Comment on Reform UK pulls to within two points of Tories in latest YouGov poll
undergroundoverground@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoAs wonderful a sweeping statement as “the left have lost their mind” (said no one who would ever vote left ever) is, its pretty laughable that anyone thinks the corporatist reform party would ever actually lower immigration.
I mean, literally all of the left leaning parties have said they will lower immigration but don’t let that ruin the narrative.

I have exclusively only voted left actually.
The left aren’t doing enough, the Tories have proven they haven’t done enough. That’s why reform makes sense because it sends a message about how much immigration needs to be reduced.

Course you did and it’s their fault youre voting farrage too…
“Da left” haven’t done anything at all, seeing as they haven’t been in power for over 2 decades. Thats why your claim makes no sense.
Oh, it makes you send a message alright. Although, its not the one you think you’re sending.

Why would I lie about voting for the left?
I have economically left views. But it’s I don’t think the left are planning to do enough.
There is nothing wrong with anything I said. Just you can’t accept people have different opinions to you so all you think is that I must be lying.

To normalise the idea that people who once voted "for the left ^^^tm " now voting for a hard right reform party. Because you’re bored. Because it seemed funny. Who knows, why does anyone lie?
So, as “the left” aren’t meeting your left wing economic planning expectations, you decided to go with a party who have NO left leaning economic plans. Well, id love to hear how you plan to square that circle.
Of course I can accept that people have different opinions to me. What a silly thing to say. No, sadly, its that it sounds like bollocks and it doesn’t hold up to any scrutiny, is all.

Congratulations on being black.
But there isn’t much I can do to convince you to be black or not so it is irrelevant.
Seeing as we are talking about views and information. Then views are are relevant.

I am calling horseshit on you being “a leftie.”
I’m sorry it wasn’t blunt enough the first time.
‘I’d always support [blank], but now they’ve nonspecifically gone too far! so I’m voting for the complete opposite’ is fascist propaganda. What’s it doing in your mouth, comrade?
