To be a leader you have to have at least a bit of charisma , you also need to be able to speak without constantly saying "err" and you need to not keep repeating the same old lines "let me be clear" and you need direction , stammer fails on every level , he's like a compass in a magnet factory. Why could everyone not see how useless he was before they were elected. His departure can't come soon enough, we will have to ride the storm , there should at least be plenty of boats.

He promised change, achieved nothing and is now in big trouble.

BEWARE: just knocking Starmer is a mistake:

1) Labour will replace him with a new, younger face, blaming the old leader for mistakes, just as the old Soviet Union used to, they will restart.

2) We should all be focused on clobbering LABOUR. Attack the BRAND, not the staff.

3) Reform should prepare for government and that means a SHADOW CABINET OF EXPERTS AND COMPETENT PEOPLE! eg. Who is Reform's Energy Spokesman, speaking out against the CO2 scam and COP30 contrick??

Right as always Mrs B, but I think you've been saying this for some time, proving that they're not preparing quickly enough.

If we all keep shouting about this, the message WILL get through to the people at the top of Reform, I believe some pressure is already on.

Michael, Matt Goodwin has found a good way to broadcast with YouTube 'shorts', this one has 8600 'likes' in a few hours. Seems to me you should be doing the same, it's simple, low tech BUT NOTE > Matt is always super-smart, suit and tie, that's very important. https://youtube.com/shorts/zGS0yS6g4v8?si=qrBA1dQJd_a8wUA-

Hoyle should go what is the point of him never makes Liebour answer questions and allows all the heckling and boos when reform MPs speak it has become an absolute joke but they won't be laughing soon. A portrait of himself £70.000 our money Buffoon Lammy £50.000 on a party in July with his cronies. Scandalous, Liebour are corrupt so to all that voted Liebour SHAME

These amazing results for Reform, for significant change, bring feelings of relief and joy but they also bring wariness. The vanquished beast will thrash and fight to survive. We all know what Liebour are capable of, we must be on our mettle and oppose whatever outrage they try; cancelled elections, rushed citizenships for the invaders, more criminal charges for the natives. They should also be on notice that when they finally fall they will be facing criminal charges themselves

If they get rid of Starmer, please don't let it be Rayner or Miliband who takes the lead....either would be worse than Starmer, imho.

Yes Penny, they would be appalling but the paucity of talent in the Government is startling. There really is not a single one of them who could make a go of it.

Sadly you're right Yorkieeye....it's all rather worrying and I wish I had an answer. Roll on 2029 and let's hope we still have a country left to Govern. 🙋
