You're absolutely right. The Tories failed, Labour is failing (and those lying toads promised that their plans were "fully costed").

A wise Reform leader would be lining up the ducks right now, costing the plans in conjunction with industry and finance leaders so that well in advance of the GE, they will know where to borrow from to kick start it all.

Labour is chasing a moderate free-market Thatcher voter from the early 2000s, which doesn't exist, and the Tories are chasing a British Trump voter, which doesn't exist.

Do either of them know who their voters are?

Good point. The British voter is fickle and will vote emotionally. Brexit was an example, and chucking out the Tories was another.

Therefore, at this point, Reform cannot be ruled out. Imo.
