For all their railing against the establishment and statements to us, the British public, that they’d never ally with the useless and corrupt swamp of previously mainstream political parties, it seems that they are telling the people they really care about – the mega rich folk they want to give them vast globs of money – that actually they will do.
Nigel Farage has told donors he expects a deal or merger between his Reform UK party and the Conservatives ahead of the next general election, suggesting he does not believe he can sweep to power alone.
One donor said that Farage had told them he expected to do a deal with the Tories, whether it is a merger or an agreement on co-operation between the two parties, to ease Reform’s route to election victory.
…
Another associate who met with Farage in recent months said that the Reform leader described a pact or merger as inevitable but added it may take some time.
Increasingly often, Reform are in actually not only considering allying with the Conservative party, but literally the same people as the Conservative party was a few years ago. At the present time, twenty previously Conservative MPs have switched allegiances to Reform. This includes a few duplicitous self-interested chancers who previously announced that they would never do such a thing, such as Jonathon Gullis.
Part of Reform’s appeal to some folk comes from their constant rhetoric that they’re something new, something different, something that will smash up the useless parties that have usually been in charge. It’s an appealing thought in many ways for sure.
But it’s also yet another one of their lies; something they’ll say publicly and then do the opposite. In fact Reform is one of the most establishment of the parties out there – a totally unaccountable, friendly only to the very rich who might give them money, anti worker’s rights, anti small business, pro-corruption, anti-democratic and accountability-shrugging private business owned by an exploitative multi millionaire who will sink to almost any depth in order to personally enrich himself and his mega-rich friends, all at your expense.
