Neigel Farage is a back bencher who will need to be called upon by the Speaker in order to ask Kier Starmer any questions. How often does anyone think that Farage will show up at Parliament to sit on the back benches in the hopes that he is called on to ask one question from time-to-time? Bottom line, Reform UK is not leading the opposition and will not be holding Labour to account.

Leadership elections don't automatically have to cause damaging in fighting. It's just that the Tories have forgotten how to do any campaigning which doesn't involve attacking their rivals. Best I can guess is it's going to end up being Badenoch or Tugendhat. Don't see any of the right wing MPs beating Badenoch given how much more competent she has been than them, and Tugendhat could get the support purely by being a centrist if they are wise enough to remember that you only ever win elections from the centre in the UK. Probably the biggest thing in each of their favour is I don't think either have particularly been in any scandals - a rare thing for a Tory MP nowadays.

Ahhh... History repeating itself is glorious! What's happening to the Conservatives is shockingly similar to what happened to the Liberal Democrats (Then just the Liberals) back in the early 20th century when the party ate itself alive. Labor wasn't always the other biggest party in U.K politics, it was actually the Liberals, but they started fighting amongst themselves over new liberalism or old Gladstonian liberalism as the direction for the party, with the new liberals eventually just defecting to labor, the last liberal government ended in 1915 and they've never really recovered. Here's hoping the Tories DON'T learn from the lessons of the past.

@@SiVlog1989 Basically if the two parties shift to far to the left or right, they get thrashed at elections. That's why if the Tories want to be re-elected, they need a moderate candidate.

Really don't understand why you needed to mention Reform at the beginning of this and not the Lib Dems or Greens. I know its only a small thing but this kind of subtle bias really adds up
@patriarch7237 17 күн бұрын
Given the focus is on the Conservatives and their lurch further right in recent years, I am sure they are more worried about Reform eating their lunch than they are about what the Lib Dems are doing. And I don't imagine the Conservatives lost a single vote to the Greens, there is just no overlap between their voters.

Strategically, a party to the right of the Conservatives presents more problems. Without Reform, the Tories can compete for the centre ground without needing to worry too much about the right wing of the party (other than trying to get them to turn out on election day). With Reform, it becomes extremally difficult to craft policies that appeal to all potential Tory voters. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that the Conservatives can't get back into government while Reform exists as a significant minor party.

Since John Major the Conservative Parliamentary MP's have become more liberal and vacated small "c" conservatism leaving the vacuum to be filled by ReformUK. Party has to decide does it want to become LibDem2.0 or do a 180°, start being socially conservative again and challenge ReformUK.

They, and reform, are not conservatives. They're right wing radicals - trying to do things like leave the ECHR is totally at odds with conservative values. Contrary to Reform UK belief, conservative does not just mean bigoted.

Depends which direction the Conservative MP's go, if it carries on it's liberal path then probably up to a third could look to ReformUK who have taken up the small "c" conservatism space the Conservative Party parliamentary MP's have left behind. Probably as telling is how many Conservative Party Members look towards ReformUK.
