Scottish Conservative councillor defects to Reform

[The Scottish Conservative group leader on
Glasgow City Council has defected to Reform UK.

Thomas Kerr, who represents the Shettleston ward,
was first elected as a 20-year-old in 2017
and became Tory group leader in 2019.

He was the party's candidate at the
Rutherglen and Hamilton West by-election
in October 2023, but finished a distant third.

Kerr said he had been "annoyed and angry"
with the Conservatives for several months,
accusing the party of failing to
champion working-class communities
like those in Shettleston.

He said the Tories focused too much
on criticism of the SNP and "lacked a positive
vision of centre-right conservatism".

The councillor also suggested
Scottish Conservative leader
Russell Findlay was not in control
of the "broken" party.]

Reform UK will hold the "largest ever rally in modern British political history" in just under two months' time, Nigel Farage has said.

Thousands of supporters, candidates, party top brass and more will head to the Arena Birmingham on March 28 - and Farage has vowed that "we are only just getting started".

"Reform has all the momentum in British politics and we are only just getting started," the party leader said.

On Tuesday Reform held a fundraising event this week at Oswald’s, the private members’ club in Mayfair, where seats at the top table went for £25,000 a ticket.

It was attended by Mohamed Amersi and Bassim Haidar, two major Conservative donors.

Nick Candy, the billionaire property mogul and ex-Tory donor who is now the Reform treasurer, helped compère.

lol, highly unrealistic but who knows, I guess. Scotland turning back to yellow I do agree is an inevitability.

However to assess the accuracy of this single poll in any way, we'd need to know where it was shared. If it was only shared on this sort of X account in the first place, it's meaningless because it will disproportionately have reached a certain audience.

WHen are people actually going to properly wake up though? People voted out the Tories are voted in Labour because we're all desperate for some sort of meaningful change. What change has occurred? Absolutely fck all.

So now people are genuinely turning to Reform, thinking "Aha, this is who will REALLY make a meaningful change!"

But let's face it, if Reform was to sweep the board and come into power in 4 years time, what would realistically change in any meaningful way? Most likely, fck all again. The promises will come to absolutely nothing, just the same as Labour's.

All smoke and mirrors IMO.

Accused, that doesn't mean it's true.

I've no time at all for Reform, and rarely ever comment on here about them.
I think my views are pretty well known about Reform.

However it is odd this is coming forward now after he dared to say something fairly negative about Farage.
Which was fired at Richard Tice on Question Time last night by Fiona Bruce.

I don't know if this is true or not as to this bullying ' claim'.
So won't judge him on that

However at this moment in time, it doesn't smell right as to the timing it's revealed.

My suspicion would be that it's probably both. He probably is a misogynistic bully (I mean... he's a Reform MP...) but they probably turned a blind eye/did not give a stuff about that until he put a toe out of line, and then it became a convenient excuse.

It's not known if the allegations against Lowe are true yet.
That will be known in the future.

The current chairman of Reform doesn't come across as someone who couldn't deal with a bit of threatening.
IF that ever happened.

I can't stand Reform or any of their MPs.

However my own opinion would be that dealing with Farage would be as much a nightmare as trying to deal with or reason with Trump.
Narcissistic Farage doesn't come across as someone who'd tolerate much in the way of being challenged, being disagreed with or talked back to.
He usually thrives anyhow only on being divisive and creating distrust and suspicion about others, especially of other Countries and cultures.

Doubtful that their next conference will be small. They have twice the members the Cons have... More probably. The only people making statements like yours are people who've never supported them. If you want to know how popular they were at the last election don't look at how many MPs they ended up with, look at how many votes they got.

labour aren't doing anything that will stop the rise in reforms popularity at the moment. We live in very uncertain times, so i wouldn't dare speculate on how the next few years will pan out. The threat of war can change everything

[joeysteele]

But at Local Elections

We can see the Strength

I actually think they will do well at the local elections.
Local elections usually go against whoever is the government of the day.

The Lib Dems were riding high in 2010, with 23% of the vote in the general election.
They were in government in coalition.
Then in 2011 they were near wiped out in a good number of councils.

The local elections always normally have extremely small turnouts.
They aren't the best indicator of political standing, they can be one indicator but not often reliable.

In local elections, Independent candidates win in good numbers, even deciding who runs a council and sometimes running councils themselves.
However in general elections they get nothing like the support they get in local elections.

So with the Cons still in disarray, with a sadly poor leader like Badenoch who just is more running after UKIP MK3 ( re-Reform).
Then Labour looking at this moment in time as being hell-bent on ensuring Labour themselves lose the next election.
Sounding more like the Cons than anything Labour.
Plus the LibDems still really not moving much as to votes, since crashing in 2015.

I'd expect in that scenario, that Reform SHOULD do extremely well.
They should be able to clean up across the Country and they may well do so, who knows.

I personally hope not and will hate to see it because I wouldn't trust Farage and this his latest evolving of UKIP ever,not a chance.
Reform are NOT a new Party, They are UKIP under Farage MK3, the Brexit Party was UKIP under Farage MK2.
They're still the same, just seeking to create suspicion and distrust, even from probable prejudice by only being divisively destructive.

Cherie! You said 10,000 people and 8 per flat - that's 1,250 flats...

One positive thing you can say about Trump is that he has the best interests of America and Americans at the heart of what he does, unlike leaders in Europe generally and the UK in particular. People all over Europe have been forced to turn to parties on the right because their successive governments have ignored them. The cultures of European countries have been changed for ever by the influx of people from mainly the middle east, migrants are favoured over countries' indigenous populations, and they're seen to be favoured. Eleven thousand illegals have washed up on our shores in the last four months alone and they're all housed, cared for with medical and dental, given money and phones and trips out while our own homeless problem is all but ignored and survives on charity, and our pensioners were robbed of their winter fuel allowance while migrants are completely catered for. Labour has failed us and before them, the Tories failed us.

Actually he didn't, he indicated a possible alteration to thinking but .......

It is still the thinking of Reform to create a health service more based on private health insurance on the USA style.
Trump is still it seems determined to want the NHS made part of any trading deal.
Which he wants to benefit USA companies.

Farage has leanings to a more French system but the thinking of Reform is NOT to have a health service funded only by taxpayers.
Still favouring a USA style system.

If Reform were in government now, negotiating a trade deal with Trump in the USA..
Would you bet your house and savings on them NOT bowing down to Trump's demands for that change to the NHS.
Because I certainly wouldn't.
Farage as PM would be capitulating and more running up Trump's backside than Starmer currently is.

Joey he Confirmed NHS Free

He's just a Reform member arista.
He's not a Reform MP he was beaten in last year's election.

He WAS a deputy leader, until last year but once Farage took the leadership over from Tice as leader then Tice became deputy leader
Bull was then replaced by Tice.

He doesn't decide any policy now as you well know.
Would you bet your house and savings on Farage and Reform if they were in power now, not giving in to demands from Trump on OUR NHS in order to get the trade deal from him?
Because I say again, I certainly wouldn't.
I couldn't see Farage ever saying NO to Trump on just about anything.

It's clear as day disappointingly even now fur me with Labour
That what the representatives of Parties say is not what they mean when in power.
That's been so with the Conservatives and also now with Labour.
It won't be any different from Reform under Farage either.

[joeysteele]

So do I arista.
As you well know.

Look, Reform have solidly said the NHS has to change from it's core set up from being created.

There's been lots of re-organisation of it over the decades but never on part of it's core principle.
Which is, the NHS being FREE for ALL, at the point of need, through the need until no longer needed.

That's the only thing that hasn't changed.
So if Reform are saying it has to be changed from its core principle.
It's obvious the only core principle left is that's free for all at the point of need.

If Bull, ( seemingly a very appropriate name), is trying to say the core principle has to be changed..
It cannot be that it is to remain free for all at the point of need AND all through the need.

You can be fooled all you wish to be but I'm certainly not.
Farage especially with his hero worshipping of Trump certainly, in my view, shouldn't be trusted ever with our NHS.
The USA system of healthcare is absolutely awful.

It's interesting still though, you will not say you would bet your house and savings on Reform NOT creating a health service more in line with the USA.
I repeat again, I'd bet on them doing exactly that.

[Oliver_W]

No way

Where has he yet actually made a stand against Trump.
He's still a strong supporter of Trump.
Let's wait and see now the elections are over for a year.
Let's see where more of his time goes.

He lied and deceived all through the EU referendum.
His only real mantra is anti immigration.
In fact thats like a cult mantra of most Reform supporters to varying extremes.

Although quite why I'm posting on a Reform thread.I haven't a clue.
I've long given up expecting anything other than anti immigration prejudice from the Reform mob.
Nearly every Reform supporter I've talked to are always just quoting anti immigrant views.
Some in extremely concerning hate filled extreme ways too.
I want nothing to do with any of them..
Family, friend or foe

So I'll bow out of this thread and hope the UK tries to wake up and steps back from the divisive hate filled rhetoric of Reform.
I don't see any human beings on Earth as only unwanted or to be eradicated undesirable numbers.
No way could I allow myself to think that way.
Nor would I want to be associated in any way with that attitude either.

However yes, it looks like anything is now possible for Reform.
Unless both Labour and the Conservatives get better policies going.
Plus all other Parties unite to ensure this Reform mob have as little a chance as possible in future elections.

The thing is, the tories took policies from ukip to shore up their support several times. They worked with the DUP to get a majority, so it's not a new thing to take other parties policies.

However, with something like the NHS, they could easily change the scope or waiting time to make the NHS less attractive. Smoke and mirrors and all that

Benefits claims by households with at least one foreign national have doubled to nearly £1 billion a month in the past three years, government figures show.

Households with at least one claimant who is a foreign national received £941 million in March this year, up from £461 million in March 2022, representing nearly a sixth of the month’s Universal Credit payments.

The figures are likely to reinforce calls for restrictions on benefits for migrants, which Angela Rayner, the Deputy Prime Minister, urged Rachel Reeves to consider in a leaked memo seen by The Telegraph.

Experts suggested the increase reflected a surge in the number of asylum seekers being granted refugee status and in net migration.

Foreign nationals become eligible for Universal Credit and other benefits on the same terms as British citizens once they are granted either indefinite leave to remain or refugee status.

Yes,
They are Expensive for a Council.

They are not against Pride,
but saving good money matters

Not really - this council contributed less than £2k to Pride. It's kind of bas business because pride is an event that brings people into a city centre, spending money on public transport or parking, in shops, restaurants and in bars, etc... so it's good, economically. However it's not a huge issue, because they donated so little, which will be made up in other ways.

New Reform chair David Bull calls for return of death penalty


Dr David Bull also called for burqas to be banned in the UK

Dr David Bull, a former medical doctor, has said he would support the return of
capital punishment for criminals such as Axel Rudakabana, who murdered three
girls in a mass stabbing at a children’s dance class in Southport.

He added: “I don't like seeing people in burqas. I feel particularly in East
London, where I live, it certainly has divided the community. We've got a whole
swathes of people not even speaking English, which I just think is not
acceptable.”

Zia Yusuf is planning to run for a seat in Parliament after rejoining Reform UK.

[Oliver_W]

So he went from leaving because devoting his life to Reform's cause was no longer a good use of his time
... to returning (albeit in different role) and wanting to run as an MP?

Unless it was just a hissyfit where he threw his toys out of the pram and regretted it immediately after ... or there's an interesting story behind it all.

Tory MPs defecting to Reform aren’t making some noble stand, they’re scavengers crawling from one rancid carcass to another. After years of wrecking lives and lining their pockets, they’re desperate to slap a new label on their filth. It’s not conviction. It’s the final pathetic gasp of relevance from people who’d sell this country out twice over if it kept them in the spotlight.

I definitely think Reform are going to develop similar issues as the Tories, if they keep taking their current cra-I mean crop into their party.

not taking Labour voters

True, but Starmer makes himself look pathetic with his constant snipes at Farage.

I suppose BoJo means that they should be saying "vote for us because" rather then "don't vote for them, they're icky!"

[bots]

my prediction is that Boris will stand in a byelection in a safe tory seat and become leader again, then all bets are off. It's pretty obvious at this point that is the plan

Reforms James McMurdock MP

Has had to stand down
as he is in the Newspapers tomorrow.

Has removed his own Whip


Live : GBnewsHD

[arista]

From the DT online

[A Reform MP has left the party amid allegations
surrounding his “business propriety during the pandemic”.
James McMurdock, the MP for South Basildon
and East Thurrock, will sit as an independent
in the Commons while the claims are investigated.

Lee Anderson, Reform’s chief whip, said:
“I have today received a call from James McMurdock
who has advised me, as chief whip,
that he has removed the party whip from
himself pending the outcome of an investigation
into allegations that are likely to be published
by a national newspaper.

“The allegations relate to business propriety during
the pandemic and before he became an MP.

“At Reform UK we take these matters very
seriously and James has agreed to cooperate
in full with any investigation.

“We will not be commenting further
at this moment.”
