the amount of seats it wasn’t very good, still more than most polls thought they would get though.
But by vote share, and the amount of constituencies where they came in second place, the threat is much worse.

I admit I am viewing this as an outsider, but as I’m a dual citizen, I am trying to keep informed.
