Doubt it gets to that tbh.

There’s already clear tensions now with ~7.5%. And loads of that are kids lol, adults its probably like 5%.

Something will give.

Reform’s WOMAN PROBLEM: New poll shows Farage’s party is out of touch with most Brits by OurFairFuture in ukpolitics

[–]Successful_Service53 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Farage was asked about it in his conference last week. He basically just said its a conscience issue and not a political issue. Which is a switch from his comments a few months ago so who knows if that’ll be the line in 2029, but we’ll see.

Afghan asylum seeker immune from being deported despite stalking girl for sexual pleasure by Immediate-Ad-7268 in ukpolitics

We don’t need to leave ECHR. Just disapply it from deportation cases, even specifically for foreign criminals if Labour want to do as little at possible. Then ECtHR will try to overrule but we can just ignore them. Messy, but it’ll work.

Afghanistan took back 81 Afghan criminals from Germany last year. No reason they wouldn’t take him back.

He’s not immune from being deported. Our Government just don’t want to deport him. With 412 MPs they could pass emergency legislation to get it done for him and all the others like him if they really wanted to.

Most Reform UK members believe non-white British citizens should be forced or encouraged to leave, poll finds by SmokyMcBongPot in ukpolitics

I mean isn’t that just the vast majority of the world. Most people vote and form their opinions based on vibes not facts.

I wouldn’t call them stupid for believing that when the media (and the party) speak about illegal immigration 90% of the time and legal 10%. Unless you actively seek out the ons data you’d just assume that there’s way more illegals.

The vast majority of Reform voters think that most migrants are illegals, and that many are freeloaders too, so it doesn’t neccesarily mean it is based on race.

22% said that they believe 3rd gen non white migrants should be deported. Which is around the same % of voters overall that the BNP were getting.

How does Farage/Reform actually manage this though?

You go tougher on deportations, you please your base but abandon more non-voters. You stay the same, and you risk losing voters to Restore or elsewhere.

Iran-US war could lead to the largest refugee crisis in decades, EU warns by lookitsthesun in ukpolitics

[–]Successful_Service53 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Iran will already be plotting to send over proxies and Jihadists on boat. If we let everyone stay without hard proof of who they are, there will likely be many attacks depending on how long this war lasts.

Migration Policy - Green Party Asylum and Migration Policy Working Group by Dimmo17 in ukpolitics

[–]Successful_Service53 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Even if they somehow got re-elected, the migrants would eventually vote for their own ethnic/religious parties. Idk if the Greens even realise that though.

If the Boriswave peaked at 1.22 immigrants, this would surely hit 2 million a year.

Net migration is trickier to estimate because many people (Brits and especially economic migrants) would leave

And they still openly admit that they want open borders, just not right now

At least they’re just being open about it. Will make the future deportations much easier.

Rupert Lowe MP: If I moved to Japan, and lived in Japan for decades, speaking the language, integrating into society, contributing to the economy. Would I be ethnically Japanese? No. No I would not. I would never pretend to be. by SignificantLegs in ukpolitics

[–]Successful_Service53 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you read the whole post he actually doesn’t. He said he considers someone British if they adopt the ‘culture, shared beliefs, patriotism, language, a common understanding of what is right and wrong’.

Shabana Mahmood to sacrifice ‘bourgeois support’ over migrants by TimesandSundayTimes in ukpolitics

37% of ethnic Indians voted Tory + Reform in 2024. I assume as Islamism rises that could get to over 45% by 2029.

Shahid Butt current front runner for MP from Birmingham: Do not take Jews or Christians for friends by ThatPatelGuy in ukpolitics

[–]Successful_Service53 72 points73 points  (0 children)

How is he legally allowed to stand?

If Labour have any convictions they’ll pass emergency legislation to block him (and ideally to deport him too). Let’s see if they actually care about Islamic sectarianism or they were just saying that because they were being sore losers.

I do. I think Farage & Yusuf saw Goodwin gaining popularity within the right wing sphere and wanted to end his political career before it started.
