Got another video?
I see that video was actually made by the conservative party
:doglol:
I just read that the reform party will order that all Ukrainian flags hanging from government buildings must be taken down. It seems a lot of these bozos are ruzzian shills. Nigel Farage even had a TV show on ruzzia today.
Scum.
They're not Far Right just right.
Unless you've followed The Tories and Labour parties policies and performances over the last couple of decades then you will not understand.
Best stick to slagging of Trump and Russia while juggling Deliveroo Krispy Kreme donuts:smileylaughing:
Everything and anybody that does not worship Marx, that hates self achievers and the responsible, bend over backwards for the poofs and the trans, that delights in the antics of hamas and the eco extremists and refuses to wish a cancerous plague on trump is labelled far right these days.
read some history and learn exactly what far right actually means.
The left and right are much more polarised that during the 20th C. But anybody that could have been classifird and centre or cenre right is now deemed far right, its a real worry and of course all the immigrants will lean to Liebour. We now have no room for any former left or right who could listen debate and accept the opposite opinion, its now just right or wrong politically dependant. Younger Gens are sucking this up without debating and i worry for the future. As a kid my family use to argue across the diner table and it didn't degerante into polarised views.
Is this not far right, tax/Chits?

I mean, to be fair, they're perhaps not all quite as far right as what we saw about 85 years ago in Europe...yet.

they will only allow the union jack to be flown. some town councils, towns with large muslim populations, have taken to displaying the palestinian flag on their town halls as if that will make any difference to the outcome of that conflict. it is a divisive gesture, but then again divisiveness is straight out of allahs playbook.
sectarian politics has no place in the uk.
Here are the councils Reform UK now control:
Derbyshire
Kent
Lancashire
Lincolnshire
Nottinghamshire
Staffordshire
Doncaster
Durham
North Northamptonshire
West Northamptonshire
Other than borders where they provide help showing the line can see no benefit.
Flags and national icons seem prevalent in primitve places like here USA where in addition public buildings people flaunt them .
Same those pretentious hotels with sets of a variety.
In suburban Oz/USA usually indicates morons, in UK reform types who wave St George's (A Turk) flag, don't get me started on KSA with it's bloody sword, murderous regime and intolerant slogan, there is no god but God, and Muhammad is his final messenger. needs simplifying to there is no god.
Perhaps only place suitable is UN or the universally accpeted and rightly guarded Red Cross to help the sick is a BIG PLUS.
Please don't shoot the messenger all you flag wavers our loyalty is better directed to humanity, nature and protecting our shared home this planet.
As many mature folks who witness the serial stupidity of our species greed the more I see of humans the more I like animals!
:frog:
local government should not be making these vapid gestures, virtue signalling by any other name, at the taxpayers expense.
and especially not where the conflict in question has a faith element in it. it can only promote the rise of sectarianism in english politics, something that is certainly not needed.
the nonsense kicking off in kashmir right now will soon be out on british streets. british town councils should restrict their support to british interests only.
Islamist sectarianism is the most frightening force in British politics and will only grow stronger.

The growing tensions between India and Pakistan have prompted repeated warnings that “sectarianism threatens to spill onto the streets of Britain”.
But it’s a bit too late for that. Sectarianism isn’t just rife at the protests in London or even the rhetoric being spouted in the mosques and madrassas of the UK.
It is fast infecting our local councils, Parliament itself and many of our great institutions. So much so, in fact, that a senior Labour source told me recently that its MPs were unlikely to get re-elected in some parts of the country.
“Leicester is lost, as are parts of Birmingham and Bradford,” he conceded. “We won’t get elected in some of these areas again.”
As the focus understandably turned to the rise of Reform, few noticed that the local elections once again witnessed the elevation of a number of Islamist candidates.
In years gone by, they would have stood for Labour, but the growth of Britain’s nearly four million strong Muslim population means they are now able to be elected in their own right – without being tied to a national party.
In Burnley Central East, Maheen Kamran was elected as an independent in the formerly Labour-held ward after campaigning in favour of segregation between the sexes. The pro-Gaza candidate, 18, won 38 per cent of the vote, surpassing Reform UK’s 30 per cent and leaving Labour trailing in third place on 14 per cent.
The victory came after Ms Kamran said she had been motivated to enter politics by the “genocide” taking place in Gaza, and called for the end of “free mixing” between Muslim men and women. Progressive stuff.
In nearby Brierfield and Nelson West, Mohammed Iqbal beat Labour to win his seat as an independent with a 2,396 majority. Formerly the Labour leader of Pendle Council, the 63-year-old was suspended by the party after the Jewish Chronicle revealed that during a debate on flying the Palestinian flag above Nelson Town Hall, he said: “The fact is that what’s going on in Ukraine, Palestine, and other areas I’ve mentioned, reminds me, I barely passed my GCSE history at school, but many people in this room will remember what justification Hitler had for what he did to the Jews in the Second World War.”
Mr Iqbal later insisted: “I wish to publicly state I am not anti-Semitic and have campaigned all my life against all forms of racism and sexism and will continue to do so.”
Another suspended Labour candidate, Azhar Ali, won the neighbouring seat of Nelson East despite being dumped by the party as its parliamentary contender for the Rochdale by-election. He was dropped after apologising “unreservedly” following reports he had told a meeting that Israel “allowed” Hamas’s attack on October 7 in order to get a “green light to do whatever they bloody want”.
Other pro-Palestine politicians to win council seats last week include pro-Gaza Sohail Asghar for the Greens in Accrington West and Oswaldtwistle Central. Just days after the October 7 attacks, Asghar reposted a message on X which read: “Israel = Isis”. He has promoted the posts of people associated with Holocaust denial.
None of this should come as any surprise, not least when Labour’s vote share in highly Muslim-populated areas dropped by 29 percentage points at the last general election, from 65 per cent in 2019 to 36 per cent in 2024.
And still Labour panders to the Islamists. As the Conservative MP Nick Timothy has raised in the House of Commons, Labour pretends not to engage with groups like the European Islamic Centre (EIC) which is associated with the Islamist ideologues Jamaat-e-Islami and Abul A’la al-Maududi. And yet, Jim McMahon, the minister for Local Government and English Devolution, attended an iftar hosted by the EIC during Ramadan. The Government also insists it has a “non-engagement policy” with the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB), and yet Stephen Timms, the minister for Social Security and Disability, attended the MCB’s annual dinner in January.
Some are less subtle. Last November, the Labour MP Tahir Ali called on Sir Keir Starmer to introduce measures to prohibit “desecration of all religious texts and the prophets of Abrahamic religions”. The Prime Minister did not rule it out, instead insisting that we must tackle “Islamophobia in all its forms”.
In February, Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner appointed Dominic Grieve, the former Conservative attorney general, to lead a review into creating a new definition of Islamophobia, despite repeated warnings it could curb free speech. Ever the wetty, Grieve appeared to pre-empt the outcome by saying he hoped the review would “help support positive change in our country”.
And we have Lucy Powell, Leader of the House of Commons, suggesting that anyone who mentions the grooming rape gangs scandal is blowing a “dog whistle”.
Last month, a group of 20 Labour MPs petitioned the prime minister of Pakistan to build a new airport in Mirpur, the ancestral homeland of a majority of Britain’s Pakistani population.
Factor in the regular contributions of the four “pro-Gaza” independent MPs in Parliament and you can’t easily escape sectarianism. Iqbal Mohamed, the MP for Dewsbury and Batley, has spoken out against a ban on first cousin marriage in the Commons, suggesting that “ordinary people see family inter-marriage overall as something that is very positive”.
And this week, Adnan Hussain, the independent MP for Blackburn, criticised free speech because “it means protecting the right to offend Muslims”.
It came after Robert Jenrick, the shadow justice secretary, highlighted the case of Hamit Coskun, 50, who was initially charged with intent to cause distress “against the religious institution of Islam” after allegedly burning a Quran. As Jenrick rightly pointed out, blasphemy was abolished as a common law offence in England and Wales in 2008. The Crown Prosecution Service has now acknowledged the charge was “incorrectly worded” and has amended it.
Even some Tories have been indulging the Islamists in their midst by this week signing a letter demanding that the UK “recognises Palestine” in a move that would only embolden the murderous death cult that is Hamas.
Meanwhile, Indhu Rubasingham, who refused to host the UK Jewish Film Festival when she was head of the Kiln Theatre in Kilburn (then known as the Tricycle) in 2014, has just been appointed to lead the National Theatre, while Minouche Shafik has been picked as the new head of the Victoria and Albert Museum. Baroness Shafik, you may remember, was president of Columbia University in the US during the outbreak of the worst anti-Semitism the campus has seen in recent times, before she resigned last year.
After years of turning a blind eye to sectarianism, it is now everywhere you look.
.... and people wonder why the spread of islam is treated with so much suspicion by ethnic brits in britain, a christian country.
So....how's this reform coming along?

The most recent census, March 2021, asked people about their religion. This was a voluntary question, answered by around 94% of respondents.
Across Great Britain, 46% of people identified as being Christian, 38% said they had no religion, 6% identified as Muslim, and 2% identified as Hindu. Around 2% identified as being Buddhist, Sikh, Jewish or of another religion.
parliament.uk/constituency-data-religion...
For the first time in a census of England and Wales, less than half of the population (46.2%, 27.5 million people) described themselves as “Christian”, a 13.1 percentage point decrease from 59.3% (33.3 million) in 2011; despite this decrease, “Christian” remained the most common response to the religion question.
“No religion” was the second most common response, increasing by 12.0 percentage points to 37.2% (22.2 million) from 25.2% (14.1 million) in 2011.
There were increases in the number of people who described themselves as “Muslim” (3.9 million, 6.5% in 2021, up from 2.7 million, 4.9% in 2011) and “Hindu” (1.0 million, 1.7% in 2021, up from 818,000, 1.5% in 2011).

I was selected as an approved Reform candidate in the May election, but opted to remain Conservative, consequently I was not elected. The Reform candidates were pretty low grade IMO. I'd tried encouraging some of the more able Conservatives to stand as Reform. They all opted to stay as Conservatives and have all lost their seats as a result. This blind party loyalty is misplaced. Most of them support Reform policy on SEN waste, public spending, immigration and DEI nonsense. They feel let down by a Conservative party that has scarcely had a single Conservative policy since 1990. Yet they sat frozen, blindly loyal to a sinking ship. I'd stayed Conservative too, rather than fall out with several district council colleagues. More a social decision than a political calculation. I was actually relieved not to win (I didn't canvas). Although I'd not expected Reform to win so convincingly, I had expected the Conservatives to be in opposition. I got involved in local politics to change and improve things. The idea of being a lone voice in moribund committees for c£20k a year held no appeal whatsoever. Not least of all, it would have meant a substantial loss of income for me from my part time retirement business. The Conservative Party is dead in the water. It has no ideological integrity. All but a couple of my fellow ward Councillors at District level are either there to embellish otherwise lacklustre CVs, vacuum up pitiful allowances (helps pay the mortgage) or to gain some social status at the golf club/ masonic lodge. It's beyond pathetic.
Au contraire they reflect their supporters and can connect to the many who are disatisfied and worried . I Labour flops Ferofm could indeed repace the Tories as the maon contender but with both left amd right only gaining c 40% of the votes forming a regime may require Tory support even if they come 3rd or even 4th behind the Liberals .Election is a long time ot yet so almost anything may happen, recession, wars, plagues and thats just my menagerie.
L+F you metion 20k a year ,I didn't know English councillors were paid or is this expenses for loss of earnings , travel etc?
