I’m perpetually confused by the Eurotrash definitions of political parties. How is this “conservative”? What is conservative about more government and entitlement and taxes? What they describe as “left wing” and “right wing “ is inconsistent with most peoples understanding. I think they just use these words to confuse and obfuscate their plans and do whatever the hell they want—-much like our own system of governance. It’s just so frustrating the whole damned mess. Vote them all out! And Farage “won” but has already conceded he won’t be in leadership because he’s so “controversial”. Like, what? Stupid.
I think what they mean by left is just shy of communism and what they call right more socialist than anything. Anything truly conservative they call fascist or extreme right. But I live in the free state of Florida, so what do I know?
Oh, there is NO WAY they would allow Farage anywhere near a leadership position. The Reform Party, despite winning a larger percentage of total votes then Sinn Fein, won 5 fewer seats than SF. Exit polling showed a potential pick up of 13 seats for Reform but at the end of the day, only secured 4 seats. The Tories (i.e. "conservatives") lost a total of 251 seats in a year which saw the lowest turnout in 20 years, I think. The Substacker, Morgoth, does a great job covering the political and cultural scene in Britain:
They are both the same (just like the U.S.). Geez, 5 yrs of Labour is going to be distastrous for the UK. More unlimited immigration, more taxpayers paying for "refugees" to be on the dole w/ 5 bedroom houses for 4 wives/ 1 husband (who doesn't work), more wind mills/solar panels, more SMART "heating scams", more deindustrialation, sending jobs abroad...etc

This is going to be bad.
