I can guarantee that I will not feel safer under a Reform or Reclaim administration- much more scared of angry, shaven headed white blokes than I am of any other demographic in my home city of Birmingham.

Most people in England & Wales are not Christian, and itโ€™s axiomatic to a free society that religious beliefs - or the lack of them - are irrelevant to civic participation. Britain is a pluralist, not a Christian, society; and this is one more reason to fight Reform UK.

Can you imagine the kind of people that would be attracted to working for a US style ICE in this country?

Purely anecdotal- daughter and her friends is indeed a pretty small sample.

Well as an atheist feminist linguist trade union member with an autistic brother I can imagine I'm not going to love living under a Reform 'government'...

Just asked my Gen Z daughter who looked at me somewhat surprised and said no it's the opposite and said I still think you cannot be a feminist and have religious beliefs...

Is it weird that I prefer interacting with near strangers on here to doing so with people I actually know on Meta platforms...(cue nobody seeing or interacting with this post!)

Why the Greens beating Reform is Rachel Reeves'/Angela Rayner's/Diane Abbott's fault... and marks the end for Starmer ๐Ÿ˜‰

Maybe if you guys get out of this hideous situation (overtly corrupt H of S) then lessons will have been learned to avoid the insidious, covert corruption that has always been under the radar in politics...

There are definitely real people who (bewilderingly given what they actually represent) who support them... I don't get it, but then I didn't get why anyone would vote for someone so fundamentally unserious/unsuitable as Johnson either...

At least they want to abolish the Equality Act so it's no longer unlawful for creepy guys to sexually harass women in their workplaces- yay Reform...

It consolidated the Race Relations Act, Sex Discrimination Act & Disability Discrimination Act-as well as other anti-discrimination legislation-presumably a reform government wants disabled people, pregnant women, gay people etc. to be harassed at work and more easily sacked for being themselves...

Johnson, Gove, Hancock, Mone, Zahawi, Paterson, Jenrick- can we start having some proper police interest in things like VIP lane contracts, facilitating tax avoidance/evasion/corruption etc...

@aiannucci.bsky.social Michael Gove? Really... ok - will give it a go but having spent most of the last 20 years working for Education/teachers unions it's not going to be easy...

Not if we co-opt President Floella Benjamin first ๐Ÿ˜‰, then after that we can have President Sarah Green, then maybe President Connie Huq- basically just super smart female BBC children's TV presenters from the 70s, 80s and 90s would work for me...
